Answer:

In the light bulb, the flow of charge through the filament heats it up and causes it to glow. In this way, the light bulb converts electrical energy to heat energy and light energy. Chemical energy in the batteries is transferred into electrical energy.

A hockey puck is sliding at a constant rate of 2m/s on a frictionless surface. How fast will the puck be moving after 10 sec

AnnyKZ [126]

2m/s because the hockey puck is traveling at a constant speed ( acceleration is 0 ). Unless something acts on the hockey puck it will travel 2 m/s forever.

An electron with speed 2.45 x 10^7 m/s is traveling parallel to a uniform electric field of magnitude 1.18 x 10^4N/C . How much

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

time will elapse before it return to its staring point is 23.6 ns

Explanation:

given data

speed u = 2.45 × $10^{7}$ m/s

uniform electric field E = 1.18 × $10^{4}$ N/C

to find out

How much time will elapse before it returns to its starting point

solution

we find acceleration first by electrostatic force that is

F = Eq

here

F = ma by newton law

ma = Eq

here m is mass , a is acceleration and E is uniform electric field and q is charge of electron

put here all value

9.11 × $10^{-31}$ kg ×a = 1.18 × $10^{4}$ × 1.602 × $10^{-19}$

a = 20.75 × $10^{14}$ m/s²

so acceleration is 20.75 × $10^{14}$ m/s²

and

time required by electron before come rest is

use equation of motion

v = u + at

here v is zero and u is speed given and t is time so put all value

2.45 × $10^{7}$ = 0 + 20.75 × $10^{14}$ (t)

t = 11.80 × $10^{-9}$ s

so time will elapse before it return to its staring point is

time = 2t

time = 2 ×11.80 × $10^{-9}$

time is 23.6 × $10^{-9}$ s

time will elapse before it return to its staring point is 23.6 ns

I just need a full answer here not only so I can answer the question, but also so that I can learn.

Xelga [282]

Answer: Number of valence electrons determine how fast or easy for an atom to gain stability. Either by gaining electrons or by losing electrons.

Group one and seven elements react fast because they only have one electron to gain or lose.

Explanation:

Number of valence electrons tell us the number of electrons an atom will gain or lose in order to attain stability in electron configuration.

All the elements in a particular group will have the same number of valence electrons as follows:

Group one - 1 valence electron

Group two - 2 valence electrons

Group three - 3 valence electrons

Group four - 4 valence electrons

Group five - 3 valence electrons

Group six - 2 valence electrons

Group seven - 1 valence electron

Group eight - 0 valence electron

Some elements are more reactive than the others because of the electron affinity, oxidation state and electronegativity of the atoms

For instance, elements in group 7 are more reactive than others because of their oxidation state and they have very high electronegativity.

Also, group one elements are more reactive because they only have one electron to loose.

How is the magnetic force on a particle moving in a magnetic field different from gravitational and electric forces.

harina [27]

Answer:

The magnetic force on a free moving charge depends on the velocity of the charge and the magnetic field, direction of the force is given by the right hand rule. While gravitational depends on the mass and distance of the moving particle and electric forces depends on the magnitude of the charge and distance of separation.

Explanation:

The magnetic force on a free moving charge depends on the velocity of the charge and the magnetic field and direction of the force is given by the right hand rule. While gravitational depends on the mass and distance of the moving particle and electric forces depends on the magnitude of the charge and distance of separation.

The magnetic force is given by the charge times the vector product of velocity and magnetic field. While gravitational force is given by the square of the particle mass divided by the square its distance of separation. Also electric forces is given by the square of the charge magnitude divided by the square its distance separation.

At its Ames Research Center, NASA uses its large "20-G" centrifuge to test the effects of very large accelerations ("hypergravit

Over [174]

Answer:

v=32.9m/s

Explanation:

The acceleration needed to mantain a circular motion of radius r and speed v is given by the equation $a=v^2/r$

This is the centripetal acceleration. The person will feel what is called a centrifugal acceleration, of the same value, because he is not in an inertial frame (thus subject to fictitious forces, product of inertia).

We want to know the speed of his head when it is subject to 12.5 times the value of the acceleration of gravity while moving on a 8.84m radius circle, so we must do:

$v=\sqrt{ar} = \sqrt{12.5gr}=\sqrt{(12.5)(9.8m/s)(8.84m)}=32.9m/s$
