Answer:

James Prescott Joule

James Prescott Joule, (born December 24, 1818, Salford, Lancashire [now in Greater Manchester], England—died October 11, 1889, Sale, Cheshire), English physicist who established that the various forms of energy—mechanical, electrical, and heat—are basically the same and can be changed one into another.James Prescott Joule experimented with engines, electricity and heat throughout his life. Joule's findings resulted in his development of the mechanical theory of heat and Joule's law, which quantitatively describes the rate at which heat energy is produced from electric energy by the resistance in a circuit.

An electron (charge −e=−1.60×10−19C−e=−1.60×10−19C) is at rest at a distance 1.00×10−10 m 1.00×10−10m from the center of a nucle

Answer:

$-9.45\times10^{-16} \text{ J}$

Explanation:

According to Coulomb's law, the force of attraction between two point charges, $q_1$ and $q_2$ , separated by a distance $d$ is given by

$F = k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{d^2}$

$k$ is a constant with a value of $9\times10^9\text{ F/m}$ .

When we substitute the values from the question,

$F = (9\times10^9\text{ F/m})\dfrac{(-1.60\times10^{-19} \text{ C})\times(+1.31\times10^{-17}\text{ C})}{(1.00\times10^{-10}\text{ m})^2} = -1.89\times10^{-6} \text{ N}$

This value is negative because it is in a direction towards the positive charge.

The work done in moving the electron from the nucleus is

$W = F\times r$

$W = (-1.89\times 10^{-6} \text{ N})\times(5.00\times10^{-10}\text{ m}) = -9.45\times10^{-16} \text{ J}$

This is negative because work is done on the electron, not by it.

If hydrogen and helium are the most abundant elements in the unoverse , then why are living organisms composed primarily of carb

Mumz [18]

Answer:

Most of materia isnt life.

Explanation:

The living organisms (life) aren't the most abundant thing in universe.

Hydrogen and helium are present in everywhere, but life isn't.

There is no reason to think because we have a lot of a thing, the life must be made for this thing.

The organic life just can exists because some mysterious properties about carbon, that is the basic foundation of life, carbon is a special element, why? We don't know, actually, it's a huge problem for science discover why the carbon can makes life be possible and other elements can't. But we know is this element that makes life possible.

So, note there isn't relation about the quantity of a material in Universe and the life constituition. In addition, look around, organic materials are very rare in Universe, Earth is one in lots of places and in most of this places there isn't sign of life.

Even in Earth the life looks abundant, in Universe it isn't, the same way in Universe the Hydrogen and Helium are abudant, in Earth isn't soo.

What is the current flowing through a 10 resistor in a parallel circuit with a 120 V potential difference across it?

Elena L [17]

Answer:

let current flow be x

Explanation:

than we know potential difference = energy supply / charge then 120 = 10 /x then x=12 therefore pd = 12 v
