Answer:
Alpha particles are Helium nuclei consisting of 2 protons and two neutrons (mass number 4, atomic number 2, no electrons and so carry a 2+ charge).
Explanation:
In a physics lab, students take a long piece of string and cut it into two unequal pieces. One piece is used to suspend a large weight. The second piece is tied to the bottom of the weight as seen in the diagram below. Student 1 predicts that the upper string will always break first since it has to support the weight and the applied force, while Student 2 disagrees and predicts that the shorter piece of string will always break first if you pull slowly but with enough force to exceed the strength of the string.
(a) Which aspect(s) of Student 1’s reasoning, if any, are correct? Explain your answer.
(b) Which aspect(s) of Student 2’s reasoning, if any, are correct? Explain your answer.
(c) Which aspect(s) of both Student 1’s and 2’s reasoning, if any, are incorrect? Explain your answer.
(d) The experiment is performed and both students are surprised to learn that whether
the upper or lower string breaks first depends on whether you pull slowly or with a
sudden pull. Resolve the two lines of reasoning of Student 1 and Student 2 by
explaining the results of the experiment in a clear, concise paragraph.
Answer:
(a) The aspect of the upper string supporting the weight and the applied force
Student 1 is correct because the upper string is the source of support of the large weight and the force applied to the short string reacts at the support of the long string
(b) The aspect of Student's (2) reasoning that is correct is that the shorter piece of string will always break first, however, the statement is only true for sudden pull due to the increased force experienced by the shorter string from a more rapid change in momentum
(c) The aspect of Student 1's statement that is incorrect is the that the upper string will always break first
The aspect of Student 2's statement that is incorrect is the that the shorter piece of string will always break first
(d) A string will break when subject to a force equivalent to its breaking force. The force experienced by the string increases as the rate of pull (suddenness) increases and the suddenness increases inversely with the length of the string, as such the shorter lower string will break first from a sudden pull before the force of the pull is completely transmitted to the upper string. Whereby the lower string is slowly pulled, the force is evenly transmitted to the upper string which is then taking up the load of the weight and the applied force together and is likely to break first

Length of table is 1.0m,1.00m and 1.000m.Which one is more accurate?
Answer:
1.00 m is a more accurate measured length.
Explanation:
Denote length of the table by L.
For L=1.0 m, there is one significant digit after the decimal.
Care 1: When one more significant digit after decimal considered, the exact number can be from 0.95 to 1.05.
So, the possible span of error [tex]\Delta E_1= 1.05-0.95= 0.1m[/tex]
For L=1.00 m, there is two significant digits after the decimal.
Case 2: When one more significant digit after decimal considered, the exact number can be from 0.095 to 1.005.
So, the possible span of error [tex]\Delta E_2= 1.005-0.095= 0.01m[/tex]
Case 3: For L=1.000 m, there is three significant digits after the decimal.
When one more significant digit after decimal considered, the exact number can be from 0.0095 to 1.0005.
So, the possible span of error [tex]\Delta E_3= 1.0005-0.0095= 0.001m[/tex]
As [tex]\Delta E_1 >\Delta E_2>\Delta E_3[/tex]
So, the least error is in the third case when L=1.00m, hence, L= 1.00m is more accurate.

A fighter jet flies 3 km west and then 2 km east in 8 minutes. Determine the jet's average velocity. (Remember to convert!)
Answer:
7.69km/hr due east
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Displacement due west = 3km
Displacement due east = 2km
Time taken = 8 minutes
Unknown:
Average velocity = ?
Solution:
Average velocity is the rate of change of displacement with time.
Velocity = [tex]\frac{displacement}{time }[/tex]
Displacement is deals with the start and the end;
Here, displacement = 3km - 2km = 1km due east
Time = 8min
60min = 1hr
8min = [tex]\frac{8}{60}[/tex] = 0.13hr
Average velocity = [tex]\frac{1km}{0.13hr}[/tex] = 7.69km/hr due east
Two forces act on a 6.00-kg object. One of the forces is 10.0 N. If the object accelerates at 2.00 m/s2
,
what is the greatest possible magnitude of the other force?
Given :
Two forces act on a 6.00-kg object. One of the forces is 10.0 N.
Acceleration of object 2 m/s².
To Find :
The greatest possible magnitude of the other force.\
Solution :
Let, other force is f.
So, net force, F = 10 + f.
Now, acceleration is given by :
[tex]a=\dfrac{F}{mass}\\\\a= \dfrac{10+f}{6}\\\\\dfrac{10+f}{6}=2\\\\f = 12 - 10\\\\f = 2 \ N[/tex]
Therefore, the greatest possible magnitude of the other force is 2 N.
Hence, this is the required solution.

