Atomic Nuclear's significance is that it proves the idea of quantum tunneling in the branch of quantum physics. The barriers that keep nuclear energy together are very high. Quantum mechanics sometimes tells us that particles can sometimes tunnel through the walls over they cannot climb and it happens at random intervals and unpredictably.

energy expenditure due to physical activity generally accounts for __________ of total energy expenditure.
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

Energy expenditure due to physical activity generally accounts for 20% of total energy expenditure.

Explanation:

The total amount of energy your body uses daily is usually divided as follows:

1. Your Basal Metabolic Rate at rest  (50-70%)

Basal Metabolic Rate is the number of calories required to keep your body      functioning at rest

2. Consumption by your daily physical activities (20%)

3. Energy to digest food. (10-20%)

This energy has to be deducted from the overall energy content of the food itself.

Then, the answer is:

Energy expenditure due to physical activity generally accounts for 20% of total energy expenditure.

Part A : A cylindrical water tank 10cm high and 520cm in diameter is filled with solution with a density of 0.75 g/cm^3
lisov135 [29]

Answer: 0.1066\ psi, 15.611\ kN

Explanation:

Given

the height of the tank is h=10\ cm

The diameter of the tank is d=520\ cm

Density of solution \rho=0.75\ g/cm^3\ or\ 750\ kg/m^3

(a) Water pressure at the bottom of the tank is

P=\rho gh\\P=750\times 9.8\times 0.1\\P=735\ Pa

1\ Pa=0.000145038\ psi

\Rightarrow P=735\ Pa\ or\ 0.1066\ psi

(b) \text{Average force on the bottom is the product of pressure and area of the base}

F_{avg}=735\times \pi \cdot (\frac{520}{200})^2\\\\F_{avg}=735\times 3.142\times 6.76\\F_{avg}=15,611.34\ N\ or\ 15.611\ kN

A ball is thrown eastward into the air from the origin (in the direction of the positive x-axis). The initial velocity is 50 i +
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

The ball lands 154.3 ft from the origin at an angle of 13.6° from the eastern direction toward the south.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The position vector of the ball is described by the following equation:

r = (x0 + v0x · t + 1/2 · ax · t², y0 + v0y · t + 1/2 · ay · t², z0 + v0z · t + 1/2 · g · t²)

Where:

r =  poisition vector of the ball at time t.

x0 = initial horizontal position.

v0x = initial horizontal velocity (eastward).

t = time.

ax = horizontal acceleration (eastward).

y0 = initial horizontal position.

v0y = initial horizontal velocity (southward).

ay = horizontal acceleration (southward)

z0 = initial vertical position.

v0z = initial vertical velocity.

g = acceleration due to gravity.

We have to find at which time the vertical component of the position vector is zero (the ball is on the ground) and then we can calculate the horizontal distance traveled by the ball at that time, using the equations of the horizontal components of the position vector.

Let´s place the origin of the system of reference at the throwing point so that x0 and y0 and z0 = 0.

y =  z0 + v0z · t + 1/2 · g · t²            (z0 = 0)

0 = 48 ft/s · t - 1/2 · 32 ft/s² · t²

0 = t (48 ft/s - 16 ft / s² · t)                 (t= 0, the origin point)

0 = 48 ft/s - 16 ft / s² · t

- 48 ft/s / -16 f/s² = t

t = 3.0 s

Now, we can calculate how much distance the ball traveled in that time.

First, let´s calculate the distance traveled in the eastward direction:

x = x0 + v0x · t + 1/2 · ax · t²              (x0 = 0, ax = 0 there is no eastward acceleration)

x = 50 ft/s · 3 s

x = 150 ft

And now let´s calculate the distance traveled in southward direction:

y = y0 + v0y · t + 1/2 · ay · t²   (y0 = 0 and v0y = 0, initially, the ball does not have a southward velocity).

y =  1/2 · ay · t²

y = 1/2 · (-8 ft/s²) · (3 s)²

y = -36 ft

Then, the final position vector will be:

r = (150 ft, -36 ft, 0)

The traveled distance is the magnitude of the position vector:

|r| = \sqrt{(150ft)^{2} + (-36ft)^{2}} = 154.3 ft

To calculate the angle, we have to use trigonometry (see attached figure):

cos angle  = adjacent side / hypotenuse

cos α = x/r

cos α = 150 ft / 154.3 ft

α = 13.6°

The ball lands 154.3 ft from the origin at an angle of 13.5° from the eastern direction toward the south.

PLEASSEE HELP MEEE WITHH THESEEE
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

Q1: (a)

1cm \:  = 10 {}^{ - 2}m

so

45 \times  {10}^{ - 2} m

Q2:

1km = 10 {}^{3} m \\ 6378km \times  {10}^{ 3}

this is the radius in meter

diameter = 2r

in this i don't know which choice is the right answer

Q3:

1gram = \:  {10}^{ - 3} kg

so

250 \times  {10}^{ - 3}  = 2.5 \times  {10}^{ - 1} kg

again there is no correct answer
