ivolga24 [154]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

MKS stands for Meter, Kilogram and second. In this system of unit mass is given in Kilogram, length in meter and time in second. ... CGS system stands for Centimeter- Gram- Second system. In CGS system, length is measured in centimeters mass is measured in grams and time is in seconds.

A proton is propelled at 4×106 m/s perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field. 1) If it experiences a magnetic force of 4.8×10−13
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

B = 0.75 T

Explanation:

As we know that the force on a moving charge in magnetic field is given by the formula

F = qvB

here we have

B = \frac{F}{qv}

here we know that

F = 4.8 \times 10^{-13} N

q = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} C

v = 4 \times 10^6 m/s

now from above equation we have

B = \frac{4.8 \times 10^{-13}}{(1.6 \times 10^{-19})(4 \times 10^6)}

B = 0.75 T

What is surface tension? How does surface tension result from intermolecular forces? How is it related to the strength of interm
Bond [772]

Answer:

Surface tension is the tendency of liquid surfaces to shrink into the minimum surface area possible.

Surface tension is caused by effects of intermolecular forces at liquid interface.

Surface tension increases as intermolecular forces increases.

Explanation:

  • Surface tension is the tendency of liquid surfaces to shrink into the minimum surface area possible. It can also be seen as the energy required to increase the surface of a liquid by a unit amount.
  • Surface tension is caused by the mediating effects of intermolecular forces at the liquid interfaces. Example in water, surface tension is caused by the mediating effect of the force between hydrogen and oxygen molecules. Liquids tends to reduce their surface area because of inward attarction of the liquid molecules.
  • Surface tension increases as intermolecular forces increases. Also, surface tension decreases as intermolecular forces decreases.

If the velocity is constant, describe the the slope of the graph on a position vs. time graph.
kvv77 [185]

If the velocity is constant, then the position/time graph has a constant slope, meaning a straight line. 

The slope may be any constant value ... positive, negative, or zero.

             -∞  <  slope  <  +∞

Two point sources produce waves of the same wavelength that are in phase. At a point midway between the sources, you would expec
Rasek [7]

Answer:

Constructive Interference.

Explanation:

Constructive Interference.

Definition:

Two waves meet in such a way their highs(Crests) combine to form a new waves whose magnitude is the sum of magnitude of combining waves.

Since two waves have same wavelength and are in phase so when they combine they well form a way which has the magnitude equal to the sum of the magnitude of both waves.

Reasons why it is Constructive Interference:Waves

  • Have Same wavelength
  • Are in phase (Can have phase difference of 2π
  • Have crests aligned with each other (Appear at same point)
