<span>Henry Moseley established a periodic table that arranges the elements by atomic number;The atomic number increases from left to right on the periodic table;Metalloids have the characteristics of both metals and nonmetals.</span>
Answer:
a. The disk
b. Because it has the smallest rotational inertia
Explanation:
a. Which object do you expect to reach the bottom of the inclined plan first?
I would expect the disk to reach the bottom first.
b. Why?
This is because the disk has the smallest rotational inertia.
The rotational inertial of the hollow sphere, disk and ring are 2/3MR², 1/2MR² and MR² respectively.
Since the three objects are rolling from the same height, they have the same mechanical energy.
But, since the disk has the smallest rotational inertia, it would have the smallest rotational kinetic energy and largest translational kinetic energy. The disk's smaller rotational kinetic energy will cause to rotate less but translate more than the other objects and thus reach the bottom first.
It’s to push an object in it’s direction of where it’s leading to.
Answer:
Earth's magnetic field deviates high energy particles (e.g cosmic rays) that are a risk for human health.
Explanation:
Cosmic rays are high energy charged particles (88% protons, 10% nuclei of helium, 1% heavier nuclei) that came from the outer space. The energies of these particles are in the range of 1 GeV to 10⁸ TeV. Since they are charged particles, they will be deviated by Earth’s magnetic field¹ (as a reminder: A magnetic field applies a magnetic force over a moving charged particle).
Earth’s magnetic field works as a shield to humans against high energy charged particles, if cosmic rays were in touch with a human body, it can break molecules that forms DNA structure². Modifying that structure can lead to diseases as cancer, for example.
Units:
GeV: Giga-electronvolt
TeV: Tera-electronvolt
¹Magnetic field: It is generated around the space of a moving charged particle.
²DNA structure: It is a compound of different molecules that provides information to cells functionality.
