Define upthrust simply (don't copy)

1 answer:

3 0

Upthrust is the force that is pushing you up. Kinda to stop you from sinking right into the Earth. Upthrust is simply any force that is causing something to be pushed upwards. Kinda like the opposite of gravity, which is pulling you down =]

Hope this helps ❤️

Answer:

decreases, increases, minimum (zero)

Explanation:

Kinetic energy of a body is directly proportional to the square of velocity of the body and the potential energy is directly proportional to the height of the body at which it is placed.

The formula for the kinetic energy is

K = 1/2 m v^2

The formula for the potential energy is

U = m g h

As the body goes up its kinetic energy decreases as the velocity of the object decreases.

As the body goes up the potential energy increases as the height increases.

At the top most point, the velocity of teh object is zero, so the kinetic energy at the top is zero.

Which of these instruments is listed with the wrong type of lens that it uses?

VikaD [51]

The wrong type of lens-Microscope, concave

Explanation:

A microscope Basically uses two convex lenses to magnify an object, or specimen.

There are 2 lenses in a microscope

Object Lens:The lens that is closer to the object
Eyepiece:The lens that is closer to the eye

Both the object lens and the eyepiece, is a convex lens.

Answer:

a) P_α = exp (-ΔE / kT), b) P_β = 0.145 , d) ΔE = 309.7 meV

Explanation:

The expression for the number of molecules or particles in a given state in Boltzmann's expression

n = n₀ exp (-ΔE / kT)

Where k is the Bolztmann constant and T the absolute temperature

The probability is defined as the number of molecules in a given state over the total number of particles

P = n / n₀ = exp (- ΔE / kT)

Let's apply this expression to our case

a) P_α = n_α / n₀ = exp (-ΔE / kT)

b) the Boltzmann constant

k = 1,381 10⁻²³ J / K (1 eV / 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J) = 8.63 10⁻⁵ eV / K

kT = 8.63 105 300 = 2,589 10⁻² eV

P_β = exp (- 50 10⁻³ /2.589 10⁻² = exp (-1.931)

P_β = 0.145

c) If the temperature approaches absolute zero, the so-called is very high, so there is no energy to reach the excited state, therefore or all the molecules go to the alpha state

d) For molecules to spend ¼ of the time in this beta there must be ¼ of molecules in this state since the decay is constant.

P_β = ¼ = 0.25

P_β = exp (- ΔE / kT)

ΔE = -kT ln P_β

ΔE = - 2,589 10⁻² ln 0.25

ΔE = 0.3097 eV

ΔE = 309.7 meV
