The nucleus contains protons and neutrons. Being positively charged, the protons repel each other. The nucleus should fly apart

due to the repulsive force. Yet, the nuclei of most atoms are stable - explain. (5 points)

this is due to the existence of other forces called the strong nuclear forces that overcomes the repulsion forces between the protons and keeps the nucleons holding to each other also there is a type of energy that is called the nuclear binding energy and this energy also works on binding the components of the nucleus together

A simple pendulum consists of a point mass suspended by a weightless, rigid wire in a uniform gravitation field. Check all that
9966 [12]

Answer:

f.The period is independent of the suspended mass.

Explanation:

The period of a pendulum is given by

T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

where

L is the length of the pendulum

g is the acceleration due to gravity

From the formula, we see that:

1) the period of the pendulum depends only on its length, L, and it is proportional to the square root of the length

2) the period does not depend neither on the mass of the pendulum, nor on its amplitude of oscillation

So, the only correct statements are

f.The period is independent of the suspended mass.

Note: statement "e.The period is proportional to the length of the wire" is also wrong, because the period is NOT proportional to the length of the wire, but it is proportional to the square root of it.

A car starts from rest and acquires a velocity of 50m/s in 3secs. Calculate i) acceleration ii) distance covered.
mafiozo [28]

Answer: 75.02 m

Explanation:

u = 0 ( starts from rest )

v = 50 m/s

t = 3 s

( i ) a = v - u / t

= 50 - 0 /3

= 16.67

( ii ) s = ut + 1/2 at²

= 0 × 3 + 1/2 × 16.67 × 3 × 3

= <u>75.02 m</u>

Hope this helps...

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

Time of flight  A is greatest

Explanation:

Let u₁ , u₂, u₃ be their initial velocity and θ₁ , θ₂ and θ₃ be their angle of projection. They all achieve a common highest height of H.

So

H = u₁² sin²θ₁ /2g

H = u₂² sin²θ₂ /2g

H = u₃² sin²θ₃ /2g

On the basis of these equation we can write

u₁ sinθ₁ =u₂ sinθ₂=u₃ sinθ₃

For maximum range we can write

D = u₁² sin2θ₁ /g

1.5 D = u₂² sin2θ₂ / g

2 D =u₃² sin2θ₃ / g

1.5 D / D = u₂² sin2θ₂ /u₁² sin2θ₁

1.5 = u₂ cosθ₂ /u₁ cosθ₁      ( since , u₁ sinθ₁ =u₂ sinθ₂ )

u₂ cosθ₂ >u₁ cosθ₁

u₂ sinθ₂ < u₁ sinθ₁

2u₂ sinθ₂ / g < 2u₁ sinθ₁ /g

Time of flight B < Time of flight  A

Similarly we can prove

Time of flight C < Time of flight B

Hence Time of flight  A is greatest .
