Answer:

Horizontal and pointing south.

Explanation:

The Poynting vector points in the direction of propagation (if the wave is a sinusoidal linearly polarized plane wave of fixed frequency, as it is in our case), and it's given by (all vectors):

S=E\times H

where H points in the same direction as B, the magnetic field. This means that E must point south, because the vectorial product of a vector pointing south by a vector pointing up gives a vector pointing west. This can be deduced by the right-hand rule: if our index finger is E and our middle finger is H, then the thumb is S.

An angry physics student releases a wrecking ball as shown. The wrecking ball is just about to hit the building at the final tim
daser333 [38]

Answer:

the force between the building and the ball is non-conservative (friction-type force)

Explanation

Explanation:For this exercise the student must create an impulse to move the ball towards the building, in this part he performs positive work since the applied force and the displacement are in the same direction.

When the ball moves it has a kinetic energy and if its height increases or decreases its potential energy also changes, but the sum of being must be equal to the initial work.

When the ball arrives and collides with the building, non-conservative forces, of various kinds; rubbing, breaking, etc. It transforms this energy into a part of heat and another in mechanical energy that the building must absorb, let us destroy its wall

Consequently, the force between the building and the ball is non-conservative (friction-type force

Use the mass spectrum of europium to determine the atomic mass of europium. where the peak representing eu-151 has an exact mass
slavikrds [6]

Answer: The atomic mass of a Europium atom is 151.96445 amu.

From the given information:

Percent intensity is 91.61% of Europium atom of molecular weight 150.91986 amu.

Percent intensity is 100.00% of Europium atom of molecular weight 152.92138 amu.

Abundance of Eu-151 atom:

X_{Eu-151}=\frac{0.9161}{0.9161+1.000}=0.4781

Abundance of Eu-153 atom:

X_{Eu-153}=\frac{1.000}{0.9161+1.000}=0.5219

Atomic mass of Europium atom:

A=(X_{Eu-151}\times150.91986+X_{Eu-153}\times152.92138)amu\\A=(0.4781\times150.91986+0.5219\times152.92138)amu=151.96445 amu

Therefore, the atomic mass of a Europium atom is 151.96445 amu.

An object weighs 60.0 kg on the surface of the earth. How much does it weigh 4R from the surface? (5R from the center)
Alecsey [184]
"60 kg" is not a weight.  It's a mass, and it's always the same
no matter where the object goes.

The weight of the object is   

                                 (mass) x (gravity in the place where the object is) .

On the surface of the Earth,

                   Weight = (60 kg) x (9.8 m/s²)

                                =      588 Newtons.

Now, the force of gravity varies as the inverse of the square of the distance from the center of the Earth.
On the surface, the distance from the center of the Earth is 1R.
So if you move out to  5R  from the center, the gravity out there is

                    (1R/5R)²  =  (1/5)²  =  1/25  =  0.04 of its value on the surface.

The object's weight would also be 0.04 of its weight on the surface.

                 (0.04) x (588 Newtons)  =  23.52 Newtons.

Again, the object's mass is still 60 kg out there.
___________________________________________

If you have a textbook, or handout material, or a lesson DVD,
or a teacher, or an on-line unit, that says the object "weighs"
60 kilograms, then you should be raising a holy stink. 
You are being planted with sloppy, inaccurate, misleading
information, and it's going to be YOUR problem to UN-learn it later.
They owe you better material.
