A runner wants to run 11.8 km. Her running pace is 7.4 mi/hr. How many minutes must she run? Express your answer using two significant figures.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

She must run 59 min to run 11.8 km.

Explanation:

Hi there!

First let's convert mi/h into km/min:

7.4 mi/h · (1.61 km /1 mi) · (1 h / 60 min) = 0.20 km/min (notice how the units mi and h cancel).

The runner runs at 0.20 km/ min, i.e., every minute she travels 0.20 km.

If 0.20 km are traveled in 1 min, then 11.8 km will be traveled in:

11.8 km / 0.20 km/min = 59 min

She must run 59 min to run 11.8 km.

An electron is projected horizontally into the uniform electric field directed vertically downward between two parallelplates. The plates are 2.00 cm apart and are of length 4.00 cm. The initial speed of the electron is vi = 8.00 × 106 m/s. As it enters the region between the plates, the electron is midway between the two plates; as it leaves, the electron just misses the upperplate.a)What is the magnitude ofv the electric field?

Answers

Answer:

455N/C

Explanation:

from  the question, the following data can be derived

Distance between plates=2cm=0.02m

length of plates=4cm=0.04m

initial speed of electron=8*10^6m/s

Note: the speed giving is the speed associated with the horizontal motion since it moves to cover the 4cm distance

we solve the equation component by component.

For the horizontal component, the time it takes to cover distance of 0.04m can be calculated as

[tex]time=\frac{distance }{velocity} \\t=\frac{0.04}{8*10^{6}}\\ t=5*10^{-9}secs[/tex]

this same time is used to cover the vertical distance which is midway between the plate,

Hence vertical distance covered is 0.02/2=0.01m

The acceleration in the vertical component can be calculated as

[tex]y=ut+1/2at^{2}\\u=0,\\y=0.01m\\a=\frac{2y}{t^{2}}\\ a=\frac{2*0.01}{5*10^{-9}}\\ a=8*10^{14}m/s^{2}[/tex]

since

F=qE

also F=ma

then

qE=ma

E=(ma)/q

m=mass of electron=9.1*10^-32kq

q=charge of electron=1.6*10^-19c

a=acceleration

if we substitute values  

[tex]E=\frac{9.1*10^{-32}*8*10^{14}}{1.6*10^{-19}} \\E=455N/C[/tex]

During the battle of Bunker Hill, Colonel William Prescott ordered the American Army to bombard the British Army camped near Boston. The projectiles had an initial velocity of 41 m/s at 38° above the horizon and an initial position that was 35 m higher than where they hit the ground. How far did the projectiles move horizontally before they hit the ground? Ignore air resistance.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]s=203.149\ m[/tex]

Explanation:

Given:

initial velocity of projectile, [tex]u=41\ m.s^{-1}[/tex]angle of projection above horizontal, [tex]\theta=38^{\circ}[/tex]

height of the initial projection point above the ground, [tex]y=35\ m[/tex]

Vertical component of the velocity:

[tex]u_y=u.\sin\theta[/tex]

[tex]u_y=41\times \sin38[/tex]

[tex]u_y=25.242\m.s^{-1}[/tex]

The time taken in course of going up:

(at top the final velocity will be zero)

[tex]v_y=u_y-g.t[/tex]

[tex]0=25.242-9.8\times t[/tex]

[tex]t=2.576\ s[/tex]

In course of going up the maximum height reached form the initial point:

(at top height the final velocity is zero. )

using eq. of motion,

[tex]v_y^2=u_y^2-2\times g.h[/tex]

where:

[tex]v_y=[/tex] final vertical velocity while going up.=0

[tex]h=[/tex] maximum height

[tex]0^2=25.242^2-2\times 9.8\times h[/tex]

[tex]h=32.5081\ m[/tex]

Now the total height to be descended:

[tex]h'=h+y[/tex]

[tex]h'=32.5081+35[/tex]

[tex]h'=67.5081\ m[/tex]

Now the time taken to fall the gross height in course of falling from the top:

[tex]h'=v_y.t'+\frac{1}{2} g.t'^2[/tex]

[tex]67.5081=0+4.9\times t'^2[/tex]

[tex]t'=3.7118\ s[/tex]

Now the total time the projectile spends in the air:

[tex]t_t=t+t'[/tex]

[tex]t_t=2.576+3.7118[/tex]

[tex]t_t=6.2878\ s[/tex]

Now the horizontal component of the initial velocity:

(it remains constant throughout the motion)

[tex]u_x=u.\cos\theta[/tex]

[tex]u_x=41\times \cos38[/tex]

[tex]u_x=32.3084\ m.s^{-1}[/tex]

Therefore the horizontal distance covered in the total time;

[tex]s=u_x\times t_t[/tex]

[tex]s=32.3084\times 6.2878[/tex]

[tex]s=203.149\ m[/tex]

Answer:

Explanation:

initial velocity, u = 41 m/s

angle, θ = 38 °

height, h = 35 m

Let the time is t.

Use second equation of motion in vertical direction

h = ut + 1/2 gt²

- 35 = 41 Sin 38 t - 0.5 x 9.8 x t²

4.9t² - 25.2 t - 35 = 0

[tex]t = \frac{25.2 \pm \sqrt{25.2^{2}+4\times 4.9\times 35}}{2\times 4.9}[/tex]

t = 6.3 second

Horizontal distance traveled in time t is

d = uCos 38 x t

d = 41 x Cos 38 x 6.3

d = 203.54 m

A proton moving at 3.0 × 10^4 m/s is projected at an angle of 30° above a horizontal plane. If an electric field of 400 N/C is acting down, how long does it take the proton to return to the horizontal plane?

