Which of the following nuclei is most stable based on its binding energy?

Anettt [7]3 years ago

We have that the most stable nuclei are the ones with the highest average binding energy. We see that Nitrogen has a mass number of 15 and that in this region of the graph average binding energy is low. Silver and Gold are along a line where there is a constant decline in average binding energy; silver has more than gold. However, we see that at the start of this decline, there is Fe 56. This region has the elements with the highest average binding energy; Nickel with a mass number of 58 is right there and thus it is the most stable nucleus out of the listed ones.

An electron experiences a magnetic force with a magnitude of 4.90×10−15 n when moving at an angle of 60.0 ∘ with respect to a ma

Leya [2.2K]

Missing questions: "find the speed of the electron".

Solution:
the magnetic force experienced by a charged particle in a magnetic field is given by
$F=qvB \sin \theta$
where
q is the particle charge
v its velocity
B the magnitude of the magnetic field
$\theta$ the angle between the directions of v and B.

Re-arranging the formula, we find:
$v= \frac{F}{qB \sin \theta}$
and by substituting the data of the problem (the charge of the electron is $q=1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C$ ), we find the velocity of the electron:
$v= \frac{F}{qB \sin \theta}= \frac{4.90 \cdot 10^{-15}N}{(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C)(3.70 \cdot 10^{-3} T)(\sin 60^{\circ})}=9.56 \cdot 10^6 m/s$

A speeding car collides with an unlucky bug flying across the road. Which explains why the impact doesn’t equally damage the car

velikii [3]

The bug was a lot smaller than the car, that's for sure. The car is bigger and sturdier, while the bug is smaller and frail. The bug is so frail, that rather that putting a dent in the car, it splatters all over the car. The bug is very damaged (obviously), while the car just needs a good wash.

A block is balanced on top of a frictionless sphere of radius R. When the block is given a slight nudge it starts to slide down

Nataly_w [17]

Answer: $\frac{R}{3}$

Explanation:

Given

Sphere of Radius R

Suppose mass of block is m

At any instant \theta Normal reaction(N) and weight(mg) is acting such that

$mg\sin \theta -N=\frac{mv^2}{R}$ , where v is velocity of block at any angle \theta

When block is just about to leave then N=0

therefore

$mg\sin \theta =\frac{mv^2}{R}$

$v^2=gR\sin \theta$ -------------------1

Also by conserving Energy we get

Potential Energy=kinetic Energy of block

$mgh=\frac{mv^2}{2}$

here h=vertical distance traveled by block

From diagram

$h=R-R\sin \theta$

$h=R(1-\sin \theta )$

$mgR(1-\sin \theta )=\frac{mv^2}{2}$

$2gR(1-\sin \theta )=v^2$ -----------------2

From 1 and 2

$2(1-\sin \theta )=\sin \theta$

$3\sin \theta =2$

$\sin \theta =\frac{2}{3}$

Thus from this value of h is

$h=R(1-\sin \theta )$

$h=R(1-\frac{2}{3})$

$h=\frac{R}{3}$

Which lists the main components of Darwin’s theory of evolution?

Nataliya [291]

Hi!

The correct option is B.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Evolution is a biological phenomena which descries how the heritable characteristics of a species change over successive generations. These characteristics change as a result of a mutation, natural selection or genetic recombination (to list a few).

Darwin's theory of evolution explained how this phenomena occurs with respect to natural selection. The theory goes on to explain how a species diverges from a common ancestor into two or more different species (meaning different species may have common ancestor). This is a slow process as it can take thousands of years.

Hope this helps!
