9. How does the length of the hypotenuse in a right triangle relate to the lengths of the legs? (2 points)

2 answers:

6 0

The pythagorean theorem addresses the length of the hypotenuse in relation to the length of the legs. The square root of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of one leg squared plus the other leg squared. In other words, A squared plus B squared equals C squared where A and B are the lengths of the legs of the triangle and C is the length of the hypotenuse.

Answer:

hypotenuse² = base² +height²

Explanation:

Let us suppose a right angled triangle having b as base, h as hypotenuse and p as perpendicular distance.

The relation between the length of legs, the base and the hypotenuse is called Pythagoras theorem. It is given by :

$h^2=b^2+p^2$

hypotenuse² = base² +height²

two electrons are an angstrom (1x10^-10m) apart. What electrostatic force do they exert on one another?

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

2.30 × 10⁻⁸ N if the two electrons are in a vacuum.

Explanation:

The Coulomb's Law gives the size of the electrostatic force $F$ between two charged objects:

$\displaystyle F = -\frac{k\cdot q_1 \cdot q_2}{r^{2}}$ ,

where

$k$ is coulomb's constant. $k = 8.99\times 10^{8}\;\text{N}\cdot\text{m}^{2}\cdot\text{C}^{-2}$ in vacuum.
$q_1$ and $q_2$ are the signed charge of the objects.
$r$ is the distance between the two objects.

For the two electrons:

$q_1 = q_2 = 1.60\times 10^{-19}\;\text{C}$ .
$r = 1\times 10^{-10}\;\text{m}$ .

$\displaystyle F = -\frac{k\cdot q_1 \cdot q_2}{r^{2}} = -\frac{8.99\times 10^{8}\times (1.60\times 10^{-19})^{2}}{(1\times 10^{-10})^{2}} = 2.30\times 10^{-8}\;\text{N}$ .

The sign of $F$ is negative. In other words, the two electrons repel each other since the signs of their charges are the same.

Which force prevents protons from repelling each other inside a nucleus?

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

So, the correct answer is the strong nuclear force. It actually pulls together nuetrons and protons that are in the nucleus. At very tiny distances only, like those inside the nucleus, so, this strong force succeded in dealing with the electromagnetic force, and it basically stops the electrical repulsion of protons from blowing apart the nucleus.
