Which statements about Earth’s core help explain Earth’s magnetic field? Check all that apply.
Stella [2.4K]

All the statements can be used to explain about Earth's magnetic field.

Earth's magnetic field is almost same to that of the bar magnet. The magnetic field of the earth occurs from its core. It has an inner core which is solid in nature. in the outer core, there is a motion of the liquid due to heat flow from the inner core to the core mantle boundary which proves that the outer core is liquid and moving. The Earth's core consists of iron and nickel as the Eddy currents in the iron and nickel liquid helps generating the Earth's magnetic field.

Hence, all the three statements are true and can be used to explain the Earth's magnetic field.

projectile motion of a particle of mass M with charge Q is projected with an initial speed V in a driection opposite to a unifor
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

Range, R = MV²/2QE

Explanation:

The question deals with the projectile motion of a particle mass M with charge Q, having an initial speed V in a direction opposite to that of a uniform electric field.

Since we are dealing with projectile motion in an electric field, the unknown variable here, would be the range, R of the projectile. We note that the electric field opposes the motion of the particle thereby reducing its kinetic energy. The particle stops when it loses  all its kinetic energy due to the work done on it in opposing its motion by the electric field. From work-kinetic energy principles, work done on charge by electric field = loss in kinetic energy of mass.

So, [tex]QER = MV²/2{/tex} where R is the distance (range) the mass moves before it stops

Therefore {tex}R = MV²/2QE{/tex}

Help meee please fill in the blanks !!
Ratling [72]

The atomic number is the simply the number of protons in the atom. So in the first row with atomic number 2, the number of protons is 2.

If the atom has no charge, which I think you can assume for all of these, the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons. So the number of electrons is also 2.

The number of neutrons (which are the particles with no charge in the nucleus) is simply the mass number minus the atomic number i.e. 4 - 2 = 2.

The isotopic symbol is the symbol which is found on the periodic table of elements. There are 2 numbers associated which each element on the table. The larger is the mass number and the smaller is the atomic number. The atomic number or number of protons is what identifies the element. Looking at the periodic table ( https://sciencenotes.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/PeriodicTableOfTheElementsBW.pdf or https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table_(big) ), it can be seen that the element on the first row above with an atomic number of 2 is Helium with a symbol He. The number that is included with the name is simply the mass number which is 4 in this case, which tells us that this type of helium has 2 neutrons.

Another type (or isotope) of helium is Helium-3 which has one neutron.

Try the next row and post back if you have trouble with it

Explain Energy Transformation using the image below and how the Law of Conservation of Energy is maintained.
Karolina [17]

The chemical energy of petrol is converted to heat energy on combustion. The heat energy is converted to kinetic energy by the use of internal combustion engines in vehicles. The law of conservation of energy is maintained in each process.

<h3>What is kinetic energy?</h3>

The kinetic energy of an object is associated with its motion. It can be related to the mass and velocity as

K.E = 1/2 mv²

Given is a diagram of energy conversion due to combustion.

The chemical energy of petrol is converted to heat energy on combustion. The heat energy is converted to kinetic energy by the use of internal combustion engines in vehicles.

The law of conservation of energy states that the energy can neither be created nor destroyed. It can be only converted to one form to the other.

In the given process, the mass decreases but energy remains the same in all forms of energy.

Hence, the law of conservation of energy is maintained in each process

Why the center of Newton rings is dark?​
RideAnS [48]
The point of contact the path difference is zero but one of the interfering ray is reflected so the effective path difference becomes λ/2 thus the condition of minimum intensity is created in the center.
