Answer:

Explanation:

We put the charges in the ascending order as follows

1.53 P

3.26 P

4.66 P

5.09 P

6.39 P

where P is equal to 10⁻¹⁹

we round off given charges as follows

1.53 P → 1.6 P

3.26 P → 3.2 P

4.66 P → 4.8 P

5.09 P → 4.8 P

6.39 P → 6.4 P

We see that 2 nd to 4 th charges are integral multiples of first charge . That means these charges are supposed to be made of combination of first charge . So first charge appears to be minimum possible charge .

Hence this charge may exist on single electron.

Answer:

GE = ME - \frac{1}{2} m\,v^2,  which agrees with option C in your list.

Explanation:

The definition of Mechanical Energy (ME) of a system is the addition of the gravitational potential energy (GE) plus the kinetic energy (KE) of the system:

ME = GE + KE

Given that the KE is: \frac{1}{2} m\,v^2,

solving for GE in the formula above gives:

GE = ME - KE = ME - \frac{1}{2} m\,v^2,  which agrees with option C

Explain electrostatic force
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

Electrostatics is a branch of physics that studies electric charges at rest. Since classical physics, it has been known that some materials, such as amber, attract lightweight particles after rubbing. The Greek word for amber, or electron, was thus the source of the word 'electricity'.

At summer camp, the swimming course runs the length (L) of a small lake. To determine the length of the course, the camp counsel
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

47 m

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include the following:

Length of dry leg 1 (L1) = 40 m

Length of dry leg 2 (L2) = 25 m

Length of swimming course (L) =..?

The length of the swimming course can be obtained by using pythagoras theory as shown below:

L² = L1² + L2²

L² = 40² + 25²

L² = 1600 + 625

L² = 2225

Take the square root of both side.

L = √2225

L = 47.1 ≈ 47 m

Therefore, the length of the swimming course is approximately 47 m.

Which nuclei is not radioactive? <br> A. Am-241<br> B. Mg-24<br> C. Pu-241<br> D. U-238
Helen [10]

Hello!

Which nuclei is NOT radioactive?

A) Am-241 B) Mg-24 C) Pu-241 D) U-238

Solving:

It is noteworthy that chemical elements located on the periodic table in the lanthanide and actinide groups are radioactive.  

Am-241 (americium) belongs to the group of actinides and is a heavy and radioactive metal.  

Mg-24 (magnesium) is an essential element for the body, mainly for the nervous system, in addition to synthesizing proteins and serves for hormonal control, belongs to the group of alkaline earth metals and is a non-radioactive nucleus.

Pu-241 (plutonium) is an element that is isotope of fission by plutonium, belongs to the group of actinides and is a heavy and radioactive metal.  

U-238 (uranium) is an element that is isotope of non-fission uranium, belongs to the group of actinides and is a heavy and radioactive metal.

Answer:

B) Mg-24

a 1-kg discus is thrown with a velocity of 19 m/s at an angle of 35 degrees from the vertical direction. calculate the vertical
nlexa [21]

Answer:

Vx =  10.9 m/s ,  Vy = 15.6 m/s

Explanation:

Given velocity V= 19 m/s

the angle 35 ° is taken from Y-axis so the angle with x-axis will be 90°-35° = 55°

θ = 55°

to Find Vx = ? and Vy= ?

Vx = V cos θ

Vx = 19 m/s  × cos 55°

Vx =  10.9 m/s

Vx = V sin θ

Vy = 19 m/s  × sin 55°

Vy = 15.6 m/s
