Points A, B, and C lie along a line from left to right, respectively. Point B is at a lower electric potential than point A. Poi

nt C is at a lower electric potential than point B. Which one of the following statements best describes the subsequent motion, if any, of a positively-charged particle released from rest at point B?
A) The particle will accelerate in the direction of point C.
B) The particle will move at constant velocity in the direction of point C.
C) The particle will remain at rest.

Answer:

A) The particle will accelerate in the direction of point C.

Explanation:

As we know that

potential at points A, B,C and D as V_A, V_B, V_C, V_D  and it is clear from the question that

V_A>V_B>V_C

And we know that flow is always from higher to lower potential (for positive charge due to positive potential energy).

So the charge will accelerate from B toward C.

Hence, the correct option is A.

poizon [28]

Answer:

4.048\times 10^{-7}\ m

Explanation:

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{-34}\ m^2kg/s

c = Speed of light = 3\times 10^8\ m/s

E = Energy = 4.91\times 10^{-19}\ J

Wavelength ejected is given by

\lambda=\dfrac{hc}{E}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\dfrac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{4.91\times 10^{-19}}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=4.048\times 10^{-7}\ m

The maximum wavelength in angstroms of the radiation that will eject electrons from the metal is 4.048\times 10^{-7}\ m

The frequency of the George Washington Bridge is 2.05 Hz. What is its period?
Zina [86]

Answer: 0.5 seconds

Explanation:

Given that:

Frequency of the George Washington Bridge F = 2.05 Hz

Period T = ?

Recall that frequency is the number of cycles a wave can complete in one second. Hence, frequency is the inverse of period.

i.e F = 1/T

2.05Hz = 1/T

T = 1/2.05Hz

T = 0.488 seconds (Rounded to the nearest tenth as 0.5seconds)

Thus, the period of the George Washington Bridge is 0.5 seconds

Air that is not saturated will cool or heat at a rate of __________________ as it rises or descends, respectively
Kay [80]

Air that is not saturated will cool or heat at a rate of 10 degrees C/1000 meters as it rises or descends, respectively

The rate of the change in temperature which is observed while moving upward in the earth's atmosphere with elevation. It can be positive, negative and zero when the temperature decreases, increases or is constant with the elevation respectively.

For the atmosphere, the drop in temperature of rising air that is  unsaturated air is about 10 degrees C/1000 meters (5.5 °F per 1000 feet) altitude.

That means if a there occur a rise of 1000 m , then the temperature of that thing will decrease to 10 degrees. Every 10°C of temperature from the given temperature will decrease at every rise of 1000 m .Air that is not saturated will cool or heat at a rate of 10 degrees C/1000 meters as it rises or descends, respectively
