Yep, this is one method for producing beams of gamma-rays. Visible light photons Compton scatters off of high energy electrons propagating in the opposite direction. This is called inverse-Compton scattering<span> or Compton backscattering

A distorted 1kHz sine wave is represented by the equation: LaTeX: v(t) = 5sin(2 \pi 1000t) + 0.05sin(2 \pi 3000t)v ( t ) = 5 s i
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

As given in the problem statement

frequency=1 KHz=1*10^3 Hz

V(t) is represented as

v(t) = 5sin(2 \pi 1000t) + 0.05sin(2 \pi 3000t)

v ( t ) = 5 s i n ( 2 π 1000 t ) + 0.05 s i n ( 2 π 3000 t )

Total harmonic distortion will be 234 Pi

The number of electrons an atom would gain or lose when forming ionic bonds. It can be positive, negative or zero.
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

<u>In an ionic bond , an element will have to lose or gain electrons.</u>

Explanation:

  • Ionic bond, also called electrovalent bond, type of linkage formed from the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions in a chemical compound.
  • Such a bond forms when the valence (outermost) electrons of one atom are transferred permanently to another atom.
  • <em>The atom that loses the electrons becomes a positively charged ion (cation), while the one that gains them becomes a negatively charged ion (anion).</em>

∴

  • <em>The number of electrons an atom would gain or lose when forming ionic bonds cannot be zero.</em>

Which is the best insulator? metal, glass, plastic, or Styrofoam?
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Styrofoam would be the best insulator because it traps the air in small pockets, blocking the flow of heat energy.

A 2.35-kg rock is released from rest at a height of 21.4 m. Ignore air resistance and determine (a) the kinetic energy at 21.4 m
kvasek [131]

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of rock, m = 2.35-kg

It was released from rest at a height of 21.4 m.

(a) The kinetic energy is given by : E_k=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

As the rock was at rest initially, it means, its kinetic energy is equal to 0.

(b) The gravitational potential energy is given by : E_p=mgh

It can be calculated as :

E_p=2.35\times 9.8\times 21.4\\\\E_p=492.84\ J

(c) The mechanical energy is equal to the sum of kinetic and potential energy such that,

M = 0 J + 492.84 J

M = 492.84 J

Hence, this is the required solution.
