Answer:

When the total eclipse of the Sun is completed, the shadow of the Moon passes and sunlight appears once again at the western edge of the Sun. The corona disappears, Baily's Beads appear for a few seconds, and then a thin crescent of the Sun becomes visible.

What occurs when salt is evenly mixed with water

zimovet [89]

The more you mix salt with water the more the salt will dissolve
The act of dissolving in chemistry describes a physical change such as change in shape or state. Its important to remember that physical change does not change the chemical state.

A student makes a short electromagnet by winding 300 turns of wire around a wooden cylinder of diameter d 5.0 cm. The coil is co

kupik [55]

Answer:

A) μ = A.m²

B) z = 0.46m

Explanation:

A) Magnetic dipole moment of a coil is given by; μ = NIA

Where;

N is number of turns of coil

I is current in wire

A is area

We are given

N = 300 turns; I = 4A ; d =5cm = 0.05m

Area = πd²/4 = π(0.05)²/4 = 0.001963

So,

μ = 300 x 4 x 0.001963 = 2.36 A.m².

B) The magnetic field at a distance z along the coils perpendicular central axis is parallel to the axis and is given by;

B = (μ_o•μ)/(2π•z³)

Let's make z the subject ;

z = [(μ_o•μ)/(2π•B)] ^(⅓)

Where u_o is vacuum permiability with a value of 4π x 10^(-7) H

Also, B = 5 mT = 5 x 10^(-6) T

Thus,

z = [ (4π x 10^(-7)•2.36)/(2π•5 x 10^(-6))]^(⅓)

Solving this gives; z = 0.46m =

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

Near the top of the Citigroup Center building in New York City, there is an object with mass of 4.00 ✕ 105 kg on springs that ha

jasenka [17]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of an object, $m=4\times 10^5\ kg$

(a) Time period of oscillation, T = 2.4 s

The formula for the time period of spring is given by :

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}$

Where

k is the force constant

$k=\dfrac{4\pi ^2 m}{T^2}$

$k=\dfrac{4\pi ^2 \times 4\times 10^5}{(2.4)^2}$

$k=2.74\times 10^6\ N/m$

(b) Displacement in the spring, x = 2.2 m

Energy stored in the spring is given by :

$U=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2$

$U=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2.74\times 10^6\ N/m\times (2.2\ m)^2$

$U=6.63\times 10^6\ J$

Hence, this is the required solution.
