You wash the dishes. when you let the water down the drain, where is the water flowing the fastest?

Physics

Goshia [24]4 years ago

The water flows the fastest at the center.

This is due to the friction between the water and the sink/drain. The outer parts of the water that are in contact with the kitchen sink/drain experience a greater frictional force and slow down. Their slowing down also affects the layers of water molecules adjacent to them, thereby reducing their speed as well. The layer of water molecules least affected by the friction with the sink/drain is at the center, and so they are the ones that move the fastest.

What is the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave?
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer: (A) The number of waves that pass a point in a certain amount of time.  

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are categorized according to their frequency f or, equivalently, according to their wavelength λ = c/f. Visible light has a wavelength range from ~400 nm to ~700 nm.

Frequency: Is the number of waves that pass a certain point in a specified amount of time.

Trough: The low point of the wave cycle.

Wavelength: The distance between two successive peaks.

Electromagnetic wave: One of the waves that are propagated by simultaneous periodic variations of electric and magnetic field intensity.

A pendulum has 895 J of potential energy at the highest point of its swing. How much kinetic energy will it have at the bottom o
LuckyWell [14K]

Newton's law of conservation states that energy of an isolated system  remains a constant. It can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed  from one form to the other.

Implying the above law of conservation of energy in the case of pendulum we can conclude that at the bottom of the swing the entire potential energy gets converted to kinetic energy. Also the potential energy is zero at this point.

Mathematically also potential energy is represented as

Potential energy= mgh

Where m is the mass of the pendulum.

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height from the bottom z the ground.

At the bottom of the swing,the height is zero, hence the potential energy is also zero.

The kinetic energy is represented mathematically as

Kinetic energy= 1/2 mv^2

Where m is the mass of the pendulum

v is the velocity of the pendulum

At the bottom the pendulum has the maximum velocity. Hence the kinetic energy is maximum at the bottom.

Also as it has been mentioned energy can neither be created nor destroyed hence the entire potential energy is converted to kinetic energy at the bottom and would be equivalent to 895 J.

Calculate the charge of a copper particle of mass 300 mg, if 0.01% of the electron are removed from it​
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

the charge will be neutral.

Explanation:According a book, metals want to "lose" electrons to achieve noble gas configuration. But at the same time, copper ions in a galvanic element are going to gain electrons from a zinc electrode. Why is it so? Is it because one of them HAS to gain/lose electrons, and zinc wins out in terms of achieving noble gas configuration?

murzikaleks [220]
The description of the question provided above points out to the famous Big Bang Theory. In addition, this theory is among the most accepted by cosmologists because it fits like a glove to the phenomenon the universe is experiencing right now: it is expanding and distances between celestial bodies are getting farther and farther.