Answers

Answer:

The time it takes the proton to return to the horizontal plane is 7.83 X10⁻⁷ s

Explanation:

From Newton's second law, F = mg and also from coulomb's law F= Eq

Dividing both equations by mass;

F/m = Eq/m = mg/m, then

g = Eq/m --------equation 1

Again, in a projectile motion, the time of flight (T) is given as

T = (2usinθ/g) ---------equation 2

Substitute in the value of g into equation 2

[tex]T = \frac{2usin \theta}{\frac{Eq}{m}} =\frac{m* 2usin \theta}{Eq}[/tex]

Charge of proton = 1.6 X 10⁻¹⁹ C

Mass of proton = 1.67 X 10⁻²⁷ kg

E is given as 400 N/C, u = 3.0 × 10⁴ m/s and θ = 30°

Solving for T;

[tex]T = \frac{(1.67X10^{-27}* 2*3X10^4sin 30}{400*1.6X10^{-19}}[/tex]

T = 7.83 X10⁻⁷ s

Final answer:

The force exerted on a proton in a magnetic field can be calculated using the given formula with specified values.

Explanation:

To find the time it takes for the proton to return to the horizontal plane, we need to consider the motion in both the horizontal and vertical directions separately.

Given:

[tex]- Initial velocity (\(v_0\)) of the proton = \(3.0 \times 10^4\) m/s\\- Launch angle (\(\theta\)) = 30°\\- Electric field (\(E\)) = 400 N/C\\- We'll assume the gravitational acceleration (\(g\)) as \(9.8 \, \text{m/s}^2\) downward.[/tex]

Vertical Motion:

In the vertical direction, the proton undergoes uniformly accelerated motion under gravity.

Using the formula for vertical motion:

[tex]\[ v = u + at \] \\where: \\- \( v \) is the final velocity (which is 0 when the proton returns to the horizontal plane),\\- \( u \) is the initial vertical velocity,\\- \( a \) is the acceleration due to gravity,\\- \( t \) is the time taken.\\[/tex]

We can resolve the initial velocity into vertical and horizontal components:

[tex]\[ u_y = v_0 \sin(\theta) \]\[ u_y = 3.0 \times 10^4 \times \sin(30^\circ) \]\[ u_y \approx 3.0 \times 10^4 \times 0.5 \]\[ u_y = 1.5 \times 10^4 \, \text{m/s} \][/tex]

Now, let's find the time it takes for the vertical velocity to become zero:

[tex]\[ 0 = u_y - gt \]\[ t = \frac{u_y}{g} \]\[ t = \frac{1.5 \times 10^4}{9.8} \]\[ t \approx 1530.61 \, \text{s} \][/tex]

Horizontal Motion:

In the horizontal direction, there is no acceleration or deceleration acting on the proton. So, the time taken for horizontal motion is the same as the time taken for vertical motion.

The time it takes for the proton to return to the horizontal plane is approximately [tex]\( 1530.61 \) seconds.[/tex]

A large box of mass M is moving on a horizontal surface at speed v0. A small box of mass m sits on top of the large box. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the two boxes are μs and μk, respectively.

Part B: A pickup truck with a steel bed is carrying a steel file cabinet. If the truck's speed is 10 m/s , what is the shortest distance in which it can stop without the file cabinet sliding? Assume that μs=0.80.

Answers

Answer:

Part A:

[tex]d_{min} = \frac{v_0^2}{2g\mu_s}[/tex]

Part B:

[tex]d_{min} = 6.37~m[/tex]

Explanation:

Part A:

We should determine the free-body diagram of the small box.

For the first box, the only force exerted to the box is the static friction force in the direction of the motion.

(The direction of the static friction is always confusing to the students. The wrong idea is that the static friction is in the opposite direction with the motion. However, if you look at the Newton's Second Law, it states that the net force acting on an object is equal to the mass times acceleration. And in this case acceleration of the total system is equal to that of the small box, since it sits on the larger box.)

We can use the equations of kinematics to find the minimum distance to stop without the small box slipping.

[tex]v^2 = v_0^2 + 2a(\Delta x)\\0 = v_0^2 + 2ad_{min}[/tex]

The acceleration can be found by Newton's Second Law:

[tex]F = ma\\mg\mu_s = m(-a)\\a = -g\mu_s[/tex]

The negative sign comes from the fact that in order for the boxes to stop they have to apply a negative acceleration.

Now, we can combine the two equations to find the distance x:

[tex]0 = v_0^2 + 2ad_{min} = v_0^2 + 2(-g\mu_s)d_{min}\\d_{min} = \frac{v_0^2}{2g\mu_s}[/tex]

Part B:

We can apply the above formula to the truck and file cabinet.

[tex]d_{min} = \frac{v_0^2}{2g\mu_s} = \frac{10^2}{2(9.8)(0.80)} = 6.37~m[/tex]

The expression for the shortest distance which the large box can stop without the small box slipping is [tex]d_{min} = \frac{v_0^2 }{2\mu_s g}[/tex]

The shortest distance in which the pickup can stop without the file cabinet sliding is 6.38 m.

The given parameters;

mass of the bigger box, = Mspeed of the bigger box, = v0mass of the small box, = mcoefficient of static friction, = μscoefficient of kinetic friction, = μk

The expression for the shortest distance which the large box can stop without the small box slipping is calculated as follows;

Apply work-energy theorem;

[tex]\mu_s F \times d_{min} = \frac{1}{2} Mv_0^2\\\\\mu_s (Mg)d_{min} = \frac{1}{2} Mv_0^2\\\\\mu_s gd_{min} = \frac{v_0^2}{2} \\\\d_{min} = \frac{v_0^2}{2\mu_s g}\\\\[/tex]

At the given speed and coefficient of static friction, the shortest distance in which the pickup can stop without the file cabinet sliding is calculated as;

[tex]d_{min} = \frac{v^2}{2\mu_s g} = \frac{10^2 }{2\times 0.8 \times 9.8} = 6.38 \ m[/tex]

An unknown gas effuses 2.3 times faster than N2O4 at the same temperature. What is the identity of the unknown gas?

