Answer:

8 x 10^-8 C on both the spheres.

Explanation:

Number of electrons added to A = 1 x 10^12

As the sphere A and B are identical to each other so the charge is shared equally.

Charge of one electron = 1.6 x 10^-19 C

Charge on A after wards

= number of electrons after wards x charge of one electron

qA = 0.5 x 10^12 x 1.6 x 10^-19 = 8 x 10^-8 C

Similarly, the charge on sphere B afterwards

= number of electrons after wards x charge of one electron

qB = 0.5 x 10^12 x 1.6 x 10^-19 = 8 x 10^-8 C

Ede4ka [16]

Answer: There are many possible elements, and they are all in the same vertical column as bromine.

Explanation:

In a periodic table, the elements are arranged according to the atomic number. The elements arranged in the same vertical column (known as groups) have same valence configuration and therefore have same chemical properties. Hence, there would be more possible elements having same chemical properties in the same vertical column (group) as Bromine.

A ball weighing 1 lb is attached to a string 2 feet long and is whirled in a vertical circle at a constant speed of 10 ft/sec.
fredd [130]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the ball, m = 1 lb

Length of the string, l = r = 2 ft

Speed of motion, v = 10 ft/s

(a) The net tension in the string when the ball is at the top of the circle is given by :

F=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}-mg

F=m(\dfrac{v^2}{r}-g)

F=1\ lb\times (\dfrac{(10\ ft/s)^2}{2}-1\ lb\times 32\ ft/s^2)

F = 18 N

(b) The net tension in the string when the ball is at the bottom of the circle is given by :

F=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}+mg

F=m(\dfrac{v^2}{r}+g)

F=1\ lb\times (\dfrac{(10\ ft/s)^2}{2}+1\ lb\times 32\ ft/s^2)

F = 82 N

(c) Let h is the height where the ball at certain time from the top. So,

T=mg(\dfrac{r-h}{r})+\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

T=\dfrac{m}{r}(g(r-h)+v^2)

Since, v^2=u^2-2gh

T=\dfrac{m}{r}(u^2-3gh+gr)

Hence, this is the required solution.

vodomira [7]

Answer:

A sample of 5.2 mg  decays to .65 mg or to 1/8 of its original amount.

1/8 = 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 or 3 half-lives.

3 * 30.07 = 90 yrs for 5.2 mg to decay to .65 mg

You can get these other numbers similarly:

5.2 / .0102 = 510  requires about 9  half-lives which is 30 * 9 = 270 yrs
