Answer:

Option (e)

Explanation:

A body executing SHM moves to and fro or back and forth  about its mean position.

When the particle is at mean position, its velocity is maximum and when it is at extreme position its velocity is zero.

So, when it is at maximum distance:

a.

The acceleration is maximum.

b.

The potential energy is maximum.

c.

The total mechanical energy is non zero.

d.

The kinetic energy is zero.

e. The speed is zero. Correct

Changes of state
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

At segment T-U, the substance changes from a liquid to a gas and does not change temperature.

The reason is because latent heat of vaporisation allows for the absorption of heat in the change of state and temperature remains constant until it has fully changed state.

Which best contrasts Newton's and Einstein's ideas?
Len [333]

Answer:

Newton believed that mass tells gravity how much force to exert. Einstein believed that mass tells space-time how to curve.

Explanation:

Isaac Newton believed that bodies on earth had a force of gravity pulling them down as a result of their masses.

Albert Einstein believed that the bodies were not pulled down but were moving around in a circular sphere/manner.

This confirms Newton believing that mass tells gravity how much force to exert and Einstein believing that mass tells space-time how to curve.

Heating gas to create plasma can yield A) neutrons. B) elements. C) molecules. D) free electrons.
Romashka [77]
<h2>Answer: free electrons</h2>

<u>Plasma</u> is known as the 4th state of matter and is itself ionized gas. In this sense, ionization consists of the production of ions, which are <u>electrically charged atoms or molecules due to</u><u> the excess or lack of electrons</u><u> with respect to a neutral atom or molecule. </u>

That is why in this process there are always<u> free electrons</u>. Therefore in heating gas to create plasma can yield  free electrons, and the correct option is D.

A proton, starting from rest, accelerates through a potential difference of 1.0 kV and then moves into a magnetic field of 0.040
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

r = 0.11 m

Explanation:

The radius of the proton's resulting orbit can be calculated equaling the force centripetal (Fc) with the Lorentz force (F_{B}), as follows:

F_{c} = F_{B} \rightarrow \frac{m*v^{2}}{r} = qvB (1)

<u>Where:</u>

<em>m: is the proton's mass =  1.67*10⁻²⁷ kg</em>

<em>v: is the proton's velocity</em>

<em>r: is the radius of the proton's orbit</em>

<em>q: is the proton charge = 1.6*10⁻¹⁹ C</em>

<em>B: is the magnetic field = 0.040 T </em>

Solving equation (1) for r, we have:

r = \frac{mv}{qB}   (2)

By conservation of energy, we can find the velocity of the proton:

K = U \rightarrow \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} = q*\Delta V   (3)

<u>Where:</u>

<em>K: is kinetic energy</em>

<em>U: is electrostatic potential energy</em>

<em>ΔV: is the potential difference = 1.0 kV </em>

Solving equation (3) for v, we have:

v = \sqrt{\frac{2q\Dela V}{m}} = \sqrt{\frac{2*1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C*1.0 \cdot 10^{3} V}{1.67 \cdot 10^{-27} kg}} = 4.38 \cdot 10^{5} m/s  

Now, by introducing v into equation (2), we can find the radius of the proton's resulting orbit:

r = \frac{mv}{qB} = \frac{1.67 \cdot 10^{-27} kg*4.38 \cdot 10^{5} m/s}{1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C*0.040 T} = 0.11 m

Therefore, the radius of the proton's resulting orbit is 0.11 m.

I hope it helps you!
