It is malleable

Explanation:

The property that makes metals such as sterling silver the best to create hammered earrings is their malleability.

All metals have a unique and fascinating property of being malleable. They can be carved into any of shape. When hammered they simply draw out and retain their long range ordering of their crystal lattice.

This is made possible by the presence of metallic bonding between the atoms.

The bulk of the physical properties of metals can be attributed the metallic bonds in them.
Metals have large sea of electrons in them.
In forming metallic bonds, there is an attraction between the positive nuclei of all the closely packed atoms in the lattice and the electron cloud jointly formed by all the atoms by loosing their outermost shell electrons.
Metals like silver have low ionization energy.
When they are hammered, they spread out the energy from the hammering.

Which statement accurately describes current electricity?

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

C. It is caused by flowing negatively charged particles.

Explanation:

Current electricity is caused by flowing negatively charged particles. The negatively charged particles that are responsible for the flow of electricity are called electrons.

The force is equal at all points in the field as the field lines are parallel in a uniform field. So, negatively charged particles will move in the opposite direction to the current.

Hence, the correct answer is "C. It is caused by flowing negatively charged particles."

On his honeymoon, James Joule attempted to explore the relationships between various forms of energy by measuring the rise of te

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

The maximum temperature rise = 0.047 °C

Explanation:

Potential Energy, P = mgh

Energy transfered, Q=mcΔT

Potential energy = Energy transfered

mgh = mcΔT

gh = cΔT

ΔT = gh/c

ΔT = (9.81 * 20) / 4186

ΔT = 0.047 °C

Time dilation: A missile moves with speed 6.5-10 m/s with respect to an observer on the ground. How long will it take the missil

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

The time taken by missile's clock is $4.6\times 10^{6} s$

Solution:

As per the question:

Speed of the missile, $v_{m = 6.5\times 10^{3}} m/s$

Now,

If 'T' be the time of the frame at rest then the dilated time as per the question is given as:

T' = T + 1

Now, using the time dilation eqn:

$T' = \frac{T}{\sqrt{1 + (\frac{v_{m}}{c})^{2}}}$

$\frac{T'}{T} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 + (\frac{v_{m}}{c})^{2}}}$

$\frac{T + 1}{T} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 + (\frac{v_{m}}{c})^{2}}}$

$1 + \frac{1}{T} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 + (\frac{v_{m}}{c})^{2}}}$

$1 + \frac{1}{T} = (1 + (\frac{v_{m}}{c})^{2})^{- \frac{1}{2}}$ (1)

Using binomial theorem in the above eqn:

We know that:

$(1 + x)^{a} = 1 + ax$

Thus eqn (1) becomes:

$1 + \frac{1}{T} = 1 - \frac{- 1}{2}.\frac{v_{m}^{2}}{c^{2}}$

$T = \frac{2c^{2}}{v_{m}^{2}}$

Now, putting appropriate values in the above eqn:

$T = \frac{2(3\times 10^{8})^{2}}{(6.5\times 10^{3})^{2}}$

$T = 4.6\times 10^{6} s$

Are the units of the formula ma = mv2/2 dimensionally consistent? Select the single best answer.

Vesnalui [34]

To solve the problem we will simply perform equivalence between both expressions. We will proceed to place your units and develop your internal operations in case there is any. From there we will compare and look at its consistency

$ma = \text{Mass}\times \text{Acceleration}$

$ma = kg \cdot \frac{m}{s^2}$

At the same time we have that

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \text{Mass}\times \text{Velocity}^2$

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = kg ( \frac{m}{s})^2$

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = kg \cdot \frac{m^2}{s^2}$

Therefore there is not have same units and both are not consistent and the correct answer is B.
