Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

Given the following :

Velocity (V) of ball = 5m/s

Radius = 1m

Can the ball reach the highest point of the circular track

of radius 1.0 m?

The highest point in the track could be considered as the diameter of the circle :

Radius = diameter / 2;

Diameter = (2 * Radius) = (2*1) = 2

Maximum height which the ball can reach :

Using the relation :

Kinetic Energy = Potential Energy

0.5mv^2 = mgh

0.5v^2 = gh

0.5(5^2) = 9.8h

0.5 * 25 = 9.8h

12.5 = 9.8h

h = 12.5 / 9.8

h = 1.2755

h = 1.26m

Therefore maximum height which can be reached is 1.26m.

Since h < Diameter

Given that:

the time period T = 88.5 min = 88.5 × 60  = 5310 sec

The mass of the earth [tex]M_e[/tex] = 5.98 × 10²⁴ kg

if  the radius of orbit is r,

Then,

[tex]\dfrac{V^2}{r} = \dfrac{GM_e}{r^2}[/tex]

[tex]{V^2} = \dfrac{GM_e r}{r^2}[/tex]

[tex]{V^2} = \dfrac{GM_e }{r}[/tex]

[tex]{V} =\sqrt{ \dfrac{GM_e }{r}}[/tex]

Similarly :

[tex]T = \sqrt{\dfrac{ 2 \pi r} {V} }[/tex]

A 137 kg horizontal platform is a uniform disk of radius 1.53 m and can rotate about the vertical axis through its center. A 68.7 kg person stands on the platform at a distance of 1.19 m from the center, and a 25.9 kg dog sits on the platform near the person 1.45 m from the center. Find the moment of inertia of this system, consisting of the platform and its population, with respect to the axis.

Answers

Answer:

The moment of inertia is  [tex]I= 312.09 \ kg \cdot m^2[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  mass of the platform is   m =  137 kg

     The radius is  r  =  1.53 m

    The mass of the person is  [tex]m_p = 68.7 \ kg[/tex]

    The distance of the person from the center is  [tex]d_c =1.19 \ m[/tex]

    The mass of the dog is  [tex]m_d = 25.9 \ kg[/tex]

     The distance of the dog from the person [tex]d_d = 1.45 \ m[/tex]

Generally the moment of inertia of the system is mathematically represented as

      [tex]I = I_1 + I_2 + I_3[/tex]

Where [tex]I_1[/tex] is the moment of inertia of the platform which mathematically represented as

          [tex]I_1 = \frac{m * r^2}{2}[/tex]

substituting values

           [tex]I_1 = \frac{ 137 * (1.53)^2}{2}[/tex]

           [tex]I_1 = 160.35 \ kg\cdot m^2[/tex]

Also  [tex]I_2[/tex]  is the moment of inertia of the person about the axis which is mathematically represented as

          [tex]I_2 = m_p * d_c^2[/tex]

substituting values

          [tex]I_2 = 68.7 * 1.19^2[/tex]

          [tex]I_2 = 97.29 \ kg \cdot m^2[/tex]

Also  [tex]I_3[/tex]  is the moment of inertia of the dog about the axis which is mathematically represented as

          [tex]I_3 = m_d * d_d^2[/tex]

substituting values

          [tex]I_3 = 25.9 * 1.45^2[/tex]

          [tex]I_3 = 54.45 \ kg \cdot m^2[/tex]

Thus  

        [tex]I= 160.35 + 97.29 + 54.45[/tex]

        [tex]I= 312.09 \ kg \cdot m^2[/tex]

A radiation worker is subject to a dose of 200 mrad/h of maximum QF neutrons for one 40 h work week. How many times the yearly allowable effective dose did she receive?

Answers

Answer:

16 times.

Explanation:

The rate of the radiation dose is , R = 200 ×10^{-3} rad/hr

Time consumed, t = 40 hr

The magnitude of Q.F for the neutrons, Q.F = 2

Thus the effective radiation dose is:

[tex]R_{Eff} = Rt(Q.F) \\= 200 \times 10^{-3} \frac{rad}{hr} (40hr)(2) \\= 16 \ rad[/tex]

Thus, the effective dose allowable yearly = 16 times

Answer:

The  value  is  [tex]f = 1.98918*10^{5}\ Hz[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The magnetic field is    [tex]B=1.2* 10^{-6} sin [2\pi[(\frac{z}{240} ) - ( \frac{t * 10^7}{8} ) ] ][/tex]

 This above  equation can be modeled as

A person with a near point of 85 cm, but excellent distance vision normally wears corrective glasses. But he loses them while travelling. Fortunately he has his old pair as a spare. (a) If the lenses of the old pair have a power of 2.25 diopters, what is his near point (measured from the eye) when wearing the old glasses, if they rest 2.0 cm in front of the eye