Answers

Answer:

The molar mass of the unknown gas is 17.3 g/mol. The molar mass matches that of ammonia (NH₃) the most (17 g/mol)

Explanation:

Let the unknown gas be gas 1

Let N₂O₄ gas be gas 2

Rate of effusion ∝ [1/√(Molar Mass)]

R ∝ [1/√(M)]

R = k/√(M) (where k is the constant of proportionality)₁₂

R₁ = k/√(M₁)

k = R₁√(M₁)

R₂ = k/√(M₂)

k = R₂√(M₂)

k = k

R₁√(M₁) = R₂√(M₂)

(R₁/R₂) = [√(M₂)/√(M₁)]

(R₁/R₂) = √(M₂/M₁)

R₁ = 2.3 R₂

M₁ = Molar Mass of unknown gas

M₂ = Molar Mass of N₂O₄ = 92.01 g/mol

(2.3R₂/R₂) = √(92.01/M₁)

2.3 = √(92.01/M₁)

92.01/M₁ = 2.3²

M₁ = 92.01/5.29

M₁ = 17.3 g/mol

The molar mass matches that of ammonia the most (17 g/mol)

The unknown gas in the system has been ammonia.

The rate of diffusion of the two gases has been proportional to the molar mass of the gases.

The ratio of the rate of two gases can be given as:

[tex]\rm \dfrac{RateA}{RateB}\;=\;\sqrt{\dfrac{Molar\;mass\[A}{Molar\;mass\;B} }[/tex]

The two gases can be given as:

Gas A = Nitrogen tetraoxide = 2.3x

Gas B = x

[tex]\rm \dfrac{2.3x}{x}\;=\;\sqrt{\dfrac{92.011}{m} }[/tex]

Mass of the unknown gas = 17.39 grams.

The mass has been equivalent to the mass of the Ammonia. Thus, the unknown gas in the system has been ammonia.

An object is thrown straight up into the air and feels no air resistance. How can the object have an acceleration when it has stopped moving at its highest point?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

All objects on Earth are subjected to a constant gravitational acceleration g = 9.8m/s2, wherever they are on the surface of Earth and whatever their speed is. So if an object is being thrown to its highest point and stopped moving at that instant, that means the velocity at that instant is 0, not the acceleration. The acceleration is still g = 9.8m/s2

An airplane is dropping bales of hay to cattle stranded in a blizzard on the Great Plains. The pilot releases the bales at 150 m above the level ground when the plane is flying at 75 m/s in a direction 55° above the horizontal. How far in front of the cattle should the pilot release the hay so that the bales land at the point where the cattle are stranded?

Answers

Answer:

Δx=629.35 m

The pilot release the hay 629.35 m in front of the cattle so that the bales land at the point where the cattle are stranded.

Explanation:

Step 1:

Finding initial velocity components:

Initial velocity=v=75 m/s

α=55

[tex]v_{ox}=vcos\alpha\\v_{ox}=75cos55^o\\v_{ox}=43.018 m/s\\v_{oy}=vsin\alpha\\v_{oy}=75sin55^o\\v_{oy}=61.436 m/s[/tex]

Step 2:

[tex]y_o=150\ m[/tex]

Newton Second Equation:

[tex]y-y_o=v_{oy}t+\frac{1}{2}g t^2[/tex]

g=-9.8 m/s^2 (Downward direction)

[tex]v_{oy}=61.436\ m/s[/tex]

y=0 m

Above equation will become:

-150=(61.436)t-(4.90)t^2

Solving the above quadratic equation we will get:

t=-2.09 sec           ,        t=14.63 sec

t= 14.63 sec

Step 3:

Finding the distance:

Using Again Newton equation of motion in x-direction:

[tex]x-x_o=v_{ox}t+\frac{1}{2}a_{x} t^2[/tex]

Since velocity is constant in x- direction, [tex]a_x[/tex] will be zero.

Above equation will be:

[tex]\Delta x=v_{ox}t[/tex]

Δx=(43.018)(14.63)

Δx=629.35 m

The pilot release the hay 629.35 m in front of the cattle so that the bales land at the point where the cattle are stranded.

The pilot should release the hay at a height of 629.35 m.

(Schaum’s 18.25) A 55 g copper calorimeter (c=377 J/kg-K) contains 250 g of water (c=4190 J/kg-K) at 18o When a 75 g metal alloy at 100o C is dropped into the calorimeter, the final equilibrium temperature is 20.4o C. What is the specific heat of the alloy?

Answers

Answer:

1205.77 J/kg.K

Explanation:

Heat lost by alloy = heat gained by water + heat gained by the calorimeter

c₁m₁(t₂-t₃) = c₂m₂(t₃-t₁) + c₃m₃(t₃-t₁)................. Equation 1

Where c₁ = specific heat capacity of the alloy, m₁ = mass of the alloy, t₂ = initial temperature of the alloy, t₃ = equilibrium temperature, c₂ = specific heat capacity of water, m₂ = mass of water, t₁ = initial temperature of water and calorimter, c₃ = specific heat capacity of calorimter, m₃ = mass of calorimter.

