Answer: 0.091 m

Explanation:

r = 1/B * √(2mV/e), where

r = radius of their circular path

B = magnitude of magnetic field = 1.29 T

m = mass of Uranium -238 ion = 238 * amu = 238 * 1.6*10^-27 kg

V = potential difference = 2.9 kV

e = charge of the Uranium -238 ion = 1.6*10^-19 C

r = 1/1.29 * √[(2 * 238 * 1.6*10^-27 * 2900) / 1.6*10^-19]

r = 1/1.29 * √(2.21*10^-21 / 1.6*10^-19)

r = 1/1.29 * √0.0138

r = 1/1.29 * 0.117

r = 0.091 m

Therefore, the radius of their circular path is 0.091 m

The mercalli scale is a scale from ________.
Mashcka [7]
<h2>Answer: 1 to 12. </h2>

<u>The Mercalli seismological scale is a scale of 12 degrees</u>, where 1 is very weak and 12 catastrophic.

This scale owes its name to the Italian physicist Giuseppe Mercalli and was developed to assess the intensity of earthquakes through the effects and damages caused to different structures.

This means the <u>Mercalli scale measures how strong a earthquake has been by </u><u>its consequences and not by its magnitude</u><u>, therefore it is based on </u><u>empirical observations.</u>

Answer:

 f = 7.9487 10¹³ Hz

Explanation:

The photoelectric effect was correctly explained by Einstein assuming that the radiation is composed of photons, which behave like particles.

           hf = K + Ф

It indicates the frequency and the kinetic energy, let's look for the work function

          Ф = hf - K

let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

          K = 0.332 eV (1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J / 1 eV) = 0.5312 10⁻⁻¹⁹ J

let's calculate

          Ф = 6.63 10⁻⁻³⁴  6.64 10¹¹ - 0.5312 10⁻¹⁹

          Ф = 4.40 10⁻²² - 0.5312 10⁻¹⁹

          Ф = 5.27 10⁻²⁰ J

for the minimum frequency that produces photoelectrons, the kinetic energy is zero

           hf = Ф  

           f = Ф / h

           f = 5.27 10⁻²⁰ / 6.63 10⁻³⁴

           f = 7.9487 10¹³ Hz

Science please helppp
Daniel [21]

The red box must way more. Gravitational potential energy is the product of a an objects mass times the acceleration due to gravity (which is constant on earth) times its height. Since the objects are on the same shelf they are at the same height, and since gravitational acceleration is constant as long as we stay on planet earth, then the mass is the only possible thing that could have changed. This means that the red box must weigh more than the blue box.
