Arte-miy333 [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: Yes and no.

Explanation: Mass is the amount of matter in an object, whereas weight is the force exerted on an object by gravity. Objects on the surface of the earth have weight, although sometimes the weight is difficult to measure.

A resistor is connected in series with a power supply of 23.90 V. The current measure is 0.60 A. What is the resistance (in Ω) o
Yuliya22 [10]

The resistance in this circuit is 39.8 ohms.

Explanation:

Any circuit having resistor, battery and ammeter connected in series will obey the ohm's law in basic case. So according to the Ohm's law, the current flowing in the circuit through the ammeter will be equal to the voltage shown in the voltmeter or battery and resistor is the proportionality constant. So with this law

V = IR

So, Resistance R = V/I

As the voltage is given as 23.90 V and the current is given as 0.6 A, then resistance is

R = 23.90/0.6 = 39.8 ohms.

So, the resistance in this circuit is 39.8 ohms.

A car is traveling at 40 m/s for 20 seconds. How far did it travel in this time?
barxatty [35]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

800 meters

<h3>Explanation;</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

  • Speed as 40 m/s
  • Time as 20 seconds

We are required to determine the distance traveled

  • Speed refers to the rate of change in distance.
  • It is given by;

Speed = Distance ÷ time

Rearranging the formula;

Distance = speed × time

In this case;

Distance = 40 m/s × 20 sec

              = 800 meters

Thus, the distance traveled by the car is 800 m

Ernest Rutherford (the first New Zealander to be awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry) demonstrated that nuclei were very small
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

The final kinetic energy of the Helium nucleus (alpha particle) after been scattered through an angle of 120° is

8.00 x 10-13J

Explanation:

In Rutherford Scattering experiment, the collision of the helium nucleus with the gold nucleus is an ELASTIC COLLISION. This means that the kinetic energy is conserved ( The same before and after the collision).

Thus, the final kinetic energy of the helium nucleus is the same as initial kinetic energy (8.00 x 10^-13Joules)

Although, the kinetic energy is converted to potential energy in Coulomb's law equation.

That is,

1/2(mv^2) = (K* q1q2)/r

Where m is the mass of helium nucleus, v is its colliding velocity, k is electrostatic constant, q1 is the charge on helium nucleus, q2 is the charge on gold nucleus, r is impact parameter
