When a roller coaster gets to the bottom of a descent, describe the energy transfers and changes to energy stores that happen if

a) the brakes are applied to stop it
b) it goes up and over a second hill.​

Answer:

its B

Explanation:

It's B & A at the same time because A. a roller coaster uses brakes to slow down and stop. B is the most reasonable answer. Because all roller coasters go up and over a second time over the hill, but they also slow down. But go with B.

The average distance between collisions for atoms in a real gas is known as the mean free path (see pp. 298-9 in McKay). Which o
dusya [7]

Answer:

300 nm

Explanation:

R = Gas constant = 8.314 J/molK

r = Atomic radii = 1\times 10^{-10}\ m

d = Atomic diameter = 2r=2\times 10^{-10}\ m

At STP

T = Temperature = 273.15 K

P = Pressure = 100 kPa

N_A = Avogadro's number = 6.022\times 10^{23}

The mean free path is given by

\lambda=\frac{RT}{\sqrt2d^2N_AP}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\frac{8.314\times 273.15}{\sqrt2 \pi \times (2\times 10^{-10})^2\times 6.022\times 10^{23}\times 100000}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=2.12165\times 10^{-7}\ m=212.165\times 10^{-9}\ m=212.165\ nm

The answer that best represents the mean free path for gas molecules is 300 nm

Two balloons having the same charge of 1.2 × 10-6 coulombs each are kept 5.0 × 10-1 meters apart. What is the magnitude of the r
ra1l [238]
Steps: 1)Data: q1=charge of first balloon=1.2 × 10^-6 q2=charge of second balloon=1.2 × 10^-6 Condition:q1=q2 then for convenience,we say q instead of q1 and q2. Radius=r=5*10^-1 Radius is the distance between balloons! Magnitude of repulsive force=F=? 2)Solution: F=kq1q2/r^2 As q1=q2=q So F=kqq/r^2 =kq^2/r^2 Putting values: F=((9*10^9)(1.2 × 10^-6)^2)/(5*10^-1)^2 Using calculator: F=0.05184 N

17. In which layer does mantle convection occur?
Anarel [89]

Answer:

D. Asthenosphere

Explanation:

The asthenosphere is relatively plastic part of the mantle which underlies the brittle lithosphere. In the asthenosphere, it is generally believed that the rocks are in ductile state and easily moves. It is the site of convection within the earth. In mantle convection, hot and light materials rises and keeps moving into upper crustal levels till they solidify. Here also, cold and denser materials sinks deeper till they turn to melt. This differences in temperature and density sets up a convective cell within the mantle. Several convective cells are in the mantle.

natta225 [31]

The total thermal power generated by this plutonium source is determined as 5.65 J/s.

<h3>Total thermal power generated</h3>

The total thermal power generated by this plutonium source is determined as follows;

ΔP = Eλ

where;

  • E is the energy of the particles = 5.6 mev
  • λ is the activity of the plutonium, which should be = 6.3 x 10¹⁵ s⁻¹

ΔP = (5.6 mev) x (6.3 x 10¹⁵ s⁻¹)

ΔP = (5.6 x 10³ x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J) x (6.3 x 10¹⁵ s⁻¹)

ΔP = 5.65 J/s
