Physics

Answer:

Explanation:

The buoyant force depends on the volume of the body

Buoyant force = Volume immersed x density of fluid x gravity

So, the density of fluid that means air is same for both the cases, but the volume of 1 kg helium balloon is more than the density of iron, so the buoyant force on helium is more than the buoyant force on iron.

It all depends on the SIZE of the balloon.

If the balloon is made of really tough rubber, and it holds the helium in the same volume as the solid iron block, then the buoyant force of the atmosphere is the same for both objects.

But if the balloon is just some flimsy stuff, and it lets the helium expand to a much bigger volume than the iron block, then the buoyant force on the balloon is greater than the buoyant force on the solid iron block.

In fact, it DOESN'T MATTER what's in the balloon and what's in the block.  It doesn't matter whether either one of them is solid, liquid, or gas, and it doesn't matter whether they have the same or different mass.  

Whichever one has greater VOLUME has a greater buoyant force of atmosphere acting on it.

g suppose he used an alpha particle with an energy of 8.3 MeV, what would be the speed of this alpha particle
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

<em>speed of the alpha particle is 2 x 10^7 m/s.</em>

Explanation:

energy of alpha particle = 8.3 Mev

1 Mev = 1.602 x 10^-13 J

8.3 Mev = x

solving, x = 8.3 x 1.602 x 10^-13 = 1.329 x 10^-12 J

mass of a alpha particle = 6.645 x 10^−27 kg

The energy of the alpha particle is the kinetic energy KE of the alpha particle

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

where m is the mass of the alpha particle

v is  the velocity of the alpha particle

substituting values, we have

1.329 x 10^-12 = \frac{1}{2}*6.645*10^{-27}*v^{2}

v^{2} = 4 x 10^14

v = \sqrt{4*10^{14} } = <em>2 x 10^7 m/s</em>

Earth rotates on its axis once every 24 hours, so that objects on its surface execute uniform circular motion about the axis wit
fgiga [73]

Answer:

The effect of this rotation on the person on the surface is the sky is moving, like an apparent diurnal motion.

Explanation:

<em>For an observer at a fixed position on Earth, the rotation of earth makes it appear as if the sky is revolving around the earth. In other words, if a person is standing for long enough in a field at night, it looks like the sky is moving, not the person. This motion is called "apparent diurnal motion." </em>

<em>Diurnal means having to do with a day, in a sense of a 24- hour period.</em>

How do you know if an experimental result is acceptable or trustworthy? What gives you confidence that your data are trustworthy
Virty [35]

Explanation:

For an experimental result to be considered acceptable, all relevant variables involved in the experiment must be taken into account, by isolating it, performing it under controlled conditions and modifying the conditions under which it takes place. This, with the objective of excluding alternative explanations in the analisis of the experimental data. Therefore, if these steps are followed appropriately, experimental data are trustworthy. The reliability of the experiment increases when it is replicated by other researchers and the same results are obtained.
