a 6-kg and a 4-kg ball are acted on by forces of equal size. if the large ball accelerates at 2 m/s2 what acceleration will the

small ball undergo

To answer this question, we need to find the force acting on the two objects.

f=ma
f=(6)(2)
f=12 newtons

So, now we can determine the acceleration of the second object using the same formula!

f=ma
12=(4)a
3=a

So the acceleration of the smaller object is 3 meters per second squared!

Through what potential difference would you need to accelerate an alpha particle, starting from rest, so that it will just reach
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

\Delta V    = 1.8 \times 10^7 V

Explanation:

GIVEN

diameter = 15 fm  =15 \times 10^{-15}m

we use here energy conservation

K_{i}+U_{i} =K_{f}+U_{f}

there will be some initial kinetic  energy but after collision kinetic energy will zero

K_{i} + 0 = 0 + \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon _{0}} \frac{(2e)(92e)}{7.5 \times 10^{-15}}

on solving these equations we get kinetic energy initial

KE_{i} = 5.65\times 10 ^{-12} \times \frac  {1 eV}{1.6 \times 10^{-19}}

KE_{i} = 35.33 J ..............(i)

That is, the alpha particle must be fired with 35.33 MeV of kinetic energy. An alpha particle with charge q = 2  e

and gains kinetic energy K  =e∆V  ..........(ii)

 by accelerating through a potential difference ∆V

Thus the alpha particle will

just reach the {238}_U nucleus after being accelerated through a potential difference  ∆V

equating (i) and second equation we get

e∆V  = 35.33 Me V

\Delta V = \frac{35.33}{2}  MV\\\Delta V    = 1.8 \times 10^7 V

If an atom has an atomic number of 2, it will be stable with 2 electrons in its valence shell. Group of answer choices True Fals
torisob [31]

Answer: True

Explanation:

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or the number of electrons that are present in an electrically neutral atom.

Atomic number = Number of protons = number of electrons = 2

Electronic configuration represents the total number of electrons that a neutral element contains. We add all the superscripts to know the number of electrons in an atom.

The electronic configuration will be 1s^2

As its duplet is already complete and it has noble gas configuration , it is stable with 2 valence electrons.

Energy is conventionally measured in Calories as well as in joules. One Calorie in nutrition is one kilocalorie, defined as 1 kc
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

a) The student must run flight of stairs to lose 1.00 kg of fat 709.5 times.

b) Average power

P(w)= 1062.07 [w]

P(hp)=1.42 [hp]

c) This activity is highly unpractical, because the high amount of repetitions he has to due in order to lose, just 1 Kg of fat.

Explanation:

First, lets consider the required amount of work to move the mass of the student. (considering running stairs just as a vertical movement)

Work:

W= F*d= m*g*d

Where m is the mass of the student, g is gravity (9.8 m/s) and d is the total distance going up the stairs (0.15m *85steps= 12.75m )

W= F*d= m*g*d=85* 9.8*12.75=10620.75 [J]

Converting from Joules to Kcals:

\frac{10620.75}{4186} =2.537 Kcal

Now lets take into account the efficiency of the human body (20%)

2.537 ---> 20%

 x       ---> 100%

x=\frac{2.537*100}{20} =12.685

So the student is consuming 12.685 KCals each time he runs up the stairs.

Now,

1 g --> 9 Kcals

1000 g --> 9000KCals

Burning 1 g of fat, requieres 9 KCals, 1000g burns 9000KCals. So in order to burn a 1Kg of fat:

\frac{9000Kcals}{12.685Kcals} =709.5 times

He must run up the stairs 709.5 times, to burn 1 Kg of fat.

********************

For b) just converting units, taking into account the time lapse. (53103.75 is the 100% of the energy in joules, from converting 12.685Kcals to joules)

Power=\frac{Joules}{Seconds} =\frac{53103.75}{50} =1062.075 [W]\\

P(hp)=\frac{P(w)}{745.7} =\frac{1062.075}{745.7} =1.42[hp]

Why do intrusive igneous rocks have large crystals?
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
The magma cools very slowly so that the crystals of different minerals have time to grow. The magma molecules in have time to organize themselves into crystal formations before the magma hardens. The naked eye helps the Intrusive rocks that has large crystals be seen.
