Answer: The question is incomplete as some other details are missing. Here is the complete question ; A helium atom falls in a vacuum . The mass of a helium atom is 6.64 x 10-27 kg . (a) From what height must it fall so that its translational kinetic energy at the bottom equals the average translational kinetic energy of a helium molecule at 300 K? (b) At what temperature would the average speed of helium atoms equal the escape speed from the Earth, 1.12 x 104 m/s.

a) Height = 95.336Km

b) Temperature = 20118.87K

Explanation:

The detailed steps and calculations is shown in the attached file.

A cannonball is fired at a 45.0° angle and an initial velocity of 670 m/s. Assume no air resistance. What is the vertical compon
elixir [45]

Answer:

<h3>473.8 m/s; 473.8 m/s</h3>

Explanation:

Given the initial velocity U = 670m/s

Horizontal velocity Ux = Ucos theta

Vertical component of the cannon velocity Uy = Usin theta

Given

U = 670m/s

theta = 45°

horizontal component of the cannonball’s velocity = 670 cos 45

horizontal component of the cannonball’s velocity = 670(0.7071)

horizontal component of the cannonball’s velocity = 473.757m/s

Vertical component of the cannonball’s velocity = 670 sin 45

Vertical component of the cannonball’s velocity  = 670 (0.7071)

Vertical component of the cannonball’s velocity  = 473.757m/s

Hence pair of answer is 473.8 m/s; 473.8 m/s

If you weigh 690 N on the earth, what would be your weight on the surface of a neutron star that has the same mass as our sun an
lana [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of star M(star) = 1.99×10^30kg

Gravitational constant G

G = 6.67×10^−11 N⋅m²/kg²

Diameter d = 25km

d = 25,000m

R = d/2 = 25,000/2

R = 12,500m

Weight w = 690N

Then, the person mass which is constant can be determined using

W =mg

m = W/g

m = 690/9.81

m = 70.34kg

The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the neutron star is can be determined using

g(star) = GM(star)/R²

g(star) = 6.67×10^-11 × 1.99×10^30 / 12500²

g (star) = 8.49 × 10¹¹ m/s²

Then, the person weight on neutron star is

W = mg

Mass is constant, m = 70.34kg

W = 70.34 × 8.49 × 10¹¹

W = 5.98 × 10¹³ N

The weight of the person on neutron star is 5.98 × 10¹³ N

A tetrahedron has an equilateral triangle base with 25.0-cm-long edges and three equilateral triangle sides. The base is paralle
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

a. 7.046 Nm²/C

b. 2.348 Nm²/C

Explanation:

Data given:

Base of equilateral triangle = 25.0 cm = 0.25 m

Strength of electric field = 260 N/C

In order to find the electric flux we first have to find out the area of triangle.

Area of triangle = \frac{\sqrt{3} }{4} a^{2}

                         = \frac{\sqrt{3} }{4} (0.25)^{2}

                         = 0.0271 m³

Lets find electric flux,

      Electric Flux = E. A

                          = 260×0.0271

                          = 7.046 Nm²/C

Now we can find the electric flux through each of the three sides.

Electric flux through three sides = \frac{7.046}{3}

                                                = 2.348 N m²/C

65. A length of wire is bent into a closed loop and a magnet is plunged into it, inducing a voltage and, consequently, a current
natulia [17]

Answer:

Resistance of the second wire is twice the first wire.

Explanation:

Let us first see the formula of resistance;

R = pxL/A

Here L is the lenght of the wire, A the area and p is the resistivity of wire.

As we are given that the length of second wire is double than that of the first wire, hence the resistance of second wire would be double.

Since we have two loop in second case, inducing double voltage but as resistance is doubled so the current would remain same according to ohms law

I = V/R