Making c₁ the subject of the equation,

c₁ = c₂m₂(t₃-t₁) + c₃m₃(t₃-t₁)/m₁(t₂-t₃)........................ Equation 2

Given: c₂ = 4190 J/kgK, m₂ = 250 g = 0.25 kg, m₁ = 75 g = 0.075 kg, m₃ = 55 g = 0.055 kg, c₃ = 377 J/kg.K, t₁ = 18 °C, t₂ = 100 °C, t₃ = 24.4 °C.

Substitute into equation 2

c₁ = [0.25×4190×(24.4-18) + 0.055×377×(24.4-18)]/[0.075(100-24.4)]

c₁ = (6704+132.704)/5.67

c₁ = 6836.704/5.67

c₁ = 1205.77 J/kg.K

Thus the specific heat capacity of the alloy = 1205.77 J/kg.K

Final answer:

The student's question is about calculating the specific heat capacity of a metal alloy using the principles of calorimetry and the conservation of energy in a heat exchange process.

The student is asking about finding the specific heat capacity of a metal alloy using calorimetry. We know that when objects at different temperatures are combined, they will exchange heat energy until they reach thermal equilibrium. We can use the equation Q = mc ext{ extdegree}T (where Q is heat energy, m is mass, c is specific heat capacity, and  ext{ extdegree}T is the change in temperature) to find the specific heat capacity. In this scenario, the heat lost by the metal alloy will equal the heat gained by the copper calorimeter and the water contained within it. By setting these two equations equal to each other and solving for the specific heat capacity of the alloy, we can find that value.

Answer:

(i) 625 V/m

(ii) 2876.25 x 10⁻¹² C

(iii) 0.000575.25 x 10⁻⁶ F

Explanation:

(i) The electric field (E) between the plates of a parallel plate capacitor is related to the potential difference (V) between the plates and the distance (d) of separation between the plates as follows;

E = V / d        ----------------(i)

From the question;

V = 5.0V

d = 0.80cm =  0.008m

Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;

E = 5.0 / 0.008

Solve for E;

E = 625 V/m

Therefore, the electric field in the region between the two plates is 625 V/m.

(ii) To make things easier, let's calculate the capacitance of the parallel plates first.

The capacitance (C) of a parallel plate capacitor is given as;

C = A x ε₀ / d         --------------------------(ii)

Where;

A = Area of either of the plates of the capacitor = 0.52m²

ε₀ = permittivity of free space = 8.85 x 10⁻¹² F/m

d = distance between the plates =  0.8cm = 0.008m

Substitute these values into equation (ii) as follows;

C = 0.52 x 8.85 x 10⁻¹² / 0.008

Solve for C;

C = 575.25 x 10⁻¹² F

The capacitance (C) is related to potential difference (V) and charge (Q) on the plates as follows;

Q = C x V            -------------------------(iii)

Where;

C = 575.25 x 10⁻¹² F

V = 5.0V

Substitute these values into equation (iii)

Q = 575.25 x 10⁻¹² x 5

Q = 2876.25 x 10⁻¹² C

Therefore, the charge on the plates is 2876.25 x 10⁻¹² C

(iii) The capacitance (C) of the parallel plates has been calculated in (ii) above.

Its value is 575.25 x 10⁻¹² F = 0.000575.25 x 10⁻⁶F

Final answer:

The electric field in the region between two plates is 625 V/m. The capacitance of the plates is 0.0572 nanoFarads and the accumulated charge Q on each plate is 2.86 x 10^-10 Coulombs.

Explanation:

The electric field between two plates can be calculated using the formula E = V/d, where V represents voltage and d represents the distance between plates. So, the electric field E would be 5.0 V / 0.008 m = 625 N/C or 625 V/m.  The charge Q on the plates can be determined using the formula Q = CV, where C is the capacitance and V is the voltage. To find the charge, we first need to calculate the capacitance. The capacitance of the parallel plates can be calculated using the formula C = ε0*(A/d), where ε0 is the permittivity of free space (8.85 x 10^-12 F/m), A is the area and d is the distance between the plates. The capacitance then would be 8.85 x 10^-12 F/m * 0.52 m^2 / 0.008 m = 5.72 x 10^-11 F or 0.0572 nF (nanoFarads). So, after finding the capacitance, we can now calculate the charge Q, which is Q = CV = 5.72 x 10^-11 F * 5.0 V = 2.86 x 10^-10 C (Coulombs).

A spring with a spring-constant 2.2 N/cm is compressed 28 cm and released. The 5 kg mass skids down the frictional incline of height 31 cm and inclined at a 18 angle. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s^2. The path is frictionless except for a distance of 0.8 m along the incline which has a coefficient of friction of 0.3. k = 2.2 N/cm What is the final velocity vf of the mass? Answer in units of m/s

Answers

Final answer:

The final velocity of the mass is calculated using the principle of conservation of energy, which states that the potential energy in the spring is converted into kinetic energy and work done against friction as the mass moves down the incline. This total energy is then equal to the kinetic energy at the end of the path, from which the final velocity of the mass can be found.

Explanation:

To calculate the final velocity of the mass after it has been released from the spring, we need to realize that the energy in the system is conserved. The potential energy stored in the spring when it is compressed is converted into kinetic energy and work done against friction as the mass skids down the incline. The spring energy is given by (1/2)kx^2, where 'k' is the spring constant and 'x' is the amount of compression. In this case, it is (1/2)*2.2 N/cm*(28 cm)^2. We convert all values to standard SI units before calculation for accurate results.

The work done against the friction in the path of 0.8 m is friction force times the distance, which = μmgcosθ*d, where 'μ' is the friction coefficient, 'm' the mass, 'g' gravity, 'θ' the angle of incline, and 'd' the distance with friction. Here, it is 0.3*5 kg*9.8 m/s^2*cos(18 degrees)*0.8 m.