A car accelerates uniformly from rest to a final speed of 19 m/s in 10. seconds. How far does it travel during this period of acceleration?
Answer:
x = 95 [m]
Explanation:
To solve this problem we must use the following equation of kinematics.
[tex]v_{f} =v_{o} +a*t[/tex]
where:
Vf = final velocity = 19 [m/s]
Vo = initial velocity = 0 (starts from the rest)
a = acceleration [m/s²]
t = time = 10 [s]
Now we can find the acceleration
19 = 0 *a*(10)
a = 1.9 [m/s]
With the second equation we can find the distance:
[tex]v_{f} ^{2} =v_{o} ^{2} +(2*a*x)[/tex]
where:
x = distance [m]
(19)² = (0)² + (2*1.9*x)
3.8*x = 361
x = 95 [m]
If the weight of an object on the moon is 1/6 of the weight of an object on earth. What
would be the weight of an object on the moon who has the weight of 4800 N on earth?
Answer:
1200 N
Explanation:
Answer:
1200N
Explanation:
Suppose a body of mass "m" and its weight on the moon is Wm (where W is the weight and "m" is the moon ;which means weight on the moon).Mass of the moon is "M"
and its radius is "R"
Weight of an object on the moon = "F"(Force)with which the moon pulls.
Wm = GM*m/r2
Weight of the same object on the earth is We(where W is the weight and "e" is the earth; which means weight on the earth).
Mass of the earth is 100 times of that of the moon.
Radius of the moon = R
Radius of the Earth = 4R
Weight of the object on the moon =
We = G100M*m/(4R)2(Pronounced 4 R square)
We = G100M*m/(16R)2(Pronounced 16 R square)
Wm/We = G * M * m * 16R2/R2 * g * 100M * m
=16/100
Therefore, 4800N on earth= 1200N on moon

Do larger bodies orbit smaller bodies or do smaller bodies orbit larger bodies? Provide some examples to support your answer.
Explanation:
the small bodies in the solar system include comets, asteroids, the objects in the Kuiper Belt and the Oort cloud, small planetary satellites, Triton, Pluto, Charon, and interplanetary dust. As some of these objects are believed to be minimally altered from their state in the young solar nebula from which the planets formed, they may provide insight into planet Earth and the formation and evolution of the solar system.
how is an object's motion related to speed, velocity, and acceleration?
Answer:
Speed describes only how fast an object is moving, whereas velocity gives both the speed and direction of the object’s motion being a vector quantity. The standard unit to measure velocity is meter per second (m/s or ms-1). For example, “10 meters per second” is scalar and “10 meters per second West” is vector. Acceleration

Answer:
The basket ball
Explanation:
The heavier an object is the more kinetic energy it will have even if it is thrown at the same speed; therefore, since the basketball is the heaviest, it is the logical answer.
While a marble is heavy for its size, it would not have the same kinetic energy as the basket ball.
Beach balls weigh the least out of the options given so this cannot be the answer.
Golf balls, while they are dense, they do not weigh nearly as much as a basketball would!

What would happen to the number of home runs a player could hit if the air was removed from above the field? Use your understanding of Newton's laws to explain.
Answer:
number of home runs a player would hit would drastically increase
Explanation:
In a hypothetical scenario, if this were to happen the number of home runs a player would hit would drastically increase. When a player hits the ball force is applied to the ball which sends it flying, then the ball meets an opposing force of air resistance and a downward force of gravity which ultimately causes the ball to fall to the ground. This is explained in Newton's first law which states that "objects in motion remain in uniform motion and in a straight line unless they are met by an opposing unbalanced force." Without the force of air resistance, the ball will only be met with a downward force of gravity which would allow it to travel at a much greater distance before hitting the ground, thus resulting in a drastic increase of home runs.
Answer:
number of home runs a player would hit would drastically increase
