Answer:

After the hydrogen in the star's core is exhausted, the star can fuse helium to form progressively heavier elements, carbon and oxygen and so on, until iron and nickel are formed. Elements heavier than that are formed in supernovas.

Ocean waves pass through two small openings, 20.0 m apart, in a breakwater. You're in a boat 70.0 m from the breakwater and init

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

λ = 5.65m

Explanation:

The Path Difference Condition is given as:

δ= $(m+\frac{1}{2})\frac{lamda}{n}$ ;

where lamda is represent by the symbol (λ) and is the wavelength we are meant to calculate.

m = no of openings which is 2

∴δ= $\frac{3*lamda}{2}$

n is the index of refraction of the medium in which the wave is traveling

To find δ we have;

δ= $\sqrt{70^2+(33+\frac{20}{2})^2 }-\sqrt{70^2+(33-\frac{20}{2})^2 }$

δ= $\sqrt{4900+(\frac{66+20}{2})^2}-\sqrt{4900+(\frac{66-20}{2})^2}$

δ= $\sqrt{4900+(\frac{86}{2})^2 }-\sqrt{4900+(\frac{46}{2})^2 }$

δ= $\sqrt{4900+43^2}-\sqrt{4900+23^2}$

δ= $\sqrt{4900+1849}-\sqrt{4900+529}$

δ= $\sqrt{6749}-\sqrt{5429}$

δ= 82.15 -73.68

δ= 8.47

Again remember; to calculate the wavelength of the ocean waves; we have:

δ= $\frac{3*lamda}{2}$

δ= 8.47

8.47 = $\frac{3*lamda}{2}$

λ = $\frac{8.47*2}{3}$

λ = 5.65m

A mass spectrometer was used in the discovery of the electron. In the velocity selector, the electric and magnetic fields are se

Mama L [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Radius of dee, r = 8 mm = 0.008 m

Electric field, e = 400 V/m

Magnetic field, B = 4.7 x 10^-4 T

mass of electron, m = 9.1 x 10^-31 kg

charge of electron, q = 1.6 x 10^-19 C

(a) Let v is the speed of electrons.

$v = \frac{Bqr}{m}$

$v = \frac{4.7\times 10^{-4}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.008}{9.1 \times 10^{-31}}$

v = 661098.9 = 661099 m/s

(b)

$\frac{e}{m}=\frac{1.6 \times 10^{-19}}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}$

e / m = 1.76 x 10^14 C / kg

K = 0.5 x mv²

K = 0.5 x 9.1 x 10^-31 x 661099 x 661099

K = 1.99 x 10^-19 J

K = 1.24 eV

So, the potential difference is

V = 1.24 V

(d) if the acceleration voltage is doubled

V = 2 x 1.24 = 2.48 V

So, Kinetic energy

K = 2.48 eV

K = 2.48 x 1.6 x 10^-19 = 3.968 x 10^-19 J

Let v is the speed

K = 0.5 x mv²

3.968 x 10^-19 = 0.5 x 9.1 x 10^-31 x v²

v = 933856.5 m/s

Let the new radius is r.

$r=\frac{mv}{Bq}$

$r=\frac{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 933856.5}{4.7\times 10^{-4}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}$

r = 0.0113 m = 1.13 cm
