5. A nail contains trillions of electrons. Given that electrons repel from each other, why do they not then fly out of the nail?

diamong [38]

Answer:

Nails are made of iron. Iron consists of 26 protons and 26 electrons. protons are positively charged and electrons are negatively charged, so this force of attraction keeps the electrons together.

If electrons repel from each other, the positively charge protons and nucleus allow them to move in a definite orbit and prevent them flying out of the nail.

An ocean liner is cruising at 10 meters/second and is about to approach a stationary ferryboat. A parcel is released from the oc

Afina-wow [57]

The parcel will undergo projectile motion, which means that it will have motion in both the horizontal and vertical direction.

First, we determine how long the parcel will fall using:

s = ut + 1/2 at²

where s will be the height, u is the initial vertical velocity of the parcel (0), t is the time of fall and a is the acceleration due to gravity.

5.5 = (0)(t) + 1/2 (9.81)(t)²
t = 1.06 seconds

Now, we may use this time to determine the horizontal distance covered by the parcel by using:
distance = velocity * time

The horizontal velocity of the parcel will be equal to the horizontal velocity of the cruise liner.

Distance = 10 * 1.06
Distance = 10.6 meters

The boat should be 10.6 meters away horizontally from the point of release.

An experiment is conducted in which red light is diffracted through a single slit. Listed below are alterations made, one at a t

Xelga [282]

Answer:

B. The distance between the slits and the screen is halved.

C. The slit width is doubled.

D. A green, rather than red, light source is used.

E. The experiment is conducted in a water-filled tank.

Explanation:

As we know that the position of first minimum is given as

$a sin\theta = N\lambda$

so we have

$\theta = sin^{-1}(\fracN\lambda}{a})$

so width of minimum is given as

$w = L\times sin^{-1}(\fracN\lambda}{a})$

now if we need to decrease the angular position of minimum

1). so we can decrease the distance of screen from the slit

2). we can decrease the wavelength

3). We can increase the width of the slit

So correct answer will be

B. The distance between the slits and the screen is halved.

C. The slit width is doubled.

D. A green, rather than red, light source is used.

E. The experiment is conducted in a water-filled tank.

Finally, you are ready to answer the main question. Cheetahs, the fastest of the great cats, can reach 50.0 miles/hourmiles/hour

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

The acceleration of the cheetahs is 10.1 m/s²

Explanation:

Hi there!

The equation of velocity of an object moving along a straight line with constant acceleration is the following:

v = v0 + a · t

Where:

v = velocity of the object at time t.

v0 = initial velocity.

a = acceleration.

t = time

We know that at t = 2.22 s, v = 50.0 mi/h. The initial velocity, v0, is zero.

Let's convert mi/h into m/s:

50.0 mi/h · (1609.3 m / 1 mi) · (1 h / 3600 s) = 22.4 m/s

Then, using the equation:

v = v0 + a · t

22.4 m/s = 0 m/s + a · 2.22 s

Solving for a:

22.4 m/s / 2.22 s = a

a = 10.1 m/s²

The acceleration of the cheetahs is 10.1 m/s²

A uniform disk has a mass of 3.7 kg and a radius of 0.40 m. The disk is mounted on frictionless bearings and is used as a turnta

yuradex [85]

Answer:

1.25 kgm²/sec

Explanation:

Disk inertia, Jd =

Jd = 1/2 * 3.7 * 0.40² = 0.2960 kgm²

Disk angular speed =

ωd = 0.1047 * 30 = 3.1416 rad/sec

Hollow cylinder inertia =

Jc = 3.7 * 0.40² = 0.592 kgm²

Initial Kinetic Energy of the disk

Ekd = 1/2 * Jd * ωd²

Ekd = 0.148 * 9.87

Ekd = 1.4607 joule

Ekd = (Jc + 1/2*Jd) * ω²

Final angular speed =

ω² = Ekd/(Jc+1/2*Jd)

ω² = 1.4607/(0.592+0.148)

ω² = 1.4607/0.74

ω² = 1.974

ω = √1.974

ω = 1.405 rad/sec

Final angular momentum =

L = (Jd+Jc) * ω

L = 0.888 * 1.405

L = 1.25 kgm²/sec
