In Millikan’s experiment, the oil droplets acquire one or more negative charges by combining with the negative charges that are

produced from the ionization of air by X rays. By measuring the charges on the oil droplets, he calculated the charge on a single electron as −1.60×10−19 C. The charge on any negatively charged oil droplet is always a whole-number multiple of the fundamental charge of a single electron.If Millikan was measuring the charge on an oil droplet with 6 negatively charged electrons on it, what charge would he have measured on the droplet?

Answer:

-9.6\cdot 10^{-19} C

Explanation:

The charge of a single electron is:

q=-1.60\cdot 10^{-19} C

If a droplet contains N electrons, then its charge would be:

Q=Nq

In this case, the droplet has

N = 6

electrons, so its total charge is

Q=(6)(-1.60\cdot 10^{-19}C)=-9.6\cdot 10^{-19} C

Three people pull simultaneously on a stubborn donkey. Jack pulls eastward with a force of 83.5 N, Jill pulls with 93.3 N in the
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

235.8 N

Explanation:

Given that

Jack

83.5 east

Jill

93.3√2/2 east

93.3√2/2 north

Jane

121√2/2 east

121√2/2 south

From the above listed, we can calculate the total force component on x axis to be

Fx = 83.5 + 93.3√2/2 + 121√2/2

Fx = 83.5 + 65.97 + 85.56

Fx = 235 N (east)

Again, we calculate the total force component on y axis to be

Fy = 93.3√2/2 - 121√2/2

Fy = 65.97 - 85.56

Fy = -19.59 N (south)

Finding the resultant, we have

F = √(Fx²+Fy²)

F = √(235² + (-19.59)²)

F = √55225 + 383.7681

F = √55608.7681

F = 235.8 N

Analysis of the electrocardiogram can be revealed except ________
Lunna [17]

Answer:

when a person is not breathing

Explanation:

The electrocardiogram shows the cardiac action of the heart as a means of the sinusoidal waves.  However, the waves have a different structure as they show the pumping phase, breathing and the resting phase of the heart. The waves continues to be displayed as long as there is systolic and diastolic pressure in the heart muscles. When there is no action, such as the cessation of brain activity, action ceases.

when two object P and Q are supplied with the same quantity of heat, the temperature change in P is observed to be twice that of
Ahat [919]

<h2>When two object P and Q are supplied with the same quantity of heat, the temperature change in P is observed to be twice that of Q. The mass of P is half that of Q. The ratio of the specific heat capacity of P to Q​</h2>

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity

It is defined as amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree celsius .

It is given as :

Heat absorbed = mass of substance x specific heat capacity x rise in temperature

or ,

Q= m x c x t

In above question , it is given :

For Q

mass of Q = m

Temperature changed =T₂/2

Heat supplied = x

Q= mc t

or

X=m x C₁ X T₁

or, X =m x C₁ x T₂/2

or, C₁=X x 2 /m x T₂                                 (equation 1 )

For another quantity : P

mass of P =m/2

Temperature= T₂

Heat supplied is same that is : X

so, X= m/2 x C₂ x T₂                            

or, C₂=2X/m. T₂                                   (equation 2 )

Now taking ratio of C₂ to c₁, We have

C₂/C₁= 2X /m.T₂  /2X  /m.T₂

so, C₂/C₁= 1/1

so, the ratio is 1: 1

a rocket engine can accelerate a rocket launched from rest vertically up with an acceleration of 22.9 m/s2. however, after 50.0
xxTIMURxx [149]

The acceleration of a rocket engine is given here, and after 50 seconds of flight, the engine fails, and we must determine the altitude of the rocket at the time the engine fails.  Because the rocket starts from rest, the time taken is 50 seconds, the initial velocity is zero, and the acceleration is 22.9 meters per second square. So we use the kinamatics equation s equal to v. I t plus half 8 square. There is no acceleration at the start. 22.9 and t is 50 seconds, so displacement 2.86 times 10 to the power 4 is met. This is the rocket's displacement in 50 seconds, so this is the rocket's altitude when the engine fails.

<h3>What exactly is accelerate?</h3>
  • In mechanics, acceleration is defined as the rate of change of an object's velocity with respect to time. Vector quantities are accelerations. The orientation of an object's acceleration is determined by the orientation of its net force.
  • In his second law of motion, Sir Isaac Newton (1642-1727) defined acceleration as the ratio of a force acting on an object to its mass: a = f/m.
  • Accelerate is a verb that means to speed up. When you press the gas pedal, the car accelerates. If you know someone who works at the consulate, you can speed up the process.
  • Acceleration is the rate at which velocity changes over time, both in terms of speed and direction. A point or object moving in a straight line is accelerated if it accelerates or decelerates.
  • Even if the speed is constant, motion on a circle is accelerated because the direction is constantly changing. Both effects contribute to acceleration in all other types of motion.

Hence, There is no acceleration at the start. 22. This is the rocket's displacement in 50 seconds, so this is the rocket's altitude when the engine fails.

if a body of mass 2kg moving with Velocity of 15m/s collides with a stationary body of same mass then after elastic collision 2n
pochemuha

Answer:

v = 15 [m/s]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the principle of conservation of linear momentum, which tells us that momentum is equal to the product of mass by Velocity.

P=m*v

where:

P = linear momentum [kg*m/s]

m = mass = 2 [kg]

v = velocity = 15 [m/s]

P=2*15\\P=30 [kg*m/s]

Since we know that momentum is conserved, that is, all momentum is transferred to the second body, we can determine the velocity of the second body, since the mass is equal to that of the first body.

30=2*v\\v = 30/2\\v = 15 [m/s]
