oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Energy of system of charges

= k q₁q₂ / r₁₂ + k q₁q₃ / r₁₃ + k q₃q₂ / r₃₂

q₁ , q₂ and q₃ are charges and  r₁₂ , r₁₃ , r₃₂ are densities between them

9 x 10⁹ ( 2x2 x10⁻¹²/ .25 + 2x2 x10⁻¹²/ .25 + 2x2 x10⁻¹²/ .25 )

= 9 x 10⁹  x 3 x 16 x 10⁻¹²

= 432 x 10⁻³

= .432 J .

An electron moves in a circular path perpendicular to a magnetic field of magnitude 0.275 T. If the kinetic energy of the electr
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

Radius, r=2.14\times 10^{-5}\ m

Explanation:

It is given that,

Magnetic field, B = 0.275 T

Kinetic energy of the electron, E=4.9\times 10^{-19}\ J

Kinetic energy is given by :

E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2E}{m}}

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 4.9\times 10^{-19}}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}}            

v = 1037749.04 m/s

The centripetal force is balanced by the magnetic force as :

qvB\ sin90=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

r=\dfrac{mv}{qB}

r=\dfrac{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 1037749.04}{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.275 }

r=2.14\times 10^{-5}\ m

So, the radius of the circular path is 2.14\times 10^{-5}\ m. Hence, this is the required solution.

Steel blocks A and B, which have equal masses, are at TA = 300 oC and T8 = 400 oC. Block C, with mc - 2mA, is at TC = 350 oC. Bl
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

b) TA = TB = TC

Explanation:

  • When put in contact each other, and isolated, both blocks will exchange heat till they reach to thermal equilibrium.
  • During this process, the body at a higher temperature, will loss heat, tat it will be gained by the other body.
  • The equilibrium condition will be reached when the following equation be met:

       \Delta Q = c_{st}* m_{A} * (T_{fin}  - T_{0A} ) = c_{st}* m_{B} * (T_{0B}  - T_{fin} )

  • Replacing by the values of T₀A = 300º C, and T₀B = 400ºC, and simplifying common terms as mA = mB, we can solve for  Tfin, as follows:

       (400 \ºC - T_{fin}) = (T_{fin} - 300 \ºC) \\ \\  2* T_{fin} = 700\ºC\\ \\ T_{fin} = 350\ºC

  • So, when both blocks reach to equilibrium, they will be at a common final temperature, 350ºC.
  • When put in contact with block C, at the same temperature, at that instant, the three blocks will have the same common temperature of 350 ºC.
  • So, option b) is the right one.

Which of these best explains the ability of small insects to walk on the surface of still water?
Furkat [3]
Well, the surface of still water has surface tension. If there isn't enough mass or weight to break the surface tension, the object will float.

Which has the lowest heat capacity? (values of heat capacities and calculations are unnecessary).
Brrunno [24]

The correct answer is Metals.

Generally, the specific heat of metals is low. Very high specific heat exists in water.A physical feature of matter known as heat capacity or thermal capacity is the quantity of heat that must be applied to an object in order to cause a unit change in temperature. Heat capacity is measured in joules per kelvin (J/K), the SI unit. A broad property is heat capacity. Use the following equation to determine heat capacity: heat capacity = E / T, where E is the quantity of delivered heat energy and T is the change in temperature. The formula would be as follows, for instance, if it takes 2,000 Joules of energy to raise a block's temperature by 5 degrees Celsius: 2,000 Joules per °C is the heat capacity.
