Hi Phoebe, I'm Sasha and I'm also 12 years old and here's the answer your looking for

Answer:

Particles are, by their very nature, attracted to particles with an opposite charge, and they repel other similarly charged particles. This prevents electrons from ever coming in direct contact (in an atomic sense and literal sense). Their wave packets, on the other hand, can overlap, but never touch.

An infinite line of charge with linear density λ1 = 6 μC/m is positioned along the axis of a thick insulating shell of inner rad
Anna11 [10]

Answer: λ2= 2.34 * 10^-6 C/m

Explanation: In order to calculate the value of the  linear charge density of the insulating shell we have to multiply ρ* Volume of the hollow cylinder, so

Volume of cylinder:2*π*b*L *(b-a)  where (b-a) is the thickness, then

λ2=Q/L = 634 *10^-6 C/m^3* 2*π*0.042 m*(0.042-0.26)== 2.34 μ C/m

If the amplitude of a simple harmonic oscillator is doubled, by what factor does the total energy increase?
dybincka [34]

Answer:

c)by a factor of four

Explanation:

The total energy of a simple harmonic oscillator is given by

E=\frac{1}{2}kA^2

where

k is the spring constant of the oscillator

A is the amplitude of the motion

In this problem, the amplitude of the oscillator is doubled, so

A' = 2A

Therefore, the new total energy is

E'=\frac{1}{2}k(2A)^2=4(\frac{1}{2}kA^2)=4E

So, the total energy increases by a factor 4.

The mass of a radioactive substance follows a continuous exponential decay model, with a decay rate parameter of 1% per day. A s
Bumek [7]

Answer:

2,38kg

Explanation:

Mass in function of time can be found by the formula: m_{(t)} =m_{0} e^{-kt}, where m_{0} is the initial mass, t is the time and k is a constant.

Given that a sample decay 1% per day, that means that after first day you have 99% of mass.

m_{(1)} =m_{0} e^{-k(1)}, but m_{(1)}=\frac{99m_{0} }{100}, so we have \frac{99m_{0} }{100}=m_{0}e^{-k}, then k=-ln(\frac{99}{100})=0.01

Now using k found we must to find m_{(5)}.

m_{(5)}=m_{0}e^{-(0.01)5}=2.5kge^{-0.05} =2.5x0.951=2.38kg
