A) an electron has an initial speed of 226000 m/s. if it undergoes an acceleration of 4.0 x 1014 m/s2, how long will it take to
KIM [24]

initial speed of 226000 m/s

acceleration of 4.0 x 1014 m/s2,

speed of 781000 m/s

What is Acceleration?

  • Acceleration is a rate of change of velocity with respect to time with respect to direction and speed.
  • A point or an object moving in a straight line is accelerated if it speeds up or slows down.
  • Acceleration formula can be written as,

                    a = (v - u ) / t m/s²

As we have to find the time taken, the formula can be altered as,

t = \frac{v-u}{a}

where, t - time taken to reach a final speed

v - final velocity

u - initial velocity

a - acceleration.

Substituting all the given values,

t =\frac{781000 - 226000} {4* 1014}

= 1.3875 × 10⁻⁹ seconds.

So, taken to reach the final speed is found to be 1.3 × 10⁻⁹ 8iH..

EARTH SCIENCE PLEASE ANSWER
Rzqust [24]

The Earth Science answers are shown below.

Explanation:

1. The movement of the sun will change the angle it has on the sky in 30 minutes, it is always moving from the east to the west, so in 30 minutes it would move more west, no matter at what time you make the experiment. From Earth, the Sun looks like it moves across the sky in the daytime and appears to disappear at night. This is because the Earth is spinning towards the east. The Earth spins about its axis, an imaginary line that runs through the middle of the Earth between the North and South poles

2. No, both marks are the same distance from the ground.  the amount of stick above the mark will not affect the distance that the shadow of the mark moves at all. The Sun's clockwise motion is an apparent motion caused by the rotation of the Earth. The counterclockwise rotation of the Earth in the Sun's light causes the shadow of the gnomon to move clockwise. As the Sun appears to move higher above the horizon before solar noon, the shadow grows shorter and shorter.

3. In the summer the shadows are shorter, and in the winter the shadows are longer. In the morning your shadow will point west and in the afternoon it will point east. If your shadow is long, it is near sunrise or sunset. Your shadow is shortest around noon.

4. If the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, then the Earth should rotate in the opposite direction from west to east (anti-clockwise). Earth's spin (or rotation) on its axis. Earth rotates or spins toward the east, and that's why the Sun, Moon, planets, and stars all rise in the east and make their way westward across the sky.

A pendulum is swinging back and forth with a period of 2.0 seconds here on Earth. This pendulum is then brought to the Moon. Wha
LenKa [72]

Answer: The period of the pendulum will increase. Because of less gravity

Explanation:

Since the force of gravity is less on the Moon, the pendulum  would swing slower at the same length and angle and its frequency would be less. Hence more time period will be experienced by the pendulum. On the moon, the acceleration due to gravity g is less when compared to that of the earth.