The total energy is thus the sum of spring energy and work done against friction. As this energy is equal to the kinetic energy at the end of the path (1/2)*m*v^2, we can solve this to find the final velocity 'v'

The final velocity of a 5 kg mass sliding down a frictional incline is calculated using energy conservation and work-energy principles, resulting in a final velocity of approximately 2.25 m/s.

Calculating the Final Velocity:

To determine the final velocity of a 5 kg mass after it slides down a frictional incline, we need to consider both energy conservation and work-energy principles.

Step-by-Step Solution

Spring Potential Energy: The spring is compressed by 28 cm, and the spring constant k is 2.2 N/cm. First, convert these units to meters and N/m: k = 220 N/m and compression x = 0.28 m. The potential energy stored in the spring is given by:

PE_spring = 0.5 x k x x².

PE_spring = 0.5 x 220 x (0.28)² = 8.624 J.

Gravitational Potential Energy: As the mass slides down the incline of height h = 0.31 m, the gravitational potential energy is converted to kinetic energy. PE_gravity = m x g x h

PE_gravity = 5 kg x 9.8 m/s² x 0.31 m = 15.19 J.

Energy Loss Due to Friction: The mass encounters a frictional patch of length d = 0.8 m with a friction coefficient μ = 0.3. The work done by friction (which is energy lost) is calculated by:

W_friction = μ x m x g x cos(θ) x d.

Given θ = 18°, cos(18°) ≈ 0.9511.

W_friction = 0.3 x 5 kg x 9.8 m/s² x 0.9511 x 0.8 m = 11.16 J.

Total Mechanical Energy: The initial potential energy (spring + gravity) is:

8.624 J + 15.19 J = 23.814 J.

After accounting for the work done by friction, the remaining energy will be:

KE_final = 23.814 J - 11.16 J = 12.654 J.

Final Velocity: The kinetic energy at the bottom of the incline is converted into the final velocity.

Using the relation:

KE = 0.5 x m x vf².

12.654 J = 0.5 x 5 kg x vf²

vf² = (2 x 12.654 J) / 5 kg = 5.06 m²/s²

vf = √5.06 m²/s² ≈ 2.25 m/s.

Thus, the final velocity of the mass is approximately 2.25 m/s.

How do astronomers use the Doppler effect to determine the velocities of astronomical objects?

Answers

Astronomers apply the Doppler effect because from there it is possible to obtain information about the change of light, which in turn affects the light spectrum and determines the movement of a body moving away or approaching us. The extent of the shift is directly proportional to the source's radial velocity relative to the observer.

The phenomenon that occurs to determine this process is linked to the wavelength. When the wave source moves towards you, the wavelength tends to decrease. This leads to a change in the color of the light moving towards the end of the spectrum, that is, towards the color blue. (It is really violet, but by convention the color blue was chosen as it is a more common color) When the source moves away from you and the wavelength lengthens, we call the color change a shift to red. Because the Doppler effect was first used with visible light in astronomy, the terms "blue shift" and "red shift" were well established.

Final answer:

Astronomers use the Doppler effect to calculate the velocities of stars and galaxies by observing changes in light wavelengths due to motion towards or away from the observer. It also helps in exoplanet detection and measuring a star's rotation speed by analyzing the broadened spectral lines.

Explanation:

Astronomers utilize the Doppler effect to determine the velocities of astronomical objects such as stars and galaxies. To calculate the radial velocity of an object, they require the speed of light, the original wavelength of the light emitted by the object, and the observed change in this wavelength due to the Doppler shift. This shift occurs because the object is moving relative to Earth—approaching objects cause a blue shift, where the wavelength shortens, while receding objects cause a red shift, where the wavelength lengthens.

The Doppler effect is also instrumental in exoplanet detection through stellar radial velocity measurements. When a planet orbits a star, it imparts a gravitational tug that causes the star to wobble slightly. This wobble changes the star's radial velocity, which can be detected as small shifts in the star's spectral lines, irrespective of the star's distance, as long as it can be observed with a high-resolution spectrograph.

Additionally, the Doppler effect helps measure the rotation speed of distant stars. By analyzing broadened spectral lines, which result from the spread of Doppler shifts due to the rotating star's edges moving towards and away from us, astronomers can infer how fast a star is spinning.

Answers

Answer:

38.35 bar

Explanation:

We are given that

Temperature=T=36.6 degree Celsius=36.6+273=309.6 K

Given mass of glucose=9.18 g

Molar mass of glucose([tex]C_6H_{12}O_6=6(12)+12(1)+6(16)[/tex]=180 g

Mass of c=12 g,mass of hydrogen=1 g, mass of O=16 g

Volume of solution=34.2 mL

Molarity of solution=[tex]\frac{given\;mass}{molar\;mass\times volume}\times 1000[/tex]

Where volume (in mL)

Molarity of solution=[tex]\frac{9.18}{180\times 34.2}\times 1000=1.49 M[/tex]

We know that

Osmotic pressure=[tex]\pi=MRT[/tex]

Where M=Molarity of solution

R=Constant=0.08314 Lbar/mol k

T=Temperature in kelvin

An object is attached to the lower end of a 32-coil spring that is hanging from the ceiling. fie spring stretches by 0.160 m. The spring is then cut into two identical springs of 16 coils each. As the drawing shows, each spring is attached between the ceiling and the object. By how much does each spring stretch

Answers

Answer:

0.080 m

Explanation:

According to Hooke's law, a spring with stiffness k will stretch a distance of Δx when a force F is applied:

F = k Δx

If we say the weight of the object is W, then the stiffness of the original spring is:

W = k (0.160 m)

k = W / 0.160

When the spring is cut in half, the stiffness of each new spring is the same as the original.  This time, the weight of the object is evenly distributed between each spring, so the force on each is W/2.

