Answer:

Saturated zone is area below the water table in which the soil is completely saturated with groundwater.

Explanation:

The saturated zone lies below the ground. It is mainly the lower zone of rock along with the water table where pore spaces are completely filled with water. Even the saturated zone is sometimes separated into 2 subzones: the phreatic zone and the capillary fringe.

The area where pores spaces are not saturated with water is also unsaturated zone. Localized saturated zones can occur within the unsaturated zone. The unsaturated zone lies above the groundwater table.

An alpha particle can be produced in certain radioactive decays of nuclei and consists of two protons and two neutrons. The part

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

charge, q = 2e = 2 x 1.6 x 10^-19 C = 3.2 x 10^-19 C

mass, m = 4 u = 4 x 1.661 x 10^-27 kg = 6.644 x 10^-27 kg

Radius, r = 4.5 cm = 0.045 m

Magnetic field, B = 1.20 T

(a) Let the speed is v.

$v=\frac{Bqr}{m}$

$v=\frac{1.20\times 3.2\times 10^{-19}\times 0.045}{6.644\times 10^{-27}}$

v = 2.6 x 10^6 m/s

(b) Let T be the period of revolution

$T=\frac{2\pi r}{v}$

$T=\frac{2\times 3.14\times 0.045}{2.6\times 10^{6}}$

T = 1.09 x 10^-7 s

$K=\frac{B^{2}\times q^{2}\times r^{2}}{2m}$

$K=\frac{\left ( 1.20\times 3.2 \times 10^{-19}\times 0.045 \right )^{2}}{2\times 6.644\times 10^{-27}}$

K = 2.25 x 10^-14 J

(d) Let the potential difference is V.

K = qV

$V = \frac{K}{q}$

$V= \frac{2.25\times 10^-14}{3.2\times 10^{-19}}$

V = 70312.5 V

Why do high and low tides happen 1 hour later each day? just answer please and it is a written response

8_murik_8 [283]

With each passing day, the high tides occur about an hour later. The moon rises about an hour later each day, too (actually, 54 minutes later). Since the moon pulls up the tides, these two delays are connected. As the earth rotates through one day, the moon moves in its orbit.
