makkiz [27]3 years ago

Answer:

The electric potential at the midpoint between the two particles is 3.349 X 10⁻³ Volts

Explanation:

Electric potential is given as;

V = E*r

where;

E is the electric field strength, = kq/r²

V = ( kq/r²)*r

V = kq/r

k is coulomb's constant = 8.99 X 10⁹ Nm²/C²

q is the charge of the particles = 1.6 X 10⁻¹⁹ C

r is the distance between the particles = 859 nm

At midpoint, the distance = r/2 = 859nm/2 = 429.5 nm

V = (8.99 X 10⁹  * 1.6 X 10⁻¹⁹)/ (429.5 X 10⁻⁹)

V = 3.349 X 10⁻³ Volts

Therefore, the electric potential at the midpoint between the two particles is 3.349 X 10⁻³ Volts

When cooking frozen cheese ravioli, the directions say to put the 255 grams of filled pasta into 3 quarts of boiling water. Why
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

a. T_f=95.14^{\circ}C

b. T_f=86.4^{\circ}C

It is asked for 3 quarts of water  because it prevents the temperature drop.

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of frozen cheese, m_c=255\ g
  • quantity of water suggested for the given cheese, m_w=3\ quarts\times 946.35=2839.05\ g
  • initial temperature of cheese, T_{ic}=-40^{\circ}\ C
  • specific heat of cheese, c_c=0.4\ cal.g^{-1}.^{\circ}C^{-1}
  • initial temperature of water, T_{iw}=100^{\circ}\ C

a.

  • we have specific heat of water, c_w=1\ cal.g^{-1}.^{\circ}C^{-1}

so now, we use the heat equation to find the amount of heat exchange during the process:

m_c\times c_c\times \Delta T=m_w\times c_w\times \Delta T

255\times 0.4\times (T_f-(-40))=2839.05\times 1\times (100-T_f)

T_f=95.14^{\circ}C

b.

when using 1 quart of water:

255\times 0.4\times (T_f-(-40))=946.35\times 1\times (100-T_f)

T_f=86.4^{\circ}C

It is asked for 3 quarts of water  because it prevents the temperature drop.

Define the following:
belka [17]
Define the following:
Potential energy: In physics, potential energy is the energy held by an object because of its position relative to other objects, stresses within itself, its electric charge, or other factors.
Kinetic energy: In physics, the kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion. It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes.
Mechanical energy:
Chemical energy: chemical energy, Energy stored in the bonds of chemical compounds. Chemical energy may be released during a chemical reaction, often in the form of heat; such reactions are called exothermic. Reactions that require an input of heat to proceed may store some of that energy as chemical energy in newly formed bonds
Sound energy: In physics, sound energy is a form of energy that can be heard by living things. Only those waves that have a frequency of 16 Hz to 20 kHz are audible to humans. However, this range is an average and will slightly change from individual to individual.
Light energy: Light energy is a kind of kinetic energy with the ability to make types of light visible to human eyes. Light is defined as a form of electromagnetic radiation emitted by hot objects like lasers, bulbs, and the sun. Light contains photons which are minute packets of energy.
Nuclear energy: Nuclear power is the use of nuclear reactions to produce electricity. Nuclear power can be obtained from nuclear fission, nuclear decay and nuclear fusion reactions. Presently, the vast majority of electricity from nuclear power is produced by nuclear fission of uranium and plutonium in nuclear power plants

If the core of jupiter is 30,000 celcius and it is five times hotter than the sun, what's the temperature of the surface of the
VMariaS [17]
Let, the temperature of Sun's surface = c

So, 5c = 30, 000
c = 30,000 / 5
c = 6,000

In short, Your Answer would be 6000

Hope this helps!

The special relationship between the ohm, the ampere, and the volt can be expressed using what?​
german

Answer:

Ohm's law: I = V / R

Explanation:

V, I, and R, the parameters of Ohm's law

with

V = voltage in Volt

I = current in Ampere

R = resistance in Ohm

Ohm's law states that the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the voltage across the two points. Introducing the constant of proportionality.

The following equation is known as Ohm's law:

I = V / R

You can also write Ohm's law as

V = I * R

You can also write Ohm's law as

R = V / I

Ohm's law states that the R in this relation is constant, independent of the current
