Answer:

The correct option is 'c':electron,proton,helium nucleus

Explanation:

The De-Broglie's wavelength of particle is given by

\lambda =\frac{h}{mv}

Thus we can see that wavelength is inversely related to mass of the particle since 'h' (Plank's constant) and velocity is same for all the particles  

Thus we conclude that the the lightest particle will have the most wavelength

Electron being the lightest of the 3 particles will have the largest wavelength thus the correct option is 'c'. Since electron has the largest wavelength followed by proton and the least wavelength among the 3 is of helium.

If the heart becomes damaged or weakened, how will this affect the body’s systems?
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

As your heart works harder, it becomes weaker and the damage increases. Your body gets less oxygen, and you might notice symptoms like shortness of breath, swelling in your legs, and fluid buildup. Your body tries to keep the blood it has to supply your heart and brain.

A crate resting on a rough horizontal floor is to be moved horizontally. The coefficient of static friction is 0.36. To start th
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

The direction of force will be in upward direction making an angle of θ with the vertical .

Reaction force R = mg - F cosθ

Friction force = μR

= .36 (mg - F cosθ )

Horizontal component of applied force

= F sinθ

For equilibrium

F sinθ = .36 (mg - F cosθ)

F sinθ + .36 F cosθ =.36 mg

F (sinθ + .36 cosθ) = .36 mg

F R( cosδsinθ +sinδ cosθ) = .36 mg ( Rcosδ = 1 . Rsinδ= .36 )

F R sin( θ+δ )  = . 36 mg

F = .36 mg / Rsin( θ+δ )

For minimum F , sin( θ+δ ) should be maximum

sin( θ+ δ ) = sin 90

θ+ δ  = 90

Rsinδ / Rcosδ  = .36

δ = 20⁰

θ = 70⁰ Ans

When a body of mass 0.25 kg is attached to a vertical massless spring, it is extended 5.0 cm from its unstretched length of 4.0
lora16 [44]

Answer:

d=0.165m

Explanation:

Given

m=0.25kg,x_{1}=5cm*\frac{1m}{100cm}=0.05m,x_{2}=4cm*\frac{1m}{100cm}=0.04m,v=2\frac{rev}{s}

The tension of the spring is

F_{k}=K*x_{1}=m*g

K=\frac{m*g}{x_{1}}

K=\frac{0.25kg*9.8m/s^2}{0.05m}=49N/m

The force in the spring is equal to centripetal force so

F_{c}=\frac{m*v^2}{r}

v=w*r=2\pi*r

But Fc is also

Fc=KxΔr

F_{c}=K*(r-x_{2})

Replacing

m*4\pi^2*r=K*(r-x_{2})

0.25kg*4\pi^2*r=49*(r-0.04m)

r=0.205m

total distance is

d=0.205-0.04=0.165m

Tasya [4]

Answer:1.04 N

Explanation:

Given

Gravitational Force on the Platter is 5 N

Tray makes an angle of \theta =12^{\circ}

This gravitational Force has components along and Perpendicular to Platter

Perpendicular Force W_p=W\cos \theta

W_p=5\times \cos 12=4.89 N

Along the Tray

W_{along}=W\sin \theta

W_{along}=5\times \sin 12=1.04 N

Thus 1.04 N is the magnitude of force that will cause Platter to slide down
