Answer:

Answer is explained below;

Explanation:

Electrolytes are any substances that dissociate into charged particles called ions when dissolved in water. The positively charged ions called cations and the negatively charged ions called anions move toward the negative and positive terminals (cathode and anode) of an electric circuit.

When a substance dissolved in water completely dissociates into ions, it is called a strong electrolyte. The aqueous solutions containing strong electrolytes conduct electricity very well and the examples include strong acids and soluble ionic compounds such as barium chloride, sodium hydroxide, etc.  

When a substance dissolved in water does not completely dissociate into ions, it is called a weak electrolyte. Since the aqueous solutions containing weak electrolytes have relatively few ions, their electrical conductivity is very low compared to the solutions containing strong electrolytes. Examples of weak electrolytes include weak acids and bases like acetic acid, ammonia, etc.

When a substance does not dissociate into ions when dissolved in water, it is called a nonelectrolyte. Since the aqueous solutions containing nonelectrolytes do not contain any ions, such solutions do not conduct electricity. Examples of nonelectrolytes are ethanol, aldehydes, glucose, ketones, etc.

If a solution contains dissolved ions, it conducts electricity and as the ion concentration increases, the conductivity also increases. To determine whether the aqueous solutions of six different substances are strong, weak, or nonelectrolytes, we can test them by applying a voltage to electrodes immersed in the solutions and a light bulb. By observing the brightness of the light bulb or by measuring the flow of electrical current, we can find out which solution contains a strong electrolyte or weak electrolyte, or nonelectrolyte.

If the solution contains a nonelectrolyte, the current flow is nil and the light bulb does not glow. If the solution contains a strong electrolyte, the current flow is very strong and so the brightness of the light bulb is very high. If the solution contains a weak electrolyte, the current flow is much low compared to the strong electrolyte and the light bulb glows, but the brightness is very low.

An electron in a vacuum is first accelerated by a voltage of 51400 V and then enters a region in which there is a uniform magnet
zimovet [89]

Answer:

       F = 8.6 10⁻¹² N

Explanation:

For this exercise we use the law of conservation of energy

Initial. Field energy with the electron at rest

         Em₀ = U = q ΔV

Final. Electron with velocity, just out of the electric field

         Emf = K = ½ m v²

          Em₀ = Emf

          e ΔV = ½ m v²

          v =√ 2 e ΔV / m

          v = √(2 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ 51400 / 9.1 10⁻³¹)

           v = √(1.8075 10¹⁶)

           v = 1,344 10⁸ m / s

Now we can use the equation of the magnetic force

         F = q v x B

Since the speed and the magnetic field are perpendicular the force that

        F = e v B

        F = 1.6 10⁻¹⁹  1.344 10⁸ 0.4

       For this exercise we use the law of conservation of energy

Initial. Field energy with the electron at rest

         Emo = U = q DV

Final. Electron with velocity, just out of the electric field

         Emf = K = ½ m v2

          Emo = Emf

          .e DV = ½ m v2

          .v = RA 2 e DV / m

          .v = RA (2 1.6 10-19 51400 / 9.1 10-31)

           .v = RA (1.8075 10 16)

           .v = 1,344 108 m / s

Now we can use the equation of the magnetic force

         F = q v x B

Since the speed and the magnetic field are perpendicular the force that

        F = e v B

       F = 1.6 10-19 1,344 108 0.4

       F = 8.6 10-12 N

A solid brass cylinder and a solid wood cylinder have the same radius and mass (the wood cylinder is longer). Released together
Lena [83]

Answer:

a. They will be tie

b. Win the wood cylinder

Explanation:

a.

The both cylinders will reach the bottom at the same time notice the relation in the equation in indepent of the length and both have the same radius and the same rotational inertia.

I=\frac{1}{2}*m*r^2

a=\frac{g*sin(\beta)}{1+I_{com}/m*r^2}

So both will be tie

b.

a_{brass}=\frac{g*sin(\beta)}{1+I_{brass}/m*r^2}=a_{wood}=\frac{g*sin(\beta)}{1+I_{wood}/m*r^2}

The acceleration of the wood cylinder is larger than the acceleration of the brass cylinder so the cylinder of wood will reach the bottom first

a_{brass}

So the wood win the race

What are the two principle advantages of telescopes over eyes?
Stells [14]

Answer:

i) Telescopes can be used to view far distant objects but the human eye can't view far distant objects.

ii) Telescopes uses two convex lenses producing a magnified image while the human eye only possesses one convex lens (image seen are smaller than that viewed under telescopes)

Explanation:

The telescopes can be used to view far distant objects due to their presence of two convex lenses. The two convex lenses are the objective lens (lens closer to object) and the eye piece lens (lens closer to eye). The object to be viewed forms an intermediate image first before the final image is seen using the eye piece lens.

The human eye only possess one convex lens and as such cannot view far ranged objects.
