Which way do electrons within a rectangular rod move when a negatively-charged balloon is brought near a positively-charged rod?

the measure of each exterior angle of a regular pentagon is ___ the measure of each exterior angle of a regular nonagon

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

(a) 72°

(b) 40°

Explanation:

PENTAGON

First, we calculate the total angles in a Pentagon using:

180(n - 2)

Where n = number of sides of the polygon, in this case, 5.

Hence, the total angle in a polygon is

180(5 - 2) = 180 * 3 = 540°

Therefore, each angle will be:

540°/5 = 108°

Because the interior angle and exterior angle form a straight line (180°), the exterior angle of a regular pentagon will be:

180 - 108 = 72°

The exterior angle of a regular Pentagon is 72°

NONAGON

First, we calculate the total angles in a Nonagon using:

180(n - 2)

Where n = number of sides of the polygon, in this case, 9.

Hence, the total angle in a polygon is

180(9 - 2) = 180 * 7 = 1260°

Therefore, each angle will be:

1260°/9 = 140°

Because the interior angle and exterior angle form a straight line (180°), the exterior angle of a regular nonagon will be:

180 - 140 = 40°

The exterior angle of a regular Nonagon is 40°

Which energy transformations BEST illustrates why people can walk? A) Chemical energy is being converted into light energy. B) C

Gekata [30.6K]

The answer is letter c.

The explanation behind this is when human consumes a plant or when a human being eats an animal that ate a plant. The chemical energy kept in the plant (or animal) cells is progressed into the cells of the human's body. All of the body progressions, like ingestion, breathing, pumping blood, are driven by cells changing the kept chemical energy into heat and work, in a procedure called respiration. In the muscle cells of the human (or any animal), the chemical energy is converted into mechanical work and heat. The muscle pacts, the legs thrust, and the body jumps into the air.

A 50.0-g object connected to a spring with a force constant of 35.0 n/m oscillates with an amplitude of 4.00 cm on a frictionles

Dimas [21]

A) The total energy of the system is sum of kinetic energy and elastic potential energy:
$E=K+U= \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}kx^2$
where
m is the mass
v is the speed
k is the spring constant
x is the elongation/compression of the spring

The total energy is conserved, so we can calculate its value at any point of the motion. If we take the point of maximum displacement:
$x=A=4.00 cm = 0.04 m$
then the velocity of the system is zero, so the total energy is just potential energy, and it is equal to
$E=U= \frac{1}{2}kA^2 = \frac{1}{2}(35.0 N/m)(0.04 m)^2=0.028 J$

b) When the position of the object is
$x=1.00 cm = 0.01 m$
the potential energy of the system is
$U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2 = \frac{1}{2}(35.0 N/m)(0.01 m)^2 = 1.75 \cdot 10^{-3} J$
and so the kinetic energy is
$K=E-U=0.028 J - 1.75 \cdot 10^{-3}J =0.026 J$
since the mass is $m=50.0 g=0.05 kg$ , and the kinetic energy is given by
$K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2$
we can re-arrange the formula to find the speed of the object:
$v= \sqrt{ \frac{2K}{m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{2 \cdot 0.026 J}{0.05 kg} }=1.02 m/s$

c) The potential energy when the object is at
$x=3.00 cm=0.03 m$
is
$U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2 = \frac{1}{2}(35.0 N/m)(0.03 m)^2 =0.016 J$
Therefore the kinetic energy is
$K=E-U=0.028 J-0.016 J = 0.012 J$

d) We already found the potential energy at point c, and it is given by
$U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2 = \frac{1}{2}(35.0 N/m)(0.03 m)^2 =0.016 J$

Find the average energy E for (a) An n-state system, in which a given state can have energy 0,,2,...,n . (b) A harmonic oscillat

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

a♦1 E_average = n E₀ / 2 , b) E_average= infinity

Explanation:

The energy values form an arithmetic series, whose sum is

S = n (a₁ + aₙ) / 2 = n (2a₁ + (n-1) r)/ 2

Where n is the number of terms, a₁ is the first term, aₙ the last term and r is the difference between two consecutive numbers in the series

r = 2E₀ - 0 = 2E₀

Therefore the sum is

S = n (0 + n E₀) / 2

S = n² E₀ / 2

The average value is

E_average = S / n

E_average = n E₀ / 2

b) the case of harmonic oscillation

We have two possibilities.

- if we take a finite number and terms gives the same previous value

- If we take an infinite number of fears the series gives infinity and the average is also infinite

E_average= infinity
