A student claims that since the three phases have different amounts of energy, molecules in substances gain or lose energy only

during phase transitions. Explain what is wrong with this student's reasoning.

The statement is wrong because the student concluded that it is only in during phase transitions that molecules in substances gain or lose energy. It is not only on phase transition processes that energy is changed but also in other process especially chemical process where new bonds are formed while bonds are broken down.

How much work must be done to bring three electrons from a great distance apart to 3.0×10−10 m from one another (at the corners
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

Potential\ Energy=Work \ Done=2.301*10^{-18} J

Work  done to bring three electrons from a great distance apart to 3.0×10−10 m from one another (at the corners of an equilateral triangle) is 2.301*10^{-18} Joules

Explanation:

The potential energy is given by:

U=Q*V

where:

Q is the charge

V is the potential difference

Potential Difference=V=\frac{kq}{r}

So,

Potential\ Energy=\frac{Qkq}{r} \\Q=q\\Potential\ Energy=\frac{kq^2}{r}

Where:

k is Coulomb Constant=8.99*10^9 Nm^2/C^2

q is the charge on electron=-1.6*10^-19 C

r is the distance=3.0*10^{-10}m

For 3 Electrons Potential Energy or work Done is:

Potential\ Energy=3*\frac{kq^2}{r}

Potential\ Energy=3*\frac{(8.99*10^9)(-1.6*10^{-19})^2}{3*10^{-10}}\\Potential\ Energy=2.301*10^{-18} J

Work  done to bring three electrons from a great distance apart to 3.0×10−10 m from one another (at the corners of an equilateral triangle) is 2.301*10^{-18} Joules

A shell is fired with a horizontal velocity in the positive x direction from the top of an 80 m high cliff. The shell strikes th
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

V = 331.59m/s

Explanation:

First we need to calculate the time taken for the shell fire to hit the ground using the equation of motion.

S = ut + 1/2at²

Given height of the cliff S = 80m

initial velocity u = 0m/s²

a = g = 9.81m/s²

Substitute

80 = 0+1/2(9.81)t²

80 = 4.905t²

t² = 80/4.905

t² = 16.31

t = √16.31

t = 4.04s

Next is to get the vertical velocity

Vy = u + gt

Vy = 0+(9.81)(4.04)

Vy = 39.6324

Also calculate the horizontal velocity

Vx = 1330/4.04

Vx = 329.21m/s

Find the magnitude of the velocity to calculate speed of the shell as it hits the ground.

V² = Vx²+Vy²

V² = 329.21²+39.63²

V² = 329.21²+39.63²

V² = 108,379.2241+1,570.5369

V² = 109,949.761

V = √ 109,949.761

V = 331.59m/s

Hence the speed of the shell as it hits the ground is 331.59m/s

Which of the following is defined as an area of the body surface that is innervated by a single spinal​ nerve?
romanna [79]

Answer:

Dermatome. (Ans. C).

Explanation:

Dermatome is defined as the area of the human anatomy skin which is supplied by single spinal sensory nerve root. At the spinal cord these spinal sensory nerve enter the nerve root, and the branches of spinal sensory reach to the periphery of the body.

The sensory nerve which is present in the periphery of the body are the type of nerve which helps to transmit signals from sensation such as pain, temperature, etc. to the spinal cord from some specific area of the anatomy.

What is approximate resistance between P and Q?<br> a) 0.5<br> b)0.8<br> c)2.0<br> d)2.2<br> e)3.6
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

0.5 Ohms

Explanation:

We note that the node Q is also between the resistors of 1ohm and 2ohms.

We note that the node P is also between the resistors of 2ohms and 3ohms.

Thus, all these resistors are in parallel, beween nodes P and Q

1/Re=1/R1+1/R2+1/R3

1/Re=1/1+1/2+1/3=(6+3+2)/6=11/6 [ohm^(-1)]

Re=6/11=0.54ohms

Rounding to the tenth: Re=0.5 ohms
