1 answer:

7 0

It could increase homocysteine levels—and when these levels are raised, it could make the inner linings of the arteries to be damage and it usually occurs because of unwanted clotting increasing in a person’s body of which could cause factor or contributors making the increase, such as like smoking—this increases, the unwanted blood clots in the body which makes these levels increase, producing unwanted defects.

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

a.) F = 3515 N

b.) F = 140600 N

Explanation: given that the

Mass M = 74kg

Initial velocity U = 7.6 m/s

Time t = 0.16 s

Force F = change in momentum ÷ time

F = (74×7.6)/0.16

F = 3515 N

b.) If Logan had hit the concrete wall moving at the same speed, his momentum would have been reduced to zero in 0.0080 seconds

Change in momentum = 74×7.6 + 74×7.6

Change in momentum = 562.4 + 562.4 = 1124.8 kgm/s

F = 1124.8/0.0080 = 140600 N

The gold foil experiment led to the conclusion that each atom in the foil was composed mostly of empty space because most alpha

katovenus [111]

Answer:

(1) passed through the foil

Explanation:

Ernest Rutherford conducted an experiment using an alpha particle emitter projected towards a gold foil and the gold foil was surrounded by a fluorescent screen which glows upon being struck by an alpha particle.

When the experiment was conducted he found that most of the alpha particles went away without any deflection (due to the empty space) glowing the fluorescent screen right at the point of from where they were emitted.

While a few were deflected at reflex angle because they were directed towards the center of the nucleus having the net effective charge as positive.

And some were acutely deflected due to the field effect of the positive charge of the proton inside the nucleus. All these conclusions were made based upon the spot of glow on the fluorescent screen.

Answer:

a) v₃ = 19.54 km, b) 70.2º north-west

Explanation:

This is a vector exercise, the best way to solve it is finding the components of each vector and doing the addition

vector 1 moves 26 km northeast

let's use trigonometry to find its components

cos 45 = x₁ / V₁

sin 45 = y₁ / V₁

x₁ = v₁ cos 45

y₁ = v₁ sin 45

x₁ = 26 cos 45

y₁ = 26 sin 45

x₁ = 18.38 km

y₁ = 18.38 km

Vector 2 moves 45 km north

y₂ = 45 km

Unknown 3 vector

x3 =?

y3 =?

Vector Resulting 70 km north of the starting point

R_y = 70 km

we make the sum on each axis

X axis

Rₓ = x₁ + x₃

x₃ = Rₓ -x₁

x₃ = 0 - 18.38

x₃ = -18.38 km

Y Axis

R_y = y₁ + y₂ + y₃

y₃ = R_y - y₁ -y₂

y₃ = 70 -18.38 - 45

y₃ = 6.62 km

the vector of the third leg of the journey is

v₃ = (-18.38 i ^ +6.62 j^ ) km

let's use the Pythagorean theorem to find the length

v₃ = √ (18.38² + 6.62²)

v₃ = 19.54 km

to find the angle let's use trigonometry

tan θ = y₃ / x₃

θ = tan⁻¹ (y₃ / x₃)

θ = tan⁻¹ (6.62 / (- 18.38))

θ = -19.8º

with respect to the x axis, if we measure this angle from the positive side of the x axis it is

θ’= 180 -19.8

θ’= 160.19º

I mean the address is

θ’’ = 90-19.8

θ = 70.2º

70.2º north-west

A bag of potato chips contains 2.00 L of air when it is sealed at sea level at a pressure of 1.00 atm and a temperature of 20.0°

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

The volume at mountains is 2.766 L.

Explanation:

Given that,

Volume $V_{1} = 2.00\ L$

Pressure $P_{1}= 1.00\ atm$

Pressure $P_{2}= 70.0\ kPa$

Temperature $T_{1}= 20.0°C = 293\ K$

Temperature $T_{2}= 7.00°C = 280\ K$

We need to calculate the volume at mountains

Using gas law

$\dfrac{PV}{T}=\ Constant$

For both temperature,

$\dfrac{P_{1}V_{1}}{T_{1}}=\dfrac{P_{2}V_{2}}{T_{2}}$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{101.325\times2}{293}=\dfrac{70\times V_{2}}{280}$

$V_{2}=\dfrac{101.325\times2\times280}{293\times70}$

$V_{2}=2.766\ litre$

Hence, The volume at mountains is 2.766 L.

Assume the motions and currents mentioned are along the x axis and fields are in the y direction. (a) does an electric field exe

matrenka [14]

(a) does an electric field exert a force on a stationary charged object?
Yes. The force exerted by an electric field of intensity E on an object with charge q is
 $F=qE$
As we can see, it doesn't depend on the speed of the object, so this force acts also when the object is stationary.

(b) does a magnetic field do so?
No. In fact, the magnetic force exerted by a magnetic field of intensity B on an object with charge q and speed v is
 $F=qvB \sin \theta$
where $\theta$ is the angle between the direction of v and B.
As we can see, the value of the force F depends on the value of the speed v: if the object is stationary, then v=0, and so the force is zero as well.

(c) does an electric field exert a force on a moving charged object?
Yes, The intensity of the electric force is still
 $F=qE$
as stated in point (a), and since it does not depend on the speed of the charge, the electric force is still present.

(d) does a magnetic field do so?
Yes. As we said in point b, the magnetic force is
$F=qvB \sin \theta$
And now the object is moving with a certain speed v, so the magnetic force F this time is different from zero.

(e) does an electric field exert a force on a straight current-carrying wire?
Yes. A current in a wire consists of many charges traveling through the wire, and since the electric field always exerts a force on a charge, then the electric field exerts a force on the charges traveling through the wire.

(f) does a magnetic field do so?
Yes. The current in the wire consists of charges that are moving with a certain speed v, and we said that a magnetic field always exerts a force on a moving charge, so the magnetic field is exerting a magnetic force on the charges that are traveling through the wire.

(g) does an electric field exert a force on a beam of moving electrons?
Yes. Electrons have an electric charge, and we said that the force exerted by an electric field is
 $F=qE$
So, an electric field always exerts a force on an electric charge, therefore on an electron beam as well.

(h) does a magnetic field do so?
Yes, because the electrons in the beam are moving with a certain speed v, so the magnetic force
 $F=qvB \sin \theta$
is different from zero because v is different from zero.
