Iteru [2.4K]
The incorrect statement about electromagnetic waves is C. induction of electric fields by changing magnetic fields only occurs if a conducting material is present.
Electromagnetic waves do not rely on any medium for propagation, which means that the generation of fields is irrespective of the presence of a conducting material.

An alpha particle (α), which is the same as a helium-4 nucleus, is momentarily at rest in a region of space occupied by an elec
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Speed = 575 m/s

Mechanical energy is conserved in electrostatic, magnetic and gravitational forces.

Explanation:

Given :

Potential difference, U = $-3.45 \times 10^{-3} \ V$

Mass of the alpha particle, $m_{\alpha} = 6.68 \times 10^{-27} \ kg$

Charge of the alpha particle is, $q_{\alpha} = 3.20 \times 10^{-19} \ C$

So the potential difference for the alpha particle when it is accelerated through the potential difference is

$U=\Delta Vq_{\alpha}$

And the kinetic energy gained by the alpha particle is

$K.E. =\frac{1}{2}m_{\alpha}v_{\alpha}^2 $

From the law of conservation of energy, we get

$K.E. = U$

$\frac{1}{2}m_{\alpha}v_{\alpha}^2 = \Delta V q_{\alpha}$

$v_{\alpha} = \sqrt{\frac{2 \Delta V q_{\alpha}}{m_{\alpha}}}$

$v_{\alpha} = \sqrt{\frac{2(3.45 \times 10^{-3 })(3.2 \times 10^{-19})}{6.68 \times 10^{-27}}}$

$v_{\alpha} \approx 575 \ m/s$

The mechanical energy is conserved in the presence of the following conservative forces :

-- electrostatic forces

-- magnetic forces

-- gravitational forces

Explain how fluids exert pressure
Veseljchak [2.6K]
In a fluid, all the forces exerted by the individual particles combine to make up the pressure exerted by the fluid 
Due to fundamental nature of fluids, a fluid cannot remain at rest under the presence of shear stress. However, fluids can exert pressure normal to any contacting surface. If a point in the fluid is thought of as a small cube, then it follows from the principles of equilibrium that the pressure on every side of this unit of fluid must be equal. but if this were not a case, the fluid would move in the directions of the resulting force, So the pressure on a fluid at rest is isotropic.
