An electron is much _ than a proton but has an equally strong (Though opposite) __.

1 answer:

4 0

When you get down to that scale, physical size doesnt mean much. But we do know that its mass is much less than the mass of the proton. It takes about 1840 electrons to have the same mass as one proton. The charges on the electron and proton are equal and opposite. The charge on the proton is what we call positive charge. The charge on the electron is what we call a negative charge.

When force is applied to a breaker bar the torque can be calculated by multiplying the length of the lever by the?

Nimfa-mama [501]

When a force applied to a breaker bar the torque can be calculated by multiplying the<u> length of the lever</u> by the tangential component of force on the lever.

<h3>What is torque?</h3>

Torque is the <u>rotating equivalent</u> of force in physics and mechanics. Depending on the subject of study, it is also known as the moment, moment of force, rotating force, or turning effect. It illustrates how a force can cause a change in the body's rotational motion.

Torque is given by the formula :

α = r x F ( bold letters represent vector quantities)

The S.I. unit for torque is : N - m ( Newton - meter)

<h3>How do we define 1 N-m of torque?</h3>

The newton-metre is a torque unit (also known as a moment) in the SI system. The torque produced by a one newton force applied <u>perpendicularly to the end of a one metre long</u> moment arm is known as a newton-metre.

On a winter day with a temperature of -10°C, 500g of snow (water ice) is brought inside where the temperature is 18 °C. The snow

Serjik [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mass of ice m = 500g = .5 kg

Heat required to raise the temperature of ice by 10 degree

= mass of ice x specific heat of ice x change in temperature

= .5 x 2093 x 10 J

10465 J

Heat required to melt the ice

= mass of ice x latent heat

0.5 x 334 x 10³ J

167000 J

Heat required to raise its temperature to 18 degree

= mass x specific heat of water x rise in temperature

= .5 x 4182 x 18

=37638 J

Total heat

=10465 +167000+ 37638

=215103 J

Microwave ovens emit microwave energy with a wavelength of 12.2 cm. What is the energy of exactly one photon of this microwave r

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

$1.63\cdot 10^{-24} J$

Explanation:

The energy of a photon is given by:

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}$

where

h is the Planck constant

c is the speed of light

$\lambda$ is the wavelength of the photon

In this problem, we have a microwave photon with wavelength

$\lambda=12.2 cm=0.122 m$

Substituting into the equation, we find its energy:

$E=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34} Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{0.122 m}=1.63\cdot 10^{-24} J$

Describe how electricity flows through a simple closed circuit.

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

Electrons are drawn from one end of the battery to the other. Connecting two of those ends allows an electric current to flow between them. Wires make a path through that current can flow from one end of a battery to the other end, which would be considered as: The north and east side

The acceleration due to gravity on Mars is less than that on Earth. On Mars, a person will weigh than on Earth.

pantera1 [17]

On mars people would way less.
An example of this is that if I weighed 700 pounds (I don't by the way) I would then weigh 500 pounds or less.
