Answer:R=7.12ohms

Explanation:

Emf (electromotive force) is the source of energy in an electric circuit. It is also the sum of all potential drops across loads in an electric circuit.

Resistance is the opposition to the flow of current in an electric circuit. The presence of a load therefore tends to restrict the current flowing through it.

According to ohm's law, E=IR

E is the emf

I is the current

R is effective resistance (load can be connected in series or parallel)

According to the question, Emf = 1.50V, current(I) =0.17A and terminal voltage V =1.40V

First we need to get the internal resistance (r), from the formula

Terminal voltage V = E -Ir where r is the internal resistance

Substituting

1.40=1.50-0.17r

1.40-1.50=-0.17r

-0.1=-0.17r

r=-0.17/-0.1

r= 1.7ohms

To get R, using E=I(R+r) since the load is in series with internal resistance,we add both to get our effective resistance

1.50=0.17(R+1.7)

1.50=0.17R+0.289

1.50-0.289=0.17R

1.211=0.17R

R=1.211/0.17

R=7.12ohms.

Consider a model of a hydrogen atom in which an electron is in a circular orbit of radius r = 5.92×10−11 m around a stationary p
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

2.068 x 10^6 m / s

Explanation:

radius, r = 5.92 x 10^-11 m

mass of electron, m = 9.1 x 10^-31 kg

charge of electron, q = 1.6 x 10^-19 C

As the electron is revolving in a circular path, it experiences a centripetal force which is balanced by the electrostatic force between the electron and the nucleus.

centripetal force = \frac{mv^{2}}{r}

Electrostatic force = \frac{kq^{2}}{r^{2}}

where, k be the Coulombic constant, k = 9 x 10^9 Nm^2 / C^2

So, balancing both the forces we get

\frac{kq^{2}}{r^{2}}=\frac{mv^{2}}{r}

v=\sqrt{\frac{kq^{2}}{mr}}

v=\sqrt{\frac{9\times 10^{9}\times1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 5.92\times10^{-11}}}

v = 2.068 x 10^6 m / s

Thus, the speed of the electron is give by  2.068 x 10^6 m / s.

How does the force the Earth exerts on you compare with the force you exert on it?
Pie

Answer:

C.Earth and you exert equal and opposite forces on each other.

Explanation:

Hello, I can help you with this

The force that the earth exerts on any object is due to the force of gravity and is known as weight, F = mg, this force is directed towards the center of the earth, in addition, according to the laws of physics for any action must have a reaction, in this case it is a force that goes out  from the ground and it is directed upwards, this force is called normal and it has the same magnitude of your weight but the opposite direction.

Have a great day.
