A regular atom has a net charge of _____

1 answer:

5 0

An atom is defined as having the same number of electrons (negative charge), protons (positive charge) and neutrons (no charge). This means that it will have the same amount of negative and positive charge, giving it a net zero charge. On the other hand, an ion has different amount of electrons and protons.

Two spherical conductors are separated by a distance much larger than either of their radii. Sphere A has a radius of 11.5 cm an

bonufazy [111]

Explanation:

As the given spheres are connected by a thin wire so, the potential on the spheres are the same.

$\frac{q_{1}}{r_{1}} = \frac{q_{2}}{r_{2}}$ ......... (1)

Hence, total charge will be as follows.

$q_{1} + q_{2}$ = Q = -95.5 nC .......... (2)

Using the above two equations, the final equation will be as follows.

$q_{2} = \frac{Qr_{2}}{r_{1} + r_{2}}$

and, $q_{1} = \frac{Qr_{1}}{r_{1} + r_{2}}$

Hence, we will calculate the charge on sphere B after the equilibrium is reached as follows.

$q_{2} = \frac{Qr_{2}}{r_{1} + r_{2}}$

= $\frac{-95.5 \times 74.4 cm}{(11.5 + 74.4) cm}$

= 82.714 nC

Thus, we can conclude that the charge on sphere B after equilibrium has been reached is 82.714 nC.

A loop of area 0.100 m² is oriented at a 15.5 degree angle to a 0.500 T magnetic field. It rotates until it is at a 45.0 degree

MatroZZZ [7]

The resulting change in the magnetic flux is =0.013Wb

what is magnetic flux?

Magnetic flux is defined as the number of magnetic field lines passing through a given closed surface. It provides the measurement of the total magnetic field that passes through a given surface area

Given:

At degree =15.5°,magnetic flux=magnetic field=0.500T

At degree=45.0°, magnetic field=0.500T

Magnetic flux=magnetic field ×Area×cos(angle)

magnetic flux (1) = 0.500×0.1×cos(15.5)

= 0.048

magnetic flux (2) = 0.500×0.1×cos(45)

=0.035

Resulting change in flux = 0.048-0.035

= 0.013Wb

A student fills a tank of radius r with water to a height of h1 and pokes a small, 1.0 cm diameter hole at a distance h2 from th

Alik [6]

when a hole is made at the bottom of the container then water will flow out of it

The speed of ejected water can be calculated by help of Bernuolli's equation and Equation of continuity.

By Bernoulli's equation we can write

$Po + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2 + \rho g h = Po + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2 + \rho g *0$

Now by equation of continuity

$A_1v_1 = A_2v_2$

$\pi (0.2)^2 v_1 = \pi (0.01)^2 v_2$

from above equation we can say that speed at the top layer is almost negligible.

$v_1 = 0$

now again by equation of continuity

$\rho g h = \frac{1}{2} \rho v^2$

$v = \sqrt{2 g h}$

here we have

$h = h_1 - h_2$

$h = 0.50 - 0.03 = 0.47m$

now speed is given by

$v = \sqrt{2* 9.8 * 0.47}$

$v = 3.03 m/s$

a mass on a spring vibrates in simple harmonic motion at an amplitude of 8.0 cm. if the mass of the object is 0.20kg and the spr

Reil [10]

Answer:

4.06 Hz

Explanation:

For simple harmonic motion, frequency is given by

$f=\frac {1}{2\pi}\times \sqrt{\frac {k}{m}}$ where k is spring constant and m is the mass of the object.

Substituting 0.2 Kg for mass and 130 N/m for k then

$f=\frac {1}{2\pi}\times \sqrt{\frac {130}{0.2}}=4.057670803\\f\approx 4.06 Hz$

Explain the origin of the magnitude designation for determining the brightness of stars. Why does it seem to go backward, with s

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Hipparchus was an ancient Greek who classified stars based on the brightness in 129 B.C. He grouped the brightest stars and ranked them 1 (first magnitude) and dimmest stars as 6 (sixth magnitude). Thus, the smaller numbers indicated brighter stars. Now, the scale extends in negative axis as well. More the negative number, brighter is the star. For example, Sun has magnitude -26.74.

This the apparent magnitude which means the classification is based on the brightness of the star as it appears from the Earth.
