Answer:
Let's start by explaining that each atom in its natural state has a specific structure of its energy levels. Where the lowest energy level is called the ground state.
At this level, as long as no energy is communicated to the atom, the electron will remain in the ground state.
What does this mean?
When an atom is in its ground state, its electrons fill the lower energy orbitals completely before they begin to occupy higher energy orbitals.

Explanation:
The velocity of an object is equal to the distance divided by time. The equation is velocity = distance/time. If you wanted to calculate the TIME required for an object to travel a distance and you knew the velocity, you would A) multiply: velocity X distance. B) subtract: velocity – distance. C) divide: distance ÷ velocity D) add: velocity + distance
Answer: C) divide: distance ÷ velocity
Explanation:
The velocity [tex]V[/tex] equation is distance [tex]d[/tex] divided by time [tex]t[/tex]:
[tex]V=\frac{d}{t}[/tex]
If we isolate [tex]t[/tex] we will have:
[tex]t=\frac{d}{V}[/tex]
Hence, the correct option is C: distance divided by velocity.

The decay constant of a radioactive nuclide is 4.6 x 10^-3 s^-1. What is the half-life of the nuclide?
2.5 min
2.0 min
1.4 min
3.6 min
3.1 min
Answer:
2.5s
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Decay constant of the nuclide = 4.6 x 10⁻³s⁻¹
Unkown:
Half life =?
The half life is the time take for half of the radioactive nuclei to disintegrate. It is mathematically expressed as:
Half life = 0.693/λ
Where λ is the decay constant
Since we have been given λ we plug it into the equation:
Half life = 0.693/4.6 x 10⁻³
Half life = 0.693/0.0046
Half life =150. 65s
Now we convert to minutes because the options are in minutes:
60s = 1 minute
150.65s = 150.65/60 = 2.5s
The half life of the nuclide is 2.5s
Work is only being done when what happens to an object?
A) the object does not move
B) the object disappears without explanation
C) it moves in the same direction as the force
D) The object moves in the opposite direction of the force
Ik it's not A or B
Answer:
C) it moves in the same direction as the force
D) The object moves in the opposite direction of the force
Explanation:
As we know by work energy theorem that when work is done on the system of mass then
[tex]W_{net} = KE_f - KE_i[/tex]
now as per the definition of work done we know that
[tex]W = F.d[/tex]
[tex]W = Fdcos\theta[/tex]
so here we will say that when force is applied in the direction of the displacement of the object then it is always positive work and if work is applied in the opposite direction of the displacement of object then it is always negative work.
So here when force is applied then the point of application must move either in the direction of force or in the opposite direction of the force.
so correct answer will be
C) it moves in the same direction as the force
D) The object moves in the opposite direction of the force
In Figure 1, starting from the left, what magnetic poles are shown on the two bar magnets?
The answer is:North South North South.
Hope this helped :)
Answer: North, south, north, south.
Explanation:
In a usual magnetic field diagram, the vectors of the field "come" from the north pole and "enter" in the south pole.
In this case, we can see from where the field comes by the small arrows in the field lines, so in the figure the poles are:
North, South, North, South.
Where in the middle, the south pole of the left magnet is receiving the field that comes from the north pole in the other magnet, and the same for the outer poles.
Two charged objects separated by some distance attract each other. If the charges on both objects are doubled with no change in distance between them, what happens to the magnitude of the force between the objects?
a. the force between them quadruples
b. the between them doubles
c. the between them is halved
d. the force between them is quartered
e. the force between them is unchanged
Answer:
a. the force between them quadruples
Explanation:
The electrostatic force between two charges is given by
[tex]F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}[/tex]
where
k is the Coulomb's constant
q1 and q2 are the two charges
r is the separation between the two charges
In this problem, the charges on both objects are doubled, so
[tex]q_1' = 2q_1\\q_2' = 2q_2[/tex]
While the distance does not change, so the new force will be
