A charming friend of yours who has been reading a little bit about astronomy accompanies you to the campus observatory and asks to see the kind of star that our Sun will ultimately become, long, long after it has turned into a white dwarf. Why is the astronomer on duty going to have a bit of a problem satisfying her request? a. All the old stars in our Galaxy are located in globular clusters and all of these are too far away to be seen with the kind of telescope a college or university campus would have. b. After being a white dwarf, the Sun will explode, and there will be nothing left to see. c. The universe is not even old enough to have produced any white dwarfs yet d. Astronomers only let people with PhD's look at these stellar corpses; it's like an initiation rite for those who become astronomers. e. After a white dwarf cools off it becomes too cold and dark to emit visible light

Proposed Exercises: Strength and Acceleration in Circular Movement In the situation illustrated below, a 7kg sphere is connected to a rope so that it can rotate in a vertical plane around an O axis perpendicular to the plane of the figure. When the sphere is in position A, it has a speed of 3m/s. Determine for this position the modulus of tension on the string and the rate at which the tangential velocity is increased.

Answers

Answer:

81 N

7.1 m/s²

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the sphere.  There are two forces:

Weight force mg pulling straight down,

and tension force T pulling up along the rope.

Sum of forces in the centripetal direction:

∑F = ma

T − mg sin 45° = m v² / r

T = m (g sin 45° + v² / r)

T = (7 kg) (10 m/s² sin 45° + (3 m/s)² / 2 m)

T = 81 N

Sum of forces in the tangential direction:

mg cos 45° = ma

a = g cos 45°

a = (10 m/s²) cos 45°

a = 7.1 m/s²

"Light traveling in a medium with a refractive index 1.11 is incident on a plate of another medium with index of refraction 1.66. At what angle of incidence is the reflected light fully polarized?"

Answers

Answer:

56°

Explanation:

Brewsters angle can be simply derived from

n1sin theta1= n2sintheta2= n2costheta1

because the reflected light will be 100% polarized if it is reflected at an angle 90o to the refracted light. Hence, Brewsters angle is

Tan theta= n2/n1

1.66/1.11= 1.495

Theta = 56°

Answers

Answer:

The induced current in the resistor is I = BLv/R

Explanation:

The induced emf ε in the long bar of length, L in a magnetic field of strength, B moving with a velocity, v is given by

ε = BLv.

Now, the current I in the resistor is given by

I = ε/R where ε = induced emf in circuit and R = resistance of resistor.

So, the current I = ε/R.

substituting the value of ε the induced emf, we have

I = ε/R

I = BLv/R

So, the induced current through the resistor is given by I = BLv/R

A flat, circular loop has 18 turns. The radius of the loop is 15.0 cm and the current through the wire is 0.51 A. Determine the magnitude of the magnetic field at the center of the loop (in T).

Answers

Answer:

The magnitude of the magnetic field at the center of the loop is 3.846 x 10⁻ T.

Explanation:

Given;

number of turns of the flat circular loop, N = 18 turns

radius of the loop, R = 15.0 cm = 0.15 m

current through the wire, I = 0.51 A

The magnetic field through the center of the loop is given by;

[tex]B = \frac{N\mu_o I}{2R}[/tex]

Where;

μ₀ is permeability of free space = 4π x 10⁻⁷ m/A

[tex]B = \frac{N\mu_o I}{2R} \\\\B = \frac{18*4\pi*10^{-7} *0.51}{2*0.15} \\\\B = 3.846 *10^{-5} \ T[/tex]

Therefore, the magnitude of the magnetic field at the center of the loop is 3.846 x 10⁻ T.

Determine the next possible thickness of the film (in nm) that will provide the proper destructive interference. The index of refraction of the glass is 1.58 and the index of refraction of the film material is 1.48.

Answers

Answer:

I know the answer

Explanation:

We want to choose the film thickness such that destructive interference occurs between the light reflected from the air-film interface (call it wave 1) and from the film-lens interface (call it wave 2). For destructive interference to occur, the phase difference between the two waves must be an odd multiple of half-wavelengths.

You can think of the phases of the two waves as second hands on a clock; as the light travels, the hands tick-tock around the clock. Consider the clocks on the two waves in question. As both waves travel to the air-film interface, their clocks both tick-tock the same time-no phase difference. When wave 1 is reflected from the air-film boundary, its clock is set forward 30 seconds; i.e., if the hand was pointing toward 12, it's now pointing toward 6. It's set forward because the index of refraction of air is smaller than that of the film.

