Answer:

Explanation:

You can separate the components of the mixture by stirring the powder with a magnet; the iron filings will stick to the magnet while the sulfur will not. Another (less messy) option is to swirl the powder with the magnet under the container; the iron will fall toward the magnet at the bottom.

The electrical conductivity of a substance depends on the ability of the ____ in it to move. A) electrons B) neutrons C) protons

musickatia [10]

The correct answer to the question is A) Electrons.

EXPLANATION:

The electrical conductivity of a metal or any substance depends on the free electron concentration of the metals.

Free electrons are those electrons which are present in the conduction band of the metals. These electrons experience less amount of force attraction from the nucleus. Protons and neutrons do not contribute anything to the current conduction in a metal.These sub atomic particles are bound to the nuclei of atoms.

When we maintain potential difference across the two ends of a conductor, the free electrons are drifted towards the positive terminal of the battery.

Hence, electrical conductivity of a substance is the ability of the electrons to move inside the substance.

More is the conductivity of the substance, the lesser is the resistance to the flow of electrons inside the substance, and vice versa.

Irina finds an unlabeled box of fine needles, and wants to determine how thick they are. A standard ruler will not do the job, a

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

$d=\frac{1.22\times 640\times 10^{-9}\times 21.7}{7.35\times 10^{-2}}=2305.21\times 10^{-7}m$

Explanation:

The expression which represent the first diffraction minima by a circular aperture is given by $d sin\Theta =1.22\lambda$ --------eqn 1

The angle through which the first minima is diffracted is given by $tan\Theta =\frac{y_1}{D}$ ---------eqn 2

As $\Theta$ is very small so we can write $sin\Theta =tan\Theta$

So from eqn 1 and eqn 2 we can write

$y_1=\frac{1.22\lambda D}{d}$ --------eqn 3

Here $y_1$ is the position of first maxima D is the distance of screen from the circular aperture d is the diameter of aperture

It is given that diameter of circular aperture is 14.7 cm so $y_1=\frac{14.7}{2}=7.35 \ cm$

Now putting all these value in eqn 3

$d=\frac{1.22\lambda D}{y_1}$

$d=\frac{1.22\times 640\times 10^{-9}\times 21.7}{7.35\times 10^{-2}}=2305.21\times 10^{-7}m$

A tennis ball connected to a string is spun around in a vertical, circular path at a uniform speed. The ball has a mass m = 0.16

ycow [4]

We assign the variables: T as tension and x the angle of the string
The centripetal acceleration is expressed as v²/r=4.87²/0.9 and (0.163x4.87²)/0.9 = T+0.163gcosx, giving T=(0.163x4.87²)/0.9 – 0.163x9.8cosx.

(1)At the bottom of the circle x=π and T=(0.163x4.87²)/0.9 – .163*9.8cosπ=5.893N. 
(2)Here x=π/2 and T=(0.163x4.87²)/0.9 – 0.163x9.8cosπ/2=4.295N. 
(3)Here x=0 and T=(0.163x4.87²)/0.9 – 0.163x9.8cos0=2.698N. 
(4)We have T=(0.163v²)/0.9 – 0.163x9.8cosx.

This minimum v is obtained when T=0 and v verifies (0.163xv²)/0.9 – 0.163x9.8=0, resulting to v=2.970 m/s.

A rock falls off a cliff. How fast will it be going after falling for 4.33 seconds?

bixtya [17]

Answer:42.43m/s

Explanation:According to vf=vi+at, we can calculate it since v0 equals to 0. vf=0+9.8m/s^2*4.33s= 42.434m/s
