Answer:

Explanation:

0.020 has two significant figures.

The 2 is significant because all non-zero numbers are signficant.

The second 0 is significant because all zeros at the end of a decimal are significant.

The other zeros are not significant, because they are just place holders.

5. What is the velocity of a Nolan Catholic football player if he runs 200.0 m in 24.0 s?

Degger [83]

Answer:

$\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed {\sf{8.33 \: m \:/s \: }}}}}$

Explanation:

Distance travelled = 200 metre

Time taken = 24 second

Velocity = ?

Finding the velocity 

$\boxed{ \sf{velocity = \frac{distance \: travelled \: }{time \: taken}}}$

$\dashrightarrow{ \sf{velocity = \frac{200 \: m}{24 \: s} }}$

$\dashrightarrow{ \sf{velocity = 8.33 \: m/s}}$

Hope I helped!

Best regards!

Assignment: Can you identify various forces and instances in which electrostatic and magnetic forces occur

serg [7]

Answer:

Magnetic force, attraction or repulsion that arises between electrically charged particles because of their motion. It is the basic force responsible for such effects as the action of electric motors and the attraction of magnets for iron. Electric forces exist among stationary electric charges; both electric and magnetic forces exist among moving electric charges. The magnetic force between two moving charges may be described as the effect exerted upon either charge by a magnetic field created by the other.

As the proton approaches the uranium nucleus, the repulsive force slows down the proton until it comes momentarily to rest, afte

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

$r^2 = \frac{ 2 k \ Ze^2}{ 2m}$

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use the principle of conservation of energy

starting point. The proton very far from the nucleus

Em₀ = K = ½ m v²

final point. The point where the proton is stopped (v = 0)

Em_f = U = q V

where the potential is

V = k Ze / r²

Let us consider that all the charge of the nucleus is in the center, therefore r is the distance from this point to the proton that is approaching

Energy is conserved

Em₀ = Em_f

½ m v² = e ( $k \frac{Ze}{r^2}$ )

$r^2 = \frac{ 2 k \ Ze^2}{ 2m}$

with this expression we can find the closest approach distance (r)
