Answer:

a)The approximate radius of the nucleus of this atom is 4.656 fermi.

b) The electrostatic force of repulsion between two protons on opposite sides of the diameter of the nucleus is 2.6527

Explanation:

r=r_o\times A^{\frac{1}{3}}

r_o=1.25 \times 10^{-15} m = Constant for all nuclei

r = Radius of the nucleus

A = Number of nucleons

a) Given atomic number of an element = 25

Atomic mass or nucleon number = 52

r=1.25 \times 10^{-15} m\times (52)^{\frac{1}{3}}

r=4.6656\times 10^{-15} m=4.6656 fm

The approximate radius of the nucleus of this atom is 4.656 fermi.

b) F=k\times \frac{q_1q_2}{a^2}

k=9\times 10^9 N m^2/C^2 = Coulombs constant

q_1,q_2 = charges kept at distance 'a' from each other

F = electrostatic force between charges

q_1=+1.602\times 10^{-19} C

q_2=+1.602\times 10^{-19} C

Force of repulsion between two protons on opposite sides of the diameter

a=2\times r=2\times 4.6656\times 10^{-15} m=9.3312\times 10^{-15} m

F=9\times 10^9 N m^2/C^2\times \frac{(+1.602\times 10^{-19} C)\times (+1.602\times 10^{-19} C)}{(9.3312\times 10^{-15} m)^2}

F=2.6527 N

The electrostatic force of repulsion between two protons on opposite sides of the diameter of the nucleus is 2.6527

You hold glider A of mass 0.125 kg and glider B of mass 0.375 kg at rest on an air track with a compressed spring of negligible
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

0.2 m/s

Explanation:

m_A = Mass of glider A= 0.125 kg

m_B = Mass of glider B = 0.375 kg

u_A = Initial Velocity of glider A = 0 m/s

u_B = Initial Velocity of glider B = 0 m/s

v_A = Final Velocity of glider A = 0.6 m/s

v_B = Final Velocity of glider B

As linear momentum is conserved

m_{A}u_{A}+m_{B}u_{B}=m_{A}v_{A}+m_{B}v_{B}\\\Rightarrow v_B=\frac{m_{A}u_{A}+m_{B}u_{B}-m_{A}v_{A}}{m_{B}}\\\Rightarrow v_b=\frac{0+0-0.125\times 0.6}{0.375}\\\Rightarrow v_b=-0.2\ m/s

Magnitude of the glider B at this time is 0.2 m/s

To teach you how to find the parameters characterizing an object in a circular orbit around a much heavier body like the earth.T
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

a)  v = √ G M / r, , b) K = ½ m G M / r, , c)  T = 2 π √ (r³ / GM)

, d)  L = m √ (rGM)

Explanation:

The formula of universal gravitation

     F = G m M / r²

Part A) orbital speed

Let's use Newton's second law

    F = m a

Where the acceleration is centripetal

    a = v² / r

Let's replace

    G m M / r² = m v² / r

    v = √ G M / r

Part B)

Kinetic energy

     K = ½ m v²

     K = ½ m G M / r

Part C)

The orbital period The speed (speed module) is constant, so we can use the relationships

    v = d / t

The distance in the length of the circle

    d = 2π r

    T = t = 2π r / (√ G M / r) = 2π r √(r / GM)

    T = 2 π √ (r³ / GM)

Part D) The angular momentum

     L = I w

The satellite is small, so we can approximate it to a particle

     I = m r²

The angular and linear velocity are related

     v = w r

    w = v / r

    w = √(G M / r) (1 / r)

We replace

    L = m r² 1 / r √(GM / r)

    L = m r √ (GM / r)

    L = m √ (rGM)

Part E) let's calculate the order of magnitude of the quantities

    v = √G M / r

The value of the distance from the plant center to the satellite

    r = Re + h

the height of the satellites is less than 1 10⁶m from the surface of the earth,

    r = 6.37 10⁶ + 1 10⁶ = 7.37 10⁶

    v = √ (6.67 10⁻¹¹ 5.98 10²⁴ / 7.37 10⁶)

    v = √ (5.4 10⁶)

    v ~ 10³ m / s

    K = ½ m G M / r

The satellite mass about 10⁴ kg

    K = ½ 10⁴ 6.67 10⁻¹¹ 5.98 10²⁴ / 7.37 10⁶

    K ~ 10¹¹ J

    U = G m M / r

    U ~ 10¹¹ J

    L = m √ (rGM)

    L = 10⁴ √ (7.37 10⁶ 6.67 10⁻¹¹ 5.98 10²⁴)

    L ~ 10¹⁴ kg m2 / s

A beam of blue light is incident on the water/air boundary. what does not change
Dima020 [189]
The frequency of the beam does not change. The direction of the beam, the speed it travels at, the wavelength and indeed the color of the beam will all likely change, but not the frequency and the inherent energy of the beam.

Place the descriptions in the correct categories.
irina [24]

Answer:

At Convergent Boundaries:

Subduction

Island arcs

Volcanic mountains

At Divergent Boundaries:

Mid-ocean ridges

Rift valleys

Plates pulling apart

Magma breaks through crust

Magma flows from cracks

Explanation:

A convergent plate boundary is a location where two tectonic plates are moving toward each other, often causing one plate to slide below the other (in a process known as subduction). The collision of tectonic plates can result in earthquakes, volcanoes, the formation of mountains, and other geological events.

A divergent boundary occurs when two tectonic plates move away from each other. Along these boundaries, earthquakes are common and magma (molten rock) rises from the Earth's mantle to the surface, solidifying to create new oceanic crust.

Divergent boundaries occur in the rifts of the oceanic ridge system, including the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and the East Pacific Rise, and in the continental lithosphere by rift valleys such as the famous East African Great Rift Valley.
