Would the springs inside a bathroom scale be more compressed or less compressed if you weighed yourself in an elevator that was

moving upward at constant velocity

More compressed. moving up = apparent weight (i.e., your norma force) is greater. this means you’ll weighr more and push those springs down even more than you would at rest.

A coin released at rest from the top of a tower hits the ground after falling 1.5 s. What is the speed of the coin as it hits th
Inessa05 [86]

initially coin is at rest and then it drop for total time t = 1.5 s

so here the speed of the coin at which it will hit the floor is to be find

v_f = v_i + at

here we know that

v_i = 0

a = 9.8 m/s^2

t = 1.5 s

now from above equation

v_f = 0 + 1.5 (9.8)

v_f = 14.7 m/s

so it will hit the floor with speed 14.7 m/s

Answer:

E = 12640.78 N/C

Explanation:

In order to calculate the electric field you can use the Gaussian theorem.

Thus, you have:

\Phi_E=\frac{Q}{\epsilon_o}

ФE: electric flux trough the Gaussian surface

Q: net charge inside the Gaussian surface

εo: dielectric permittivity of vacuum = 8.85*10^-12 C^2/Nm^2

If you take the Gaussian surface as a spherical surface, with radius r, the electric field is parallel to the surface anywhere. Then, you have:

\Phi_E=EA=E(4\pi r^2)=\frac{Q}{\epsilon_o}\\\\E=\frac{Q}{4\pi \epsilon_o r^2}

r can be taken as the distance in which you want to calculate the electric field, that is, 0.795m

Next, you replace the values of the parameters in the last expression, by taking into account that the net charge inside the Gaussian surface is:

Q=7.53*10^{-6}C+3.65*10^{-6}C=1.115*10^{-5}C

Finally, you obtain for E:

E=\frac{1.118*10^{-5}C}{4\pi (8.85*10^{-12C^2/Nm^2})(0.795m)^2}=12640.78\frac{N}{C}

hence, the electric field at 0.795m from the center of the spherical shell is 12640.78 N/C

Could You Take 2 Elements From The Periodic Table Of Elements, and possibly make one of other 116 elements that are on the table
LekaFEV [45]
That's what stars do all the time. 
For example, in the sun (and MOST other stars), deep down in the center
of the sun's core, two atoms of Hydrogen get squashed together so hard
that they blend into one atom of Helium AND release some energy. 
That's where the sun's energy all comes from.  It's called "nuclear fusion". 
It needs tremendous temperature and pressure to happen.  We know how
to do it, but we can't control it.  So far, the only thing we've ever been able
to use it for is Hydrogen bombs.   

There are 92 elements on the Periodic Table that are found in nature,
plus another 20 or so that have been made in the laboratory, but only
a few atoms of them.
