The firearm is unloaded.

The ramrod establishes whether the firearm is loaded or unloaded. It thrusts the bullet down the barrel. It is marked by wrapping some tape around it ( at the muzzle end ). This is to effectively signal if the muzzleloader is empty or loaded.

A softball has a mass of 0.18 kg. What is the gravitational force on Earth due to the ball, and what is the Earth's resulting ac

alexgriva [62]

Answer:F=1.7802

Explanation:

Since we've been given the mass to be .18kg,we are asked to find the Force of which the formulae is

F=ma where f-force,m-mass and a-acceleration due to gravity

So we can just substitute

F-?.m=.18 and a9.89

F=.18×9.89

F=1.7802N

If the action force is the swimmer pushing water in the leftward direction, what is the reaction force?

Sphinxa [80]

According to Newton's Third Law of Motion, to every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction; action and reaction act on different bodies.
Here, the action force is in the leftward direction, so the reaction will be in the opposite direction.
If the action force is the swimmer pushing water in the leftward direction, then the reaction force is in the rightward direction.
And the reaction force will be given by the water on the swimmer.

Answer:

The reaction force is the water pushing the swimmer in the rightward direction.

Hope you could get an idea from here.

Point charge q1 of 30 nC is separated by 50 cm from point charge q2 of -45 nC. As shown in the diagram, point a is located 30 cm

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

E1 = 2996.667N/C E2 = 11237.5N/C

Explanation:

E1 = kQ1/r^2

=8.99 x 10^9 x 30 x 10^-9/(30x10^-2)^2

= 2996.667N/C

E2 = kQ2/r^2

= 8.99 x 10^9 x 50 x 10^-9/(20x10^-2)^2

= 11237.5N/C

The direction are towards the point a

Two red and two overlapping balls in the center are surrounded by a green, fuzzy, circular cloud with a white line running throu

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

A. The line leading a bracket around the balls, labeled A, represents the nucleus of the atom.

B. The white line, labeled B, is signaling the first main energy level, as per the quantum model of the atom.

Explanation:

You are describing the model of an atom with two protons, two neutrons, the electron density (orbital), and two electrons.

Then, you want to know what the labels A and B represent.

The nucleus of the atom is at the center, where protons and neutrons are placed. This is supported by three models: Rutherford's model, Bohr's model, and the (currently accepted) quantum model.

Hence, the red balls and the two overlapping balls in the center are representing the protons and neutrons.

The line leading a bracket around the balls, labeled A, represents the nucleus of the atom, since it is signaling both protons and neutrons in the nucleus.

The green fuzzy circular cloud depicts the region where the electrons are: it is fuzzy in correspondence to the quantum model, which states the electrons are not in a fixed position but in a region around the atom. That region is named orbitals. As per the model you cannot tell the exact position of the electron, and that is what the fuzzy cloud means.

In the the Bohr's model that white line, which should be circular, where the electrons are, depicts the orbit of the electrons, and the shell, which were idenfified with letters L, M, N, K. The first shell was the L shell.

In the quantum model, that line corresponds to the principal quantum number n, which is the main energy level. Hence, the line leading to a bracket overlapping the white line depicts the main energy level.

The atom is neutral because it contains the same number of electrons aroud the nucleus as protons inside the nucleus.

If the resistance of dry skin is 200 times larger than the resistance of wet skin, how do the maximum voltages without shock com

Lelu [443]

Answer:

B) The voltage on dry skin needs to be 200 times larger than the voltage on wet skin.

Explanation:

This is the complete question

A person will feel a shock when a current of greater than approximately 100μ A flows between his index finger and thumb. If the resistance of dry skin is 200 times larger than the resistance of wet skin, how do the maximum voltages without shock compare in each scenario?

A) The voltage on dry skin needs to be 200 times smaller than the voltage on wet skin.

B) The voltage on dry skin needs to be 200 times larger than the voltage on wet skin.

C) The voltage on dry skin is the same as the voltage on wet skin.

D) The voltage on dry skin needs to be 40,000 times larger than the voltage on wet skin.

Ohm's law states that electric current is proportional to voltage and inversely proportional to resistance.

the equation is written as

V = IR

Where V is the voltage

I is the current

R is the resistance

for this case, the current I is 100μ A = 100 x 10^16 A

resistance of wet skin = R

resistance of dry skin = 200R

for the wet skin, voltage will be

V = IR = $100*10^{-6} R$

for dry skin, voltage will be

V = IR = $100*10^{-6}*200R = 0.02R$

Comparing both voltages

$0.02R$ ÷ $100*10^{-6} R$ = 200

this means that the voltage on the wet skin should be 200 times lesser than the voltage on the dry skin or the voltage on the dry skin should be 200 times more than the voltage on the wet skin.
