Answer:

2.2 x 10^-14 N

Explanation:

q = - 1.6 x 10^-19 C

E = 1.4 x 10^5 N/C

The force on a charged particle placed in an electric field is given by

F = q x E

F = - 1.6 x 10^-19 x 1.4 x 10^5 = - 2.24 x 10^-14 N

F = - 2.2 x 10^-14 N

What is the base number for the metric system of units? In other words, by what number do we multiply to move up in scale ? ____

Andru [333]

Answer:

10

Explanation:

Each time you want to move up the scale, the number is multiplied by 10. The opposite is true when moving down; you must divide by 10.

An object weighs 63.8 N in air. When it is suspended from a force scale and completely immersed in water the scale reads 16.8 N.

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

The density of this object is approximately $1.36\; {\rm kg \cdot L^{-1}}$ .

The density of the oil in this question is approximately $0.600\; {\rm kg \cdot L^{-1}}$ .

(Assumption: the gravitational field strength is $g =9.806\; {\rm N \cdot kg^{-1}}$ )

Explanation:

When the gravitational field strength is $g$ , the weight $(\text{weight})$ of an object of mass $m$ would be $m\, g$ .

Conversely, if the weight of an object is $(\text{weight})$ in a gravitational field of strength $g$ , the mass $m$ of that object would be $m = (\text{weight}) / g$ .

Assuming that $g =9.806\; {\rm N \cdot kg^{-1}}$ . The mass of this $63.8\; {\rm N}$ -object would be:

$\begin{aligned} \text{mass} &= \frac{\text{weight}}{g} \\ &= \frac{63.8\; {\rm N}}{9.806\; {\rm N \cdot kg^{-1}}} \\ &\approx 6.506\; {\rm kg}\end{aligned}$ .

When an object is immersed in a liquid, the buoyancy force on that object would be equal to the weight of the liquid that was displaced. For instance, since the object in this question was fully immersed in water, the volume of water displaced would be equal to the volume of this object.

When this object was suspended in water, the buoyancy force on this object was $(63.8\; {\rm N} - 16.8\; {\rm N}) = 47.0\; {\rm N}$ . Hence, the weight of water that this object displaced would be $47.0 \; {\rm N}$ .

The mass of water displaced would be:

$\begin{aligned}\text{mass} &= \frac{\text{weight}}{g} \\ &= \frac{47.0\: {\rm N}}{9.806\; {\rm N \cdot kg^{-1}}} \\ &\approx 4.793\; {\rm kg}\end{aligned}$ .

The volume of that much water (which this object had displaced) would be:

$\begin{aligned}\text{volume} &= \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{density}} \\ &\approx \frac{4.793\; {\rm kg}}{1.00\; {\rm kg \cdot L^{-1}}} \\ &\approx 4.793\; {\rm L}\end{aligned}$ .

Since this object was fully immersed in water, the volume of this object would be equal to the volume of water displaced. Hence, the volume of this object is approximately $4.793\; {\rm L}$ .

The mass of this object is $6.50\; {\rm kg}$ . Hence, the density of this object would be:

$\begin{aligned} \text{density} &= \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{volume}} \\ &\approx \frac{6.506\; {\rm kg}}{4.793\; {\rm L}} \\ &\approx 1.36\; {\rm kg \cdot L^{-1}} \end{aligned}$ .

(Rounded to $\text{$3$ sig. fig.}$ )

Similarly, since this object was fully immersed in oil, the volume of oil displaced would be equal to the volume of this object: approximately $4.793\; {\rm L}$ .

The weight of oil displaced would be equal to the magnitude of the buoyancy force: $63.8\; {\rm N} - 35.6\; {\rm N} = 28.2\; {\rm N}$ .

The mass of that much oil would be:

$\begin{aligned}\text{mass} &= \frac{\text{weight}}{g} \\ &= \frac{28.2\: {\rm N}}{9.806\; {\rm N \cdot kg^{-1}}} \\ &\approx 2.876\; {\rm kg}\end{aligned}$ .

Hence, the density of the oil in this question would be:

$\begin{aligned} \text{density} &= \frac{\text{mass}}{\text{volume}} \\ &\approx \frac{2.876\; {\rm kg}}{4.793\; {\rm L}} \\ &\approx 0.600\; {\rm kg \cdot L^{-1}} \end{aligned}$ .

A student performs a reaction twice. In the second trial, she raises the temperature by 20¨¬C and notices that the reaction take

Lerok [7]

Answer: She is incorrect to conclude that the reaction is endothermic.

As in the second trial, the temperature has increased by 20 °C , that means the heat has been released and energy is released in exothermic reactions.

Exothermic reactions: The reactions in which the energy of the products is less than the energy of the reactants, and the excess energy is released as heat.

Endothermic reactions: The reactions in which the energy of the products is more than the energy of the reactants, and the excess energy is absorbed as heat.

A tray of electronic components contains 15 components, 4 of which are defective. If 4 components are selected, what is the poss

dlinn [17]

Answer:

a) 0.0007326

b) 0.03223

c) 0.2418

d) 0.2418

Explanation:

To find different probabilities for the selection of components among eleven good and four defective components, we will use the Combination.

a) $C(4,4) = 1; C(15,4) = 1365$

$P = \frac{C(4,4)}{C(15,4)} = \frac{1}{1365} = 0.0007326$

b) $C(4,3) = 4; C(11,1) = 11$

$P = \frac{C(4,3)*C(11,1)}{C(15,4)} = \frac{4*11}{1365} = 0.03223$

c) $C(4,2) = 6; C(11,2) = 55$

$P = \frac{C(4,2)*C(11,2)}{C(15,4)} = \frac{6*55}{1365} = 0.2418$

d) $C(11,4) = 330$

$P = \frac{C(11,4)}{C(15,4)} = \frac{330}{1365} = 0.2418$
