Is the mass of an alpha particle greater than, less than, or equal to the mass of an electron?.

Answers

Answer 1
Alpha particles are 7300x heavier than electrons
Answer 2

The mass of an alpha particle greater than the mass of an electron. Hence option A is correct.

What is alpha particle ?

The alpha particle is a positively charged particle that is similar to the nucleus of the helium-4 atom and is spontaneously released by some radioactive substances. It is made up of two protons and two neutrons bonded together and has a mass of four units and a positive charge of two. Ernest Rutherford discovered and named alpha particles (1899), which he and colleagues employed in studies to examine the structure of atoms in thin metallic foils. This investigation produced in the original notion of the atom (1909-11) as a miniature planetary system with negatively charged particles (electrons) circling a positively charged nucleus. Later, in the first artificially created nuclear transmutation (1925), Patrick Blackett blasted nitrogen with alpha particles, converting it to oxygen.

Alpha particle is heavier than the electron cause alpha particle has 2 neutron and two protons which makes it heavier.

Hence option A is correct.

Joe now shifts his focus from the tree to the squirrel. To do this, the ciliary muscles in his eyes must have _____ the curvature of the lens, resulting in a(n) _______ focal length for the cornea-lens system. Note that curvature is different from radius of curvature.

Answers

The ciliary muscles in Joe's eyes must have reduce the curvature of the lens, resulting in an increase in focal length for the cornea-lens system in order to see the squirrel.

What is the function of the ciliary muscles of the eye?

The ciliary muscles of the eye is the eyes attaches the lens of the eye to the eye socket.

The relaxation and contraction of the ciliary muscles of the eye changes the shape ofthe lens.

When the ciliary muscles contracts, the lens become shorter and more thicker at the centre and can focus nearer objects.

When the ciliary muscles relaxes, the lens become longer and more thinner at the centre and can focus far objects.

Therefore, the ciliary muscles in Joe's eyes must have reduce the curvature of the lens, resulting in an increase in focal length for the cornea-lens system.

A dentist uses a concave mirror to examine a tooth that is 1cm in front of the mirror. The image of the tooth forms 10cm behind the mirror.
a. What is the mirror's radius of curvature?
b. What is the magnification of the image?

Answers

a) The mirror's radius of curvature will be 2.7 cm

B)  The magnification of the image will be 4.0.

What is a concave mirror?

When a hollow spherical is divided into pieces and the exterior surface of each cut portion is painted, it forms a mirror, with the inner surface reflecting the light.

From the mirror equation;

[tex]\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q} =\frac{1}{f} \\\\ \frac{1}{1}+\frac{1}{-10} =\frac{1}{f} \\\\ \frac{1}{f} = 1-\frac{1}{10} \\\\ \frac{1}{f} = \frac{9}{10} \\\\ f= 1.1111[/tex]

Hence,

The radius of curvature is twice of the focal length;

[tex]\rm R = 2f \\\\ \rm R = 2\times 1.111 \\\\ R=2.2222 \ cm[/tex]

Hence, the mirror's radius of curvature will be 2.7 cm.

The magnification factor is found as;

[tex]\rm m = \frac{-q}{p} \\\\ m = \frac{-(-10)}{1} \\\\ m = 10[/tex]

Hence, the magnification of the image will be 4.0.

Calculate the buoyant force of air (density 1.20 kg/m3 ) on a spherical party balloon that has a radius of 17.0 cm .

Answers

The buoyant force of air will be 246.25 N.Buoyancy force is the multiplication of the density, gravity, and volume.

What is buoyancy force?

A fluid exerts an upward force against the weight of a partly or completely submerged item. The weight of the overlying fluid causes pressure to rise with depth in a column of fluid.

The buoyancy force is found by the formula as;

[tex]\rm F_B = \rho g V[/tex]

[tex]\rm \rho[/tex] is the density

g is the acceleration due to gravity

V is the volume

[tex]\rm F_B[/tex] is the buoyancy force

The volume of the spherical balloon is;]

[tex]\rm V= \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 \\\\ \rm V= \frac{4}{3} \times 3.14 (17.0 \times 10^{-2})^3 \\\\ V=0.2056 \ m^3[/tex]

The buoyancy force is found by the formula as;

[tex]\rm F_B = \rho g V \\\\ \rm F_B = 1.20 \times 9.81 \times 0.2056 \\\\F_B = 246.25 \ N[/tex]

Hence the buoyant force of air will be 246.25 N.
