Answer:

the potential energy of this body is 245 J.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the body, m = 250 g = 0.25 kg

height from which the body was dropped, h = 100 m

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

The potential energy of this body is calculated as;

P.E = mgh

substitute the given values and solve for the potential energy of this body;

P.E = 0.25 x 9.8 x 100

P.E = 245 J.

Therefore, the potential energy of this body is 245 J.

kirill115 [55]
Had to look for the options and here is my answer.
Given the situation that a poison is consumed and this prevented the acetylcholine release, the one that would most likely occur at a myoneural junction is that "sodium and potassium gates on the motor end plate will not open". Hope this helps.

Answer:

the magnetic field is leaving the sheet

Explanation:

The magnetic force is given by the expression

        F = q v x B

where bold letters indicate vectors, the modulus of this expression is

       F = q v B sin θ

the direction of the force is given by the right hand rule, for a positive charge

the thumb indicates the direction of the speed, in this case from right to left

the palm the direction of the force, in our case upwards

the fingers extended the direction of the magnetic field, this case after fixing the other two components it points out of the blade

In short the magnetic field is leaving the sheet

Which element in Figure 2 is a transition metal? Which is a noble gas?
quester [9]
<span>V is the transition metal. He is the noble gas. The periodic chart is arranged with metals on the left and non-metals on the right and the noble (non-reactive) gases form the rightmost column. The transition metals are the group of elements from columns 3 through 12. Although a strict definition of transition metals is those elements that have an incomplete d sub-shell, in which case column 12 is excluded since zinc, cadmium, and mercury do have complete d sub-shells. With that in mind, since the element V is the only element listed in the range of a transition metal, that's the answer. And since He is the only element listed in the noble gas column, that too is the answer.</span>

Calculate the energy released in joules when one mole of polonium-214 decays according to the following equation21484 Po --&gt;
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

ΔE = 8.77 × 10¹¹ J

Explanation:

given,

²¹⁴₈₄Po -----> ²¹⁰₈₂Pb + 42 He

Atomic masses: Pb-210 = 209.98284 amu

Po-214 = 213.99519 amu

He-4 = 4.00260 amu

1 kg = 6.022 × 10²⁶ amu;

NA = 6.022 × 10²³ mol⁻¹

c = 2.99792458 × 10⁸ m/s

energy of molecule using equation

ΔE = Δm c²

Δm is mass difference and c is speed of light

Δm = 209.98284 + 4.00260 - 213.99519

Δm = - 0.00975 amu

1 amu = 1.66 x 10⁻²⁷ kg

- 0.00975 amu = - 0.00975 x 1.66 x 10⁻²⁷ Kg

                         = -0.016185 x 10⁻²⁷ Kg

total mass = 6.022 × 10²³ x -0.016185 x 10⁻²⁷

                 = -0.097467 x 10⁻⁴ Kg

ΔE = -(0.097467 x 10⁻⁴) (3 x 10^8)²

ΔE = - 8.77 × 10¹¹

ΔE = 8.77 × 10¹¹ J

A loop lies in a magnetic field, with the field perpendicular to the plane of the loop. Which does not induce a current in the l
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

Option d

Explanation:

From Maxwell's law, we know that;

\Delta\times \vec{E} = \frac{\delta {B}}{\delta t}

where

E = Electric Field

B = Magnetic Field

Also from Lenz Law:

emf, e = - \frac{\delta \phi}{\delta t}

where

\phi = magnetic flux linkage

Now, in order for the current not to be induced in the loop, option a and c do not hold.

Since from the above equations, variation in both or any of the magnetic and electric fields will result in the induction of current as both are vector.

For the option b, if we rotate the loop about the diameter or increase the size or area of the loop, it will result in the change in its magnetic flux and current will be induced as is clear from the given equation:

\phi = \vec{B}.\vec{A}

Now, in case of option d, if we consider a uniform magnetic field, then there won't be any variation and hence no current will be induced while we slide the wire perpendicular to the loop.
