torisob [31]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: True

Explanation:

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or the number of electrons that are present in an electrically neutral atom.

Atomic number = Number of protons = number of electrons = 2

Electronic configuration represents the total number of electrons that a neutral element contains. We add all the superscripts to know the number of electrons in an atom.

The electronic configuration will be 1s^2

As its duplet is already complete and it has noble gas configuration , it is stable with 2 valence electrons.

A man has 887.5 J of kinetic energy while running with a velocity of 5 m/s. What is his mass?
monitta

Answer:

The mass of the man is 71 kg

Explanation:

Given;

kinetic energy of the man, K.E = 887.5 J

velocity of the man, v = 5 m/s

The mass of the man is calculated as follows;

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

where;

m is the mass of the man

2K.E = mv²

m = 2K.E / v²

m = (2 x 887.5) / (5)²

m = 71 kg

Therefore, the mass of the man is 71 kg

Which of the following best describes the term thermal energy? Choose one: A. The energy of an object in motion due to its mass
o-na [289]

Answer:

The correct option is (d).

Explanation:

  • The energy a particle has because of its charge and its position relative to another particle is called thermal energy.
  • It is the energy that comes from heat. This is generated by the movement of the particles in an object.
  • Thermal energy is the energy an object or system has due to the movement of particles within.

Hence, the correct option is (d).

Assume this 1.20-mm-radius copper wire is electrically neutral in the Earth reference frame, in which it is at rest and carrying
agasfer [191]

Answer:

The charge density in the system is 4.25*10^4C/m

Explanation:

To solve this problem it is necessary to keep in mind the concepts related to current and voltage through the density of electrons in a given area, considering their respective charge.

Our data given correspond to:

r=1*10^{-3}m\\v = 5.2*10^{-4}m/s\\e= 1.6*10^{-19}C

We need to asume here the number of free electrons in a copper conductor, at which is generally of 8.5 *10^{28}m^{-3}

The equation to find the current is

I = VenA

Where

I =Current

V=Velocity

A = Cross-Section Area

e= Charge for a electron

n= Number of free electrons

Then replacing,

I = (5.2*10^{-4})(1.6*10^{-19})(88.5 *10^{28})(\pi(1*10^{-3})^2)

I= 22.11a

Now to find the linear charge density, we know that

I = \frac{Q}{t} \rightarrow Q = It

Where:

I: current intensity

Q: total electric charges

t: time in which electrical charges circulate through the conductor

And also that the velocity is given in proportion with length and time,

V_d = \frac{l}{t} \rightarrow l = V_d t

The charge density is defined as

\lambda = \frac{Q}{l}\\\lambda = \frac{It}{V_d t}\\\lambda = \frac{I}{V_d}

Replacing our values

\lambda = \frac{22.11}{5.20*10{-4}}

\lambda= 4.25*10^4C/m

Therefore the charge density in the system is 4.25*10^4C/m

The drag force pushes opposite your motion as you ride a bicycle. If you double your speed, what happens to the magnitude of the
PIT_PIT [208]

The drag force is directly proportional to the square of the velocity of motion of the object. So as the speed is doubled, the magnitude of drag force will get quadrupled.

<u>Explanation: </u>

Drag force is the opposing or resisting force acting on any object by the medium in which it is moving. So in this case, you are riding a bicycle, thus the medium can be considered as air.

The formula for calculating drag force is as below:

               \text {Drag force }=\frac{1}{2} \rho v^{2} C_{D} A

Here, ρ is the density of the air molecules, v is the velocity or speed of the bicycle, CD is the drag coefficient and A is the area of the bicycle.

In the above equation, only the term velocity will be a varying quantity with respect to time and other quantities will remain constant throughout the single situation of riding of bicycle.

So, the equation can be,

             \text { Drag force }=k v^{2}

Where ,  

     k=\frac{1}{2} \rho C_{D} A (constant for this whole condition)

Now given the speed of bicycle increased from v to 2v, so the initial drag force will be

                   N_{i}=k v^{2}

After increase in speed, the final drag force will be  

                   N_{f}=k(2 v)^{2}

                   N_{f}=4 k v^{2}=4 N_{i}

Thus, if the speed of the bicycle is doubled, the drag force will get increased by four times.
