This image shows a stream of positively charged particles being directed at gold foil. The positively charged particles are call

ed "alpha particles” and each one is like a nucleus without any electrons.
What is the best explanation for why a particle is striking point X?

Alpha particles are mostly empty space, so they move in random directions, and one of these alpha particles can strike point X.
The gold atoms contain negative electrons, so when alpha particles strike the gold they keep moving but in various directions.
If an alpha particle hits the gold foil, a gold nucleus splits and a particle from it flies out at point X.
When the dense, positive alpha particle passes close to a positive nucleus of gold, the alpha particle repels and hits the screen at point X.

Two point charges lie on the x axis. A charge of + 2.30 pC is at the origin, and a charge of − 4.50 pC is at x=−11.0cm.
Radda [10]

r₁ = distance of point A from charge q₁ = 0.13 m

r₂ = distance of point A from charge q₂ = 0.24 m

r₃ = distance of point A from charge q₃ = 0.13 m

Electric field by charge q₁ at A is given as

E₁ = k q₁ /r₁² = (9 x 10⁹) (2.30 x 10⁻¹²)/(0.13)² = 1.225 N/C     towards right

Electric field by charge q₂ at A is given as

E₂ = k q₂ /r₂² = (9 x 10⁹) (4.50 x 10⁻¹²)/(0.24)² = 0.703 N/C    towards left

Since the electric field in left direction is smaller, hence the electric field by the third charge must be in left direction

Electric field at A will be zero when

E₁ = E₂ + E₃

1.225 = 0.703 + E₃

E₃ = 0.522 N/C

Electric field by charge "q₃" is given as

E₃ = k q₃ /r₃²

0.522 = (9 x 10⁹) q₃/(0.13)²

q₃ = 0.980 x 10⁻¹² C = 0.980 pC

Classify each process according to whether it does or does not produce a new substance.
AlexFokin [52]

The processes under chemical change are: cooking an egg, fireworks exploding, and rusting of a metal tool.

The processes under physical change are: melting ice, evaporating puddle of water, and dissolving of salt in water.

Given:

The following process:

  1. cooking an egg
  2. melting ice
  3. fireworks exploding
  4. evaporating puddle of water
  5. rusting of a metal tool
  6. Dissolving of salt in water

To find:

The classify the processes in whether it does or does not produce a new substance.

Solution:

  • Chemical change is the change when a new substance is formed due to a change in the chemical composition of the substance.
  • Physical change is the change in which no change in chemical composition takes place and the identity of the substance remains the same.
  • Cooking an egg

Chemical change, due to change in atomic arrangement egg get solidified on cooking, a new substance is formed.

  • Melting ice

Physical change, change in the state of matter is taking from solid to liquid, no new substance is formed.

  • Firework exploding

Chemical change. formation of carbon dioxide gas and sound energy, anew substance formed

  • Evaporating puddle of water

Physical change, change in the state of matter is taking from liquid to gas, no new substance is formed.

  • Rusting of metal tool

Chemical change, formation of oxides on the surface of the metal tool due to reaction between air and metal, a new substance is formed.

  • Dissolving of salt in water

Physical change, ions of salt in the solid state are changing into aqueous ions with no formation of new substance, no new substance is formed.

The processes under chemical change are: cooking an egg, fireworks exploding, and rusting of a metal tool.

The processes under physical change are: melting ice, evaporating puddle of water, and dissolving of salt in water.

A plane accelerates from rest at a constant rate of 5.00 m/s2 along a runway that is 1800 m long. Assume that the plane reaches
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

26.8 seconds

Explanation:

To solve this problem we have to use 2 kinematics equations: *I can't use subscripts for some reason on here so I am going to use these variables:

v = final velocity

z = initial velocity

x = distance

t = time

a = acceleration

{v}^{2}  =  {z}^{2}  + 2ax

v = z + at

First let's find the final velocity the plane will have at the end of the runway using the first equation:

{v}^{2}  =  {0}^{2}  + 2(5)(1800)

v = 60 \sqrt{5}

Now we can plug this into the second equation to find t:

60 \sqrt{5}  = 0 + 5t

t = 12 \sqrt{5}

Then using 3 significant figures we round to 26.8 seconds

What happens in a global convection cell? apex​
zysi [14]

Answer:

In a global convection cell less –dense air at the equator rises and flows towards the poles. And from pole, the dense air sinks down and flows back towards the equator.... This movement of air is also supported by the Earth's rotation known as Coriolis Effect.
