Ok so it usually includes the evaluation of symptom and disorder severity, patterns of symptoms over time number, frequency, and duration of episodes, and the patient's strengths and weaknesses.

How does an octopus or a squid uses Newton's third law of motion to escape from enemies

Sloan [31]

I think everytime they swim away, the water pushes the enemy back, which makes the octopus go faster. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Hope this helps.

It is known that the gravitational force of attraction between two alpha particles is much weaker than the electrical repulsion.

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

The ratio of gravitational force to electrical force is 3.19 x 10^-36

Explanation:

mass of an alpha particle = 6.64 x $10^{-27}$ kg

charge on an alpha particle = +2e = +2(1.6 x $10^{-19}$ C) = 3.2 x $10^{-19}$ C

distance between particles = d

For gravitational attraction:

The force of gravitational attraction F = $\frac{Gm^{2} }{r^{2} }$

where G = gravitational constant = 6.67 x $10^{-11}$ m^3 kg^-1 s^-2

r = the distance between the particles = d

m = the mass of each particle

therefore, gravitational force = $\frac{6.67*10^{-11}*(6.64*10^{-27} )^{2} }{d^{2} }$ = $\frac{2.94*10^{-63} }{d^{2} }$ Newton

For electrical repulsion:

Electrical force between the particles = $\frac{-kQ^{2} }{r^{2} }$

where k is the Coulomb's constant = 9.0 x $10^{9}$ N•m^2/C^2

r = distance between the particles = d

Q = charge on each particle

therefore, electrical force = $\frac{-9*10^{9}*(3.2*10^{-19} )^{2} }{d^{2} }$ = $\frac{-9.216*10^{-28} }{d^{2} }$ Newton

the negative sign implies that there is a repulsion on the particles due to their like charges.

Ratio of the magnitude of gravitation to electrical force = $\frac{2.94*10^{-63} }{9.216*10^{-28} }$

==> 3.19 x 10^-36

In a thunderstorm, the air must be ionized by a high voltage before a conducting path for a lightning bolt can be created. an el

nydimaria [60]

We know that the electric field is equal to 1 E 6 V/m

The distance between the thundercloud and the ground is 1.6km = 1600m

Electric field = Voltage/distance

This means that the breakdown voltage must be equal to

V = 1 E 6 V/m * 1600m = 1.6 E 9 V = 1.6 GV

What force is described as the attraction between a sample of matter and all other matter in the universe?

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Gravitational Force

Explanation:

Gravitational force also called gravity or gravitation is an attractive force that keeps two objects in space. Gravitational force is an attractive force that tends to pull matters together. Every objects in the universe experience gravitational pull. Planets, stars, galaxies, are held together by gravity. It is a weak force. The weight of an object is the product of gravitational force acting on its mass.

Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation states the force of attraction between two masses m₁ and m₂ in the universe is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of their distance apart.

$F = G\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{r^2}$
