What is the highest energy to which doubly ionized helium atoms (alpha particles) can be accelerated in a DC accelerator with 3
pentagon [3]

Answer:

Highest energy will be equal to 9.6\times 10^{-13}J

Explanation:

Charged on doubly ionized helium atom q=2e=2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}C=3.2\times 10^{-19}C

It is accelerated with maximum voltage of 3 MV

So voltage V=3\times 10^6volt

Now energy is given by E=qV=3.2\times 10^{-19}\times 3\times 10^6=9.6\times 10^{-13}J

So highest energy will be equal to 9.6\times 10^{-13}J

Scientists often work on projects for a long time and fail to see sources of error in their research. Which process allows an ou
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

The correct approach is Option B (Peer Review).

Explanation:

  • Rather made reference to someone as a scientific peer-review, it encourages the specialist who has not been essential to the study team to analyze the study objectively and pointed out everyone's mistakes. It serves as major self-regulation for scholars and aims to make the publishing process somewhat credible. Hence, the solution to this issue is Peer Examination.
  • Funding organizations rarely have the capabilities to recognize out mistakes, whereas definitive analysis is a method of study that helps to make a definitive statement. The gathering of data is simply a process of scientific study.

Other approaches do not apply to the example mentioned. Although the one mentioned is right.
