What is the smallest unit of a substance that keeps all of the physical and chemical properties of that substance?

Molecules is the smallest unit of a substance that keeps all of the physical and chemical properties of that substance. It is a group of atoms bounded together, and it can participate in a chemical reaction/

A 80 kg parent and a 20 kg child meet at the center of an ice rink. They place their hands together and push. The parent pushes

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

force acting on the parent = 25 N .

Explanation:

According to third law of Newton , there is equal and opposite reaction to every action . Here force by the parent on child is action and the force by child on parent is reaction . The former is given as 25 N so force by child on parent will also be 25 N .

Answer is 25 N .

Explain why it is important that the balloon is made from an electrical insulator.

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Explanation:

object made of rubber, such as the ballons are elecrical insulators, meaning that they resist electric charges flowing through them..

when the ballon has been rubbed enough times to gain a sufficient negative charge, it will be attracted to the wall

For the answer to the question above,
we can get the number of fringes by dividing (delta t) by the period of the light (Which is λ/c).

fringe = (delta t) / (λ/c)

We can find (delta t) with the equation:

delta t = [v^2(L1+L2)]/c^3

Derivation of this formula can be found in your physics text book. From here we find (delta t):

600,000^2 x (11+11) / [(3x10^8)^3] = 2.93x10^-13

2.93x10^-13/ (589x10^-9 / 3x10^8) = 149 fringes

This answer is correct but may seem large. That is because of your point of reference with the ether which is usually at rest with respect to the sun, making v = 3km/s.

The current in a single-loop circuit with one resistance R is 6.3 A. When an additional resistance of 3.4 Ω is inserted in serie

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

10.15Ω

Explanation:

From ohm's law,

V = IR...................... Equation 1

Where V = Voltage, I = current, R = resistance.

Assume the voltage across the resistance = V,

Given: I = 6.3 A

Substitute into equation 1

V = 6.3R.................. Equation 2

When an additional resistance of 3.4 Ω is inserted in series with R,

The voltage remain the same, but the current changes

Total Resistance(Rt) = (R+3.4)Ω, I' = 4.72 A

Also from ohm' law,

V = I'Rt............... Equation 3

Substitute the value of I' and Rt into equation 3

V = 4.72(R+3.4)............... Equation 5.

Divide equation 2 by equation 5

V/V = 6.3R/4.72(R+3.4)

1 = 1.335R/(R+3.4)

R+3.4 = 1.335R

3.4 = 1.335R-R

3.4 = 0.335R

R = 3.4/0.335

R = 10.15Ω
