If cooling occurred at the bottom of a lake instead of its surface, the lake

I do not believe that the lake would freeze at the bottom only because of the fact that fish ( sharks mostly) live deep in the waters and it is actually warmer down there. the higher up you are, the more closer you are to the atmosphere and the climate change. Anything way under the water does not always get affect by the climate. the only thing that would affect anything for the most part underwater could be underwater volcanic eruptions and underwater earthquakes, which would essentially cause the bottom of the ocean or lake to split and become reefs.

No because the top has more oxygen to it which will break the particles up and have them freeze easier.

so if something froze at the bottom of the lake it would float to the top and that's why water always freezes from the top down :))

An electron with kinetic energy 2.9 keV moving along the positive direction of an x axis enters a region in which a uniform elec
Vladimir79 [104]

The electric force on the electron is opposite in direction to the electric field E. E points in the -y direction, so the electric force will point in the +y direction. The magnitude of the electric force is given by:

F = Eq

F = electric force, E = electric field strength, q = electron charge

We need to set up a magnetic field such that the magnetic force on the electron balances out the electric force. Since the electric force points in the +y direction, we need the magnetic force to point in the -y direction. Using the  reversed right hand rule, the magnetic field must point in the -z direction for this to happen. Since the direction is perpendicular to the +x direction of the electron's velocity, the magnetic force is given by:

F = qvB

F = magnetic force, q = charge, v = velocity, B = magnetic field strength

The electric force must equal the magnetic force.

Eq = qvB

Do some algebra to isolate B:

E = vB

B = E/v

Let's solve for the electron's velocity. Its kinetic energy is given by:

KE = 0.5mv²

KE = kinetic energy, m = mass, v = velocity

Given values:

KE = 2.9keV = 4.6×10⁻¹⁶J

m = 9.1×10⁻³¹kg

Plug in and solve for v:

4.6×10⁻¹⁶ = 0.5(9.1×10⁻³¹)v²

v = 3.2×10⁷m/s

B = E/v

Given values:

E = 7500V/m

v = 3.2×10⁷m/s

Plug in and solve for B:

B = 7500/3.2×10⁷

B = 0.00023T

B = 0.23mT

Yuri [45]
The force of gravity is much weaker than the strong nuclear force. But the strong nuclear force only acts over short distances, such as within the nuclues. The gravitational force can act over infinite distance.

When a falling meteoroid is at a distance above the Earth's surface of 3.40 times the Earth's radius, what is its acceleration d
Alchen [17]

Answer:

g = 0.85 ms^{-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} Nm^{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.

h = 3.40 x R

  = 3.40 x 6371 km

h = 21661.4 km

  = 21661400 m

Thus,

g = \frac{6.674*10^{-11}*5.972*10^{24}  }{(21661400)^{2} }

  = \frac{3.9857 *10^{14} }{4.6922*10^{14} }

  = 0.84944

g = 0.85 ms^{-2}

The acceleration due to the Earth's gravitation is 0.85 ms^{-2}.
