The density of the nugget is $19 g/cm^3$ and is made of gold

Explanation:

The density of an object can be calculated as

$d=\frac{m}{V}$

where

d is the density

m is the mass

V is the volume of the object

We have to note that density of an object actually depends on the material the object is made of (therefore, two objects made of the same material can have different mass and different volume, but they have same density).

For the nugget in this problem, we have:

mass: m = 38 g

volume: $V=2 cm^3$

So, its density is

$d=\frac{38}{2}=19 g/cm^3$

And by looking at the table, we see that this value corresponds approximately to the density of gold, so the nugget is made of gold.

B. If you press that into a calculator it comes up with 153.6. You then shift the decimal point 2 times forward and you end up getting 1.5 x 10^2 V.

A/An _____ is described as a device used to store electrical energy, usually two conductors separated by an insulator.

Daniel [21]

Answer: A capacitor.

Explanation:

The capacitor is a passive element that is used in electronics to store electrical energy maintaining an electrical field. The simpler case of a capacitor is the parallel plates capacitor.

It consists of two parallel metal plates separated by a distance D, in this case, the air between the plates works as a dielectric, as the plates do not touch each other and are separated by a dielectric, the charge is stored in the surface plates.

There are a lot of other types of capacitors, the most used in actuality may be the cylindrical one, where instead of parallel plates, it uses two concentric cylinders, and the space between the cylinders is filled with a dielectric/insulator.

How are some types of collisions different from others?

lyudmila [28]

There are two general types of collisions, inelastic and elastic.
Inelastic collisions occur when two objects collide but neither of them bounce away from each other.
Collisions in which the objects do not touch each other are elastic. (Ex: Rutherford Scattering)

As a projectile falls, what happens to the components of velocity?

netineya [11]

Answer:

Option (c).

Explanation:

An object when when projected at an angle, will have some horizontal velocity and vertical velocity such that,

$v_x=v\cos\theta\ \text{and}\ v_y=v\sin\theta$

$\theta$ is the angle of projection

The horizontal component of the projectile remains the same because there is no horizontal motion. Vertical component changes at every point.

As a projectile falls, vertical velocity increases in magnitude, horizontal velocity stays the same .

You have seen magnets sticking to the refrigerator door, or maybe in your science class room. They attract metal items, for exam

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

B) shrinks

Explanation:

The magnetic force is a force exerted between two magnets, or two magnetic materials, or also on an electric charge moving in a magnetic field.

If we talk about magnetic material, the magnetic field they generates can be represented using a dipole: essentially, they have a north pole (where the lines of the field go out) and a south pole (where the lines of the field go in).

Also, the lines spread apart as we move away from the magnet itself. This means that the strength of the field (and so, the intensity of the force) decreases as we move away from the magnet.

Using this description, we can now understand that when we move the paper clip further from the magnet, the force exerted on the clip decreases, as the magnetic field becomes weaker. So, the correct answer is B.
