Answer:

upper part of any wave.

Explanation:

we normally define wave motion in term of movement of particles. compressions and rarefaction. rarefaction particles apart , and same as trough ( part of wave above mean line ).

Set up a parallel circuit with three resistors. Set up the battery to be 9 V, one resistor at 10 Ohms, the other at 21 Ohms, and

valina [46]

In a parallel circuit, the equivalent resistance is the reciprocal of (the sum of the individual reciprocals).

1/R = 1/10 + 1/21 + 1/13

1/R = 0.225 mhos

R = 4.45 ohms

I = V / R

The total current out of the battery is

I = (9v)/(4.45ohms)

I = 2.02 Amperes

As the total current leaves the battery, it splits into 3 paths, and each resistor gets part of it. The 10ohm resistor gets the most current; the 21ohm resistor gets the least current. After flowing through the resistors, the 3 currents join and add up to 2.02 Amperes again, and the same current returns to the battery.

Each resistor has the same 9v of EMF across it.

In a Rutherford scattering experiment, an alpha particle is accelerated toward a stationary silver nucleus. If the closest appro

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Initial Kinetic energy of alpha particle is 9.45x10⁻¹³ J .

Explanation:

The distance at which the initial kinetic energy of the particle is equal to the potential energy is known as closest distance. As it is Rutherford scattering, so it is a coulomb potential energy.

Let K be the initial kinetic energy of alpha particle and r be the closest approach distance. So,

Initial Kinetic Energy = Coulomb Potential Energy

K = $\frac{k\times2e\times{Ze}}{r }$

Here, k is constant, e is charge of electron and Z is the atomic number of silver.

Put 9x10⁹ N m²/C² for k, 1.6x10⁻¹⁹ C for e, 47 for Z and 22.9x10⁻¹⁵ m for r in the above equation.

K = $\frac{9\times10^{9}\times{1.6}\times10^{-19}\times{1.6}\times10^{-19}\times2\times47}{22.9\times10^{-15} }$

K = 9.45x10⁻¹³ J
