You're talking about a grain of sand or a stone or a rock that's drifting in space, and then the Earth happens to get in the way, so the stone falls down to Earth, and it makes a bright streak of light while it's falling through the atmosphere and burning up from the friction.
-- While it's drifting in space, it's a <em>meteoroid</em>.
-- While it's falling through the atmosphere burning up and making a bright streak of light, it's a <em>meteor</em>.
-- If it doesn't completely burn up and there's some of it left to fall on the ground, then the leftover piece on the ground is a <em>meteorite</em>.
Answer:
doughnut-shaped chamber called the tokamak. This is where the fusion reactions take place, within hot plasma containing deuterium and tritium atoms.
Answer:
10.6 mA
Explanation:
t = time interval = 1.00 s
q = magnitude of charge on each ion = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C
n₁ = number of Na⁺ ions = 2.68 x 10¹⁶
q₁ = charge due to Na⁺ ions = n₁ q = (2.68 x 10¹⁶) (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹) = 0.004288 C
n₂ = number of Cl⁻ ions = 3.92 x 10¹⁶
q₂ = charge due to Cl⁻ ions = n₂ q = (3.92 x 10¹⁶) (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹) = 0.006272 C
i₁ = Current due to Na⁺ ions =
=
= 0.004288 A
i₂ = Current due to Cl⁻ ions =
=
= 0.006272 A
Current passing between the electrodes is given as
i = i₁ + i₂
i = 0.004288 + 0.006272
i = 0.01056 A
i = 10.6 x 10⁻³ A
i = 10.6 mA
Answer:
There are four basic states of matter
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Newton’s Second Law of Motion
Newton’s Second Law of Motion states that ‘when an object is acted on by an outside force, the mass of the object equals the strength of the force times the resulting acceleration’.
This can be demonstrated dropping a rock or and tissue at the same time from a ladder. They fall at an equal rate—their acceleration is constant due to the force of gravity acting on them.
The rock's impact will be a much greater force when it hits the ground, because of its greater mass. If you drop the two objects into a dish of water, you can see how different the force of impact for each object was, based on the splash made in the water by each one.
