Which statements accurately describe electronic tools? Check all that apply.
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Electronic tools provide accurate data

Explanation:

The sentence "Electronic tools provide accurate data analysis" is the only correct of all the options shown, because it is the only sentence that describes a characteristic present in all the electronic tools. The other options are not all electronic tools, but each option represents a type of electronic tool, depending on the time and technology used to build the tool.

Suppose that we use a heater to boil liquid nitrogen (N2 molecules). 4480 J of heat turns 20 g of liquid nitrogen into gas. Note
love history [14]

Answer:

The energy is 9.4\times10^{-21}\ J

(a) is correct option

Explanation:

Given that,

Energy = 4480 j

Weight of nitrogen = 20 g

Boil temperature = 77 K

Pressure = 1 atm

We need to calculate the internal energy

Using first law of thermodynamics

Q=\Delta U+W

Q=\Delta U+nRT

Put the value into the formula

4480=\Delta U+\dfrac{20}{28}\times8.314\times77

\Delta U=4480-\dfrac{20}{28}\times8.314\times77

\Delta U=4022.73\ J

We need to calculate the number of molecules in 20 g N₂

Using formula of number of molecules

N=n\times \text{Avogadro number}

Put the value into the formula

N=\dfrac{20}{28}\times6.02\times10^{23}

N=4.3\times10^{23}

We need to calculate the energy

Using formula of energy

E=\dfrac{\Delta U}{N}

Put the value into the formula

E=\dfrac{4022.73}{4.3\times10^{23}}

E=9.4\times10^{-21}\ J

Hence, The energy is 9.4\times10^{-21}\ J

soldier1979 [14.2K]
The formula that will be used in this problem is E = q/ 4pi*r^2 z where z is the elctric charge constant equal to 8.854  *10 ^-12. The magnitude using r equal to 0.0525 m and q equal to -22.3 *10^-6 C is equal to -22.3 *10^-6/ 4pi*(0.0525)^2 *8.854  *10 ^-12 or equal to -7.272 *10 ^7. The magnitude 5 cm outside the surface is -22.3 *10^-6<span>/ 4pi*(0.0525+0.05)^2 *8.854  *10 ^-12 equal to -1.908 *10^7.

Explain how force and surface area affect the applied pressure.​
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

force and surface area are two factors affecting pressure on solids

more the force you apply, more will be the pressure

pressure and force are directly proportional meaning if Force is greater, pressure will also be greater

more the surface area of the solid less will be the pressure

surface area and pressure are inversely proportional meaning if surface are is big, pressure will be less, surface area small, pressure will be greater
