Answer:

The answer to your question is: 200 g

Explanation:

Need 250 gr of copper.silver alloy 20% copper by weight

   

                     250 g alloy  --------------------   100%

                           x             ---------------------    20%

                         x = 20(250)100

                        x = 5000 / 100

                        x = 50 g of copper

Then

   

   g of British sterling silver = 250 g alloy - 50 g of copper

   g of British sterling silver = 200 g

That's true, you can't get any more precise than what's measured to the least precision.

What is the most likely place for a star to begin to form?
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

Stars are born within the clouds of dust and scattered throughout most galaxies. Deep within these clouds, turbulence creates knots with enough mass to cause the gas and dust to collapse under its own gravitational force.

A student, starting from rest, slides down a water slide. On the way down, a kinetic frictional force (a nonconservative force)
salantis [7]

Answer:

<em>The velocity with which the student goes down the bottom of glide is 12.48m/s.</em>

Explanation:

The Non conservative force is defined as a force which do not store energy or get he energy dissipate the energy from the system as the system progress with the motion.

Given are

   <em>  mass of the student 73 kg</em>

<em>      height of water glide 11.8 m</em>

<em>      work done as -5.5*10³ J</em>

Have to find speed at which the student goes down the glide.

According to<em> Law of Conservation of energy</em>,

          K.E =P.E+Work Done

 mv²/2=mgh +W

Rearranging the above eqn for v

v = √2(gh+W/m)

Substituting values,

V =  12.48 m/s.

<em>The velocity with which the student goes down the bottom of glide is 12.48m/s.</em>

A 13.0 g piece of Styrofoam carries a net charge of â5.40 μC and floats above the center of a large horizontal sheet of plastic
kati45 [8]

Answer:

σ =4.180×10^{-9} C/m^2

Explanation:

electric field due to non conducting sheet is

E=\frac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}

the force acting on the piece of Styrofoam

Eq= mg

⇒E= mg/q

now,

\frac{mg}{q} = \frac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}

⇒\sigma= \frac{2mg\epsilon_0}{q}

\sigma= \frac{2\times0.013\times9.81\times8.85\times10^{-12}}{5.40\times10^{-4}}

charge per unit area (in C/m2) on the plastic sheet σ =4.180×10^{-9} C/m^2
