Answer:

Decreases

Explanation:

When an electron is released from rest in a region of space with nonzero electric field. And when the electrons move the electric potential energy of the system decreases because the kinetic energy increases and for the total energy to remain constant the potential energy must reduce.

An electron is accelerated in an electric field meaning its kinetic energy increases.

Please help! the mass of an object is measured on a pan balance with a precision of 0.005 g and the recorded value of 128.01 g.

inysia [295]

Yes, these two objects have different masses.

<h3>How can we calculate that this statement is right ?</h3>

To calculate the precision of mass we are using the formula,

Precision(P) = $\frac{m_1}{m_1+\triangle m}$

Or, $\triangle$ m= $\frac{m_1}{P}$ -m₁

For the first case we are given,

m₁= The recorded value of mass

= 128.01 g

P= Precision of the mass

=0.005g

So, according to the formula, $\triangle$ m will be,

$\triangle$ m= $\frac{128.01}{0.005}$ -128.01

Or, $\triangle$ m=25,473.99 g

Or, $\triangle$ m=25.47 Kg

For the first case $\triangle$ m is 25.47 Kg..

For the second case we are given,

m₁= The recorded value of mass

= 0.13 Kg

P= Precision of the mass

=0.005 Kg

So, according to the formula, $\triangle$ m will be,

$\triangle$ m= $\frac{0.13}{0.005}$ -0.13

Or, $\triangle$ m= 25.87 kg

For the second case $\triangle$ m is 25.87 Kg.

For the two cases $\triangle$ m has different values, 25.47 Kg≠25.87 Kg.

Therefore we can conclude that, these two objects have different masses.

A revolutionary war cannon, with a mass of 2260 kg, fires a 15.5 kg ball horizontally. The cannonball has a speed of 109 m/s aft

Anton [14]

Answer:

The gain in velocity is 0.37m/s

Explanation:

We need solve this problem though the conservation of momentum. That is,

$m_1 v_1 = m_2 v_2$

$m_1=2260Kg\\m_2=15.5Kg\\v_2= 109m/s$

Using the equation to find $v_1$ ,

$v_1=\frac{m_2 v_2}{m_1}\\v_1=\frac{15.5*109}{2260}\\v_1= 0.7475$

Using the conservation of energy equation, we have,

$KE= \frac{1}{2}m*v^2$

$KE_{cball}=\frac{1}{2}(15.5)(109)^2=92077.75J$

$KE_{cannon}=\frac{1}{2}(2260)(0.7475)^2=631.39J$

$Total KE= 92077.75+13425530=92708.9J$

Now this energy over the cannonball

$KE=\frac{1}{2}m*v_2^2$

$92708.9=\frac{1}{2}15.5v_2^2$

$V_2 = 109.37m/s$

The gain in velocity is 0.37m/s

Yolanda is performing a neutralization reaction using hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide. Since both are clear liquids, what

Bad White [126]

I should think that Yolanda should use litmus paper throughout the reaction as its color will tell when the mixture is neutral and therefore then, when she can stop adding either the hydrochloric acid or the sodium hydroxide or if one or the other needs to be added to make the solution approach neutral. Blue litmus paper stays blue in a neutral solution, but will turn red in an acidic solution.

Alchen [17]

Answer:

g = 0.85 m $s^{-2}$

Explanation:

g = $\frac{GM}{h^{2} }$

were; g is the acceleration due to Earth's gravity, G is Newton's gravitation constant (6.674 x $10^{-11}$ N $m^{2}$ $kg^{-2}$ ), M is the mass of the earth (5.972 x $10^{24}$ kg), and h is the distance of meteoroid to the earth.
