At a certain elevation, the ________ , the air becomes saturated and water-vapor molecules ________.
andriy [413]

At certain altitude, the temperature of air decrease, The air becomes saturated and water vapour molecules starts condensing.


As the altitude of air increase, the atmospheric pressure decrease due to which the temperature of the air decrease. The water molecules in the atmosphere start condensing, which saturate the air (that is air can no hold water molecules), due to which the water vapour molecules starts condensing and falls on the earth in the form of rain.

An alpha particle (α), which is the same as a helium-4 nucleus, is momentarily at rest in a region of space occupied by an elec
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Speed = 575 m/s

Mechanical energy is conserved in electrostatic, magnetic and gravitational forces.

Explanation:

Given :

Potential difference, U = $-3.45 \times 10^{-3} \ V$

Mass of the alpha particle, $m_{\alpha} = 6.68 \times 10^{-27} \ kg$

Charge of the alpha particle is, $q_{\alpha} = 3.20 \times 10^{-19} \ C$

So the potential difference for the alpha particle when it is accelerated through the potential difference is

$U=\Delta Vq_{\alpha}$

And the kinetic energy gained by the alpha particle is

$K.E. =\frac{1}{2}m_{\alpha}v_{\alpha}^2 $

From the law of conservation of energy, we get

$K.E. = U$

$\frac{1}{2}m_{\alpha}v_{\alpha}^2 = \Delta V q_{\alpha}$

$v_{\alpha} = \sqrt{\frac{2 \Delta V q_{\alpha}}{m_{\alpha}}}$

$v_{\alpha} = \sqrt{\frac{2(3.45 \times 10^{-3 })(3.2 \times 10^{-19})}{6.68 \times 10^{-27}}}$

$v_{\alpha} \approx 575 \ m/s$

The mechanical energy is conserved in the presence of the following conservative forces :

-- electrostatic forces

-- magnetic forces

-- gravitational forces

Diffrence between FMRI and MRI?
love history [14]
FMRI creates the images or brain maps of brain functioning by setting up and utilizing an advanced MRI scanner in such a way that increased blood flow to the activated areas of the brain shows up on the MRI scan. The MRI scanners do not actually detect blood flow or other metabolic processes.

Which of the following cars have the most kinetic energy
faltersainse [42]
<h2>Hey There!</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>

\huge\boxed{OptionA}

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>DATA:</h2><h3>Blue Car: </h3>

mass = 4 kg

velocity = 5 m/s^2

<h3 /><h3>Orange truck:</h3>

Mass= 2kg

Velocity = 7m/s^2

<h3 /><h3>Grey Car:</h3>

mass = 6 kg

velocity = 4m/s^2

<h3 /><h3>Green Car:</h3>

Mass = 8 kg

Velocity = 3 m/s^2

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>SOLUTION:</h2>

By the equation of kinetic energy,

                                       

                                         K.E = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Where,

            K.E is kinetic energy

            m is mass

            v is velocity

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h3>Kinetic energy of Blue car:</h3>

 

Directly substitute the variables in the equation,

                                       

                                       K.E = \frac{1}{2}x4x5^2

Simplify the equation,

                                       K.E = 50 J

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h3>Kinetic Energy of Silver Car:</h3>

                                           

 Directly substitude the variable in the equation,

                                                           

                                        K.E = \frac{1}{2}x6x4^2

Simplify the equation,

                                        K.E = 48J

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h3>Kinetic Energy of Green Car:</h3><h3 />

Substitute the variables in the equation,

                                         

                                         K.E = \frac{1}{2}x8x3^2

Simplify the Equation,

                                         

                                         K.E = 36J

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h3>Kinetic Energy of Orange Truck:</h3><h3 />

Substitute the variable,

                                        K.E = \frac{1}{2}x 2x7^2

Simplify the equation,

                                     

                                        K.E = 49J

<h2>_____________________________________</h2>

As you can see that the highest value of kinetic energy is of Blue SUV thus it will be out answer.
