Once the atomic number of an atom is known, the number of electrons can be deduced depending on if the atom is an ion or a neutral one.

<h3>Atomic number</h3>

The atomic number of an atom is the number of protons in the nucleus of the atom.

For atoms that are neutral, that is, no net charges, the number of protons is always equal to the number of electrons. In other words, the positive charges always balance the negative charges in neutral atoms.

Thus, if the atomic number of a neutral atom is 6, for example, the proton number will also be 6. Since the proton must balance the electron, the number of electrons will also be 6.

Block A can slide relative to block B which, in turn, can slide on a perfectly smooth horizontal plane. If the initial velocity
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

the final velocity of the two blocks is v = \frac{mv_o}{m+M}

the distance that A slides relative to B is S = \frac{v_o^2M}{2 \mu g (M+m)}  

Explanation:

From the diagram below;

acceleration of A relative to B is : a = - ( \mu g  + \frac{ \mu mg}{M})

where

v = u + at

0 = v_o + ( - \mu g - \frac{\mu m g }{M})t

Making t the subject of the formula; we have:

t = \frac{v_o M}{(\mu g )(M+m)}

v^2 = u^2 +2 as\\\\0^2 = v_o^2 - 2 (\mu g ) (\frac{M+m}{M})S\\\\

S = \frac{v_o^2M}{2 \mu g (M+m)}  which implies the distance that A slides relative to B.

The final velocities of the two blocks can be determined as follows:

v = u + at

v = v_o - \mu g \frac{v_oM}{\mu g (M+m)}\\\\v = \frac{\mu g mv_o}{m+M}\\\\

v = \frac{mv_o}{m+M}

Thus, the final velocity of the two blocks is v = \frac{mv_o}{m+M}

A coil with an inductance of 2.3 H and a resistance of 14 Ω is suddenly connected to an ideal battery with ε = 100 V. At 0.13 s
klemol [59]

Given Information:

Resistance = R = 14 Ω

Inductance = L = 2.3 H

voltage = V = 100 V

time = t = 0.13 s

Required Information:

(a) energy is being stored in the magnetic field

(b) thermal energy is appearing in the resistance

(c) energy is being delivered by the battery?

Answer:

(a) energy is being stored in the magnetic field ≈ 219 watts

(b) thermal energy is appearing in the resistance ≈ 267 watts

(c) energy is being delivered by the battery ≈ 481 watts

Explanation:

The energy stored in the inductor is given by

U = \frac{1}{2} Li^{2}

The rate at which the energy is being stored in the inductor is given by

\frac{dU}{dt} = Li\frac{di}{dt} \: \: \: \: eq. 1

The current through the RL circuit is given by

i = \frac{V}{R} (1-e^{-\frac{t}{ \tau} })

Where τ is the the time constant and is given by

\tau = \frac{L}{R}\\ \tau = \frac{2.3}{14}\\ \tau = 0.16

i = \frac{110}{14} (1-e^{-\frac{t}{ 0.16} })\\i = 7.86(1-e^{-6.25t})\\\frac{di}{dt} = 49.125e^{-6.25t}

Therefore, eq. 1 becomes

\frac{dU}{dt} = (2.3)(7.86(1-e^{-6.25t}))(49.125e^{-6.25t})

At t = 0.13 seconds

\frac{dU}{dt} = (2.3) (4.37) (21.8)\\\frac{dU}{dt} = 219.11 \: watts

(b) thermal energy is appearing in the resistance

The thermal energy is given by

P = i^{2}R\\P = (7.86(1-e^{-6.25t}))^{2} \cdot 14\\P = (4.37)^{2}\cdot 14\\P = 267.35 \: watts

(c) energy is being delivered by the battery?

The energy delivered by battery is

P = Vi\\P = 110\cdot 4.37\\P = 481 \: watts

Can an object be accelerated while traveling at constant velocity? Why or why not?
AysviL [449]

Answer:

An object's acceleration is the rate its velocity (speed and direction) changes. Therefore, an object can accelerate even if its speed is constant - if its direction changes. If an object's velocity is constant, however, its acceleration will be zero.
