Answer:

12.5J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of bucket = 1.7kg

Height = 75cm = 0.75m

Unknown;

Work done on the bucket by the person = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the work done equation;

Work done = force x distance = mgh

m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height

Now, insert parameters and solve ;

Work done = 1.7 x 9.8 x 0.75 = 12.5J

Particle motion in surface waves is __________ motion.

gulaghasi [49]

<h3>Answer;</h3>

<em>B.)neither longitudinal nor transverse</em>

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

<em><u>Longitudinal waves</u></em> are waves in which the vibration of particles is parallel to the direction of the wave motion.
<em><u>Transverse waves</u></em> on the other hand are those waves in which the vibration of particles is perpendicular to the direction of the wave motion.
In <em><u>surface waves particles in the medium of transmission move in a circular motion.</u></em> Therefore, they are neither transverse waves nor longitudinal waves.

Would water molecules in Venus’ atmosphere, whose temperature is 740 K, escape into outer space? A water molecule has a mass tha

Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

The water molecule cannot escape, since the average velocity of the water molecules is less than one sixth of the escape velocity of venus.

Explanation:

The average speed of gas molecules is given by:

$v_{rms}=\sqrt{\frac{3RT}{M}}$

R is the gas constant, T is the temperature and M the molar mass of the gas.

We know that a water molecule has a mass that is 18 times that of a hydrogen atom:

$M_H=1.01*10^{-3}\frac{kg}{mol}\\M_{H2O}=18M_H=0.02\frac{kg}{mol}$

So, we have:

$v_{rms}=\sqrt{\frac{3(8.314\frac{J}{mol \cdot K})740K}{0.02\frac{kg}{mol}}}\\v_{rms}=960.65\frac{m}{s}*\frac{1km}{1000m}=0.96\frac{km}{s}$

The water molecule cannot escape, since the average velocity of the water molecules is less than one sixth of the escape velocity of venus:

$10\frac{km}{s}*\frac{1}{6}=1.6\frac{km}{s}\\0.96\frac{km}{s}$

A gold wire that is 1.8 mm in diameter and 15 cm long carries a current of 260 mA. How many electrons per second pass a given cr

Musya8 [376]

Answer:

162500000.

Explanation:

Given that

Diameter of the wire , d= 1.8 mm

The length of the wire ,L = 15 cm

Current ,I = 260 m A

The charge on the electron ,e= 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

We know that Current I is given as

$I=\dfrac{q}{t}$

I=Current

q=Charge

t=time

q= I t

q= 260 m t

The total number of electron = n

q= n e

$n=\dfrac{260\times 10^{-3}\ t}{1.6\times 10^{-9}}$

n=162500000 t

$\dfrac{n}{t}=16250000$

The number of electron passe per second will be 162500000.
