How can a scientist assess whether a pure niobium sample is responsible for contaminating the lab with radioactivity

d1i1m1o1n [39]

A scientist can assess whether a pure niobium sample is responsible for contaminating the lab with radioactivity by testing the sample. By testing the niobium sample, a scientist can determine whether it has any other element.

The Lamborghini Huracan has an initial acceleration of 0.75g. Its mass, with a driver, is 1510 kg.

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

11109.825 N

Explanation:

Given Data:

total mass =m=1510 kg

initial acceleration (a) =0.75g ( g=9.81 m/s² )

F=ma

= (1510)*( 0.75*9.81)

= 11109.825 N

Charge X has twice as much charge as particle Y. The two charges are placed near each other. Compared to the force on particle X

Art [367]

The force on charge Y is the same as the force on charge X

Explanation:

We can answer this problem by applying Newton's third law of motion, which states that:

"When an object A exerts a force on object B (action force), then object B exerts an equal and opposite force on object A (reaction force)"

In this problem, we can identify object A as charge X and object B as charge Y. The magnitude of the electrostatic force between them is given by

$F=k\frac{q_x q_y}{r^2}$ (1)

where:

$k=8.99\cdot 10^9 Nm^{-2}C^{-2}$ is the Coulomb's constant

$q_x, q_y$ are the two charges

r is the separation between the two charges

According to Newton's third law, therefore, the magnitude of the force exerted by charge X on charge Y is the same as the force exerted by charge Y on charge X (and it is given by eq.(1)), however their directions are opposite.

(a) Neil A. Armstrong was the first person to walk on the moon. The distance between the earth and the moon is 3.85 108 m. Find

Goshia [24]

Answer:

It took 1.28 seconds to his voice to reach the Earth via radio waves.

Explanation:

The electromagnetic spectrum is the distribution of radiation due to the different frequencies at which it radiates and its different intensities, that radiation is formed by electromagnetic waves, which are transverse waves formed by an electric field and a magnetic field perpendicular to it.

The distribution of the radiation in the electromagnetic spectrum can also be given in wavelengths, but it is more frequent to work with it at frequencies, the highest being that of gamma rays, followed by X-rays, ultraviolet rays and the visible region , and those of lower frequencies, which correspond to infrared, microwave and radio waves.

Light propagates as electromagnetic wave in vacuum with a speed of $3x10^{8}m/s$ . Therefore, radio waves will have in vacuum the same speed.
