Explanation:

The chemical properties of an element are determined by the configuration of its electrons in orbit around its nucleus. ... See a Periodic Table of the Elements. The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom is its Atomic Number.

You are working in cooperation with the Public Health department to design an electrostatic trap for particles from auto emissio

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that:

Charge (q) on the particle = 3 × 10⁻⁸ C

mass (m) of the particle = 6 × 10⁻⁹ kg

at a distance x = 15 cm , the velocity in the plate = 900 m/s²

For the square plate, the surface charged density σ = -8 × 10⁻⁶ C/m²

To start with calculating the electric field as a result of the square plate; we use the formula;

$E = \dfrac{\sigma }{2 \varepsilon_o}$

$E = \dfrac{8 \times 10^{-6} }{2 \times 8.85 \times 10^{-12}}$

$E = 4.51977 \times 10^5 \ V/m$

On the square plate; The electric force F = Eq

$F = (4.51977 \times 10^5 \ V/m )(3\times 10^{-8} \ C)$

$F = 1.3559 \times 10^{-2} \ N$

The acceleration $a =\dfrac{ F}{m}{$

$a = \dfrac{1.3559\times 10^{-2} \ N}{6 \times 10^{-9} \ Kg}$

$a = 2.25988 \times 10^6 \ m/s^2$

For the particle, the velocity at distance x = 7 m can be calculated by using the formula:

$(\dfrac{1}{2}) mv^2 = \Delta Vq$

$v^2 = \dfrac{2 Eq}{dm}$

$v^2 = \dfrac{2 * 4.51977 \times 10^5 \times 3 \times 10^{-8} }{0.07 \times 6\times 10^{-9} }$

$v^2 = 64568142.86 \ m/s$

$v =\sqrt{ 64568142.86 \ m/s}$

$\mathbf{v = 8.035 \times 10^3 \ m/s}$

From the calculation, we realize that the charge acting between the particle and the plate is said to be "opposite".

Hence, the force is an attractive force.

Similarly, there is a gradual increase exhibited by the velocity of the particle.

Therefore, the particles get to the detector, but the detector failed to get detect due to the velocity which is greater than 1000 m/s.

NASA is giving serious consideration to the concept of solar sailing. A solar sailcraft uses a large, low- mass sail and the ene

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

d. The sail should be reflective because in this case the momentum transferred to the sail per unit area per unit time is larger than for absorbing sail, therefore the radiation pressure is larger for the reflective sail.

Explanation:

Let us take the momentum of a photon unit as u

we know that the rate of change of momentum is proportional to the force exerted.

For a absorbing surface, the photon is absorbed, therefore the final momentum is zero. From this we can say that

F = (u - 0)/t = u/t

for a unit time, the force is proportional to the momentum of the wave due to its energy density. Therefore,

F = u

For a reflecting surface, the momentum of the wave strikes the sail and changes direction. Since we know that the speed of light does not change, then the force is proportional to

F = (u - (-u))/t = 2u/t

just as the we did above, it becomes

F = 2u.

From this we can see that the force for a reflective sail is twice of that for an absorbing sail, and we know that the pressure is proportional to the force for a given area. From these, we conclude that the sail should be reflective because in this case the momentum transferred to the sail per unit area per unit time is larger than for absorbing sail, therefore the radiation pressure is larger for the reflective sail.

If a football player does 39000 J of work, how much power does the football player exert in 5 minutes

Drupady [299]

Answer:

Power = 130 watt

Explanation:

Power is described as the ability to do work, it is also defined as the amount of work in Joules done in a given time in seconds. Mathematically, it is represented as:

$power = \frac{work (J)}{Time (s)}$

In this example, power is calculated as follows:

Work = 39000 J

Time = 5 minutes

converting the time from minutes to seconds:

1 minute = 60 seconds

∴ 5 minutes = 60 × 5 = 300 seconds

$\therefore power = \frac{39000}{300} \\power = 130 watt$

N:B the unit for power can also be represented as Joules/seconds or J/s or JS⁻¹

A chair of weight 95.0N lies atop a horizontal floor; the floor is not frictionless. You push on the chair with a force of F = 3

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

118.4 N

Explanation:

weight of chair, mg = 95 N

Push, F = 39 N

Ф = 37 ° below x axis

Let n be the normal force.

So, by using the diagram and resolve the components of Force F.

n = mg + F SinФ

n = 95 + 39 Sin 37°

n = 95 + 39 x 0.6

n = 118.4 N
