How dose an atom change if all of its electrons are removed

Anni [7]

Answer:

When all the electrons are removed from an atom, it becomes something as a positively charged particles also known as alpha particles.

<u>Explanation: </u>

The bare nucleus which is positively charged help in scattering experiments as it has high penetrating powers. <em>An atom is made up of electrons, protons and neutrons. We need huge energy to separate the electrons from their parent atom, still making it separated brings you a particle with a positive charge and only mass having high penetrating power. </em>

9. A 5.0 kg block on an inclined plane is acted upon by a horizontal force of 100 N shown in the figure below. The coefficient o

Helga [31]

Answer:

A: The acceleration is 7.7 m/s up the inclined plane.

B: It will take the block 0.36 seconds to move 0.5 meters up along the inclined plane

Explanation:

Let us work with variables and set

$m=5kg\\\\F_H=100N\\\\\mu=0.3\\\\\theta=37^o.$

As shown in the attached free body diagram, we choose our coordinates such that the x-axis is parallel to the inclined plane and the y-axis is perpendicular. We do this because it greatly simplifies our calculations.

Part A:

From the free body diagram we see that the total force along the x-axis is:

$F_{tot}=mg*sin(\theta)+F_s-F_Hcos(\theta).$

Now the force of friction is $F_s=\mu*N,$ where $N$ is the normal force and from the diagram it is $F_y=mg*cos(\theta).$

Thus $F_s=\mu*N=\mu*mg*cos(\theta).$

Therefore,

$F_{tot}=mg*sin(\theta)+\mu*mg*cos(\theta)-F_Hcos(\theta)\\\\=mg(sin(\theta)+\mu*cos(\theta))-F_Hcos(\theta).$

Substituting the value for $F_H,m,\mu, and \:\theta$ we get:

$F_{tot}= -38.63N.$

Now acceleration is simply

$a=\frac{F_H}{m} =\frac{-38.63N}{5kg} =-7.7m/s.$

The negative sign indicates that the acceleration is directed up the incline.

Part B:

$d=\frac{1}{2} at^2$

Which can be rearranged to solve for t:

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2d}{a} }$

Substitute the value of $d=0.50m$ and $a=7.7m/s$ and we get:

$t=0.36s.$

which is our answer.

Notice that in using the formula to calculate time we used the positive value of $a$ , because for this formula absolute value is needed.

How is energy harnessed to do useful work?

baherus [9]

Answer:

But there are ways to harness kinetic energy to either generate useful mechanical work or electricity. This is what many have tried to do to make use of energy that would be otherwise wasted. One way to harness kinetic energy that has popped up many times in recent years has to do with roads and speed bumps
