Neutral. A neutron doesn’t have a positive charge like a proton or a negative charge like an electron.

Korvikt [17]

Complete Question:

A hockey player swings her hockey stick and strikes a puck. According to Newton’s third law of motion, which of the following is a reaction to the stick pushing on the puck?

A. the puck pushing on the stick .

B. the stick pushing on the player .

C. the player pushing on the stick .

D. the puck pushing on the player.

Correct Option:

According to Newton’s third law of motion the puck pushing on the stick is a reaction to the stick pushing on the puck.

Option: A

Explanation:

As when the hockey exert force on the puck (which is a flat ball basically used in ice hockey) then this action by hockey will receive equal and opposite reaction by puck. Thus when the stick is pushing on the this flat ball, then puck also push the stick. This is understood by newton's third law pf motion, where action and reaction forces are subject of discussion, displaying their is pair of forces applied among the interacting objects. This form is observed more practically in life and very frequent.

The three different states of matter are liquid, solid, and gas. A solid is something you can hold in your fingers, while a liqu

nika2105 [10]

The answer is C. that liquids and gases both take the shape of their container.

Think of it this way, if you take an ice cube and put it in your glass, it will stay in its shape and stay that way until it melts. But if you put liquid or a gas into a glass, it will take the shape of the glass that it is put into.

Which forces tend to slow down an object

laila [671]

The answer is "friction and air resistance" gravity does some of the work by keeping the object from floating away, but friction and air resistance does the biggest part. Friction is how rough the ground it meaning on tile, dirt, grass, etc... that would slow down the object and air resistance is the gravity pushing on the object also making it stop.

Hope this helps!

A tree falls in a forest. How many years must pass before the 14C activity in 1.03 g of the tree's carbon drops to 1.02 decay pe

Illusion [34]

Answer:

t = 5.59x10⁴ y

Explanation:

To calculate the time for the ¹⁴C drops to 1.02 decays/h, we need to use the next equation:

$A_{t} = A_{0}\cdot e^{- \lambda t}$ (1)

where $A_{t}$ : is the number of decays with time, A₀: is the initial activity, λ: is the decay constant and t: is the time.

To find A₀ we can use the following equation:

$A_{0} = N_{0} \lambda$ (2)

where N₀: is the initial number of particles of ¹⁴C in the 1.03g of the trees carbon

From equation (2), the N₀ of the ¹⁴C in the trees carbon can be calculated as follows:

$N_{0} = \frac{m_{T} \cdot N_{A} \cdot abundance}{m_{^{12}C}}$

where $m_{T}$ : is the tree's carbon mass, $N_{A}$ : is the Avogadro's number and $m_{^{12}C}$ : is the ¹²C mass.

$N_{0} = \frac{1.03g \cdot 6.022\cdot 10^{23} \cdot 1.3\cdot 10^{-12}}{12} = 6.72 \cdot 10^{10} atoms ^{14}C$

Similarly, from equation (2) λ is:

$\lambda = \frac{Ln(2)}{t_{1/2}}$

where t 1/2: is the half-life of ¹⁴C= 5700 years

$\lambda = \frac{Ln(2)}{5700y} = 1.22 \cdot 10^{-4} y^{-1}$

So, the initial activity A₀ is:

$A_{0} = 6.72 \cdot 10^{10} \cdot 1.22 \cdot 10^{-4} = 8.20 \cdot 10^{6} decays/y$

Finally, we can calculate the time from equation (1):

$t = - \frac{Ln(A_{t}/A_{0})}{\lambda} = - \frac {Ln(\frac{1.02decays \cdot 24h \cdot 365d}{1h\cdot 1d \cdot 1y \cdot 8.20 \cdot 10^{6} decays/y})}{1.22 \cdot 10^{-4} y^{-1}} = 5.59 \cdot 10^{4} y$

I hope it helps you!

To practice Problem-Solving Strategy 15.1 Mechanical Waves. Waves on a string are described by the following general equation y(

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

0.0549 m

Explanation:

Given that

equation y(x,t)=Acos(kx−ωt)

speed v = 8.5 m/s

amplitude A = 5.5*10^−2 m

wavelength λ = 0.5 m

transverse displacement = ?

v = angular frequency / wave number

and

wave number = 2π/ λ

wave number = 2 * 3.142 / 0.5

wave number = 12.568

angular frequency = v k

angular frequency = 8.5 * 12.568

angular frequency = 106.828 rad/sec ~= 107 rad/sec

equation y(x,t)=Acos(kx−ωt)

y(x,t)= 5.5*10^−2 cos(12.568 x−107t)

when x =0 and and t = 0

maximum y(x,t)= 5.5*10^−2 cos(12.568 (0) − 107 (0))

maximum y(x,t)= 5.5*10^−2 m

and when x = x = 1.52 m and t = 0.150 s

y(x,t)= 5.5*10^−2 cos(12.568 (1.52) −107(0.150) )

y(x,t)= 5.5*10^−2 × (0.9986)

y(x,t) = 0.0549 m

so the transverse displacement is 0.0549 m
