Answer:

v = 1.25 m/s

Explanation:

We have,

Distance covered by a person is 10 meters

Time taken by him to cover that distance is 8 seconds.

If we want to find the speed of a person, we must know distance covered by it and taken. In this case, we know both distance and time. His speed is given by :

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{10\ m}{8\ s}\\\\v=1.25\ m/s$

So, the speed of the person is 1.25 m/s.

A 1.50-mm-diameter glass sphere has a charge of + 1.60 nC. What speed does an electron need to orbit the sphere 1.60 mm above th

saveliy_v [14]

Answer :

Velocity will be $3.28\times 10^{-11}m/sec$

Explanation:

We have given glass surface has a diameter of 1.5 mm

And charge q = 1.60 nC

Radius of electrons orbit r = height of electron above surface + radius of sphere = $=1.6+\frac{1.5}{2}=2.35mm = 0.00235m$

Force on electron is given by $F=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon _0}\frac{qe}{r^2}$ , here q is charge on sphere and e is charge on electron

$F=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon _0}\frac{qe}{r^2}=\frac{kqe}{r^2}=\frac{9\times 10^9\times 1.6\times 10^{-9}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{0.00235^2}=4.172\times 10^{-13}N$

This force work as centripetal force

So $F=\frac{mv^2}{r}$

$4.172\times 10^{-13}=\frac{9.11\times 10^{-31}v^2}{0.00235}$

v = $=0.0328\times 10^{-9}=3.28\times 10^{-11}m/sec$

A certain atom has atomic number Z = 25 and atomic mass number A = 52. a. What is the approximate radius of the nucleus of this

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

a)The approximate radius of the nucleus of this atom is 4.656 fermi.

b) The electrostatic force of repulsion between two protons on opposite sides of the diameter of the nucleus is 2.6527

Explanation:

$r=r_o\times A^{\frac{1}{3}}$

$r_o=1.25 \times 10^{-15} m$ = Constant for all nuclei

r = Radius of the nucleus

A = Number of nucleons

a) Given atomic number of an element = 25

Atomic mass or nucleon number = 52

$r=1.25 \times 10^{-15} m\times (52)^{\frac{1}{3}}$

$r=4.6656\times 10^{-15} m=4.6656 fm$

The approximate radius of the nucleus of this atom is 4.656 fermi.

b) $F=k\times \frac{q_1q_2}{a^2}$

k= $9\times 10^9 N m^2/C^2$ = Coulombs constant

$q_1,q_2$ = charges kept at distance 'a' from each other

F = electrostatic force between charges

$q_1=+1.602\times 10^{-19} C$

$q_2=+1.602\times 10^{-19} C$

Force of repulsion between two protons on opposite sides of the diameter

$a=2\times r=2\times 4.6656\times 10^{-15} m=9.3312\times 10^{-15} m$

$F=9\times 10^9 N m^2/C^2\times \frac{(+1.602\times 10^{-19} C)\times (+1.602\times 10^{-19} C)}{(9.3312\times 10^{-15} m)^2}$

$F=2.6527 N$

The electrostatic force of repulsion between two protons on opposite sides of the diameter of the nucleus is 2.6527

a microwave uses a 14 a of electricity if 120 v is run through it what is the resistance of the microwave

Airida [17]

Resistance = voltage / current.

That's. 120v / 14A = 8.57 ohms.

By the way, voltage doesn't "run through" anything. Current does. That would be the 14 Amps.

How could you tell whether or not you are in a magnetic feild

Aleks04 [339]

Magnetic fields are areas where an object exhibits a magnetic influence. The fields affect neighboring objects along things called magnetic field lines. A magnetic object can attract or push away another magnetic object. You also need to remember that magnetic forces are NOT related to gravity. The amount of gravity is based on an object's mass, while magnetic strength is based on the material that the object is made of.