[tex]F'= k \frac{(2q_1)(2q_2)}{r^2}=4 (k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2})=4 F[/tex]
so, the force will quadruple.
The amplitude of a system moving in simple harmonic motion is doubled. Determine by what factor the following change.
(a) the total energy
(b) the maximum speed
(c) the maximum acceleration
(d) the period
(a) The total energy increases by a factor 4
The total energy of a simple harmonic system is given by:
[tex]E=\frac{1}{2}kA^2[/tex]
where
k is the spring constant
A is the amplitude of the motion
In this part of the problem, the amplitude is doubled:
A' = 2A
So the new total energy is
[tex]E=\frac{1}{2}k(A')^2=\frac{1}{2}k(2A)^2=4(\frac{1}{2}kA^2)=4E[/tex]
So, the energy quadruples.
(b) The maximum speed increases by a factor 2
The maximum speed in a simple harmonic motion is given by
[tex]v=\omega A[/tex]
where
[tex]\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}[/tex] is the angular frequency, with k being the spring constant and m the mass
A is the amplitude
In this part of the problem, k and m do not change, so the angular frequency does not change. Instead, the amplitude is doubled:
A' = 2A
So the new maximum speed is
[tex]v'=\omega (A')=\omega (2A)=2 (\omega A)=2 v[/tex]
so, the maximum speed doubles.
(c) The maximum acceleration increases by a factor 2
The maximum acceleration in a simple harmonic motion is given by
[tex]a=\omega^2 A[/tex]
where
[tex]\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}[/tex] is the angular frequency, with k being the spring constant and m the mass
A is the amplitude
In this part of the problem, k and m do not change, so the angular frequency does not change. Instead, the amplitude is doubled:
A' = 2A
So the new maximum acceleration is
[tex]a'=\omega^2 (A')=\omega^2 (2A)=2 (\omega^2 A)=2 a[/tex]
so, the maximum acceleration doubles.
(d) The period does not change
The period in a simple harmonic motion is given by
[tex]T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}[/tex]
where m is the mass and k is the spring constant.
In this problem, the amplitude is doubled:
A' = 2A
However, we notice that the period does not depend on the amplitude, and since both m and k do not change, then the period will remain constant.
Final answer:
Doubling the amplitude in simple harmonic motion quadruples the total energy, doubles both the maximum speed and maximum acceleration, while the period remains unchanged. If the spring constant is doubled, the mass must be doubled to keep the same frequency.
Explanation:
Impact of Doubling the Amplitude on Simple Harmonic Motion
When the amplitude A of a system undergoing simple harmonic motion (SHM) is doubled, the following changes occur:
(a) Total energy of the system, which includes both kinetic and potential energy, is proportional to the square of the amplitude. Therefore, doubling the amplitude results in quadrupling the total energy (a factor of 4).
(b) Maximum speed (Vmax) of the system in SHM is directly proportional to the amplitude. As a result, doubling the amplitude doubles the maximum speed (a factor of 2).
(c) Maximum acceleration is also directly proportional to the amplitude. By doubling the amplitude, the maximum acceleration is also doubled (a factor of 2).
(d) The period of oscillation (T) is independent of the amplitude and will remain unchanged.
If the spring constant (k) of a simple harmonic oscillator is doubled, the mass (m) of the system needs to be doubled as well, in order to maintain the same frequency of motion, based on the formula for the frequency f = 1/(2π√(m/k)).
Two physics question need quick help
Answer:
2.14 kW, I₂ < I₁
Explanation:
The three resistors are in parallel. The net resistance is:
1/R = 1/R₁ + 1/R₂ + 1/R₃
1/R = 1/20 + 1/8 + 1/500
1/R = 0.177
R = 5.65
The power is:
P = IV
P = (V/R) V
P = V²/R
P = (110)² / 5.65
P = 2140 W
P = 2.14 kW
For two resistors in parallel, the one with the higher resistance has the smaller current. I₂ < I₁.
Calculate the number of moles of oxygen in a 12.5-l tank if the pressure is 25325 kpa and the temperature is 22°c
Answer:
= 129.06 moles
Explanation:
Using the ideal gas equation;
PV = nRT
Where; P is the pressure, V is the volumes, n is the number of moles, R is the ideal gas constant and T is the temperature.
In this case; V = 12.5 L, P = 25325 kpa or 249.94 atm, T = 22 + 273 = 295 K and R= 0.08206L atm/mol K
n = PV/RT
= (12.5 × 249.94)/(0.08206 × 295)
= 129.06 moles