Now wave 1 pauses while wave two goes into and out of the film. The clock on wave 2 continues to tick as it travels in the film-tick, tock, tick, tock.... Clock 2 is set forward 30 seconds when it hits the film-lens interface because the index of refraction of the film is smaller than that of the lens. Then as it travels back through the film, its clock still continues ticking. When wave 2 gets back to the air-film interface, the two waves continue side by side, both their clocks ticking; there is no change in phase as they continue on their merry way.

So, to recap, since both clocks were shifted forward at the two different interfaces, there was no net phase shift due to reflection. There was also no phase shift as the waves travelled into and out from the air-film interface. The only phase shift occured as clock 2 ticked inside the film.

Call the thickness of the film t. Then the total distance travelled by wave 2 inside the film is 2t, if we assume the light entered pretty much normal to the interface. This total distance should equal to half the wavelength of the light in the film (for the minimum condition; it could also be 3/2, 5/2, etc., but that wouldn't be the minimum thickness) since the hand of the clock makes one revolution for each distance of one wavelength the wave travels (right?).

An 18g bullet is shot vertically into a 10kg block. The block lifts upward 9mm. The bullet penetrates the block in a time interval of 0.001s. Assume the force on the bullet is constant during penetration. The initial kinetic energy of the bullet is closest to:

Answers

Answer:

The initial kinetic energy of the bullet is closest to 491.87 J

Explanation:

Given;

mass of bullet, m₁ = 18g = 0.018kg

mass of block, m₂ = 10kg

height moved by the block, h = 9 mm = 0.009 m

time taken for the bullet to travel through the block, t = 0.001s

let the initial velocity of the bullet = v₁

let the final velocity of the bullet = v₂

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum;

initial momentum = final momentum

0.018v₁ = v₂(0.018 + 10)

0.018v₁ = 10.018v₂ -----equation (1)

Apply the law of conservation of energy when the bullet lifts the block through 9mm

mgh = ¹/₂mv₂²

gh = ¹/₂v₂²

v₂² = 2gh

v₂ = √2gh

v₂ = √(2 x 9.8 x 0.009)

v₂ = 0.42 m/s

Substitute in v₂ in equation 1, to determine the initial velocity of the bullet;

0.018v₁ = 10.018v₂

0.018v₁  =  10.018(0.42)

0.018v₁  = 4.208

v₁ = 4.208 / 0.018

v₁ = 233.78 m/s

Now, determine the initial kinetic energy of the bullet;

K.E₁ = ¹/₂m₁v₁²

K.E₁ = ¹/₂(0.018)(233.78)²

K.E₁ = 491.87 J

Therefore, the initial kinetic energy of the bullet is closest to 491.87 J

an ideal gas is confined to a container with adjustable volume. the number of moles, n, and temperature, t, are constant. by what factor will the volume change if pressure increase by a factor of 5.1

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since both moles and temperature remain constant, we can use the Boyle's law that relates the volume and pressure as an inversely proportional relationship:

[tex]P_1V_1=P_2V_2[/tex]

Thus, since the pressure increases by a factor of 5.1 (statement), we have:

[tex]P_2=5.1P_1[/tex]

Thus, the final volume is:

[tex]V_2=\frac{P_1V_1}{P_2} =\frac{P_1V_1}{5.1P_1}\\\\V_2=\frac{10}{51}V_1[/tex]

It means that the volume will decrease by a factor of 10/51.

           s = s₀ sin (kx - wt)

where s is the displacement, s₀ the amplitude of the wave, k the wave vector and w the angular velocity, in this exercise the expression given is

           s = 1.99 sin (15.2 x - 869 t)

a) the amplitude of the wave is

        A = s₀

        A = 1.99 μm

b) wave spectrum is

      k = 2π /λ

in the equation k = 15.2 m⁻¹

      λ = 2π / k

      λ = 2π / 15.2

     λ = 0.4134 m

c) the speed of the wave is given by the relation

d) To find the instantaneous velocity, we substitute the given distance and time into the equation

       s = 1.99 sin (15.2 0.0509 - 869 2.94 10⁻³)

       s = 1.99 sin (0.77368 - 2.55486)

remember that trigonometry functions must be in radians

       s = 1.99 (-0.98895)

           v_maximum = 1.99 869

           v_maximo = 1739.31 μm / s

let's reduce to mm / s

          v_maxio = 1739.31 miuy / s (1 mm / 103 mu)

