A man walks 18m East then 9.5 North. What is the direction of his displacement?​
Soloha48 [4]

The direction of his displacement is the arctangent of (9.5/18).

That's tan⁻¹ (0.528) . . . about <em>27.8° north of east</em>.

What does the m stand for in the enthalpy equation?
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

Use the formula ∆H = m x s x ∆T to solve.

Explanation:

Once you have m, the mass of your reactants, s, the specific heat of your product, and ∆T, the temperature change from your reaction, you are prepared to find the enthalpy of reaction. Simply plug your values into the formula ∆H = m x s x ∆T and multiply to solve.

No two electrons in an atom can have the same set of four quantum numbers' is
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

D. Pauli's exclusion principle

Explanation:

<em>A. Newton's laws</em> are related to the motion, they state that "Every object in a state of uniform motion will remain in that state of motion unless an external force acts on it", "  Force equals mass times acceleration." and "  For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction"  

<em>B. Bohr's law </em>depicts an atom as a small, positively charged nucleus surrounded by electrons. These electrons travel in circular orbits around the nucleus.  

<em>C. Aufbau principle</em>, also called the building-up principle or the aufbau rule, states that in the ground state of an atom or ion, electrons fill atomic orbitals of the lowest available energy levels before occupying higher levels  

<em>D. Pauli's exclusion principle</em> states that <em>no two fermions (e.g., electrons) in an atom can have the same set of quantum numbers,</em> hence they have to "pile up" or "build up" into higher energy levels.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

A certain parallel-plate capacitor is filled with a dielectric for which Κ = 5.5 .The area of each plate is 0.034 m2 , and the p
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

The maximum energy that can be stored in the capacitor is  6.62 x 10⁻⁵ J

Explanation:

Given that,

dielectric constant k = 5.5

the area of each plate, A = 0.034 m²

separating distance, d =  2.0 mm = 2 x 10⁻³ m

magnitude of the electric field =  200 kN/C

Capacitance of the capacitor is calculated as follows;

C = \frac{k \epsilon A}{d} = \frac{5.5*8.85*10^{-12}*0.034}{2*10^{-3}} = 8.275 *10^{-10} \ F

Maximum potential difference:

V = E x d

V = 200000 x 2 x 10⁻³ = 400 V

Maximum energy that can be stored in the capacitor:

E = ¹/₂CV²

E = ¹/₂ x 8.275 x 10⁻¹⁰ x (400)²

E = 6.62 x 10⁻⁵ J

Therefore, the maximum energy that can be stored in the capacitor is  6.62 x 10⁻⁵ J
