How many electrons are in the element that comes just before platinum in the periodic table?

The waste products of a nuclear fission powerplant can best be described as

marishachu [46]

The waste products of a nuclear fission power plant can best be described as radioactive waste.
These are the by-products from the processes carried out that produce nuclear energy. This type of waste is highly dangerous. A lot of attention has to be paid to the collection and disposal of this waste as it must not reach any near by water bodies for example. It can be deadly for life.

Three long wires are connected to a meter stick and hang down freely. Wire 1 hangs from the 50-cm mark at the center of the mete

disa [49]

Answer:

Three long wires are connected to a meter stick and hang down freely. Wire 1 hangs from the 50-cm mark at the center of the meter stick and carries 1.50 A of current upward. Wire 2 hangs from the 70-cm mark and carries 4.00 A of current downward. Wire 3 is to be attached to the meterstick and to carry a specific current, and we want to attach it at a location that results ineach wire experiencing no net force.

(a) Determine the position of wire 3.

b) Determine the magnitude and direction of current in wire 3

Explanation:

a) $F_{net} \text {on wire }3=0$

$\frac{\mu_0 I_1 I_3}{2 \pi x} = \frac{\mu I_2 I_3}{2 \pi (0.2+x)} \\\\\frac{1.5}{x} =\frac{4}{0.2+x} \\\\0.03+1.5x=4x\\\\x=0.012m\\\\=1.2cm$

position of wire = 50 - 1.2

= 48.8cm

b) $F_{net} \text {on wire }1=0$

$\frac{\mu _0 I_1 I_3}{2 \pi (1.2)} = \frac{\mu _0 I_1 I_2}{2 \pi (20)} \\\\\frac{I_3}{1.2} =\frac{4}{20} \\\\I_3=0.24A$

Direction ⇒ downward

A double charged ion is accelerated to an energy of 32.0 keV by the electric field between two parallel conducting plates separa

Zanzabum

Answer:

$E=8*10^5\frac{V}{m}$

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electric field between two parallel conducting plates is defined as:

$E=\frac{\Delta V}{d}$

Here $\Delta V$ is the potential difference between the plates and d its separation.

The electric potential energy is defined as the product between the particle's charge and the potential difference:

$U=q\Delta V$

Solving for $\Delta V$ and replacing in the electric field formula:

$\Delta V=\frac{U}{q}\\E=\frac{U}{qd}$

In this case we have a double charged ion, so $q=2e$ :

$E=\frac{32*10^3eV}{(2e)(2*10^{-2}m)}\\E=8*10^5\frac{V}{m}$

Which best describes friction in the context of newton's laws?

Pie

Answer:

b

Explanation:

friction needs two objects

the two objects need to touch each other

the two objects need to either have relative movement or, tend to have relative movement urge. (kinetic friction or static friction)

What is likely happening at the boundary between the Nazca plate and the Pacific plate?

Nataly_w [17]

<span>The eastern margin is a convergent boundary subduction zone under the South American Plate and the Andes Mountains, forming the Peru–Chile Trench. The southern side is a divergent boundary with the Antarctic Plate, the Chile Rise, where seafloor spreading permits magma to rise.</span>