many metamorphic rocks are found along the southwest border of mexico. what is a likely reason for this ?
The reason why there is an abundance of metamorphic rocks in the southwestern part of Mexico is the intense geologic activity in this area. In this area there is geologic activity triggered by the convergent plate boundary of the North American plate and the Cocos plate. The Cocos plate subducts bellow the North American plate, and that causes the surrounding crust to be exposed to high temperatures and pressures. Those high temperatures and pressure lead to metamorphism of the rocks that are deep into the crust. Also, the land is lifted up because of the subduction zone, so these metamorphic rocks start to emerge on the surface or very close to it because they have been pushed upwards.

Which physicist first identified the electron as an independent part of the atom?
Thomson conducted a series of experiments on cathode ray tubes, which led him to the discovery of electrons.
This is how on April 30th, 1897 Thomson announced the discovery of the electron (although at that time he called it a corpuscle)
This discovery was considered one of the milestones in science of the late nineteenth century, since it allowed to have a new conception of the structure of matter and its interaction with energy.
It should be noted that from this discovery, Thomson proposed a new model of the atom that although erroneous, remained valid for years and served as the basis for new postulates and research on the subject.
State two advantages of a lead-acid accumulator over a leclanche cell
Answer:
They are rechargeable
They have a longer life span
They are reusable
Explanation:
Lead acid accumulators and leclanche cells are types of electrochemical cells.
Leclanche cells are primary cells. Primary cells produce chemical reactions through which the electric current generated is irreversible.
Lead Acid Accumulators are secondary cells in which electric current generated is reversible.
This makes lead acid accumulators reusable, more durable and they have a longer life span.
The two advantages of a lead-acid accumulator over a Leclanché cell are its rechargeability and its higher current output, which makes it suitable for applications such as starting car engines.
Explanation:There are two main advantages of a lead-acid accumulator (also known as a lead-acid battery) over a Leclanché cell.
Rechargeability: One of the key advantages of a lead-acid accumulator is that it is rechargeable. This means that after the battery has been discharged (used), it can be recharged again with an external power source. This is in contrast to a Leclanché cell, which is typically not rechargeable. The ability to recharge a lead-acid battery prolongs its lifespan and makes it more cost-effective over the long term. Higher Current Output: Lead-acid accumulators can produce a high current output, which is necessary for starting automobile engines. Because of this, they are commonly utilized in vehicles. This is an advantage over the Leclanché cell, as it typically does not produce as high a current output.It is important to note that, despite these advantages, lead-acid batteries contain a significant amount of lead and a caustic liquid electrolyte, both of which must be handled and disposed of properly due to their environmental impact.

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. True or False
The statement 'For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction' is true as per Newton's third law. This law indicates that any force exerted on a body will lead to an equivalent counter force from that body. These forces apply to separate bodies and do not cancel each other out.
Explanation:The statement 'For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction' is True. This principle is known as Newton's third law. As per this law, any force enacted upon a body will cause that body to exert an equivalent force in the opposite direction - an 'action-reaction' pair. For instance, if you push a wall, the wall pushes back with an equivalent force. Importantly, these forces act on separate bodies and therefore do not cancel each other out.

