“The term significant figures refers to the number of important single digits (0 through 9 inclusive) in the coefficient of an expression in scientific notation . The number of significant figures in an expression indicates the confidence or precision with which an engineer or scientist states a quantity.”

What are the names of the 2 charged particles in an atom and what are their charges
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

Protons and electrons

Explanation:

  • The atoms are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
  • The physical and chemical characteristics of an atom are determined by the number of these particle composition.
  • The protons present in the center of an atom called the nucleus is positively charged.
  • The neutrons are also located in the nucleus of an atom with no charge.
  • The electrons has a negative charge and it is placed around the nucleus having different shells and quantum state.
  • The charges of the protons and electrons are denoted by +q and -q. The quantization of these charges are +1, +2, ... and -1, -2, .... etc.

. A solenoid coil consists of a single layer of 250 circular turns of wire with each turn having a 0.02m radius. The axial lengt
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

a)    L = 3.29 10⁻⁴ H,  b)U = 5.33 10⁻²  J

Explanation:

a) The inductance is a solenoid this given carrier

           L = \frac{N \ \phi_B }{I}

The magnetic field inside the solenoid is

          B = μ₀ \frac{N}{l}  i

hence the magnetic flux

          Ф_B = B. A = μ₀ \frac{N \ A}{l \ i}

we substitute in the expression of inductance

          L = N² μ₀ A /l

let's find the area of ​​each turn

          A = π r²

         A = π 0.02²

         A = 1.2566 10⁻³ m²

let's calculate

          L = 250² 4π 10⁻⁷ 1.2566 10⁻² / 0.3

          L = 3.29 10⁻⁴ H

b) The stored energy is

           U = ½ L i²

let's calculate

            U = ½ 3.29 10⁻⁴ 18²

            U = 5.33 10⁻²  J

Four cylindrical wires of different sizes are made of the same material. Which of the following combinations of length and cross
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

Explanation:

For resistance of a wire , the formula is as follows .

R = ρ L/S

where ρ is specific resistance , L is length and S is cross sectional area of wire .

for first wire resistance

R₁ =  ρ 3L/3a = ρ L/a

for second wire , resistance

R₂ = ρ 3L/6a

= .5 ρ L/a

For 3 rd wire resistance

R₃ = ρ 6L/3a

= 2ρ L/a

For fourth wire , resistance

R₄ = ρ 6L/6a

=  ρ L/a

So the smallest resistance is of second wire .

Its resistance is .5 ρ L/a

A 13-N east horizontal force acts in the same direction as a 6.4kg block as it slides 2.5m/s on a frictionless, horizontal surfa
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

6.77 m/s

Explanation:

Acceleration = Force/mass;

The block is accelerated by 13/6.4 m/s^2 for 2.1s from an initial velocity of 2.5m/s.

Applying the equation of motion:

Vf=Vi + at

Where Vf is the final velocity, Vi is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time for which the object accelerates.

<h3>Vf= 2.5 + ((13/6.4)*2.1);</h3>