When A sound wave has the general expression is:

Then, s = s₀ sin (kx - wt)

Now, where s is the displacement, Then, s₀ is the amplitude of the wave, k the wave vector, and w the angular velocity, Now, in this exercise the expression given is

s is = 1.99 sin (15.2 x - 869 t)

a) When the amplitude of the wave is

A is = s₀

Thus, A = 1.99 μm

b) When the wave spectrum is

k is = 2π /λ

Now, in the equation k = 15.2 m⁻¹

Then, λ = 2π / k

After that, λ = 2π / 15.2

Thus, λ = 0.4134 m

c) When the speed of the wave is given by the relation is:

Then, v = λ f

Now, the angular velocity and frequency are related is:

w is = 2π f

Then, f = w / 2π

After that, f = 869 / 2π

Now, f = 138.3 Hz

Then, v = 0.4134 138.3

Thus, v = 57.2 m / s

d) Now, To find the instantaneous velocity, When we substitute the given distance and time into the equation

Then, s = 1.99 sin (15.2 0.0509 - 869 2.94 10⁻³)

After that, s = 1.99 sin (0.77368 - 2.55486)

Then remember that trigonometry functions must be in radians

After that, s = 1.99 (-0.98895)

Thus, s = - 1,946 nm

When The negative sign indicates that it shifts to the left

e) When the speed of the oscillating part is

Then, v = ds / dt)

Now, v = - s₀(-w) cos (kx -wt)

When the maximum speed occurs when the cosines is 1

Then, v_maximo = s₀w

After that, v_maximum = 1.99 869

v_maximo = 1739.31 μm / s

Now, let's reduce to mm / s

Then, v_maxio = 1739.31 miuy / s (1 mm / 103 mu)

The magnitude of free fall acceleration at the surface of earth is given by the following formula:

g = GM/R²   ----- equation 1

where,

g = free fall acceleration

G = Universal Gravitational Constant

M = Mass of Earth

R = Distance between the center of earth and the object

So, in our case,

Answers

Answer:

0.1 kg or 100 g

Explanation:

The length of the wire = 0.5 m

the field magnitude = 0.98 T

the current through the wire = 2.0 A

magnetic force due to a wire carrying current is

F = [tex]IlB[/tex]

where

F is the force

[tex]I[/tex] is the current = 2 A

[tex]l[/tex] is the length of the wire

B is the magnetic field strength

F = 2 x 0.5 x 0.98 = 0.98 N

This force balances the weight of the mass

weight = mg

where m is the mass of the wire

g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^2

therefore, weight = m x 9.81 = 9.81m

In a photoelectric-effect experiment it is observed that no current flows unless the wavelength is less than 540 nmnm . Part A What is the work function of this material

Answers

Answer:

Φ = 36.84 × 10^(-20) J

Explanation:

In the photoelectric effect, the energy of the incoming photon is usually used in part to extract the photoelectron from the material (work function) and then the rest is converted into kinetic energy of the photoelectron which is given by the formula;

K_max = hf - Φ

where;

hf represents the energy of the incoming photon

h is the Planck's constant

f is the light frequency

Φ is the work function of the material

K_max is the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons.

From the question, we are told that no current flows unless the wavelength is less than 540 nm. This means that when the wavelength has this value, the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons is zero i.e K_max = 0. Thus the energy of the incoming photons is just enough to extract the photoelectrons from the material.

Thus,

hf - Φ = 0

hf = Φ - - - (1)

We are given the wavelength as;

λ = 540 nm = 540 × 10^(-9) m

Now, let's find the frequency of the light by using the relationship between frequency and wavelength. The equation is;

f = c/λ

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

f = (3 × 10^(8))/(540 × 10^(-9))

f = 5.56 × 10^(14) Hz

Thus, from equation 1,we can now find the work function;

Φ = hf

h is Planck's constant and has a value of 6.626 × 10^(-34) J.s

Thus;

Φ = 6.626 × 10^(-34) × 5.56 × 10^(14)

Φ = 36.84 × 10^(-20) J

The isotope (_90^234)Th has a half-life of 24days and decays to (_91^234)Pa. How long does it take for 90% of a sample of (_90^234)Th to decay to (_91^234)Pa?

Answers

Answer:

79.7 days

Explanation:

Half-life equation:

A = A₀ (½)^(t / T)

where A is the final amount,

A₀ is the initial amount,

t is the amount of time,

and T is the half life.

