Two groups wanted to determine which size of parachute, when released, fell to the ground the slowest. Each group's design and r

esults are shown in the table below.
Each group designed their parachutes as follows:
Design and Results by Group

Group 1
6 20 cm pieces of string
1 50 g package
24 cm round plastic parachute

Results
6 seconds
Group 2
6 20 cm pieces of string
1 50 g package
12 cm round plastic parachute

Results
3 seconds

Which of the following explains why this exercise represents a carefully designed experiment?

A.
They used the same mass of package in all the trials.
B.
They altered only one variable in their design and testing.
C.
They used the same materials when making each parachute.
D.
They confirmed that the smaller the parachute, the faster it falls.

The mean time between collisions for electrons in room temperature copper is 2.5 x 10-14 s. What is the electron current in a 2
Darya [45]

Answer:

1.87 A

Explanation:

τ = mean time between collisions for electrons = 2.5 x 10⁻¹⁴ s

d = diameter of copper wire = 2 mm = 2 x 10⁻³ m

Area of cross-section of copper wire is given as

A = (0.25) πd²

A = (0.25) (3.14) (2 x 10⁻³)²

A = 3.14 x 10⁻⁶ m²

E = magnitude of electric field = 0.01 V/m

e = magnitude of charge on electron = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

m = mass of electron = 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg

n = number density of free electrons in copper = 8.47 x 10²² cm⁻³ = 8.47 x 10²⁸ m⁻³

i = magnitude of current

magnitude of current is given as

i = \frac{Ane^{2}\tau E}{m}

i = \frac{(3.14\times 10^{-6})(8.47\times 10^{28})(1.6\times 10^{-19})^{2}(2.5\times 10^{-14}) (0.01)}{(9.1\times 10^{-31})}

i  = 1.87 A

The fusion of deuterium and hydrogen is shown in the equation. fill in the missing number.
stellarik [79]

Answer:

= 2

Explanation:

During nuclear fusion, two lighter nuclei of elements combine to form heavy nucleus and also energy is released;

During the process of hydrogen fusion a nucleus of deuterium is formed from two protons with emission of a neutrino.

In this case deuterium fuses with hydrogen nuclei to form helium-3 and also release energy.

That is;

2/1 H + 1/1 H = 3/1 He + energy

What advantages do sports drinks or juices have over water in terms of electrolyte content? Why does this matter for strenuous e
Xelga [282]

Sports drinks do offer some benefits when comparing sports drinks vs. water. While water actually works better at fluid replacement, sports drinks are often more appealing to the palate. In other words, people who enjoy the taste of sports drinks may drink more of a sports drink than they would water; this will lead to better hydration.

Sports drinks also contain electrolytes and carbohydrates. While exercising for short periods of time, it is not necessary to replace electrolytes; however, athletes and marathon participants exercising for period of an hour or more can benefit from electrolyte replacement in particular. Carbohydrates offer the body energy. When the body burns calories, it needs carbohydrates to replace energy lost. The longer the workout, the more carbohydrates are needed.
