Answer:

Second, fundamental unit of time, now defined in terms of the radiation frequency at which atoms of the element cesium change from one state to another. The second was formerly defined as 1/86,400 of the mean solar day—i.e., the average period of rotation of the Earth on its axis relative to the Sun.

Which example best illustrates the transfer of energy between two waves?
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

A) A buoy rises in the water as a boat speeds past.

Explanation:

The passing boat transfers energy in the form of a wave. Other options illustrate other physics concepts like gravity (falling egg) or Newton's law (for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction).

I believe the answer would be mass. Low mass stars and medium mass stars often become white dwarfs when they die while high mass stars explode in violent explosions called supernovas and usually leave behind a black hole or a neutron star.

A uniform 4.4 t magnetic field points north. if an electron moves vertically downward (toward the ground) with a speed of 2.5 ×
Reil [10]

Answer:

1.8\cdot 10^{-11} N

Explanation:

The force acting on the electron due to the magnetic field is

F=qvB sin \theta

where

q=1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C is the charge of the electron

v=2.5\cdot 10^7 m/s is its speed

B=4.4 T is the intensity of the magnetic field

\theta=90^{\circ} is the angle between the direction of the field and the velocity of the electron

Substituting all the numbers into the equation, we find

F=(1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C)(2.5\cdot 10^7 m/s)(4.4 T) sin 90^{\circ}=1.8\cdot 10^{-11} N

While carrying a heavy box up the stairs,you set the box on a step and rest. Then you pick up the box and carry it to the top of
slega [8]

Answer: When the box is on a step and in a resting position then in this situation, the forces acting on the box is said to be balanced forces. While carrying the box to the top of the stair then the forces acting on it will be unbalanced forces.

Explanation:

When the box is on a step and in a resting position then the forces acting on the box are acting in an equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. Therefore, these forces are balanced forces.

While carrying the box to the top of the stair then the forces acting on it will be unbalanced forces because the box is changing its state. There is an unbalanced force which opposes the motion of the box.