F = k Δx

W/2 = (W/0.160) Δx

1/2 = Δx / 0.160

Δx = 0.080

Each spring stretches 0.080 meters.

Formula to calculate resistivity is as follows.

            [tex]\rho = \frac{1}{qN \mu}[/tex]

                       = [tex]\frac{1}{(1.6 \times 10^{-19}) \times 2.72 \times 10^{17} \times 3900}[/tex] ohm/cm

                       = [tex]5.89 \times 10^{-3} ohm/cm[/tex]

As germanium is an intrinsic conductor. Hence, resistivity of Ge is as follows.

             [tex]\rho_{1} = \frac{1}{2qN_{o}\sqrt{\mu_{e}\mu_{r}}}[/tex]

                        = [tex]\frac{1}{2q(N_{A})^{\frac{1}{2}}\sqrt{\mu_{e}\mu_{r}}}[/tex]

                        =  [tex]\frac{1}{2 \times (1.6 \times 10^{-19}) \times (\sqrt{4.42 \times 10^{22}})\sqrt{(3900)(1900)}}[/tex] ohm/cm

                        = 0.546 [tex]ohm (\mu m)^{-1}[/tex]

Thus, we can conclude that resistivity of the Ge is 0.546 [tex]ohm (\mu m)^{-1}[/tex].

Two particles with charges +6 e⁻ and -10 e⁻ are initially very far apart (effectively an infinite distance apart). They are then fixed at positions that are 4.30 × 10⁻¹¹ m apart. What is EPE(final) - EPE(initial), which is the change in the electric potential energy?

Answer : The change in the electric potential energy is, [tex]-2.92\times 10^{-6}J[/tex]

Explanation : Given,

Formula used for electric potential energy of the two charges when they are separated is:

[tex]EPE=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}\times {\frac{q_1\times q_2}{r^2}[/tex]

[tex]EPE=\frac{k\times q_1\times q_2}{r^2}[/tex]

where,

EPE = electric potential energy

k = [tex]\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}=8.99\times 10^9[/tex]

[tex]q_1[/tex] = charge on 1st particle = +6 e⁻ = [tex]6\times 10^{-19}C[/tex]

[tex]q_2[/tex] = charge on 2nd particle = -10 e⁻ = [tex]-10\times 10^{-19}C[/tex]

r = distance between two charges = [tex]4.30\times 10^{-11}m[/tex]

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

[tex]EPE=\frac{(8.99\times 10^9)\times (6\times 10^{-19})\times (-10\times 10^{-19})}{(4.30\times 10^{-11})^2}[/tex]

[tex]EPE=-2.92\times 10^{-6}J[/tex]

Initially EPE = 0 J

Thus, [tex]EPE_{final}-EPE_{initial}=-2.92\times 10^{-6}J[/tex]

The positive sign indicate the attractive force and negative sign indicate the repulsive force.

Thus, the change in the electric potential energy is, [tex]-2.92\times 10^{-6}J[/tex]

CP Bang! A student sits atop a platform a distance h above the ground. He throws a large firecracker horizontally with a speed. However, a wind blowing parallel to the ground gives the firecracker a constant horizontal acceleration with magnitude a. As a result, the firecracker reaches the ground directly below the student. Determine the height h in terms of v, a, and g. Ignore the effect of air resistance on the vertical motion.

Answers

Answer:

 h = v₀ g / a

Explanation:

We can solve this problem using the kinematic equations. As they indicate that the air does not influence the vertical movement, we can find the time it takes for the body to reach the floor

          y = [tex]v_{oy}[/tex] t - ½ g t²

The vertical start speed is zero

            t² = 2t / g

The horizontal document has an acceleration, with direction opposite to the speed therefore it is negative, the expression is

            x = v₀ₓ t - ½ a t²

Indicates that it reaches the same exit point x = 0

           v₀ₓ t = ½ a t2

           v₀ₓ = ½ a (2h / g)

           v₀ₓ = v₀

           h = v₀ g / a

3. In a physics lab, 0.500-kg cart (Cart A) moving rightward with a speed of 100 m/s collides with a 1.50-kg cart (Cart B) moving leftward with a speed of 20 m/s. The two carts stick together and move as a single object after the collision. Determine the post-collision speed of the two carts.

Answers

Answer:

The speed of the two carts after the collision is 10 m/s.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The momentum of the system Cart A - Cart B is conserved because there is no external force acting on the system at the instant of the collision. Then, the momentum of the system before the collision will be equal to the momentum of the system after the collision. The momentum of the system is calculated as the sum of momenta of cart A and cart B:

initial momentum = mA · vA1 + mB · vB1

final momentum = (mA + mB) · vAB2

Where:

mA = mass of cart A = 0.500 kg

vA1 = velocity of cart A before the collision = 100 m/s

mB = mass of cart B = 1.50 kg.

vB1 = velocity of cart B before the collision = - 20 m/s

vAB2 = velocity of the carts that move as a single object = unknown.

(notice that we have considered leftward as negative direction)

Since the momentum of system remains constant:

initial momentum = final momentum

mA · vA1 + mB · vB1 = (mA + mB) · vAB2

Solving for vAB2:

(mA · vA1 + mB · vB1) / (mA + mB) = vAB2

(0.500 kg · 100 m/s - 1.50 kg · 20 m/s) / (0.500 kg + 1.50 kg) = vAB2

vAB2 = 10 m/s

The speed of the two carts after the collision is 10 m/s.

