Answer:a) Water is relatively resistant to an increase in temperature

Explanation:

Water has relatively high heat capacity i.e. it requires high amount of heat to raise a little increase in temperature.

Heat capacity is defined as ability of molecule to absorb heat . Mathematically heat capacity is defined as

C=\frac{Q}{\Delta T}

where C=heat\ capacity

Q=heat\ interaction

\Delta T=change\ in\ Temperature

An undamped oscillator has period ro= 1.000 s, but I now add a little damping so that its period changes to r i= 1.001 s.
Firlakuza [10]

This Question has mistakes.Correct question is

An undamped oscillator has period  τo=1.000s , but I now add a little damping so that its period changes to  τ1=1.001s.

What is the damping factor β? By what factor will the amplitude of oscillation decrease after 10 cycles? Which effect of damping would be more noticeable, the change of period or the decrease of the amplitude?

Answer:

β=0.28 /sec

Amplitude=0.0606

Explanation:

T_{o}=2\pi  /w\\T_{1}=2\pi /\sqrt{w^{2} -\beta^{2}  }\\ As\\T_{o}=1 \\T_{1}=1.001\\From  T_{o}\\w=2\pi \\So\\T_{1}=w/\sqrt{w^{2} -\beta^{2}  }\\\beta =0.00447w\\\beta =0.00447(2\pi )\\\beta =0.28sec^{-1}\\ Amplitude=Ae^{-\beta t}\\ after\\ t=10T_{1}\\so\\Ae^{-\beta(10t_{1}) }=e^{-\beta(10t_{1}) }\\=e^{-\(0.28)(10)(1.001) }\\Amplitude=0.0606

A charge q = 3 × 10-6 C of mass m = 2 × 10-6 kg, and speed v = 5 × 106 m/s enters a uniform magnetic field. The mass experiences
NeX [460]

Answer:

Magnetic field, B = 0.004 mT

Explanation:

It is given that,

Charge, q=3\times 10^{-6}\ C

Mass of charge particle, m=2\times 10^{-6}\ C

Speed, v=5\times 10^{6}\ m/s

Acceleration, a=3\times 10^{4}\ m/s^2

We need to find the minimum magnetic field that would produce such an acceleration. So,

ma=qvB\ sin\theta

For minimum magnetic field,

ma=qvB

B=\dfrac{ma}{qv}

B=\dfrac{2\times 10^{-6}\ C\times 3\times 10^{4}\ m/s^2}{3\times 10^{-6}\ C\times 5\times 10^{6}\ m/s}

B = 0.004 T

or

B = 4 mT

So, the magnetic field produce such an acceleration at 4 mT. Hence, this is the required solution.

Air is enclosed in a syringe at room temperature. The end is the pushed so the air only fills a 1/3 of the length of the syringe
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

A) Does not change

B) Decrease

C) Increasing

D) Increasing

Explanation:

When it pushes it's volume is reduced by 1/3 because it's Area is constant there for only volume is decreased. Then the number of molecules don't change

A) don,t change

B) Decreases

C) Density is increased because it mass doesn't change. there for

Mass = Density * Volume

When Volume is decreasing to keep mass constant Density will be increased.

D) Pressure is increased according to the boil's law. it says that for fixed mass and fixed temperature pressure is inversely proportional to the volume. then volume decrease pressure increase

Full explanation please I’m asking kindly
-Dominant- [34]

1).

Time = (distance) / (speed)

Time = (1000 meters) / (331 m/s)

<em>Time = 3.02 seconds</em>

2).

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (second speed) - (first speed)

Change in speed = (50 m/s) - (20 m/s) = 30 m/s

Acceleration = (30 m/s) / (5 seconds)

<em>Acceleration = 6 m/s²</em>

An early model of the atom, proposed by Rutherford after his discovery of the atomicnucleus, had a positive point charge +Ze(the
Amanda [17]

Answer:

a)  E = k Ze (1- r³ / R³)  1/r², b) E=0, c)   E = -6.62 10¹⁰  N / C

Explanation:

a) For this we can use the law of Gauus

         Ф = E- dA = q_{int} / ε₀

where we take a sphere as a Gaussian surface, so that the electric field lines and the radii of the sphere are parallel, consequently the dot product is reduced to the algebraic product

       E A =q_{int} / ε₀

the area of ​​a sphere  

      A = 4π r²

      E 4π r² = q_{int} / ε₀

      E = 1 / 4πε₀   q_{int} / r²

       k = 1 /4π ε₀

       E = k q_{int} / r²       (1)

       

let's analyze the charge inside the gaussian sphere,

let's use the concept of density for electrons, since they indicate that the charge is evenly distributed

     ρ = Q / V

where the volume of the sphere is

    V = 4/3 πr³

     Qe = ρ V

     Qe = ρ 4 / 3π r³

the density of the electrons is

     ρ = Ze 3 / (4π R³)

where R is the atomic radius

we substitute

       Qe = Ze r³/ R³

for protons they are in a very small space, the atomic nucleus, so we can superno that they are a point charge.

The net charge inside our Gaussian surface, the charge of the protoens plus the charge of the electroens (Qe)

     q_{int} = q_proton + Q_electron

     q_{int} = + Ze - Qe

     q_{int} = + Ze - Ze r³ / R³

     q_{int} = Ze (1- r³ / R³)

   

  we substitute in equation 1

     E = k Ze (1- r³ / R³)  1/r²

b) on the surface of the atom r = R

therefore the electric field is zero

      E = 0

c) Calculate the electric field for the Uranium for

       r = R / 2 = 0.10 10⁻⁹ / 2 = 0.05 10⁻⁹ = 5 10⁻¹¹ m

     

       E = 8.99 10⁹ 92 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ (1-1/2)³   1/ (5 10⁻¹¹)²

       E = -6.62 10¹⁰  N / C
