A gnat takes off from one end of a pencil and flies around erratically for 41.641.6 s before landing on the other end of the sam

e pencil. If the gnat flew a total distance of 6.656.65 m, and the pencil is 0.04630.0463 m long, find the gnat's average speed and the magnitude of the gnat's average velocity.

Answer:

average speed  is 0.159 m/s

average velocity = 0.0011 m/s

Explanation:

given data

time = 41.6 s

total distance = 6.65 m

length = 0.0463 m

to find out

average speed and the magnitude average velocity

solution

we know average speed formula is

average speed = \frac{total distance}{total time}   ...............1

put here value

average speed = \frac{6.65}{41.6}

average speed  is 0.159 m/s

and

average velocity formula is

average velocity = \frac{displacement}{total time}   ...............2

here displacement is initial point to final point and here is 0.0463 m

put here value

average velocity = \frac{0.0463}{41.6}

average velocity = 0.0011 m/s

A small glass bead has been charged to + 30.0 nC . A small metal ball bearing 2.60 cm above the bead feels a 1.80×10−2 N downwar
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

The charge on the ball bearing 4.507 × 10^-8 C

Explanation:

From Coulomb's law

F = kq1q2/r²

make q2 the subject

q2 = Fr²/kq1

q2 = (1.8×10^-2 × 0.026²) ÷ (9×10^9 × 30×10^-9)

q2 = 4.507 × 10^-8 C

Can anyone tell me how to read a micrometer screw gauge I want very clear instructions.
Natalka [10]

Explanation:

Things you need to know:

Accuracy refers to the maximum error encountered when a particular observation is made.

Error in measurement is normally one-half the magnitude of the smallest scale reading.

Because one has to align one end of the rule or device to the starting point of the measurement, the appropriate error is thus twice that of the smallest scale reading.

Error is usually expressed in at most 1 or 2 significant figures.

Tape

Equipment: It is made up of a long flexible tape and can measure objects or places up to 10 – 50 m in length. It has markings similar to that of the rigid rule. The smallest marking could be as small as 0.1 cm or could be as large as 0.5 cm or even 1 cm.

How to use: The zero-mark of the measuring tape is first aligned flat to one end of the object and the tape is stretched taut to the other end, the reading is taken where the other end of the object meets the tape.

Ruler

Equipment: It is made up of a long rigid piece of wood or steel and can measure objects up to 100 cm in length. The smallest marking is usually 0.1 cm.

How to use: The zero-end of the rule is first aligned flat with one end of the object and the reading is taken where the other end of the object meets the rule.

Vernier Caliper

Equipment: It is made up of a main scale and a vernier scale and can usually measure objects up to 15 cm in length. The smallest marking is usually 0.1 cm on the main scale.

It has:

a pair of external jaws to measure external diameters

a pair of internal jaws to measure internal diameters

a long rod to measure depths

How to use: The jaws are first closed to find any zero errors. The jaws are then opened to fit the object firmly and the reading is then taken.

Micrometer Screw Gauge

Equipment: It is made up of a main scale and a thimble scale and can measure objects up to 5 cm in length. The smallest marking is usually 1 mm on the main scale (sleeve) and 0.01 mm on the thimble scale (thimble). The thimble has a total of 50 markings representing 0.50 mm.

It has:

an anvil and a spindle to hold the object

a ratchet on the thimble for accurate tightening (prevent over-tightening)

How to use: The spindle is first closed on the anvil to find any zero errors ( use the ratchet for careful tightening). The spindle is then opened to fit the object firmly (use the ratchet for careful tightening) and the reading is then taken.

How many coulombs of positive charge are there in 47.0 gm of plutonium, given its atomic mass is 244 and that each plutonium ato
enot [183]

Answer:

  • 1.78×10⁶ C

Explanation:

Using the atomic mass of pluonium atoms (244 g/mol), you can calculate the number of atoms in 47.0 g. Then, knowing that each plutonium atom has 96 protons, you calculate the number of protons in the 47.0 g sample. Finally, using the positive charge of one proton, you calculate the total positive charge in the 47.0 g of plutonium.

<u>1. Number of atoms of plutonium in 47.0 g</u>

  • Number of moles = mass / atomic mass = 47.0 g / 244 = 0.1926 moles

  • Number of atoms = number of moles × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms/mol

  • Number of atoms = 0.1926 mol × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms/mol = 1.15998×10²³ atoms

<u>2. Number of protons</u>

  • Number of protons = 1.15998×10²³ atoms × 96 protons/atom = 1.11385×10²⁵ protons

<u>3. Charge</u>

<u />

  • Charge = charge of one proton × number of protons

  • Charge = 1.602×10⁻¹⁹ C/proton × 1.11385×10²⁵ protons = 1.78×10⁶C

Pascal's Principle states that (a) If we apply pressure to a fluid in a sealed container, the pressure will be felt undiminished
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

a) If we apply pressure to a fluid in a sealed container, the pressure will be felt undiminished at every point in the fluid and on the walls of the container.

Explanation:

Pascal´s Principle can be applied in the hydraulic press:

If we apply a small force (F1) on a small area piston A1, then, a pressure (P) is generated that is transmitted equally to all the particles of the liquid until it reaches a larger area piston and therefore a force (F2) can be exerted that is proportional to the area(A2) of the piston.

P=F/A

P1=P2

F1/ A1= F2/ A2

F2= F1* A2/ A1

The pressure acting on one side is transmitted to all the molecules of the liquid because the liquid is incompressible.

In an incompressible liquid, the volume and amount of mass does not vary when pressure is applied.
