Apple hits the surface with speed 16.2 m/s

The angle made by the apple velocity with normal to the incline surface is given as 20 degree

now the component of velocity which is parallel to the surface and perpendicular to the surface is given as

v_{perpendicular} = v cos20

v_{parallel} = v sin20

so here we have

v_{parallel} = 16.2 sin20

v_{parallel} = 5.5 m/s

<em>so its velocity along the incline plane will be 5.5 m/s</em>

1) What is the highest atomic number element a red dwarf star can produce in its core? a. Carbon b. Oxygen c. Helium d. Iron
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

1) c. Helium

2) Iron

3) False.

Explanation:

1. Red dwarf is the smallest and the coolest star on the sequence. These are common stars in the milky way. Red dwarfs contains metals and the elements with higher atomic number. It is found that Helium is produced in red dwarf stars.

2. Iron is the highest atomic number element that is produced in cores of largest stars. The highest mass stars can make all elements up to iron, which is the heaviest element they can produce.

3. The end of stars life is dependent on the mass they are born with. It is not necessary that all red dwarf stars will become white dwarf stars faster than sun like star.

Assume that the particle has initial speed viviv_i. Find its final kinetic energy KfKfK_f in terms of viviv_i, MMM, FFF, and DDD
NeX [460]

Answer:

KE= 1/2mv²

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of a body is the energy possessed by virtue of the body in motion

Given the parameters

m which is the mass of the body

v which is the velocity of the body too

K.E = kinetic energy

The expression for the kinetic energy of a body is given as

KE= 1/2mv²

You would like to know whether silicon will float in mercury and you know that can determine this based on their densities. Unfo
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

Explanation:

To convert gram / centimeter³ to kg / m³

gram / centimeter³

= 10⁻³ kg / centimeter³

= 10⁻³  / (10⁻²)³ kg / m³

= 10⁻³ / 10⁻⁶ kg / m³

= 10⁻³⁺⁶ kg / m³

= 10³ kg / m³

So we shall have to multiply be 10³ with amount in gm / cm³ to convert it into kg/m³

2.33 gram / cm³

= 2.33 x 10³ kg / m³ .

A circular coil has a 10.0 cm radius and consists of 30.0 closely wound turns of wire. an externally produced magnetic field of
IrinaVladis [17]
Magnetic flux can be calculated by the product of the magnetic field and the area that is perpendicular to the field that it penetrates. It has units of Weber or Tesla-m^2. For the first question, when there is no current in the coil, the flux would be:

ΦB = BA
          A = πr^2
          A = π(.1 m)^2
          A = π/100 m^2   

 ΦB = 2.60x10^-3 T (π/100 m^2 ) ΦB = 8.17x10^-5 T-m^2 or Wb (This is only for one loop of the coil)

The inductance on the coil given the current flows in a certain direction can be calculated by the product of the total number of turns in the coil and the flux of one loop over the current passing through. We do as follows:

L = N (ΦB ) / I
L = 30 (8.17x10^-5 T-m^2) / 3.80 = 6.44x10^-4 mH

Water, of density 1000 kg/m3, is flowing in a drainage channel of rectangular cross-section. The width of the channel is 15 m, t
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Water flowing rate=  (300000kg/s) = (300000l/s)

Explanation:

First with the section of the channel, the depth of the water and the speed of the fluid we can determine the volume of fluid that circulates per second through the channel:

Volume per time= 15m × 8m × (2.5m/s)= 300 m³/s

With this volume of circulating fluid per second elapsed, we multiply it by the density of the water to determine the kilograms or liters of water that circulate through the channel per second elapsed:

Water flowing rate= (300m³/s) × (1000kg/m³)= (300000kg/s) = (300000l/s)

Taking into account that 1kg of water is approximately equal to 1 liter of water.
