The answer is B
I used these equations then i putted it together.
Charge = number of ( electron or proton ) x charge of ( electron or proton )
Force = k x (q1 q2)/r²

Suppose you are in an elevator that is moving upward with a constant velocity. A scale inside the elevator shows your weight to
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

a) Less than 600 N

b) 600 N

c) Less than 600 N

Explanation:

The value registered by the scale, measures the normal force on the object placed on the scale.

The person on the scale, is acted by two external forces, gravity (which we call weight, and always go downward) and the normal force, an upward force in this case.

The difference between both forces, according Newton’s 2nd law, must be equal to the product of the mass of the object, times the acceleration.

If the elevator moves upward to a constant speed, and then slows down, this means that there exists a net force on the person, producing a acceleration directed downwards on him.

If we take the direction of the acceleration (downward) to be positive, this means that the difference between gravity force and normal force must be positive.

As mg = 600 N (equal to normal force when no net force is present), the normal force in this case must be less than 600 N.

b) If the elevator is stopped, the effect is the same like it were moving at constant speed, so in this case the normal force remains the same: 600 N

c) Assuming that it starts from rest, if it accelerates going downward, and if we take as positive the downward direction, in order to satisfy Newton’s 2nd Law, normal force must be less than 600N so the difference between gravity and normal force remain positive.

If we decrease the size of a quantum dot that contains an electron, what happens to the energy levels?
Law Incorporation [45]

We will solve this problem using the direct concept related to band gap energy, that is, a band gap is the distance between the valence band of electrons and the conduction band, i. e, the energy range in a solid where no electron states (Electronic state) can exist Mathematically can be described as,

E_n = \frac{h^2n^2}{8mcR^2}

Where,

h = Planck's constant

n = Energy level

mc = Effective mass of the point charge

R = Size of the particle

As you can see the energy is inversely proportional to the size of the particle:

E_n \propto \frac{1}{R^2}

Therefore if the size is decreased, the amount of energy is increased.

Which scientific law is also known as the law of inertia? PLZ HELP ASAPPPPPPPPP!!!
Flauer [41]

Answer:

Newton's First Law of Motion

Explanation:

Without external forces acting on an object, the object tends to move at constant speed in a straight line. This property is referred to as inertia. Newton's first law states this natural observation.

Gaseous helium is in thermal equilibrium with liquid helium at 6.4 K. The mass of a helium atom is 6.65 × 10−27 kg and Boltzmann
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

162.78 m/s is the most probable speed of a helium atom.

Explanation:

The most probable speed:

v_{mp}=\sqrt{\frac{2K_bT}{m}}

K_b= Boltzmann’s constant =1.38066\times 10^{-23} J/K

T = temperature of the gas

m = mass of the gas particle.

Given, m = 6.65\times 10^{-27} kg

T = 6.4 K

Substituting all the given values :

v_{mp}=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 1.38066\times 10^{-23} J/K\times 6.4 K}{6.65\times 10^{-27} kg}}

v_{mp}=162.78 m/s

162.78 m/s is the most probable speed of a helium atom.
