An ion's position vector is initially r = 8.0 i - 4.0 j + 3.0 k, and 8.0 s later it is r = 4.0 i + 8.0 j - 6.0 k, all in meters.

what was its vavg during the 8.0 s?

The average velocity = Displacement between two points/ Time taken for that displacement

In this case An ion's position vector is initially r = 8.0 i - 4.0 j + 3.0 k, and 8.0 s later it is r = 4.0 i + 8.0 j - 6.0 k

So, displacement = 4.0 i + 8.0 j - 6.0 k - (8.0 i - 4.0 j + 3.0 k)

                             = -4.0 i + 12.0 j - 9.0 k

So velocity, V = (-4.0 i + 12.0 j - 9.0 k)/8

                      = -0.5 i + 1.5 j - 1.125 k

So average velocity during 8 seconds = -0.5 i + 1.5 j - 1.125 k

A parallel-plate capacitor is connected to a battery until it is fully charged. Then, the capacitor is disconnected from the bat
Helga [31]

Answer:

The potential between the plates will decrease.

Explanation:

An insulator is usually placed between the parallel plates and is also called a dielectric because it makes the amount of charge a capacitor can accommodate to increase at a particular potential difference.

Furthermore, the dielectric effect will make the electric field of the charged capacitor which is not connected to a source of supply to decrease.

Now, when the battery is removed, the charge Q remains constant and Capacity C will increase.

Formula for the potential difference is here;

V = Q/C

Since the numerator Q is constant and the denominator C increases, it means the potential difference V will decrease

A compound microscope is made with an objective lens (f0 = 0.900 cm) and an eyepiece (fe = 1.10 cm). The lenses are separated by
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

-252.52

Explanation:

L = Distance between lenses = 10 cm

D = Near point = 25 cm

f_o = Focal length of objective = 0.9 cm

f_e = Focal length of eyepiece = 1.1 cm

Magnification of a compound microscope is given by

m=-\frac{L}{f_o}\frac{D}{f_e}\\\Rightarrow m=-\frac{10}{0.9}\times \frac{25}{1.1}\\\Rightarrow m=-252.52

The angular magnification of the compound microscope is -252.52

A student claims that any object in motion must experience a force that keeps it in motion. Do you agree or disagree? Explain yo
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

I disagree

Explanation:

I think the students claim is wrong because according to Newton's First Law an object that is in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. Which makes the students claim wrong because a object doesn't require another force to keep it moving.

Thomas needs to move an 80 kg rock, but cannot lift it. He decides to use a
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

The weight of the rock is W = mg = (80 kg) (10 m/s²) = 800 N.

The mechanical advantage is therefore 800 N / 200 N = 4.

In your research lab, a very thin, flat piece of glass with refractive index 1.50 and uniform thickness covers the opening of a
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The longest wavelength in vacuum for which there is constructive interference for the reflected light, λ   = 3472.

Explanation:

Refractive index of Glass (given) = 1.5

For the case of a constructive interference,

2nt = (m + 1/2) λ

For case 1,

2nt = (m + 1/2) 496 nm

For case 2,

2nt = (m +1+ 1/2) 386 nm

2nt = (m+3/2) * 386 nm

(m + 1/2) 496 nm = (m+3/2) * 386 nm

m = 3

Inserting the value of m in 1.

2nt = (m + 1/2) 496 nm

2*1.5t = (3 + 1/2) * 496 nm

t = ((3 + 1/2) * 496 nm)/ 3

t = 578.6 nm

The thickness of the glass, t = 578.6 nm

b)

It is generally known that for constructive interference,

2nt = (m + 1/2) λ

λ = 2nt / ((m + 1/2))

For Longest Wavelength, m = 0

λ = 2*1.5*578.6/ (1/2)

λ = 3472 nm
