A dam is a structure built across a river to hold back the river's water. The flow of water through a dam is controlled by gates

. When the gates are closed, water is held at a greater height than it would otherwise occupy.
The water has_________ energy when the gates are closed due to its height. This energy is transformed into _______energy when the gates open and the water begins to flow downward.

Ask Your Teacher A basketball player shoots toward a basket 5.8 m away and 3.0 m above the floor. If the ball is released 1.7 m
const2013 [10]

Answer:

The answer to your question is    vo = 5.43 m/s

Explanation:

Data

distance = d= 5.8 m

height = 3 m

height 2 = 1.7 m

angle = 60°

vo = ?

g = 9.81 m/s²

Formula

              hmax = vo²sinФ/ 2g

Solve for vo²

              vo² = 2ghmax / sinФ

Substitution

              vo² = 2(9.81)(3 - 1.7) / 0.866

Simplification

              vo² = 19.62(1.3) / 0.866

              vo² = 25.51 / 0.866

              vo² = 29.45

Result

              vo = 5.43 m/s

An electron and a 0.033 0-kg bullet each have a velocity of magnitude 495 m/s, accurate to within 0.010 0%. Within what lower li
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

1.170*10^-3 m

3.23*10^-32 m

Explanation:

To solve this, we apply Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.

the principle states that, "if we know everything about where a particle is located, then we know nothing about its momentum, and vice versa." it also can be interpreted as "if the uncertainty of the position is small, then the uncertainty of the momentum is large, and vice versa"

Δp * Δx = h/4π

m(e).Δv * Δx = h/4π

If we make Δx the subject of formula, by rearranging, we have

Δx = h / 4π * m(e).Δv

on substituting the values, we have

for the electron

Δx = (6.63*10^-34) / 4 * 3.142 * 9.11*10^-31 * 4.95*10^-2

Δx = 6.63*10^-34 / 5.67*10^-31

Δx = 1.170*10^-3 m

for the bullet

Δx = (6.63*10^-34) / 4 * 3.142 * 0.033*10^-31 * 4.95*10^-2

Δx = 6.63*10^-34 / 0.021

Δx = 3.23*10^-32 m

therefore, we can say that the lower limits are 1.170*10^-3 m for the electron and 3.23*10^-32 for the bullet

What has research determined about the orbit of an electron around a nucleus?
sergeinik [125]
The one that research has determined about the orbit of an electron around nucleus is : Each sub-level electron type has a unique path where it will likely to be found
Here are the sub levels of an electron :
-sub level s, maximum number of 2 electrons
- sub level p, maximum number of 6 electrons
- sub level d, maximum number of 10 electrons
- sub level f, maximum number of 14 electrons

What is the energy stored between 2 Carbon nuclei that are 1.00 nm apart from each other? HINT: Carbon nuclei have 6 protons and
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

A. 8.29\times 10^{-18}\ J

Explanation:

Given that:

p = magnitude of charge on a proton = 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

k = Boltzmann constant = 9\times 10^{9}\ Nm^2/C^2

r = distance between the two carbon nuclei = 1.00 nm = 1.00\times 10^{-9}\ m

Since a carbon nucleus contains 6 protons.

So, charge on a carbon nucleus is q = 6p=6\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C=9.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

We know that the electric potential energy between two charges q and Q separated by a distance r is given by:

U = \dfrac{kQq}{r}

So, the potential energy between the two nuclei of carbon is as below:

U= \dfrac{kqq}{r}\\\Rightarrow U = \dfrac{kq^2}{r}\\\Rightarrow U = \dfrac{9\times10^9\times (9.6\times 10^{-19})^2}{1.0\times 10^{-9}}\\\Rightarrow U =8.29\times 10^{-18}\ J

Hence, the energy stored between two nuclei of carbon is 8.29\times 10^{-18}\ J.
