A geologist is studying rock layers in an old river bed, and he finds a fossil of a fish and a horsetail rush in the same rock layer. According to the law of faunal and floral succession, the geologist can assume that the rock containing the fossils may date back as far as the <span>Devonian period</span>.

An atom of sodium-23 (atomic number = 11) has a positive charge of +1. Given this information, how many

12345 [234]

It has a 10 electrons. Since it's atomic number is 11 it must have 11 protons. Also, given that it has a +1 charge, it has one less electron than protons since they have equal but opposite charges. The number of protons is the mass number minus the atomic number = 23-11= 12 neutrons.

A loop of area 0.250 m^2 is in a uniform 0.020 0-T magnetic field. If the flux through the loop is 3.83 × 10-3T· m2, what angle

dangina [55]

Answer:

40.0⁰

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the magnetic flux is expressed as:

$\phi = BAcos\theta$ where:

$\phi$ is the magnetic flux

B is the magnetic field

A is the cross sectional area

$\theta$ is the angle that the normal to the plane of the loop make with the direction of the magnetic field.

Given

A = 0.250m²

B = 0.020T

$\phi$ = 3.83 × 10⁻³T· m²

3.83 × 10⁻³ = 0.020*0.250cosθ

3.83 × 10⁻³ = 0.005cosθ

cosθ = 0.00383/0.005

cosθ = 0.766

θ = cos⁻¹0.766

θ = 40.0⁰

<em>Hence the angle normal to the plane of the loop make with the direction of the magnetic field is 40.0⁰</em>

In an inelastic collision a 2.5 kg ball moving at 7.5 m/s is caught by a 70kg man while the man is standing on ice. What is the

MrRa [10]

The velocity of the ball and the man is 0.259 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of momentum. In fact, in an isolated system, the total momentum before and after the collision must be conserved. Therefore, for the ball-man system, we can write:

$p_i = p_f\\m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v$
