Using an example, explain how small atoms are.

1 answer:

4 0

Unlike a ball, an atom doesn't have a fixed radius. The radius of an atom can only be found by measuring the distance between the nuclei of two touching atoms, and then halving that distance... Does that answer your question?

What is the area called where the particles are spread apart?

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer: Because of the longitudinal motion of the air particles, there are regions in the air where the air particles are compressed together and other regions where the air particles are spread apart. These regions are known as compressions and rarefactions respectively

Human-Powered Flight Human-powered aircraft require a pilot to pedal, as in a bicycle, and produce a sustained power output of a

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

# of Snickers bars 2

Explanation:

Power output= 0.30 HP

=0.3*746

= 0.30 HP (746 W=1.00 HP)

= 224 W

time required 2 h 49 m = 10140 seconds

Since power is work divided by time, then work is:

Work done by the jet = P*t

= 224 *(10140)

= 2.3 MJ (2.3 x $10^{6}$ J)

Converting MJ to Cal

2.3 MJ=549 Cal

# of Snickers bars = 549 Cal / 280 Cal

= 2.0 bars (rounded from 1.96)

How fast, in rpm, would a 5.6 kg, 25-cm-diameter bowling ball have to spin to have an angular momentum of 0.26 kgm2/s

solong [7]

Answer:

71 rpm

Explanation:

Given that:

Angular momentum (L) = 0.26

Diameter = 25cm = 0.25 cm

Radius, r = (d/2) = 0.125m

Mass = 5.6 kg

Moment of inertia (I) = 2mr² / 5

I = (2 * 5.6 * 0.125^2) / 5

= 0.175

= 0.175 / 5

= 0.035 kgm²

Angular speed (w) ;

w = L / I

w = 0.26 / 0.035

= 7.4285714

= 7.429 rad/s

w = (7.429 * 60/2π)

w = 445.74 / 2π rpm

w = 70.941724

Angular speed = 70.94 rpm

= 71 rpm

The magnetic field a distance 2 cm from a long straight current-carrying wire is 2 × 10–5 t. the current in the wire is:

Sliva [168]

Current in the wire = 2 A

Explanation:

the magnetic field is given by

B= \frac{\mu i}{2\pi r}

μo= 4π x 10⁻⁷ Tm/A

i= current

r=0.02 m

B = magnetic field= 2 x 10⁻⁵ T

2 x 10⁻⁵= (4π x 10⁻⁷)(i) / (2π*0.02)

i=2 A

You are asked to design a cylindrical steel rod 50.0 cm long, with a circular cross section, that will conduct 170.0 J/s from a

zepelin [54]

Answer:

You are asked to design a cylindrical steel rod 50.0 cm long, with a circular cross section, that will conduct 170.0 J/s from a furnace at 350.0 ∘C to a container of boiling water under 1 atmosphere.

Explanation:

Given Values:

L = 50 cm = 0.5 m

H = 170 j/s

To find the diameter of the rod, we have to find the area of the rod using the following formula.

Here Tc = 100.0° C

k = 50.2

H = k × A × $\frac{[T_{H -}T_{C} ] }{L}$
