The potential difference between two parallel conducting plates in vacuum is 165 V. An alpha particle with mass of 6.50×10-27 kg

and charge of 3.20×10-19 C is released from rest near the positive plate. What is the kinetic energy of the alpha particle when it reaches the other plate? The distance between the plates is 40.0 cm.

Answer:

kinetic energy (K.E) = 5.28 ×10⁻¹⁷            

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of  α particle (m) = 6.50 × 10⁻²⁷ kg

Charge of  α particle (q) = 3.20 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

Potential difference ΔV = 165 V

Find:

kinetic energy (K.E)

Computation:

kinetic energy (K.E) = (ΔV)(q)

kinetic energy (K.E) = (165)(3.20×10⁻¹⁹)

kinetic energy (K.E) = 528 (10⁻¹⁹)

kinetic energy (K.E) = 5.28 ×10⁻¹⁷

What is the frequency of a clock waveform whose period is 750 microseconds?
stich3 [128]
The frequency f of a wave is defined as the inverse of the period T:
f= \frac{1}{T}
The clock in the problem has a waveform with period T=750 ms=0.750 s. Therefore, its frequency is
f= \frac{1}{0.750 s}=1.33 Hz

An astronaut holds a rock 100m above the surface of Planet X . The rock is then thrown upward with a speed of 15m/s , as shown i
Butoxors [25]

Answer:5 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

The described situation is is related to vertical motion (and free fall). So, we can use the following equation that models what happens with this rock:

y=y_{o}+V_{o}sin\theta t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2} (1)

Where:

y=0m is the rock's final height

y_{o}=100 m is the rock's initial height

V_{o}=15 m/s is the rock's initial velocity

\theta=90\° is the angle at which the rock was thrown (directly upwards)

t=10 s is the time

g is the acceleration due gravity in Planet X

Then, isolating g and taking into account sin(90\°)=1:

g=(-\frac{2}{t^{2}})(y-y_{o}-V_{o}t) (2)

g=(-\frac{2}{(10 s)^{2}})(0 m-100 m-(15 m/s)(10 s)) (3)

Finally:

g=5 m/s^{2} (4) This is the acceleration due gravity in Planet X

Describe the current atmosphere on Mars. What evidence suggests that it must have been different in the past?
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

The evidence of water that once was on mars

Explanation:

The martian atmosphere consists mostly of carbon dioxide, but is very thin, less than 1% of Earth's atmosphere. However, the strong evidence of water on Mars in the past that our missions have found means that the atmosphere must have been thicker and warmer, or water would have evaporated away very quickly.

Describe the main reason why the scientific community did not accept Alfred wegener idea of continental drift?
lara31 [8.8K]
<span>I think they were also too skeptic to believe the continent did move or pull apart, even today do you believe that the continents broke from one big flat plate, and that they pulled apart? They also wonder what large force would be responsible for the movement.

It was much later that evidences from plant and animal features that had similarity from two different planets came up that scientists began accepting the idea of continental drift.
And similar rock strata from two different opposite continents, showed similar rock strata.
All these evidences came up much later after Alfred Wengener.

So Alfred Wengener was honored Posthumously</span>
