I'm assuming it was to keep the data consistent? The further you are from a heat source the less heat will get to you as the temperature tries to reach equilibrium and the waves start to spread out, so you should keep everything the same distance to get consistent results. I don't have any information so this is just my assumption

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

The bulb is not powered because the negative end of the battery is not connected to the electric current,making it dysfunctional. The electrons have to flow through the positive and negative ends of the battery in order for it to work.

Hope this helps.

A singly charged ion of 7Li (an isotope of lithium which lost only one electron) has a mass of 1.16 ×10^-26 kg. It is accelerate
MaRussiya [10]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of lithium, m=1.16\times 10^{-26}\ kg

It is accelerated through a potential difference, V = 224 V

Uniform magnetic field, B = 0.724 T

Applying the conservation of energy as :

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=qV

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2qV}{m}}

q is the charge on an electron

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C\times 224\ V}{1.16\times 10^{-26}\ kg}}

v = 78608.58 m/s

v=7.86\times 10^4\ m/s

To find the radius of the ion's path in the magnetic field. The centripetal force is balanced by the magnetic force as :

qvB=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

r=\dfrac{mv}{qB}

r=\dfrac{1.16\times 10^{-26}\ kg\times 7.86\times 10^4\ m/s}{1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C\times 0.724\ T}

r = 0.0078 meters

So, the radius of the path of the ion is 0.0078 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

Part K Find the y-component of the stone's velocity when it is 8.00 m below your hand
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

The y-component of the stone's velocity when it is 8 m below the hand is 14.86 m / s

v² = u² + 2 a s

s = Displacement

u = Initial velocity

a = Acceleration

u = 8 m / s

s = 8 m

v² = 8² + 2 * 9.8 * 8

v² = 64 + 156.8

v = √ 220.8

v = 14.86 m / s

The equation used to solve the problem is an equation of motion. These equations are designed to locate an object in motion using components such as velocity, displacement, acceleration and time.

Therefore, the y-component of the stone's velocity is 14.86 m / s
