Answer:

Its shape is not fixed

Explanation:

Plasma is sometimes a subset of gases, whereas it is also a state of matter.

These two states are different.

  No fixed shape for plasmas, no fixed volume.

Compared to solids and liquids plasmas are less dense.

 Atoms are used in the making of Plasma.

In plasma state ions are the positively charged nuclei

 

When they gain or lose electrons these atoms and molecules acquire a positive or negative electrical charge,  process is called ionization.

A proton accelerates from rest in a uniform electric field of 610 N/C. At some later time, its speed is 1.4 106 m/s.(a) Find the
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

a) 5.851× 10¹⁰m/s²

b) 2.411×10⁻¹¹s

c)  1.70×10⁻¹¹m

d) 1.661×10⁻²⁷KJ

Explanation:

A proton in the field experience a downward force of magnitude,

F = eE. The force of gravity on the proton will be negligible compared to the electric force

F = eE

a= eE/m

= 1.602×10⁻¹⁹ × 610/1.67×10⁻²⁷

= 5.851× 10¹⁰m/s²

b)

V = u + at

u= 0

v= 1.4106m/s

v= (0)t + at

t= v/a

= 1.4106m/s/5.851 ×10¹⁰

= 2.411×10⁻¹¹s

c)

S = ut + at²

= (o)t + 5.851×10¹⁰×(2.411×10⁻¹¹)²

= 1.70×10⁻¹¹m

d)

Ke = 1/2mv²

    = (1.67×10⁻²⁷×)(1.4106)²/2

 =  1.661×10⁻²⁷KJ

A minimum temperature thermometer in a standard weather instrument shelter measures an overnight low temperature of 36 degrees F
Rudiy27

Answer:

Explanation:

Even though the minimum temperature is more than the freezing point, Frost was observed on the ground because the ground will cool rapidly as cool air tends to move towards the ground, the temperature of the ground is lower than the atmosphere a few feet above it.

As the thermometer is kept some feet above the ground so ground temperature may be lower than the minimum recorded temperature.

Strontium−90 is one of the products of the fission of uranium−235. This strontium isotope is radioactive, with a half-life of 28
Ludmilka [50]

Answer : The time passed in years is 20.7 years.

Explanation :

Half-life = 28.1 years

First we have to calculate the rate constant, we use the formula :

k=\frac{0.693}{t_{1/2}}

k=\frac{0.693}{28.1\text{ years}}

k=2.47\times 10^{-2}\text{ years}^{-1}

Now we have to calculate the time passed.

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant  = 2.47\times 10^{-2}\text{ years}^{-1}

t = time passed by the sample  = ?

a = initial amount of the reactant  = 1.00 g

a - x = amount left after decay process = 0.600 g

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get

t=\frac{2.303}{2.47\times 10^{-2}}\log\frac{1.00}{0.600}

t=20.7\text{ years}

Therefore, the time passed in years is 20.7 years.