Answers

Answer:

30.93 cm

Explanation:

Given that:

A person with a near point of 85 cm, but excellent distance vision normally wears corrective glasses

The power of the old pair of lens p = 2.25 diopters

The focal point length = 1/p

The focal point length =  1/2.25

The focal point length = 0.444 m

The focal point length = 44.4 cm

The near point of the person from the glass = (85 -2)cm , This is because the glasses are usually 2 cm from the lens

The near point of the person from the glass = 83 cm

Let consider s' to be the image on the same sides of the lens,

∴ s' = -83 cm

We known that:

the focal length of a mirror image 1/f =1/u +1/v

Assume the near point is at an excellent distance s from the glass where the person wears the corrective glasses.

Then:

1/f = 1/s + 1/s'

1/s = 1/f - 1/s'

1/s = (s' -f)/fs'

s = fs'/(s'-f)

s =( 44.4× -83)/(-83 - 44.4)

s = - 3685.2 / - 127.4

s = 28.93 cm

Thus , the near distance point measured from the eye wearing the old glasses, if they rest 2.0 cm in front of the eye = (28.93 +2.0)cm

= 30.93 cm

Answers

Answer:

Option B: T ≈ 0.16 μs

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass; m = 6.68 × 10^(-27) kg

Magnetic field;B = 0.80 T

Charge;q = 2e

Now, e is the charge on an electron and it has a value of 1.6 × 10^(-19) C

So, q = 2 × 1.6 × 10^(-19)

q = 3.2 × 10^(-19) C

The period of the circular motion of the alpha particles moving along a in the presence of the magnetic field is given by;

T = 2πm/qB

Where ;

m, q and B are as stated earlier.

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

T = (2π × 6.68 × 10^(-27))/(3.2 × 10^(-19) × 0.8)

T = 0.16395 × 10^(-6) s

This can also be written as;

T ≈ 0.16 μs

NASA is doing research on the concept of solar sailing. A solar sailing craft uses a large, low-mass sail and the energy and momentum of sunlight for propulsion.
A) Should the sail be absorptive or reflective? Why?
B)The total power output of the sun is 3.90 × 1026 W . How large a sail is necessary to propel a 1.06 × 104 kg spacecraft against the gravitational force of the sun?

Answers

Answer:

A = 6.8 km²

Explanation:

A) The sail should be reflective. This is so that, it can produce the maximum radiation pressure.

B) let's begin with the formula used to calculate the average solar sail in orbit around the sun. Thus;

F_rad = 2IA/c

I is given by the formula;

I = P/(4πr²)

Thus;

F_rad = (2A/c) × (P/(4πr²)) = PA/2cπr²

Where;

A is the area of the sail

r is the distance of the sail from the sun

c is the speed of light = 3 × 10^(8) m/s

P is total power output of the sun = 3.90 × 10^(26) W

Now,F_rad = F_g

Where F_g is gravitational force.

Thus;

PA/2cπr² = G•m•M_sun/r²

r² will cancel out to givw;

PA/2cπ = G•m•M_sun

Making A the subject, we have;

A = (2•c•π•G•m•M_sun)/P

Now, m = 1.06 × 10⁴ kg and M_sun has a standard value of 1.99 × 10^(30) kg

G is gravitational constant and has a value of 6.67 × 10^(-11) Nm²/kg²

Thus;

A = (2 × 3 × 10^(8) × π × 6.67 × 10^(-11) × 1.06 × 10^(4) × 1.99 × 10^(30))/(3.90 × 10^(26))

A = 6.8 × 10^(6) m² = 6.8 km²

The same force is applied to two hoops. The hoops have the same mass, but the larger hoop has twice the radius. How are the angular accelerations of the hoops related

Answers

Answer:

The angular accelerations of the hoops are related by the following equation [tex]\alpha _1 = 2\alpha_2[/tex].

Explanation:

Net force on the hoop is given by;

[tex]F_{net} = ma[/tex]

where;

a is linear acceleration

m is the mass

Net torque on the hoop is given by;

[tex]\tau_{net} =I\alpha[/tex]

where;

I is moment of inertia

α is the angular acceleration

But, τ = Fr

[tex]Fr = I \alpha\\\\\alpha = \frac{Fr}{I} \\\\\alpha = \frac{Fr}{mr^2} \\\\\alpha = \frac{F}{mr} \\\\\alpha = \frac{1}{r} (\frac{F}{m} )\\\\(since\ the \ force\ and \ mass \ are \ the \ same, \frac{F}{m} = constant=k)\\\\ \alpha = \frac{k}{r}\\\\k = \alpha r[/tex]