Final answer:

The post-collision speed of the two carts is 10 m/s moving in the positive x-direction.

Explanation:

In order to determine the post-collision speed of the two carts, we can use the principle of conservation of momentum. The total momentum before the collision is equal to the total momentum after the collision.

Before the collision, Cart A has a mass of 0.500 kg and a velocity of 100 m/s, while Cart B has a mass of 1.50 kg and a velocity of -20 m/s (negative because it is moving leftward). After the collision, the two carts stick together, so their masses add up to 2 kg.

Using the conservation of momentum equation: (Momentum before collision) = (Momentum after collision)

(0.500 kg × 100 m/s) + (1.50 kg × -20 m/s) = 2 kg × v

By solving this equation, we find that the post-collision speed of the two carts is 10 m/s moving in the positive x-direction.

N-type Impurities: Pentavalent impurities e.g. Phosphorous, Arsenic are added to have an additional electron in the structure. Thus a pentavalent impurity creates 1 additional electron.P-type Impurities: Trivalent impurities e.g. Boron, Aluminium are added to have a positive "hole" in the structure. Thus a trivalent impurity creates 1 hole.

If the g = 9.8 m/s^2 and I(solid sphere) = 2/5 mr^2, what is the minimum value of h such that the sphere completes the loop?

Answers

Final answer:

The minimum height that the sphere should start from to complete a loop-the-loop is 23.75 meters, as calculated through the conservation of energy and dynamics principles.

Explanation:

In this physics problem, the minimum height (h) that the solid sphere needs to start from to ensure it completes the loop-the-loop involves applying principles of conservation of energy and dynamics. Initially, the sphere has potential energy equal to mgh, and no kinetic energy as it starts from rest. As it descends, it gains kinetic energy and loses potential energy.

For the ball to successfully complete the loop, the force at the top must be equivalent to the weight of the sphere plus the force necessary to maintain circular motion. This can be written as: mg + mv²/r = 5mg. From here, we can derive the equation for v²: v² = 4gr.

Since the kinetic energy at the top of the loop is (1/2)mv² and the potential energy is 2mgr, by equating total energy at the top of the loop (potential plus kinetic) to the initial potential energy (mgh), we obtain: mgh = (1/2)m(4gr) + 2mgr.

From this equation, we can solve for h and find that h = 5r = 5*4.75m = 23.75m. This is the minimum height the sphere must start from to complete the loop.

Answers

Answer:

a. 2.645 * 10^7 m/s^2

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Velocity of rod = 2010m/s

Length of rod = 15.3cm = 0.153m

Mass of object placed at the end of the rod = 1g = 0.001kg

a. Centripetal acceleration is given as:

a = (v*v)/r

Where v = velocity

r = radius of curvature.

The radius of curvature in this case is equal to the length of the rod, since the rod makes the circular path of the motion.

Hence, centripetal acceleration at the end of the rod:

a = (2010*2010)/(0.153)

a = 26432156.86 m/s^2 = 2.64 * 10^7 m/s

b. The force needed to hold the object at the end of the rod is equal to the centripetal force at the end of the rod. Centripetal force is given as:

F = ma = (m*v*v)/r

Where a = centripetal acceleration

F = 0.001 * 2.64 * 10^7

F = 2.64 * 10^4N

The Centripetal acceleration at the end of rod is [tex]\bold {2.64 x 10^7\ m/s}[/tex] and Centripetal force required to hold the object is [tex]\bold { 2.64x 10^4\ N}[/tex].

Given  here:

Velocity of rod = 2010 m/s

Length of rod = 15.3cm = 0.153 m

Mass of object placed at the end of the rod = 1g = 0.001 kg

(A). Centripetal acceleration can be calculated by  

[tex]\bold {a =\dfrac { v^2}{r}}[/tex]

Reflecting telescopes have three advantages over refracting telescopes: they gather more light, do not suffer from chromatic aberration, and are easier and less expensive to manufacture.

Explanation:

There are three advantages of reflecting telescopes over refracting telescopes:

Light gathering: Reflecting telescopes can gather more light than refracting telescopes because the mirror in a reflecting telescope is larger in diameter than the lens in a refracting telescope. This allows reflecting telescopes to have a greater ability to capture faint objects in the sky.No chromatic aberration: Reflecting telescopes do not suffer from chromatic aberration, which is a distortion of colors caused by different wavelengths of light focusing at different points. This is because reflecting telescopes use mirrors instead of lenses to focus light, eliminating the issue of chromatic aberration.Ease and cost of manufacturing: Reflecting telescopes are easier and less expensive to manufacture than refracting telescopes. Only the front surface of a mirror needs to be accurately polished, whereas lenses in a refracting telescope require both sides to be polished to great accuracy. Reflecting telescopes also do not require high-quality glass throughout like refracting telescopes.

You are standing in a boat. Which of the following strategies will make the boat start moving? Check all that apply.

a. Pushing its mast
b. Throwing some cargo out of the boat
c. Pushing the front of the boat
d. Pushing another passenger

Answers

Answer:

b. Throwing some cargo out of the boat

Explanation:

Using the Newton's third law of motion which states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction.

So when we are on the boat and we throw some mass in a direction away from the boat out of it then we are imparting the force to the floating boat by the law of conservation of momentum as well.

The relation can be mathematically expressed as:

[tex]m_c.v_c=m_b.v_b[/tex]

where:

[tex]m_c=[/tex] mass of the cargo

[tex]v_c=[/tex] velocity of throwing the cargo

[tex]m_b=[/tex] mass of the whole boat including all that floats on it

[tex]v_b=[/tex] velocity of the boat system

Throwing some cargo out of the boat will make the boat start moving.

