Answer:

s = 6.25 10⁻²² m

Explanation:

Polarizability is the separation of electric charges in a structure, in the case of the atom it is the result of the separation of positive charges in the nucleus and the electrons in their orbits, macroscopically it is approximated by

                p = q s

               s = p / q

let's calculate

              s = 1 10⁻⁴⁰ / 1.6 10⁻¹⁹

              s = 0.625 10⁻²¹ m

              s = 6.25 10⁻²² m

We see that the result is much smaller than the size of the atom, therefore this simplistic model cannot be taken to an atomic scale.

Calculate the period of a spring if it has a mass of 5 kg and a spring constant of 6 N/m
otez555 [7]

Answer: The period of a spring if it has a mass of 5 kg and a spring constant of 6 N/m is 5.73 sec.

Explanation:

Given: Mass = 5 kg

Spring constant = 6 N/m

Formula used to calculate period is as follows.

T = 2 \pi \sqrt\frac{m}{k}

where,

T = period

m = mass

k = spring constant

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

T = 2 \pi \sqrt\frac{m}{k}\\= 2 \times 3.14 \times \sqrt\frac{5}{6}\\= 5.73 s

Thus, we can conclude that the period of a spring if it has a mass of 5 kg and a spring constant of 6 N/m is 5.73 sec.

A metal wire of resistance R is cut into eight equal pieces that are then placed together side by side to form a new cable with
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

R / 64

Explanation:

Let he length of the wire is L and its resistance is R.

The resistance of the wire is directly proportional to the length of the wire. As the wire is cut into 8 equal pieces so the resistance of small wire is R/8.

Now they are connected in parallel.

The equivalent resistance is given by

\frac{1}{R_{eq}}=  8\times \frac{8}{R}

R_{eq}=\frac{R}{64}

Thus, the equivalent resistance of the new cable is R / 64.
