The nucleus of an atom is positively charge.
Ivahew [28]3 years ago

Answer:

FALSE

Explanation:

Nucleus of an atom consist of neutrons and protons and it is the smallest part of atom.

So the total charge on the nucleus is due to charge of protons as we know that neutrons are neutral in nature and they do not have any charge on it.

So we will have

Q_{proton} = + 1.6 \times 10^{-19} C

Q_{neutron} = 0 C

Q_{electron} = - 1.6 \times 10^{-19} C

so here we can say that total charge on a nucleus must be positive charge which is only due to protons present inside the nucleus.

1. An express train, traveling at 36 m/s, is accidentally sidetracked onto a local train track. The express engineer spots a loc
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

(i) 12 seconds

(ii) 216 meters from the initial position

(iii) 132 meters from the initial position

(iv) No

Explanation:

Speed of express train =36 m/s

Speed of local train =11 m/s

The initial distance between the local train and passenger train =100 m.

Due to the application of breaks, the express train slows at the rare of 3.0 m/s^2.

So, the acceleration of the express train, a=-3 m/s^2.

(i) Let t be the time the express train takes to stop.

From the equation of motion,

v=u+at

where, v: final velocity, u: initial velocity, a: constant acceleration, t: time taken to change the speed from u to v.

In this case, v=0, u=36 m/s, a=-3 m/s^2

So, 0=36+(-3)t

\Rightarrow t= 36/3=12 seconds.

(ii) To compute the distance traveled, s, till the express train stops, using

v^2=u^2+2as

\Rightarrow 0^2=36^2+2(-3)s

\Rightarrow s=\frac{36\times36}{6}

\Rightarrow s=216 meters.

(iii) The local train is moving at a speed of 11 m/s

So, in 12 seconds, the distance, d, traveled by the local train

d= 11x12=132 meters [as distance= speed x time]

(iv) Let 0 be the reference position which is the initial position of the express train.

So, at the initial time, the position of the local train is at 100m.

After 12 seconds:

The position of the express train is at 216 m [using part (ii)]

and the position of the local train is at 100+132=232m  [using part (iii)].

So, the local train is still ahead of the express train, hence the trains didn't collide.

As a wave moves through a medium, particles are displaced and (2 points)
Scorpion4ik [409]

As a wave moves through a medium, particles are displaced and return to their normal position after the wave passes.

Explanation:

A wave is a traveling disturbance that  carries energy from one location to  another. All waves move in straight lines  outward and away from the source of a  disturbance. Like the radiating circular  ripples, the waves of water carry energy  away from where a rock was dropped into  the pond.

Waves can move as a single pulse or as a continuous series of waves, carrying  energy away from its source. A pulse is a single disturbance, wave, or ripple that moves  outward from the point of disturbance. A train of waves are many waves emitted over and  over again from a single source.

As waves travel through matter, they will temporarily  displace the molecules or particles in matter up-and-down  or side-to-side. Waves move the energy but they do not  carry the matter with them longitudinally as they move  through matter. Once the disturbance passes, the medium  will return to its original state or position.

Therefore, as the waves move through a medium, particles are displaced and return to their normal position after the wave passes.

A series circuit has two 10-ohm bulb is added in a series. Technician A says that the three bulbs will be dimmer than when only
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Technician  A  is right. The situation will happens even with only two bulbs in series

Explanation:

We must take into account that

1.- All electric device need its nominal voltage to operate

2.-Any and all electric device means an electric load for the source in terms of equation that means any device will implies a drop voltage of V = I*R ( I the flows current and R  the resistance of the device)

3.-Nominal voltage for bulbs are specify for houses voltages you find between fase and neutral wires for instance in Venezuela 120 (v).

4.-In a imaginary circuit of only one bulb, the nominal voltage will be applied and the bulb will operates correctly, but when you add another bulb (in series) the nominal voltage will split  between the two bulbs ( we  could find a situation such as the first bulb work properly but the second one does not). The voltage split according to Ohms law (in such way that the sum of voltage between the terminal of the first bulb plus the voltage at terminals of the second one are equal to nominal voltage.

For that reason all the bulbs are connected in parallel in wich case all of them will operate with the common voltage
