SVEN [57.7K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Correct Answer is option C

Explanation:

Option A cannot be correct because if both earth and clouds are negatively charged then they will repel each other and electron cannot flow through it because electron is negatively charged and it will get attracted towards positively charged terminal. Hence electric current will not flow between them.

Option B

cannot be correct because if both earth and clouds are positively charged then they will repel each other and electron cannot flow through it.Hence electric current will not flow between them.

Option C

It is correct option because flow of current means flow of electron. so electron which are negatively charged particle will move from cloud to positively charged ground.

Option D

If clouds are neutral then electron will not be there and hence current will not flow.

What is the wavelength of 7.0-TeV protons? A) 550 nm B) 750 nm C) 5.4x10^-15 m D) 3.2x10^-18 m E) 1.8x10^-19 m
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

1.776 x 10^-19 m

Explanation:

Energy, E = 7 TeV

Let λ be the wavelength.

Energy = h c / λ

Where, h is the Planks,s constant and c be the velocity of light

h = 6.63 x 10-^-34 Js

c = 3 x 10^8 m/s

Convert TeV into J

1 TeV = 1.6 x 10^-7 J

So, E = 7 x 1.6 x 10^-7 = 11.2 x 10^-7 J

11.2 x 10^-7 = (6.63 x 10^-34 x 3 x 10^8) / λ

λ = 1.776 x 10^-19 m

An inexperienced researcher runs an experiment and sets his alpha level at .40 because he can't wait to get his firstsignificant
GuDViN [60]

A potential problem is that you are willing to accept a <u>5% </u>chance of being wrong if you reject the null hypothesis.

The significance level is the probability of rejecting the null hypothesis if it is true. For example, a significance level of 0.05 indicates a 5% risk of concluding that there is a difference when there is actually no difference. Rejecting the true null hypothesis results in a Type I error.

The smaller the value of α the more difficult it is to reject the null hypothesis. Therefore, choosing a low value for α can reduce the likelihood of Type I errors. The result here is that if the null hypothesis is false, it may be more difficult to reject using a lower value for α. The alpha value or statistical significance threshold is arbitrary. Which value to use depends on your field of study.
