Answer:

Explanation:

The nucleus is positive because only protons live in the nucleus. Electrons (which have a minus charge ) orbit around the nucleus, but only the nucleus has positive charges.

It contains protons- which always have a positive charge, causing the nucleus to constantly be positively charged

What will cause the volume of an ideal gas to triple in value?

trapecia [35]

Answer: The volume of an ideal gas will triple in value if the pressure is reduced to one-third of its initial value

Explanation:

We can determine this from the gas laws. Using Boyle's law, which states that "the pressure of a given mass of an ideal gas is inversely proportional to its volume at a constant temperature"

Mathematically, P ∝ (1/V)

Since P ∝ (1/V), we can then write that

P = k(1/V)

Where P is the pressure, V is the volume and k is the proportionality constant

PV = k

We can then write that

P1V1 = P2V2 = P3V3 = ...

Hence, P1V1 = P2V2

Where P1 is the initial pressure of the gas

P2 is the final pressure of the gas

V1 is the initial volume of the gas

and V2 is the final volume of the gas

From the question, we want to determine what will make the new volume be thrice the initial volume.

Hence,

P1 = P

V1 = V

P2= ??

V2 = 3V

Therefore,

P × V = P2 × (3V)

P2 = PV/3V

P2 = P/3 = 1/3(P)

This means the volume of an ideal gas will triple in value if the pressure is reduced to one-third of its initial value

How does the science of heat transfer differ from the science of thermodynamics?

mariarad [96]

Answer:

The science of thermodynamics deals with the fundamental laws that guide how physical processes occur in relation with the energy transfer. When a system or process changes from one state of equilibrium to another, thermodynamics is interested with the amount of heat transfer during the process. On the other hand, the science of heat transfer is simply about the rate of heat and temperature distribution inside a system at a particular point in time.

Tidal Forces near a Black Hole. An astronaut inside a spacecraft, which protects her from harmful radiation, is orbiting a black

arlik [135]

Answer:

$833.4801043*10^6N$ on ear that is closer to Black hole.

$13.83803929*10^6N$ On ear that is farther from Black hole.

Explanation:

This problem can be solved as two masses that are at two different location from a bigger mass whose gravity affects both.

tension is an equal and opposite force that is exerted in response to applied force.

so on ear that is closer to black hole would have tension that is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to gravitational force that ear experience due to the black hole at that location.

this true for ear that is further away from black hole as well.

(1) Force on ear that is closer to black hole.

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

$m_{1}= 5*1.989*10^30kg$ is mass of Black hole.

$m_{2}= 0.030kg$ is mass of ear that is close to black hole.

$G = 6.679*10^-11m^3*kg^-1*s^-2$

r = $120km-\frac{6}{100000} km=119.99994km=119999.94m$

Note, we have subtracted because ear is closer to black hole.

plugging all this in formula gives.

$F = 833.4801043*10^6N$

That is tension of ear.

(2) Force on ear that is further from black hole.

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

$m_{1}= 5*1.989*10^30kg$ is mass of Black hole.

$m_{2}= 0.030kg$ is mass of ear that is close to black hole.

$G = 6.679*10^-11m^3*kg^-1*s^-2$

this time r is further away from black hole so it would be.

$r = 120km+\frac{6}{100000} km = 120000.06m$

Plugging this all in we get

$F = 13.83803929N$

and that is tension on ear that is further from black hole.

Notice the tension difference, and order of magnitude of tension,it is enormous .

this astronaut is lethally close to black hole.

The density of an object remains same irrespective of its shape, size and quantity.

Explanation:

Density is an intensive property. This means that regardless of the object's shape, size, or quantity, the density of that substance will always be the same. Even if you cut the object into a million pieces, they would still each have the same density. It is because density in an intensive property of matter.

I need help in my physics class and show me how it’s done

Korolek [52]

If we have the angle and magnitude of a vector A we can find its Cartesian components using the following formula

$A_x = |A|cos(\alpha)\\\\A_y = |A|sin(\alpha)$

Where | A | is the magnitude of the vector and $\alpha$ is the angle that it forms with the x axis in the opposite direction to the hands of the clock.