Newton's third law of motion;

This law states that action and reaction are equal and opposite.

The force apply in pushing the mast, or another passenger in the boat will be equal to the force they will push back at you. The two forces will cancel out and the boat will remain stationary.

Principle of conservation of linear momentum;

The total momentum of an isolated system is always conserved.

Throwing some cargo out of the boat will change the velocity of the cargo initially at rest and to conserve the linear momentum, the velocity of the boat will change as well.

Thus, throwing some cargo out of the boat will make the boat start moving.

What are the first three overtones of a bassoon that has a fundamental frequency of 90.0 Hz? It is open at both ends. (The overtones of a real bassoon are more complex than this example, because its double reed makes it act more like a tube closed at one end.)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]f_{2}=180Hz,f_{3}=270Hz,f_{4}=360Hz\\[/tex]

Explanation:

Given data

Frequency f=90 Hz

To find

First three overtones of bassoon

Solution

The fundamental frequency of bassoon is found by substituting n=1 in below equation

f=v/λ=nv/2L

[tex]f_{1}=v/2L[/tex]

The first overtone of bassoon is found by substituting n=2

So

[tex]f_{2}=2v/2L\\f_{2}=2(v/2L)\\as \\f_{1}=v/2L\\So\\f_{2}=2f_{1}\\f_{2}=2(90Hz)\\f_{2}=180Hz[/tex]

The second overtone of bassoon is found by substituting n=3

So

[tex]f_{3}=3v/2L\\f_{3}=3(v/2L)\\as \\f_{1}=v/2L\\So\\f_{3}=3f_{1}\\f_{3}=3(90Hz)\\f_{3}=270Hz[/tex]

The third overtone of bassoon is found by substituting n=4

So

[tex]f_{4}=4v/2L\\f_{4}=4(v/2L)\\as \\f_{1}=v/2L\\So\\f_{4}=4f_{1}\\f_{4}=4(90Hz)\\f_{4}=360Hz[/tex]

Final answer:

The first three overtones of a bassoon with a fundamental frequency of 90.0 Hz are 180.0 Hz, 270.0 Hz and 360.0 Hz. The calculation is based on the behaviour of the bassoon as a tube open at both ends where overtones occur at integer multiples of the fundamental frequency.

Explanation:

The question is asking for the first three overtones of a bassoon that has a fundamental frequency of 90.0 Hz. The bassoon is assumed to act like a tube that is open at both ends. For a tube open at both ends, the overtones, also called harmonics, occur at integer multiples of the fundamental frequency.

In this case, the fundamental frequency (first harmonic) is 90.0 Hz. The first overtone (which is the second harmonic) is then 2 * 90.0 Hz = 180.0 Hz. The second overtone (third harmonic) is 3 * 90.0 Hz = 270 Hz, and the third overtone (fourth harmonic) is 4 * 90.0 Hz = 360 Hz.

Thus, the first three overtones of a bassoon that has a fundamental frequency of 90.0 Hz, and is open at both ends, are 180.0 Hz, 270.0 Hz, and 360.0 Hz respectively.

On the moon, the gravitational acceleration is approximately one-sixth that on the surface of the earth. A 5-kg mass is "weighed" with a beam balance on the surface of the moon.
a) What is the expected reading?
b) If this mass is weighed with a spring scale that reads correctly for standard gravity on earth, what is the reading?

Answers

Answer:

A. 8.175 N

B. 49.05 N

Explanation:

A.

Acceleration due to gravity (moon) = 1/6 * (acceleration due to gravity (earth)

Acceleration due to gravity (earth) = 9.81 m/s2

Acceleration due to gravity (moon) = 9.81/6

= 1.635 m/s

Weight. Fm = acceleration due to gravity * mass

= 1.635 * 5

= 8.175 N

B. Acceleration due to gravity (earth) * mass = Fe

= 9.81 * 5

= 49.05 N

A 3-kW resistance heater in a water heater runs for 3 hours to raise the water temperature to the desired level. Determine the amount of electric energy used in both kWh and kJ. The amount of electricity used, in kWh, is kWh. The amount of electricity used, in kJ, is

Answers

Answer:

Energy, 9 kWh or 32400 kJ

Explanation:

Given that,

The power of heater, P = 3 kW

It runs for 3 hours to raise the water temperature to the desired level. We need to find the amount of electric energy used. We know that the electrical power of an object is given by total energy delivered per unit time. It is given by :

[tex]P=\dfrac{E}{t}[/tex]

[tex]E=P\times t[/tex]

[tex]E=3\ kW\times 3\ h[/tex]

E = 9 kWh

Since, 1 kWh = 3600 kJ

E = 32400 kJ

So, the amount of electric energy used is 9 kWh or 32400 kJ. Hence, this is the required solution.

Final answer:

The amount of electric energy used by a 3-kW resistance heater running for 3 hours would be 9kWh, which is equivalent to 32,400 kJ.

Explanation:

To determine the amount of electric energy used, we use the formula E = Pt, where E represents energy, P is power, and t is time. Here, the power used is 3kW (or kilowatts) and time is 3 hours. So, E = 3kW * 3 hours = 9 kWh (kilowatt-hours).

Moving forward, 1 kWh is equal to 3600 kilojoules (kJ). Therefore, to convert the energy we obtained in kilowatt-hours to kilojoules, we multiply it by 3600. This amounts to: 9 kWh * 3600 kJ/kWh = 32,400 kJ.

Therefore, the amount of electric energy used is 9 kWh or 32,400 kJ.
