Answer:

10.12square feet

Explanation:

Pressure exerted on the object is defined as the ratio of the force exerted on it to its unit area. Mathematically, Pressure = Force/Area

Given the force = 170kN

Pressure = 180KPa

Area = Force /Pressure

Area = 170kN/180KPa

Area = 0.94N/Pa

Note that 1Newton/Pascal = 10.764square feet

Therefore 0.94N/Pa = x

x = 0.94× 10.764

x = 10.12square feet

Therefore the area upon which this pressure is exerted is 10.12sqft.

There are Z protons in the nucleus of an atom, where Z is the atomic number of the element. An α particle carries a charge of +2
qaws [65]

Answer:

r = 2.84 \times 10^{-14} m

Explanation:

As per energy conservation we know that the electrostatic potential energy of the charge system is equal to the initial kinetic energy of the alpha particle

So here we can write it as

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{k(2e)(ze)}{r}

now we know that

m = 1.67 \times 10^{-27} kg

e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} C

z = 79

here kinetic energy of the incident alpha particle is given as

KE = 6.4 \times 10^{-13} J

now we have

6.4 \times 10^{-13} = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(1.6 \times 10^{-19})^2(79)}{r}

now we have

r = 2.84 \times 10^{-14} m

In series circuit, Req = R₁ + R₂ + R₃ + ···

In parallel circuit, \frac{1}{Req}  = \frac{1}{R1} + \frac{1}{R2} + \frac{1}{R3} +...

<h3>Q7.</h3>

total resistance in the upper branch = R₂ + R₃ = R₂ + 2

\frac{1}{Req} = \frac{1}{R2+R3} + \frac{1}{R1}

\frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{R2+2} +\frac{1}{6}

R₂ + 2 = 12

R₂ = 10Ω

<h3>Q8.</h3>

\frac{1}{Req} = \frac{1}{R2+R3} + \frac{1}{R1}

\frac{1}{Req} = \frac{1}{2+1} + \frac{1}{4}

Req = 1.7Ω
