Charge q is accelerated starting from rest up to speed v through the potential difference V. What speed will charge q have after
adoni [48]

Answer: v = 1.19 * 10^{6} m/s

Explanation: q = magnitude of electronic charge = 1.609 * 10^{-19} c

mass of an electronic charge = 9.10 * 10^{-31} kg

V= potential difference = 4V

v = velocity of electron

by using the work- energy theorem which states that the kinetic energy of the the electron must equal the work done use in accelerating the electron.

kinetic energy = \frac{mv^{2} }{2},  potential energy = qV

hence, \frac{mv^{2} }{2} = qV

\frac{9.10 *10^{-31} * v^{2}  }{2} = 1.609 * 10^{-16} * 4\\\\\\\\9.10*10^{-31}  * v^{2} = 2 * 1.609 *10^{-16} * 4\\\\\\9.10 *10^{-31} * v^{2} = 1.287 *10^{-15} \\\\v^{2} = \frac{1.287 *10^{-15} }{9.10 *10^{31} } \\\\v^{2} = 1.414*10^{15} \\\\v = \sqrt{1.414*10^{15} } \\\\v = 1.19 * 10^{6} m/s

what is required to bring about a phase change 1.an increase or decrease in pressure 2.an increase or decrease in energy 3.an in
frozen [14]

Answer

Correct answers are 1.an increase or decrease in pressure 2.an increase or decrease in energy

Explanation

All existing matter can undergo phase change it means they may transform from one state to another. phase change of a matter  may occur due to change in energy and change in pressures.

for example there is an ice cube which is a solid and if  we want to change it phase into liquid water for that purpose we have to supply some energy to ice cube it means we have to give some heat to ice cube. After supplying heat energy to the ice it will turn into water it means there is phase change from solid to liquid due to supplying the heat. Similarly we can change the liquid water into solid ice cube by taking heat energy(reducing temperature) from the liquid water  .

In some cases the matter doesn't want to undergo phase transformation. For example, oxygen will solidify at -361.8 degrees Fahrenheit at standard pressure.But , it can change to solid state at warmer temperatures when the pressure is increased.

The length of a football field is closest to<br> (1) 1000 cm (3) 1000 km<br> (2) 1000 dm (4) 1000 mm
Sergeu [11.5K]

For this case, the first thing you should know is that the length of a football field is around 100 meters.

We must then look for a measure close to this value.

We have the following unit conversion:

1 meter = 10 decimeters

Applying the conversion we have:

(1000 dm)*(\frac{1}{10} \frac{m}{dm}) = 100 m

Therefore, the measure closest to a soccer field is:

1000 dm

Answer:

The length of a football field is closest to:

(2) 1000 dm
