Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

the correct answer is B

Explanation:

The kinetic model of the movement describes that the movement of the molecules increases with the increase of their internal energy, which in a macroscopic sample is reflected in an increase in the temperature of the sample.

The sample graph shows the function of temperature over time, which is why our kinetic model establishes that there is an increase in the movement of water molecules.

Consequently the correct answer is B

If light moves from left to right along the x-axis, then the electric field line vibrates along what?? :(

sasho [114]

All you can say about it is that it then vibrates perpendicular to the x-axis. But that could be up and down parallel to the y-axis, in and out parallel to the z-axis, or some of it in every possible direction perpendicular to the x-axis. We "polarize" the light when we want to pick out only one perpendicular direction and stop all the others.

The edge of a flying disc with a radius of 0.13 m spins with a tangential speed of 3.3 m/s. The centripetal acceleration of the

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Centripetal acceleration = 83.77m/s²

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Radius, r = 0.13m

Velocity, v = 3.3m/s

To find centripetal acceleration;

Centripetal acceleration is given by the formula;

$Acceleration, a = \frac {v^{2}}{r}$

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$Centripetal \; acceleration, a = \frac {3.3^{2}}{0.13}$

$Centripetal \; acceleration, a = \frac {10.89}{0.13}$

Centripetal acceleration = 83.77m/s²

Therefore, the centripetal acceleration of the edge of the disc is 83.77 m/s².

An electron moves through a uniform electric field vector E = (2.80î + 5.20ĵ) V/m and a uniform magnetic field vector B = 0.400k

alina1380 [7]

Answer:

1.758820×10^11(-2.5i-0.8j) m/s^2

Explanation:

From the question, the parameters given are; E=(2.80i+ 5.20j) v/m, a uniform magnetic field,B= 0.400K T, acceleration, a= ??? and velocity vector, v= 11.0i metre per seconds (m/s)...

We can solve this problem using the formula below;

Ma= q[E+V × B] ---------------(1).

Note: q is negative, m= mass of electron.

Making acceleration,a the subject of the formula and substituting the parameters into equation (1);

a= -e/m × (2.5i + 5.2j +11.0i × 0.400K)

a= -e/m × (2.5i+5.2j-4.4j)

a= e/m × (-2.5i - 0.8j)

e/m= 1.758820×10^11 c/kg

Therefore, slotting in the value of charge to mass(e/m) ratio;

a= 1.7588×10^11×(-2.5i-0.8j) m/s^2
