Answer:

1)The mass of water increases.

2) Freezing point of water decreases.

4) bouyancy of objects in the water increases.

Salinity in the oceanic water is attributed by the water coming from other sources like rivers carrying rocks and soil containing salt. Salinity decreases the temperature of water, making it cold and more denser. The cold water settles at the bottom of the ocean. It flows across the oceanic basins as slow currents. The objects being less in density flows over the surface of water. Hence,bouyancy of objects in water increases.

Three point charges are placed on the y-axis: a charge q at y=a, a charge –2q at the origin, and a charge q at y= –a. Such an ar

Answer:

electric field Et = kq [1 / (x-a)² -2 / x² + 1 / (x+a)²]

Explanation:

The electric field is a vector, so it must be added as vectors, in this problem both the charges and the calculation point are on the same x-axis so we can work in a single dimension, remembering that the test charge is always positive whereby the direction of the field will depend on the load under analysis, if the field is positive, if the field is negative.

a) Let's write the electric field for each charge and the total field

E = k q /r

With k the Coulomb constant, q the charge and r the distance of the charge to the test point

Et = E1 + E2 + E3

E1 = k q / (x-a)²

E2 = k (-2q) / x²

E3 = k q / (x + a)²

Et = kq [1 / (x-a)² -2 / x² + 1 / (x+a)²]

The direction of the field is along the x axis

b) To use a binomial expansion we must have an expression the form (1-x)⁻ⁿ where x << 1, for this we take factor like x from all the equations

Et = kq/ x² [1 / (1-a/x)² - 2 + 1 / (1+a/x)²]

We use binomial expansion

(1+x)⁻² = 1 -nx + n (n-1) 2! x² +… x << 1

(1-x)⁻² = 1 +nx + n (n-1) 2! x² + ...

They replace in the total field and leaving only the first terms

Et =kq/x² [-2 +(1 +2 a/x + 2 (2-1)/2 (a/x)² +…) + (1 -2 a/x + 2(2-1) /2 (a/x)² +.) ]

Et = kq/x² [a²/x² + a²/x²2] = kq /x² [2 a²/x²]

Et = k q 2a²/x⁴

point charge

Et = k q 1/x²

E = k q a/x³

Is is false or true The closer objects are, the stronger the gravitational force between them.

____ [38]

Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

The gravitational force between two objects becomes weaker if the two objects are moved apart and stronger if they are brought closer together; that is, the force depends on the distance between the objects

A small airplane with a wingspan of 18.0 m is flying due north at a speed of 63.6 m/s over a region where the vertical component

choli [55]

Answer:

(a) ε = 1373.8.

(b) The wingtip which is at higher potential.

Explanation:

(a) Finding the potential difference between the airplane wingtips.

Given the parameters

wingspan of the plane is = 18.0m

speed of the plane in north direction is = 70.0m/s

magnetic field of the earth is = 1.20μT

The potential difference is given as:

ε = Blv

where ε = potential difference of wingtips

B = magnetic field of earth

l = wingspan of airplane

v = speed of airplane

ε = 1.2 x 18.0 x 63.6

ε = 1373.8

(b) Which wingtip is at higher potential?

The wingtip which is at higher potential.

Singly charged gas ions are accelerated from rest through a voltage of 10.3 V. At what temperature (in K) will the average kinet

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

Temperature of the gas molecules is 7.96 x 10⁴ K

Explanation:

Given :

Ions accelerated through voltage, V = 10.3 volts

The work done to change the position of singly charged gas ions is given by the relation :

W = q x V

Here q is charge of the ions and its value is 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C.

Average kinetic energy of gas molecules is given by the relation:

K.E. = $\frac{3}{2}kT$

Here T is temperature and k is Boltzmann constant and its value is 1.38 x 10⁻²³ J/K.

According to the problem, the average kinetic energy of gas is equal to the work done to move the singly charged ions, i.e. ,

K.E. = W

$\frac{3}{2}kT = qV$

Rearrange the above equation in terms of T :

$T= \frac{2qV}{3k}$

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

$T=\frac{2\times1.6\times10^{-19}\times10.3 }{3\times1.38\times10^{-23} }$

T = 7.96 x 10⁴ K
