Answer:

1 ) Electrons are less massive than than atomic nuclei.

Explanation:

A positively charged body tends to attract negatively charged particle and repel positively charged particle. Neutral body consists of atoms which contain both positively charged particles ( electrons ) and negatively charged particles ( protons ). Electrons are small and light in weight . Both electrons and protons experience equal and opposite force by an external charged body but shift in electron is more because of their being comparatively lighter. So the body gets polarized due to uneven distribution of charge. This results into body getting attracted through the process of induction.

A car traveling at speed v takes distance d to stop after the brakes are applied. What is the stopping distance if the car is in
Vikki [24]

49d

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

This case is about uniformly accelerated motion.

<u>Given:</u>

The initial speed was v takes distance d to stop after the brakes are applied.

<u>Question:</u>

What is the stopping distance if the car is initially traveling at speed 7.0v?

Assume that the acceleration due to the braking is the same in both cases. Express your answer using two significant figures.

<u>The Process:</u>

The list of variables to be considered is as follows.

  • \boxed{u \ or \ v_i = initial \ velocity}
  • \boxed{u \ or \ v_t \ or \ v_i = terminal \ or \ final \ velocity}
  • \boxed{a = acceleration \ (constant)}
  • \boxed{d = distance \ travelled}

The formula we follow for this problem are as follows:

\boxed{ \ v^2 = u^2 + 2ad \ }

  • a = acceleration (in m/s²)
  • u = initial velocity  
  • v = final velocity
  • d = distance travelled

Step-1

We substitute v as the initial speed, distance of d, and zero for final speed into the formula.

\boxed{ \ 0 = v^2 + 2ad \ }

\boxed{ \ v^2 = -2ad \ }

Both sides are divided by -2d, we get \boxed{ \ a = \Big( -\frac{v^2}{2d} \Big) \ . . . \ (Equation-1) \ }

Step-2

We substitute 7.0v as the initial speed, zero for final speed, and Equation-1 into the formula.

\boxed{ \ 0 = (7.0v)^2 + 2 \Big( -\frac{v^2}{2d} \Big)d' \ }

Here d' is the stopping distance that we want to look for.

\boxed{ \ 2 \Big( \frac{v^2}{2d} \Big)d' = (7.0v)^2 \ }

We crossed out 2 in above and below.

\boxed{ \ \Big( \frac{v^2}{d} \Big)d' = 49.0v^2 \ }

We multiply both sides by d.

\boxed{ \ v^2 d' = 49.0v^2 d \ }

We crossed out v^2 on both sides.

\boxed{\boxed{ \ d' = 49.0d \ }}

Hence, by using two significant figures, the stopping distance if the car is initially traveling at speed 7.0v is 49d.

There is an electromagnetic wave traveling in the -z direction in a standard right-handed coordinate system. What is the directi
wlad13 [49]

Answer: The direction of the electric field, E→, is pointed in the +y direction.

Explanation:

One can use the right hand rule to illustrate the direction of travel of an electromagnetic and thereby get the directions of the electric field, magnetic field and direction of travel of the wave.

The right hand rule states that the direction of the thumb indicate the direction of travel of the electromagnetic wave (<em>in this case the -z direction</em>) and the curling of the fingers point in the direction of the magnetic field  B→ (<em>in this case the +x direction</em>), therefore, the electric field direction E→ is in the direction of the fingers which would be pointed towards the +y direction.

Dane is standing on the moon holding an 8 kilogram brick 2 metres above the ground. How much energy is in the brick's gravitatio
Nadya [2.5K]

The gravitational potential energy of the brick is 25.6 J

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its position in a gravitational field.

Near the surface of a planet, the gravitational potential energy is given by

PE=mgh

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the strength of the gravitational field

h is the height of the object relative to the ground

For the brick in this problem, we have:

m = 8 kg is its mass

g = 1.6 N/kg is the strenght of the gravitational field on the moon

h = 2 m is the height above the ground

Substituting, we find:

PE=(8)(1.6)(2)=25.6 J

Which one of the following statements concerning kinetic energy is true? a The kinetic energy of an object always has a positive
hodyreva [135]

a The kinetic energy of an object always has a positive value.

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by an object due to its motion, and it can be calculated as

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its speed

Let's now analyze each statement:

a The kinetic energy of an object always has a positive value. --> TRUE. In fact, the mass of the object is always positive, and the term v^2 is always positive as well, so the kinetic energy is always positive.

b The kinetic energy of an object is directly proportional to its speed. --> FALSE. Looking at the formula, we see that the kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the speed, K\propto v^2.

c The kinetic energy of an object is expressed in watts. --> FALSE. Watts is the units for measuring power, while the kinetic energy is measured in Joules, the units for the energy.

d The kinetic energy of an object is a quantitative measure of its inertia. --> FALSE. The inertia of an object depends only on its mass, not on its speed.

e The kinetic energy of an object is always equal to the object’s potential energy. --> FALSE. The potential energy depends on the altitude from the ground, not from the speed, so the two energies can be different.
