Answer:

Amorphous solids are composed of atoms or molecules that are in no particular order. Each particle is in a particular spot, but the particles are in no organized pattern. Examples include rubber and wax. Crystalline solids have a very orderly, three-dimensional arrangement of atoms or molecules

Alexandra [31]

When a balloon is rubbed with human hair, the balloon acquires an excess static charge. This implies that some materials can give up electrons more readily than others.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

We know that charges can neither be created nor be destroyed by law of conservation of charges. So when we rub two objects, it is natural to have a transfer of charges. But the charges which get transferred may be negligible in most of the cases leading to no significant observations.

But for some materials, like when we rubbed a balloon with human hair, we observed clouding of excess static charge on the balloon surface. This indicates that hair can easily give up electrons to balloon leading to clouding of excess static charge on it.

Copper wire of diameter 0.289 cm is used to connect a set of appliances at 120 V, which draw 1850 W of power total. The resistiv
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

(a) The power wasted for 0.289 cm wire diameter is 15.93 W

(b) The power wasted for 0.417 cm wire diameter is 7.61 W

Explanation:

Given;

diameter of the wire, d = 0.289 cm = 0.00289 m

voltage of the wire, V = 120 V

Power drawn, P = 1850 W

The resistivity of the wire, ρ = 1.68 x 10⁻⁸ Ω⋅m

Area of the wire;

A = πd²/4

A = (π x 0.00289²) / 4

A = 6.561 x 10⁻⁶ m²

(a) At 26 m of this wire, the resistance of the is

R = ρL / A

R = (1.68 x 10⁻⁸  x 26) / 6.561 x 10⁻⁶

R = 0.067 Ω

Current in the wire is calculated as;

P = IV

I = P / V

I = 1850 / 120

I = 15.417 A

Power wasted = I²R

Power wasted = (15.417²)(0.067)

Power wasted = 15.93 W

(b) when a diameter of 0.417 cm is used instead;

d = 0.417 cm = 0.00417 m

A = πd²/4

A = (π x 0.00417²) / 4

A = 1.366 x 10⁻⁵ m²

Resistance of the wire at 26 m length of wire and  1.366 x 10⁻⁵ m² area;

R = ρL / A

R = (1.68 x 10⁻⁸  x 26) / 1.366 x 10⁻⁵

R = 0.032 Ω

Power wasted = I²R

Power wasted = (15.417²)(0.032)

Power wasted = 7.61 W

DNA’s diameter is 0.000000002 meters. What is this measurement in scientific notation? a. 2.0 x 109 m
NARA [144]

Answer:

0.000000002 m=2.0*10⁻⁹ m

Explanation:

Scientific notation allows us to write very large or very small numbers in abbreviated form. This notation simply consists of multiplying by a power of base 10 with a positive or negative exponent.

A number written in scientific notation has the form:

a*10ⁿ

where:

  • the coefficient a has a value such that 1 ≤ a <10
  • n is an integer.  Represents the number of times the decimal point is shifted. It is always a whole number, positive if it is shifted to the left, negative if it is shifted to the right.

So to write the number 0.000000002 in scientific notation, the following steps are performed:

  • The decimal point is moved to the right as many spaces until it reaches the right of the first digit.
  • This number is then written, which will be the coefficient a in the expression of the previous product. So a=2.0
  • The base 10 is written with the exponent equal to the number of spaces that the comma moves. So n=9. But this is a negative number because the comma shifts to the right.

So, you get: <u><em>0.000000002 m=2.0*10⁻⁹ m</em></u>

A person drops a pebble of mass m1 from a height h, and it hits the floor with kinetic energy KE. The person drops another pebbl
Leona [35]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em>Hello, </em>

<h3><u>QUESTION)</u></h3>

<em>✔ We have: KE = PE (potential energy) </em>

<em>PE = m x g x h </em>

The potential energy that the pebble of mass 1 has is called PE1 and the potential energy that the pebble of mass 2 has is called PE2  

PE1 = PE2 ⇔ PE1/PE2 = 1

\frac{m_1\times g\times h}{m_2\times g\times 4h} = 1 \\ \\  \frac{m_1}{m_2\times 4} = 1 \\ \\  \frac{m_1}{m_2} = 4

The mass m1 is therefore 4 times greater than that of the stone of mass m2.
