Your friend is correct because the last earthquake happened 10 years ago which means another one would happen that year...... if that makes sense

Answer

your friend is correct.

Explanation

If the fault has experienced an earthquake every 10 years and that the last one was 10 years ago then this year would be the year it goes off again.

A hot iron horseshoe (mass = 0.35 kg ), just forged, is dropped into 1.40 L of water in a 0.45 kg iron pot initially at 22.0°C.
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

420 °C

Explanation:

m_{h} = mass of the horseshoe = 0.35 kg

m_{w} = mass of the water = 1.40 L = 1.40 kg

m_{i} = mass of the iron pot = 0.45 kg

c_{i} = specific heat of iron = 450 J kg⁻¹ °C⁻¹

c_{w} = specific heat of water = 4186 J kg⁻¹ °C⁻¹

T_{hi} = initial temperature of the horseshoe = ?

T_{wi} = initial temperature of the water = 22 °C

T_{pi} = initial temperature of the iron pot = 22 °C

T_{f} = final temperature = 32 °C

Using conservation of Heat

m_{h}c_{i}(T_{hi} - T_{f}) = m_{w}c_{w}(T_{f} - T_{wi}) + m_{i}c_{i}(T_{f} - T_{pi})

(0.35)(450)(T_{hi} - 32) = (1.40)(4186)(32 - 22) + (0.45)(450)(32 - 22)

(157.5)(T_{hi} - 32) = 60629

T_{hi} - 32 = 384.95

T_{hi} = 420 °C

A proton is confined to a space 1 fm wide (about the size of an atomic nucleus). What's the minimum uncertainty in its velocity?
Daniel [21]

Answer:

Minimum uncertainty in velocity of a proton,\Delta v\ge 3.15\times 10^7\ m/s      

Explanation:

It is given that,

A proton is confined to a space 1 fm wide, \Delta x=10^{-15}\ m

We need to find the minimum uncertainty in its velocity. We know that the Heisenberg Uncertainty principle gives the uncertainty between position and the momentum such that,

\Delta p.\Delta x\ge \dfrac{h}{4\pi}

Since, p = mv

\Delta (mv).\Delta x\ge \dfrac{h}{4\pi}

m \Delta v.\Delta x\ge \dfrac{h}{4\pi}

\Delta v\ge \dfrac{h}{4\pi m\Delta x}

\Delta v\ge \dfrac{6.63\times 10^{-34}}{4\pi \times 1.67\times 10^{-27}\times 10^{-15}}

\Delta v\ge 3.15\times 10^7\ m/s

So, the minimum uncertainty in its velocity is greater than 3.15\times 10^7\ m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

What makes up a atom
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

They're typically made up of three main parts: protons, neutrons and electrons. Think of the protons and neutrons as together forming a “sun”, or nucleus, at the centre of the system. The electrons orbit this nucleus, like planets. If atoms are impossibly small, these subatomic particles are even more so.

Explanation:

hope i helped.