In a transformer, if the primary coil contains more loops than the secondary coil, then it is a step-up transformer.A transformer converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.A transformer is used to increase or decrease a direct current voltage.A transformer is used to increase or decrease an alternating current voltage.In a transformer, if the secondary coil contains more loops than the primary coil, then it is a step-up transformer.In a transformer, the power input is less than the power output.
Answer:
In a transformer, if the secondary coil contains more loops than the primary coil, then it is a step-up transformer.
Explanation:
A transformer is made up of primary coil and secondary coil. when the number of loops in the secondary coil is less than the primary coil, the transformer is called step down transformer. Also if the number of loops in the secondary coil is more than the primary coil, then it is called a step-up transformer. In a step-up transformer the voltage output will be greater.Answer:
There are two correct options.
1. A transformer is used to increase or decrease an alternating current voltage.
2. In a transformer, if the secondary coil contains more loops than the primary coil, then it is a step-up transformer.
Explanation:
A transformer is a device which has two coils. One is primary coil and other is secondary coil.
Input is given to primary coil and output is taken out from secondary coil.
A transformer can increase or decrease the output voltage by setting the number of turns in primary and secondary coil.
If the number of turns in primary coil is less than the number of turns in secondary coil, then it is step up transformer. It increases the output voltage.
The relation between the number of turns and the voltage is given by
[tex]\frac{N_{s}}{N_{p}}=\frac{V_{s}}{V_{p}}=\frac{I_{p}}{I_{s}}[/tex]
Where, Np = number of turns in primary coil
Ns = number of turns in secondary coil
Vp = ac voltage across primary coil
Vs = ac voltage across secondary coil
Ip = ac current across primary coil
Is = ac current across secondary coil
A single circular loop with a radius of 35 cm is placed in a uniform external magnetic field with a strength of 0.50 T so that the plane of the coil is perpendicular to the field. The coil is pulled steadily out of the field in 15 s. Find the magnitude of the average induced emf during this interval. Show all work and include units of measure.
Answer:
0.0129 V
Explanation:
The average emf induced in the coil is given by Faraday-Newmann-Lenz:
[tex]\epsilon=-\frac{\Delta \Phi_B}{\Delta t}[/tex]
where
[tex]\Delta \Phi_B[/tex] is the variation of magnetic flux through the coil
[tex]\Delta t = 15 s[/tex] is the time interval
Here we have
B = 0.50 T is the strength of the magnetic field
The radius of the coil is
r = 35 cm = 0.35 m
So the area is
[tex]A=\pi r^2 = \pi (0.35 m)^2=0.385 m^2[/tex]
The initial flux through the coil is
[tex]\Phi_i = BA = (0.50 T)(0.385 m^2)=0.193 Wb[/tex]
while the final flux is zero, since the coil has been completely removed from the magnetic field region; so, the variation of magnetic flux is
[tex]\Delta \Phi = \Phi_f - \Phi_i = -0.193 Wb[/tex]
and so, the average emf induced is
[tex]\epsilon=-\frac{-0.193 Wb}{15 s}=0.0129 V[/tex]

An electromagnetic wave with an electric field that oscillates with a period of 8.43 ps is travelling in a vacuum. What is the wavelength of this electromagnetic wave?
"ps" stands for "pico-second". It means 10⁻¹² second.
The period of this wave is 8.43 x 10⁻¹² second.
In a vacuum, the speed of any electromagnetic wave is 3 x 10⁸ m/s.
Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency)
But Frequency = 1 / period
So Wavelength = (speed) x (period)
Wavelength = (3 x 10⁸ m/s) x (8.43 x 10⁻¹² sec)
Wavelength = 2.5 x 10⁻³ meter
Wavelength = 2.5 millimeters
You can find the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave with a given period by first calculating frequency using the formula f = 1/T. Then, use the universal wave equation c = λv, to find the wavelength, λ = c/f. Plugging all the values, we find the wavelength is about 2.53 meters.
Explanation:The subject of this question revolves around an
electromagnetic wave
with a given oscillation period and we need to find its wavelength. To solve this, we first have to convert the period into frequency, as the two are inverse to each other.
The frequency (f) can be calculated by taking the reciprocal of the period (T), so f = 1/T. Given that T = 8.43 ps (ps is picoseconds and 1 ps equals 10^-12 seconds), the frequency would therefore be f = 1/(8.43x10^-12 s) which equals approximately 1.19x10^11 Hz (Hz is the unit of frequency).
Now we use the universal wave equation, c = λv, where c is the speed of light (approximately 3 x 10^8 ms^-1 in a vacuum), v is the frequency, and λ is the wavelength we're trying to find. Solving for λ, we get λ = c/f. Substituting the values, we get λ = (3x10^8 m/s) / (1.19x10^11 Hz), which computes to approximately λ = 2.53m. Therefore, the wavelength of this electromagnetic wave is approximately 2.53 meters.
