Answer:

D. 2.5 V

Explanation:

Electric potential of a point in space is a scalar magnitude that allows a measurement of the electric field at that point to be obtained through the electrostatic potential energy that a electric charge would acquire if it is placed at that point.

Why might some rivers form canyons and other form valleys??

kap26 [50]

Valleys are one of the most common landforms on the Earth and they are formed through erosion or the gradual wearing down of the land by wind and water. In river valleys for example, the river acts as an erosional agent by grinding down the rock or soil and creating a valley

What is the direction of the field halfway between two horizontal parallel wires if the top wire has a current of 4 A to the lef

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

A) Out of the page.

Explanation:

Right-hand rule points the direction of the magnetic field at any point.

<u>Top wire</u>: Current is to the left. Point your thumb to the left and curl your other fingers around the wire. The tips of the four fingers points the direction of the field at that point. In this case, out of the page.

<u>Bottom wire</u>: Current is to the right. Point your thumb to the right and curl your other fingers around the wire. The tips of the four finger points out of the page again.

So, the total field produced by both wires is directed out of the page.

Another method to figure out the direction is the mathematical method.

Use the B-field formula:

$d\vec{B} = \frac{\mu_0}{4\pi}\frac{Id\vec{l}\times \^r}{r^2}$

The cross product between the direction of the current and the target position gives the direction of the B-field. If the left is -x direction and downwards is the -y direction, then

$(-\^x) \times (-\^y) = +\^z$ for the top wire.

$(+\^x) \times (+\^y) = +\^z$ for the bottom wire.

Why is it necessary to centrifuge out any precipitate formed in the unknown solution and continue testing the remaining unknown

jonny [76]

Answer:

Precipitation is the formation of a solid from a solution. It is necessary to centrifuge the precipitate to exert sufficient forces of gravity to bring the solid particles in the solution to come together and settle

Explanation:

When you centrifuge precipitate it enables the nucleation to form.

Centrifuging the precipitate helps in determining whether a certain element is present in a solution or not.

Compute the expected shell-model quadrupole moment of 209Bi () and compare with the experimental value, - 0.37 b

Over [174]

Answer:

0.22 b

Explanation:

Quadrupole moment of the nucleon is,

$Q=-\frac{2j-1}{2(j+1)}\frac{3}{5}R^{2}$

And also,

$R^{2}=R^{2} _{0}A^{\frac{2}{3} }$

And, $R _{0}=1.2\times 10^{-15}m$

Now,

$Q=-\frac{2j-1}{2(j+1)}\frac{3}{5}R^{2} _{0}A^{\frac{2}{3} }$

For Bismuth $j=\frac{9}{2}$ and A is 209.

$Q=-\frac{2\frac{9}{2} -1}{2(\frac{9}{2} +1)}\frac{3}{5}(1.2\times 10^{-15}) ^{2}(209)^{\frac{2}{3} }\\Q=0.628\times 35.28\times 10^{-30} \\Q=22.15\times 10^{-30} m^{2} \\Q=0.2215\times 10^{-28} m^{2} \\Q=0.22 barn$

Therefore, the expected value of quadrupole is 0.22 b which is quite related with experimental value which is 0.37 b