If 90% decays, then 10% is left.

A = A₀ (½)^(t / T)

0.1 A₀ = A₀ (½)^(t / 24)

0.1 = ½^(t / 24)

ln(0.1) = (t / 24) ln(0.5)

t ≈ 79.7 days

A. How many seconds does it take for the propeller to turn through 49.0?
t = 4.41x10^-3 S
B. Compute the propeller's angular velocity in rad/s
w = 194 rad/s

Answers

Answer:

a) 3.7 x 10^-3 s

b) 230.41 rad/s

Explanation:

The angular speed N = 2200 rpm (revolution per minute)

==> 2200/60 revolutions per sec = 36.67 rps

The total angle turned in one second = 36.67 x 360° = 13201.2°

if it takes 1 sec to revolve 13201.2°

then it will take t sec to rotate 49.0°

time t = 49/13201.2 = 3.7 x 10^-3 s

conversion to rad/s = 2πN/60 = (2 x 3.142 x 2200)/60 = 230.41 rad/s

White light containing wavelengths from 410 nm to 750 nm falls on a grating with 7800 slits/cm. Part APart complete How wide is the first-order spectrum on a screen 3.20 m away

Answers

Answer:

1.227 m

Explanation:

Given that

Minimum wavelength is 410 nm

Maximum wavelength is 750 nm

Grating is 7800 slits/cm

Distance is 3.2 m

To solve this question, we would use the formula

sin θ = λ/d

sin θ = (410*10^-9) / (0.01/7800)

Sin θ = 410*10^-9 / 1.282*10^-6

Sin θ = 0.32 and θ = 18.67 degrees

For the second wavelength = 750 nm

sin θ = [(0.32x750)/410]

sin θ = (240 / 410)

sin θ = 0.5853 or

θ = 35.8 degrees

And finally, the width of spectrum would be

3.2[tan 35.8 - tan 18.67]

3.2 * 0.3833

= 1.227 m

A golfer hits a 42 g ball, which comes down on a tree root and bounces straight up with an initial speed of 15.6 m/s. Determine the height the ball will rise after the bounce. Show all your work.

Answers

Answer:

12.2 m

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 15.6 m/s

v = 0 m/s

a = -10 m/s²

Find: Δy

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

(0 m/s)² = (15.6 m/s)² + 2 (-10 m/s²) Δy

Δy = 12.2 m

[tex] \LARGE{ \boxed{ \rm{ \green{Answer:}}}}[/tex]

Given,

The initial speed is 15.6 m/s The mass of the ball is 42g = 0.042kg

Finding the initial kinetic energy,

[tex]\large{ \boxed{ \rm{K.E. = \frac{1}{2}m {v}^{2}}}}[/tex]

⇛ KE = (1/2)mv²

⇛ KE = (1/2)(0.042)(15.6)²

⇛ KE = 5.11 J

|| ⚡By conservation of energy, the potential energy at the highest point will also be 5.11 J, since there is no kinetic energy at the highest point because the ball is not moving (we neglect energy lost due to air resistance, heat, sound, etc.) ⚡||

So, we have:

[tex] \large{ \boxed{ \rm{P.E. = mgh}}}[/tex]

⇛ h = PE/(mg)

⇛ h = 5.11 J /(0.042 × 9.8)

⇛ h = 12.41 m

✏The ball will rise upto a height of 12.41 m

A 1000 kg car experiences a net force of 9500 N while slowing down from 30 m/s to 16 m/s. How far does it travel while slowing down?

Answers

Answer:

33.89 m

Explanation:

We must first obtain the acceleration of the car from;

F=ma

Where

F= force= 9500 N

m= mass of the car= 1000kg

a= acceleration

a= F/m= 9500/1000

a= 9.5 m/s^2

From;

V^2=u^2 + 2as

Where;

V= final velocity

u= initial velocity

s= distance covered

a= acceleration

s= v^2 -u^2/2a

s= (30)^2 -(16)^2/2×9.5

s= 900 - 256/19

s= 644/19

s= 33.89 m

The distance is 33.89 m

The first step is to calculate the acceleration

F= ma

force= 9500N

mass= 1000 kg

9500= 1000 × a

a= 9500/1000

= 9.5 m/s

v²= u² + 2as

30²= 16² + 2(9.5)(s)

900= 256 + 19s

900-256= 19s

644= 19s

s= 644/19

s= 33.89 m

Hence the distance traveled by the car is 33.89 m
