Answer:

24 cm/s

Explanation:

Applying

Pythagoras theorem,

a² = b²+c²............. Equation 1

Where a = resultant, b = vertical component, c = horizontal component

From the question,

Given: a = 26 cm/s, c = 10 cm/s

Substitute these values into equation 1

26² = b²+10²

676 = b²+100

b² = 676-100

b² = 576

b = √576

b = 24 cm/s

How does the nuclear charge relate to the energy of the 1s orbital?
nlexa [21]

Explanation:

Effective nuclear charge is defined as he net positive charge experienced by an electron in an atom. It is termed "effective" because the shielding effect of electrons prevents higher orbital electrons from experiencing the full nuclear charge of the nucleus due to the repelling effect of inner-layer electrons.

The 1s is the closest shell to the nucleus of an therefore maximum nuclear charge is experienced. The formula for effective nuclear charge is:

Zeff = Z – S

where

Z = the number of protons in the nucleus, and

S = the shielding constant, the average number of electrons between the nucleus and the electron.

Hence, the energy required to remove an electron from the 1s orbital is the strongest.

Does a ball rolling on an inclined plane have the same acceleration on the way up as it does on the way down?
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

No, it does not.

Explanation:

According to the Law of Gravitation, something going down has more kinetic energy than something going up because it attracts pressure from around it when going down. When it goes up, it has less gravitational force and inertia also stops the ball from rolling upward. Therefore, without the amount of kinetic energy, it will not have the same amount of acceleration.

How does the capacitance of capacitor vary with the dielectric resistant of a medium
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

Every dielectric medium will have a dielectric (strength) constant.

For space / vacuum it is 1. For rest of the dielectric media, it is greater than 1. The capacitance of a capacitor filled with a material of dielectric constant k, is given by the relation:

C = k . C0 (where C0 is the capacitance with space / vacuum as the dielectric material in that capacitor which means no dielectric between the plates)

So, it clearly states that the higher the dielectric constant, the more the capacitance i.e. it is directly proportional to the dielectric strength.

Dielectric constant varies with temperature.

A guitar string is 1.75 m. Calculate the wavelength of the 78th harmonic *
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

0.04 m

Explanation:

The harmonic is given by λ = 2L/n were L= length of guitar string = 1.75 m and n = harmonic = 78.

So, λ = 2L/n = λ = 2 × 1.75 m/78 = 0.044 m ≅ 0.04 m
