That is correct. Or so I believe. Either more or less than the other on the amount of protons and electrons, you can get either an unstable or a stable atom of an element.

Ket [755]

Answer:

6 beats

If one fork beats once and another twice in the same time period

you would hear 1 beat. (Same for 2 and 3 beats).

A thermometer is placed in water in order to measure the water’s temperature. What would cause the liquid in the thermometer to
sineoko [7]
The temperature of the water getting colder would cause the liquid in the thermometer to drop due to less heat being transferred from the water to the liquid, so the liquid molecules are closer than when they have high energy.

At some instant and location, the electric field associated with an electromagnetic wave in vacuum has the strength 71.9 V/m. Fi
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

a) Magnetic field strength, B = 2.397 * 10⁻⁷ T

b) Total energy density, U = 4.58 * 10⁻⁸ J/m³

c) Power flow per unit area, S = 13.71 W/m²

Explanation:

a) Electric field strength, E = 71.9 V/m

The relationship between the Electric field strength and the magnetic field strength in vacuum is:

E = Bc where c = 3.0 * 10⁸ m/s

71.9 = B * 3.0 * 10⁸

B = 71.9 / (3.0 * 10⁸)

B = 23.97 * 10⁻⁸

B = 2.397 * 10⁻⁷ T

b) Total Energy Density:

U = \frac{1}{2} \epsilon_0E^2 +  \frac{1}{2} \frac{B^2}{\mu_0} \\U = \frac{1}{2}* 8.85 * 10^{-12}*71.9^2 +  \frac{1}{2} \frac{(2.397*10^{-7})^2}{4\pi*10^{-7}}\\U = 2.29 * 10^{-8} + 2.29 * 10^{-8}\\U = 4.58 * 10^{-8} J/m^3

c)Power flow per unit area

S = \frac{1}{\mu_0} EB\\S = \frac{1}{4\pi * 10^{-7} } * 71.9 * 2.397 * 10^{-7}\\S = 13.71 W/m^2

A mass weighing 32 pounds stretches a spring 2 feet. Determine the amplitude and period of motion if the mass is initially relea
grandymaker [24]

A mass weighing 32 pounds stretches a spring 2 feet.

(a) Determine the amplitude and period of motion if the mass is initially released from a point 1 foot above the equilibrium position with an upward velocity of 6 ft/s.

(b) How many complete cycles will the mass have completed at the end of 4 seconds?

Answer:

A = 1.803 ft

Period = \frac{\pi}{2} seconds

8 cycles

Explanation:

A mass weighing 32 pounds stretches a spring 2 feet;

it implies that the mass (m) = \frac{w}{g}

m= \frac{32}{32}

= 1 slug

Also from Hooke's Law

2 k = 32

k = \frac{32}{2}

k = 16 lb/ft

Using the function:

\frac{d^2x}{dt} = - 16x\\\frac{d^2x}{dt} + 16x =0

x(0) = -1        (because of the initial position being above the equilibrium position)

x(0) = -6          ( as a result of upward velocity)

NOW, we have:

x(t)=c_1cos4t+c_2sin4t\\x^{'}(t) = 4(-c_1sin4t+c_2cos4t)

However;

x(0) = -1 means

-1 =c_1\\c_1 = -1

x(0) =-6 also implies that:

-6 =4(c_2)\\c_2 = - \frac{6}{4}

c_2 = -\frac{3}{2}

Hence, x(t) =-cos4t-\frac{3}{2} sin 4t

A = \sqrt{C_1^2+C_2^2}

A = \sqrt{(-1)^2+(\frac{3}{2})^2 }

A=\sqrt{\frac{13}{4} }

A= \frac{1}{2}\sqrt{13}

A = 1.803 ft

Period can be calculated as follows:

= \frac{2 \pi}{4}

= \frac{\pi}{2} seconds

How many complete cycles will the mass have completed at the end of 4 seconds?

At the end of 4 seconds, we have:

x* \frac{\pi}{2} = 4 \pi

x \pi = 8 \pi

x=8 cycles
