Answer:

F/2

Explanation:

In the first case, the two charges are Q1 and Q2 and the distance between them is r. K is the Coulomb's constant

Hence;

F= KQ1Q2/r^2 ------(1)

Where the charge on Q1 is doubled and the distance separating the charges is also doubled;

F= K2Q1 Q2/(2r)^2

F2= 2KQ1Q2/4r^2 ----(2)

F2= F/2

Comparing (1) and (2)

The magnitude of force acting on each of the two particles is;

F= F/2

Julio blows air across his hot bowl of soup. The tiny ripples he creates are similar to _____.
Allushta [10]

The tiny ripples on the soup are not only similar to wind-generated
waves ... they ARE wind-generated waves.  This is a big part of the
reason why they bear such an uncanny resemblance.

A project for a science class asks teams of students to build a windmill. The windmill is placed in front of a large floor fan.
shtirl [24]

The answer to your question would be team C, because the lifted the most weight in the shortest time. Team A might have been the fastest team but the also lifted the least amount of weight. And team B lifted a good amount of weight but they also did it the slowest.

A spring with a spring constant of 120 J/m2 is fixed to a wall, free to oscillate. On the other end, a ball with a mass of 1500
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

A. 4.47 m/s

Explanation:

As the ball oscillates, it mechanical energy, aka the total kinetic and elastics energy stays the same. For the ball to be at maximum speed, its elastic energy i 0 and vice versa. When the ball is at rest, its kinetic energy is 0 and its elastic energy is at maximum at 50 cm, or 0.5 m

1500 g = 1.5 kg

E_e = E_k

kx^2/2 = mv^2/2

120*0.5^2/2 = 1.5*v^2/2

15 = 0.75v^2

v^2 = 15 / 0.75 = 20

v = \sqrt{20} = 4.47 m/s

"Nuclear fission is the splitting of electrons in the outer shell of an atom." True or False?
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

False

Explanation:

Nuclear fission is the splitting of nucleus of an atom which results in the emission of high amount of energy.

<u>Example:</u>

Heavy atom (i.e. uranium) when bombarded with neutrons, its nucleus split into smaller lighter weight nuclei and release a huge amount of energy. (Nuclear fission also takes place without neutrons i.e. in the form of radioactive decay (the process in which an unstable nucleus of an atom releases energy in the form of radiation)).
