The primary equation in this calculation is rho = RA/L Where rho is resistivity, A is cross sectional area, L is length, and R is resistance

The resistance and length are given in the question. Res...

Balancing the centripetal force mv^2/r with the force experienced due to motion in a magnetic field qvB: m = qBr/v = qBC/2piv (C circumference). Putting in numbers: m = 1.83e-23 kg (~11,000 mass of proton...

Firstly, let's remember Newton's laws which tell us that in order for something to change direction of motion - like: going around in a circle - a net force needs to be acting on the object. In the case o...

The answer to this question is rather simple. There is a natural pressure/temperature difference between the inside of the house and the outside. The humidity in the warm air is much greater than that of ...

When a beta decay occurs there are a couple of things you need to remember. First of all you are right, the nucleus doesn't contain any electrons. It does however contain neutrons and protons. We know tha...
