Physics
1 answer:
Sphinxa [80]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x = 102.33 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Position where a forest ranger stands is 35 m above the ground. The angle of depression to the base of the fire is 20. We need to find how far from the tower is the fire.

Let the distance is x. We can find x using trigonometry as follows :

\sin\theta=\dfrac{\text{perpendicular}}{\text{hypotenuse}}\\\\\sin(20)=\dfrac{35}{x}\\\\x=\dfrac{35}{\sin(20)}\\\\x=102.33\ m

Hence, the fire is at a distance of 102.33 m from the fire.

Kids are pelting a window with snowballs. On average, two snowballs of roughly 300-g mass hit the window each second, moving hor
hram777 [196]

Answer:

The average force exerted on the window due to two snowballs is 6 N

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of snowballs m = 300 \times 10^{-3} Kg

Velocity of snowball v = 10 \frac{m}{s}

For finding the average force,

Force is equal to the change in momentum,

   F = \frac{dP}{dt}

Here, final velocity is zero so we write,

 F = \frac{mv}{1}

Where dt = 1 sec

 F = 300 \times 10^{-30} \times 10

F = 3 N

Above value of force is due to one ball, but here given in question there are two ball,

F = 3 \times 2

F = 6 N

Therefore, the average force exerted on the window due to two snowballs is 6 N

A particle with negative charge q and mass m = 2.65×10−15 kg is traveling through a region containing a uniform magnetic field B
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

q = 2,95 10-6 C

Explanation:

The magnetic force on a particle is described by the equation

      F = q v x B

Where bold indicate vectors

Let's make the vector product

      vxB =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\-3&4&12\\0&0&-0.13\end{array}\right]

                     

      v x B = 1.20 106 [i ^ (4 0.130) - j ^ (3 0.130)]

      vx B = 1.20 106 [0.52 i ^ - 0.39j ^]

As they give us the force module, let's use Pythagoras' theorem,

     |v xB | =1.20 10⁶ √( 0.52² + 0.39²)

    |v x B| = 1.20 10⁶ 0.65

     v xB = 0.78 10⁶

Let's replace and calculate

    2.30 = q 0.78 10⁶

    q = 2.3 / 0.78 106

    q = 2,95 10-6 C

What are the three rules for writing the electron configuration of elements
astraxan [27]

<em></em>

Answer:

<u><em>The aufbau principle</em></u>

<u />

<u><em>The Pauli exclusion principle</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>

<u><em>Hund's rule of maximum multiplicity</em></u>

Explanation:

<u><em>The aufbau principle:</em></u>

<em></em>

The fundamental electronic configuration is achieved by placing the electrons one by one in the different orbitals available for the atom, which are arranged in increasing order of energy.

<u><em>The Pauli exclusion principle:</em></u>

<em></em>

Two electrons of the same atom cannot have their four equal quantum numbers.  Because each orbital is defined by the quantum numbers n, l, and m, there are only two possibilities ms = -1/2 and ms = +1/2, which physically reflects that each orbital can contain a maximum of two electrons, having opposite spins

<u><em>Hund's rule of maximum multiplicity:</em></u>

This rule says that when there are several electrons occupying degenerate orbitals, of equal energy, they will do so in different orbitals and with parallel spins, whenever this is possible.  Because electrons repel each other, the minimum energy configuration is one that has electrons as far away as possible from each other, and that is why they are distributed separately before two electrons occupy  the same orbital.

B, he has to apply less force to lift the box because the mass has decreased.

The equation for force is
F=ma

If m is decreased by half, then f decreases as well. It takes less force to push a lighter object across the floor.
