When an object moves, stops moving, changes speed, or changes direction, how do scientists describe that condition?

Drop "moves" from the list for a moment.

You can also drop "stops moving", because that's included in "changes speed"
(from something to zero).

When an object changes speed or changes direction, that's called "acceleration".

I dropped the first one from the list, because an object can be moving,
and as long as it's speed is constant and it's moving in a straight line,
there's no acceleration.

I think you meant to say "starts moving". That's a change of speed (from zero
to something), so it's also acceleration.

Capacitances of 10uF and 20uF are connected in parallel,
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

The equivalent capacitance will be 15\mu F  

Explanation:

We have given two capacitance C_=10\mu F\ and\ C_2=20\mu F

They are connected in parallel

So equivalent capacitance C=C_1+C_2=10+20=30\mu F

This equivalent capacitance is now connected in series with 30\mu F

In series combination of capacitors the equivalent capacitance is given by \frac{1}{C}=\frac{1}{30}+\frac{1}{30}

C=\frac{30}{2}=15\mu F

So the equivalent capacitance will be 15\mu F

Find the minimum kinetic energy in MeV necessary for an α particle to touch a 39 19 K nucleus that is initially at rest, assumin
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

KE = 9.6MeV

Explanation:

Given the relationships we understand that,

q_1 = 19e, q_2 = 2e

The Potential at point p, is given by the following formula

V_ {p} = \frac {Kq_1} {r}

According to the graphic designed, you have,

V_ {p} = \frac {Kq_1} {(r_1 + r_2)}

V_ {p} = \frac {(9 * 10 ^ 9) (19 * 1.6 * 10 ^ {- 15})} {(3.7 + 2) * 10 ^{- 15}}}

V_ {p} = 4.8 * 10 ^ 6V

The kinetic energy of the particle would be given by

KE = q_2 * V_ {p} = 2e * 4.8 * 10 ^ 6V

KE = 9.6MeV

What is the acceleration due to gravity at an altitude of 116?
Schach [20]
Gravitational acceleration (Ga) is  inversely proportional to  k / Distance^2

so Ga * Distance^2 = K

On the surface of Earth acceleration due to gravity is about 9.8m/s^2 with an average distance to the earths core of about 6371 km (Wolfram alpha).

So k = 9.8 * 6371^2
I'm presuming that your distance of 116 is km

As 
Ga = k / distance^2 

Ga = ((9.8 * 6371^2) / (6371 + 116)^2 ) = 397778481.8 / 42081169

= 9.45 m/s^2 to 2sf