[tex]\alpha _1 r_1= \alpha_2 r_2[/tex]

let the angular acceleration of the smaller hoop = α₁

let the radius of the smaller hoop = r₁

then, the radius of the larger loop, r₂ = 2r₁

let the angular acceleration of the larger hoop = α₂

[tex]\alpha _1 r_1= \alpha_2 r_2\\\\\alpha_2= \frac{ \alpha _1 r_1}{r_2} \\\\\alpha_2=\frac{\alpha _1 r_1}{2r_1} \\\\\alpha_2= \frac{\alpha _1}{2} \\\\\alpha _1 = 2\alpha_2[/tex]

Therefore, the angular accelerations of the hoops are related by the following equation [tex]\alpha _1 = 2\alpha_2[/tex]

Two protons moving with same speed in same direction repel each other but what about two protons moving with different speed in the same direction?

Answers

Answer:In the case of two proton beams the protons repel one another because they have the same sign of electrical charge. There is also an attractive magnetic force between the protons, but in the proton frame of reference this force must be zero! Clearly then the attractive magnetic force that reduces the net force between protons in the two beams as seen in our frame of reference is relativistic. In particular the apparent magnetic forces or fields are relativistic modifications of the electrical forces or fields. As such modifications, they cannot be stronger than the electrical forces and fields that produce them. This follows from the fact that switching frames of reference can reduce forces, but it can’t turn what is attractive in one frame into a repulsive force in another frame.

In the case of wires the net charges in two wires are zero everywhere along the wires. That makes the net electrical forces between the wires very nearly zero. Yet the relativistic magnetic forces and fields will be of the same sort as in the case of two beams of charges of a single sign. This is true even in the frame of reference of what we think as the moving charges, that is, the electrons. In the frame of reference moving at the drift velocity of these current-carrying electrons, it is the protons or positively charged ions that are moving in the other direction. Consequently in any frame of reference for current-carrying wires in parallel, the net electrical force will be essentially zero, and there will be a net attractive magnetic force

Explanation:                                                                              

Explanation:

Particles with similar charges (both positive or both negative) will always repel each other, regardless of their speed or direction.

In this exercise we are asked to show which statements are true.

The expression the potential with respect to earth or the electric field with respect to earth refers to the potential or electric charge of the planet that is assumed to be very large and does not change in value during work.

It does not refer to the height of the system.

We can now review the claims

a) False. Potential not to be refers to height

b) True. Does not depend on orientation

c) False The potential does not refer to the altitude but to the Earth's charge

NASA is giving serious consideration to the concept of solar sailing. A solar sailcraft uses a large, low- mass sail and the energy and momentum of sunlight for propulsion.
Should the sail be absorbing or reflective? Why?
a. The sail should be reflective because in this case the momentum transferred to the sail per unit area per unit time is smaller than for absorbing sail, therefore the radiation pressure is larger for the reflective sail
b. The sail should be absorbing because in this case the momentum transferred to the sail per unit area per unit time is larger than for reflective sail, therefore the radiation pressure is larger for the absorbing sail
c. The sail should be absorbing because in this case the momentum transferred to the sail per unit area per unit time is smaller than for reflective sail, therefore the radiation pressure is larger for the absorbing sail.
d. The sail should be reflective because in this case the momentum transferred to the sail per unit area per unit time is larger than for absorbing sail, therefore the radiation pressure is larger for the reflective sail

Answers

Answer:

d. The sail should be reflective because in this case the momentum transferred to the sail per unit area per unit time is larger than for absorbing sail, therefore the radiation pressure is larger for the reflective sail.

Explanation:

Let us take the momentum of a photon unit as u

we know that the rate of change of momentum is proportional to the force exerted.

For a absorbing surface, the photon is absorbed, therefore the final momentum is zero. From this we can say that

F = (u - 0)/t = u/t

for a unit time, the force is proportional to the momentum of the wave due to its energy density. Therefore,

F = u

For a reflecting surface, the momentum of the wave strikes the sail and changes direction. Since we know that the speed of light does not change, then the force is proportional to

F = (u - (-u))/t = 2u/t

just as the we did above, it becomes

F = 2u.

From this we can see that the force for a reflective sail is twice of that for an absorbing sail, and we know that the pressure is proportional to the force for a given area. From these, we conclude that the sail should be reflective because in this case the momentum transferred to the sail per unit area per unit time is larger than for absorbing sail, therefore the radiation pressure is larger for the reflective sail.

an electron travels at 0.3037 times the speed of light through a magnetic field and feels a force of 1.2498 pN. What is the magnetic field in teslas

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Charge on an electron (q) = 1.6 * 10 ^ -19 C

Velocity of electron (v) = 0.3037 * 300,000,000 = 91,110,000 m/sec

We know that, Force exerted on moving particle moving through a magnetic field :

[tex]F= q * v * B ( q,v\ and\ B\ are\ mutually\ perpendicular)[/tex]

1.2498 * 10 ^ -12 = 1.6 * 10^ -19 * 91110000 * B

B =  0.08573 T

An interference pattern is produced by light with a wavelength 590 nm from a distant source incident on two identical parallel slits separated by a distance (between centers) of 0.580 mm .


