Descriptive investigations involve collecting data about a system, but not making observations .

Aproton is projected toward a fixed nucleus of charge +ze with velocity vo. initially the two particles are very far apart. when the proton is a distance r from the nucleus its velocity has decreased to 1/2vo. how far from the nucleus will the proton be when its velocity has dropped to 1/4vo?

Copper has free electrons per cubic meter. a 71.0-cm length of 12-gauge copper wire that is 2.05 mm in diameter carries 4.85 a of current. (a) how much time does it take for an electron to travel the length of the wire? (b) repeat part (a) for 6-gauge copper wire (diameter 4.12 mm) of the same length that carries the same current. (c) generally speaking, how does changing the diameter of a wire that carries a given amount of current affect the drift velocity of the electrons in the wire?

Which accurately compares concave and convex lenses?
