How do snowflakes form?

Physics

Answer:

✍️A snowflake begins to form when an extremely cold water droplet freezes onto a pollen or dust particle in the sky. This creates an ice crystal. As the ice crystal falls to the ground, water vapor freezes onto the primary crystal, building new crystals – the six arms of the snowflake

✍️ All snowflakes contain six sides or points owing to the way in which they form. The molecules in ice crystals join to one another in a hexagonal structure, an arrangement which allows water molecules - each with one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms - to form together in the most efficient way.

✍️ Snowflakes are symmetrical because they reflect the internal order of the water molecules as they arrange themselves in the solid state (the process of crystallization). ... These ordered arrangements result in the basic symmetrical, hexagonal shape of the snowflake.

✍️ At just below freezing temperature (0 C) a snowflake might look like a tiny plate, while a few degrees colder sees snowflakes that are shaped like columns or needles. There are even triangular snowflakes, which are thought to be caused by dust particles mixed in with the crystals.

✍️ All snowflakes are unique, sort of. The short answer is, yes, because each ice crystal has a unique path to the ground. They will float through different clouds of different temperatures and different levels of moisture, which means the ice crystal will grow in a unique way.

You wind a small paper tube uniformly with 153 turns of thin wire to form a solenoid. The tube\'s diameter is 5.11 mm and its le
lina2011 [118]

The concept required to solve this problem is linked to inductance. This can be defined as the product between the permeability in free space by the number of turns squared by the area over the length. Recall that Inductance is defined as the opposition of a conductive element to changes in the current flowing through it. Mathematically it can be described as

L = \frac{\mu N^2 A}{l}

Here,

\mu = Permeability at free space

N = Number of loops

A = Cross-sectional Area

l = Length

Replacing with our values we have,

L = \frac{(4\pi *10^{-7})(153)^2(\pi (\frac{5.11*10^{-3}}{2})^2)}{2.47*10^{-2}}

L = 0.00002442H

L = 24.42\mu H

Therefore the Inductance is 24.42\mu H

A dart is thrown at a dartboard 3.66 m away. When the dart is released at the same height as the center of the dartboard, it hit
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

The  angle is  \theta  =  15.48^o

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

     The distance of the dartboard from the dart is  d  =  3.66  \ m

     The time taken is  t =  0.455 \ s

   

The  horizontal component of the speed of the dart is mathematically represented as

      u_x =  ucos \theta

where u is the the velocity at dart is lunched

  so

      distance =  velocity \ in \ the\  x-direction  *  time

substituting values

      3.66 =   ucos  \theta *  (0.455)

 =>   ucos \theta =  8.04  \ m/s

From projectile kinematics the time taken by the dart can be mathematically represented as

         t  =  \frac{2usin \theta }{g}

=>    usin \theta =  \frac{g  * t}{2 }

       usin \theta =  \frac{9.8  * 0.455}{2 }

      usin \theta = 2.23

=>   tan \theta =  \frac{usin\theta }{ucos \theta }  =  \frac{2.23}{8.04}

       \theta  =  tan^{-1} [0.277]

      \theta  =  15.48^o