Required:

a. If the slits are very narrow, what would be the angular position of the first-order, two-slit, interference maxima?

b. What would be the angular position of the second-order, two-slit, interference maxima in this case?

Answers

Answer:

a. 0.058°

b.  0.117°

Explanation:

a. The angular position of the first-order is:

[tex] d*sin(\theta) = m\lambda [/tex]

[tex] \theta = arcsin(\frac{m \lambda}{d}) = arcsin(\frac{1* 590 \cdot 10^{-9} m}{0.580 \cdot 10^{-3} m}) = 0.058 ^{\circ} [/tex]

Hence, the angular position of the first-order, two-slit, interference maxima is 0.058°.

b. The angular position of the second-order is:

[tex] \theta = arcsin(\frac{m \lambda}{d}) = arcsin(\frac{2* 590 \cdot 10^{-9} m}{0.580 \cdot 10^{-3} m}) = 0.12 ^{\circ} [/tex]

Therefore, the angular position of the second-order, two-slit, interference maxima is 0.117°.

550 J of heat is added to the gas in an isothermal process. As the gas expands, pushing against the piston, how much work does it do

Answers

Answer:

The work done by the system is 550 J

Explanation:

Given;

heat added to the system, Q = 550 J

Apply the first law of thermodynamics;

ΔU = Q - W

Where;

ΔU is change in internal energy

Q is the heat added to the system

W is the work done by the system

During an isothermal process, the temperature of the system is constant for the entire process. During this process, the change in the internal energy is zero.

0 = Q - W

W = Q

W = 550 J

Therefore, the work done by the system is 550 J

Using a conventional two-slit apparatus with light of wavelength 605 nm, 34 bright fringes per centimeter are observed on a screen 3.1 m away. What is the slit separation

Answers

Answer:

d = 6.38 x 10⁻³ m = 6.38 mm

Explanation:

Since, the no. of bright fringes is 34 in a centimeter, therefore, the fringe spacing must be equal to:

Fringe Spacing = Δx = 1 cm/34

Δx = 0.0294 cm = 2.94 x 10⁻⁴ m

But, the formula for fringe spacing in a double slit experiment is:

Δx = λL/d

where,

λ = wavelength of light = 605 nm = 6.05 x 10⁻⁷ m

L = Distance between screen and slits = 3.1 m

d = slit separation = ?

Therefore,

2.94 x 10⁻⁴ m = (6.05 x 10⁻⁷ m)(3.1 m)/d

d = (18.755 x 10⁻⁷ m²)/(2.94 x 10⁻⁴ m)

d = 6.38 x 10⁻³ m = 6.38 mm

A circular conducting loop of radius 31.0 cm is located in a region of homogeneous magnetic field of magnitude 0.700 T pointing perpendicular to the plane of the loop. the loop is connected in series with a resistor of 265 ohms. The magnetic field is now increased at a constant rate by a factor of 2.30 in 29.0 s.

Calculate the magnitude of induced emf in the loop while the magnetic field is increasing.

With the magnetic field held constant a ts its new value of 1.61 T, calculate the magnitude of its induced voltage in the loop while it is pulled horizontally out of the magnetic field region during a time interval of 3.90s.

Answers

Answer:

(a) The magnitude of induced emf in the loop while the magnetic field is increasing is 9.5 mV

(b) The magnitude of the induced voltage at a constant magnetic field is 124.7 mV

Explanation:

Given;

radius of the circular loop, r = 31.0 cm = 0.31 m

initial magnetic field, B₁ = 0.7 T

final magnetic field, B₂ = 2.3B₁ = 2.3 X 0.7 T = 1.61 T

duration of change in the field, t = 29

(a) The magnitude of induced emf in the loop while the magnetic field is increasing.

[tex]E = A*\frac{\delta B}{\delta t} \\\\[/tex]

[tex]E = A*\frac{B_2 -B_1}{\delta t}[/tex]

Where;

A is the area of the circular loop

A = πr²

A = π(0.31)² = 0.302 m²

[tex]E = A*\frac{B_2 -B_1}{\delta t} \\\\E = 0.302*\frac{1.61-0.7}{29} \\\\E = 0.0095 \ V\\\\E = 9.5 \ mV[/tex]

(b) the magnitude of the induced voltage at a constant magnetic field

E = A x B/t

E = (0.302 x 1.61) / 3.9

E = 0.1247 V

E = 124.7 mV

Therefore, the magnitude of the induced voltage at a constant magnetic field is 124.7 mV
