compare the theories that scientists proposed about the source of the sun's energy with the process of nuclear fusion in the sun
ANTONII [103]
The sun's source of energy is know as nuclear fusion (means to fuse) this process has a small nuclei atoms that join together to form a large nucleus. The result of this process is released energy. The fusion of hydrogen into helium in the sun makes a large amount of energy and this is known as the sun's energy source.
The theories that scientist proposed about the source of the sun's energy was that the sun burned fuel to generate its energy and that gravity was causing the sun to shrink slowly and have its energy released. Also both of these theories were disproved.

A hollow cylinder that is rolling without slipping is given a velocity of 5.0 m/s and rolls up an incline to a vertical height o
inysia [295]

Answer:

The hollow cylinder rolled up the inclined plane by 1.91 m

Explanation:

From the principle of conservation of mechanical energy, total kinetic energy = total potential energy

M.E_T = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2} I \omega^2 + mgh

The total energy at the bottom of the inclined plane = total energy at the top of the inclined plane.

\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2 + \frac{1}{2} I \omega_i^2 + mg(0) =  \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2 + \frac{1}{2} I \omega_f^2 + mgh

moment of inertia, I, of a hollow cylinder = ¹/₂mr²

substitute for I in the equation above;

\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2 + \frac{1}{2} (\frac{1}{2}mr^2  \omega_i^2) =  \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2 + \frac{1}{2} (\frac{1}{2}mr^2  \omega_f^2) + mgh\\\\ but \ v = r \omega\\\\\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2 + \frac{1}{2} (\frac{1}{2}m v_i^2  ) =  \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2 + \frac{1}{2} (\frac{1}{2}m v_f^2) + mgh\\\\\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2 +\frac{1}{4}mv_i^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2 +\frac{1}{4}mv_f^2 +mgh\\\\\frac{3}{4}mv_i^2 = \frac{3}{4}mv_f^2 +mgh\\\\mgh = \frac{3}{4}mv_i^2 -  \frac{3}{4}mv_f^2\\\\gh = \frac{3}{4}v_i^2 -  \frac{3}{4}v_f^2\\\\

h = \frac{3}{4g}(v_1^2 -v_f^2)

given;

v₁ = 5.0 m/s

vf = 0

g = 9.8 m/s²

h = \frac{3}{4g}(v_1^2 -v_f^2) =\frac{3}{4*9.8}(5^2 -0) = 1.91 \ m

Therefore, the hollow cylinder rolled up the inclined plane by 1.91 m

Three charged particles are positioned in the xy plane: a 50-nC charge at y = 6 m on the y axis, a –80-nC charge at x = –4 m on
leva [86]

Answer:48 V

Explanation:

Given

Three charged particle with charge

q_1=50\ nC at y=6\ m

q_2=-80\ nC at x=-4\ m

q_3=70\ nC at y=-6\ m

Electric Potential is given by

V=\frac{kQ}{r}

Distance of q_1 from x=8\ m

d_1=\sqrt{6^2+8^2}

d_1=\sqrt{36+64}

d_1=10\ m

similarly d_2=8-(-4)

d_2=12\ m

d_3=\sqrt{(-6)^2+8^2}

d_3=\sqrt{36+64}

d_3=10\ m

Potential at x=8\ m is

V_{net}=\frac{kq_1}{d_1}+\frac{kq_2}{d_2}+\frac{kq_3}{d_3}

V_{net}=k[\frac{q_1}{d_1}+\frac{q_2}{d_2}+\frac{q_3}{d_3}]

V_{net}=9\times 10^9[\frac{50}{10}-\frac{80}{12}+\frac{70}{10}]\times 10^{-9}

V_{net}=9\times 5.33

V_{net}=47.97\approx 48\ V

Select the correct answer.
natali 33 [55]

The wave speed completely depends on the characteristics and properties of the medium  . . . physical properties for mechanical waves, electrical properties for electromagnedtic waves.

So if you want to change the speed of a wave, you have to change the medium . . . shoot it through some different kind of stuff. <em>(B) </em>
