Answer:

<em>They represent kinetic energy</em>

Explanation:

<u>Kinetic Energy </u>

A body can do work due to some of its attributes or states. For example, its mass can do work if used to provide energy, if the object is at a certain height respect to some reference level, it can do work when going downwards (potential energy), if the object moves at a certain speed, it can do work when transferring part of its speed to other objects. It's called kinetic energy and is given by

\displaystyle K=\frac{mv^2}{2}

Both runners are moving in a horizontal path, thus they have kinetic energy, given by the above equation. If they could jump below ground level, then they will also have potential energy

What is the only possible value of ml for an electron in an s orbital?
Archy [21]

Answer:

  • zero

Explanation:

m_l     is the magnetic quantum number.

The only possible value for the magnetic quantum number for an electron in an s orbital is 0.

The first three quantun numbers are:

  • n: principal quantum number. It may have positive integer values: 1, 2, 3, 4,5, 6, 7, ...

  • l : Azimuthal or angular momentum quantum number. It may have integer values from 0 to n - 1.

       This quantum number is related to the type (or shape) of the orbital:

        For s orbitals l=0

        For p orbitals l=1

        For d orbitals l=2

         For f orbitals l=3

In this case, it is an s orbital, so we have l=0.

  • m_l , the third quantum number can have integer values  {from-l}   to    {+l}

       Since, for the s orbitals  l=0 , the only possible value for {m_l} is zero.

In a nuclear reactor 1 g of mass is converted into energy. How much energy in Joules is produced?
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

3 x 10^5  J

Explanation:

mass of substance, m = 1 g = 0.001 kg

Velocity of light, c = 3 x 10^8 m/s

According to the Einstein mass energy equivalence, the energy associated with the mass is given by

E = m c^2

E = 0.001 x 3 x 10^8

E = 3 x 10^5  J

According to Ohm's law what would happen if the current was increased and the resistance was held constant?
Whitepunk [10]
<span>Ohm's law deals with the relation between voltage and current in an ideal conductor. It states that: Potential difference across a conductor is proportional to the current that pass through it. It is expressed as V=IR. Therefore, the correct answer is option B, the voltage would increase as well.</span>

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!
musickatia [10]

Answer:

22.2 W

Explanation:

First of all, we calculate the work done by moving the wagon, using the formula:

W=Fdcos \theta

where

F = 20 N is the magnitude of the force

d = 1000 m is the displacement of the wagon

\theta=0^{\circ} is the angle between the direction of the force and of the displacement (assuming the force is applied in the direction of motion)

Substituting, we find

W=(20)(1000)=20,000 J

Now we can find the power generated, which is equal to the ratio between the work done and the time taken:

P=\frac{W}{t}

where

W = 20,000 J

t = 15 min = 900 s

Substituting,

P=\frac{20000}{900}=22.2 W

And the same value in Joules/second (remember that 1 Watt = 1 Joule/second)
