False because gravitational potential energy has to do with gravity

Gravitational potential energy is caused when an object is resting above the ground. It is released when the object is falling, not by burning substances.

padilas [110]

Answer:

 a)    λ = 189.43 10⁻⁹ m  b)    λ = 269.19 10⁻⁹ m

Explanation:

The diffraction network is described by the expression

      d sin θ= m λ

Where m corresponds to the diffraction order

Let's use trigonometry to find the breast

        tan θ = y / L

The diffraction spectrum is measured at very small angles, therefore

      tan θ = sin θ / cos θ = sin θ

We replace

      d y / L = m λ

Let's place in the first order m = 1

Let's look for the separation of the lines (d)

     d = λ  L / y

     d = 501 10⁻⁹ 9.95 10⁻² / 15 10⁻²

     d = 332.33 10⁻⁹ m

Now we can look for the wavelength of the other line

     λ  = d y / L

    λ  = 332.33 10⁻⁹ 8.55 10⁻²/15 10⁻²

    λ = 189.43 10⁻⁹ m

Part B

The compound wavelength B

      λ  = 332.33 10⁻⁹ 12.15 10⁻² / 15 10⁻²

      λ = 269.19 10⁻⁹ m

Likurg_2 [28]
First off, you can cross out alternating current because a 9V battery doesn't give out AC, it gives out solely DC. If the battery is connected to each battery individually, then they are in parallel. So, according to Kirchhoff's Voltage Law, in parallel, V total = V1 = V2= V3..
So I'd say B) !

Two very large parallel metal plates, separated by 0.20 m, are connected across a 12-V source of potential. An electron is relea
Semmy [17]

Answer:

{\rm K} = 2.4\times 10^{-19}~J

Explanation:

The electric field inside a parallel plate capacitor is

E = \frac{Q}{2\epsilon_0 A}

where A is the area of one of the plates, and Q is the charge on the capacitor.

The electric force on the electron is

F = qE = \frac{qQ}{2\epsilon_0 A}

where q is the charge of the electron.

By definition the capacitance of the capacitor is given by

C = \epsilon_0\frac{A}{d} = \frac{Q}{V}\\\frac{Q}{\epsilon_0 A} = \frac{V}{d} = \frac{12}{0.20} = 60

Plugging this identity into the force equation above gives

F = \frac{qQ}{2\epsilon_0 A} = \frac{q}{2}(\frac{Q}{\epsilon_0 A}) = \frac{q}{2}60 = 30q

The work done by this force is equal to change in kinetic energy.

W = Fx = (30q)(0.05) = 1.5q = K

The charge of the electron is 1.6 \times 10^{-19}

Therefore, the kinetic energy is 2.4\times 10^{-19}

A flat, wide cloud floats horizontally a few kilometers above the surface of Earth. Its lower surface carries a uniform surface
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

\frac{kQ}{r^2} r^

Explanation:

Electric field strength= Force/unit charge

E= (kQq/r²)/q ₓ r

where r is the unit vector in the direction of unit charge

E= \frac{kQ}{r^2} r^
