Explain why water, with its high specific heat capacity, is utilized for heating systems such as hot-water radiators.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer in explanation

Explanation:

Water is mainly used as coolant in heating systems like hot-water radiators. The main function of water in such systems, is to absorb as much heat as possible, in order to decrease the temperature of the system and as a result cool it.

The specific heat capacity is the measure of heat energy that is required to raise the temperature of unit mass of a substance through 1 °C. In other words, specific heat capacity quantifies the amount of heat that can be stored by a unit mass of a substance having a degree rise in temperature.

Thus, the more specific heat a substance has, the more heat it can absorb from the hot system. Hence, the specific heat capacity of a coolant must be high.

This is the reason why water, with its high specific heat capacity, is utilized for heating systems, such as radiators.

Explanation:

Design a voltage divider to provide the following approximate voltages with respect to ground using a 30 V source: 8.18 V, 14.7 V, and 24.6 V. The current drain on the source must be limited to no more than 1 mA. The number of resistors, their values, and their wattage ratings must be specified. A schematic showing the circuit arrangement and resistor placement must be provided

Answers

Answer:

R₁ = 14.7 10³ Ω , R₂ = 8.18 10³ Ω ,  R₃ = 1.72 10³ Ω ,  R₄ = 5.4 10³ Ω    1/8 W resistor

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use a series circuit since the sum of the voltage on each resin is equal to the source voltage (V = 30 V)

Therefore we build a circuit with 4 resistors in series, in such a way that

   V = i R

let the voltage

1st resistance

         V = i R

         R₁ = V / i

         R₁ = 14.7 / 1 10⁻³

         R₁ = 14.7 10³ Ω

power is

        P = V i

        P = 14.7 1 10⁻³

        P = 14.7 10⁻³ W = 0.0147 W

a resistance of ⅛ W is indicated

2nd resistance

          R₂ = 8.18 / 1 10⁻³

          R₂ = 8.18 10³ Ω

Power

          P = 8.18 1 10⁻³

          P = 0.00818W

a 1/8 W resistor

3rd resistance

this resistance is calculated in such a way that

          V₁ + V₂ + V₃ = 24.6

          V₃ = 24.6 - V₁ -V₂

          V₃ = 24.6 - 14.7 - 8.18

          V₃ = 1.72 V

          R₃ = 1.72 / 1 10⁻³

          R₃ = 1.72 10³ Ω

           

power

          P = Vi

          P = 1.72 10⁻³

          P = 0.00172 W

a resistance of ⅛ W

To obtain the voltage of 24.6 we use this three resistors together

4th resistance

The value of this resistance is calculated so that the sum of all the voltages reaches the source voltage

           30 = V₁ + V₂ + V₃ + V₄

           V₄ = 30 - V₁ -V₂ -V₃

           V₄ = 30 -14.7 - 8.18 - 1.72

           V₄ = 5.4 V

          R₄ = 5.4 / 1 10⁻³

          R₄ = 5.4 10³ Ω

Power

         P = V i

         P = 5.4 10⁻³

         P = 0.0054 W

⅛ W resistance

The values ​​of these resistance are commercially

Let's check the consumption of the circuit

  R_total = R₁ + R₂ + R₃ + R₄

  R_total = (14.7 + 8.18 + 1.72 + 5.4) 10³

   R_total = 30 10³

the current circulating in the circuit is

     i = V / R_total

     i = 30/30 10³

     i = 1 10⁻³ A

therefore it is within the order requirement.

To stay within safety codes, the wire cannot stretch more than 5.0 cm.

Answers

Answer:

4.5x 10^ -9m

Explanation:

See attached file

Answer:

The radius is  [tex]r_{min} = 0.00226 \ m[/tex]

Explanation:

   From the question we are told that

      The  elastic limit(stress) is [tex]\sigma = 5.0*10^{8} \ N /m^2[/tex]

      The length is  [tex]L = 4.0 \ m[/tex]

      The weight of the commercial sign is    [tex]F_s = 8000 \ N[/tex]

       The maximum extension of the wire is  [tex]\Delta L = 5.0 \ cm = 0.05 \ m[/tex]

Generally the elastic limit of an alloy (stress) is is mathematically represented as

            [tex]\sigma = \frac{ F_s }{ A }[/tex]

Where A is the cross-sectional area of the wire which is mathematically represented as

         [tex]A = \pi r^2[/tex]

here [tex]r = r_{min}[/tex] which is the minimum radius of the wire that support the commercial sign

So

          [tex]\sigma = \frac{ F_s }{ \pi r_{min}^2 }[/tex]

=>       [tex]r_{min} = \sqrt{\frac{F_s}{\sigma * \pi} }[/tex]

substituting values

             [tex]r_{min} = \sqrt{\frac{8000}{ 5.0* 10^8 * 3.142} }[/tex]

           [tex]r_{min} = 0.00226 \ m[/tex]

Total energy with frequency (E) = 6.06×10⁻²⁶ J

Number of photons emit per second = 11,500 / 6.06×10⁻²⁶

Number of photons emit per second = 1897.689 × 10²⁶

Number of photons emit per second = 1.9 × 10²⁹  (Approx)

A city of punjab has 15 percemt chance of wet weather on any given day. What is probability that it will take a week for it three wet weather on 3 sepaprate days? Also find it standard deviation

Answers

Answer:

The probability that it will take a week for it three wet weather on 3 separate days is 0.06166 and its standard deviation is 0.9447

Explanation:

We are given that A city of Punjab has 15 percent chance of wet weather on any given day.

So, Probability of wet weather = 0.15

Probability of not being a wet weather = 1-0.15 =0.85

We are supposed to find probability that it will take a week for it three wet weather on 3 separate days

Total number of days in a week = 7

We will use binomial over here

n = 7

p =probability of failure = 0.15

q = probability of success=0.85

r=3

Formula :[tex]P(r=3)=^nC_r p^r q ^{n-r}[/tex]

[tex]P(r=3)=^{7}C_{3} (0.15)^3 (0.85)^{7-3}\\P(r=3)=\frac{7!}{3!(7-3)!} (0.15)^3 (0.85)^{7-3}\\P(r=3)=0.06166[/tex]

Standard deviation =[tex]\sqrt{n \times p \times q}[/tex]

Standard deviation =[tex]\sqrt{7 \times 0.15 \times 0.85}[/tex]

Standard deviation =0.9447

Hence The probability that it will take a week for it three wet weather on 3 separate days is 0.06166 and its standard deviation is 0.9447

At the pizza party you and two friends decide to go to Mexico City from El Paso, TX where y'all live. You volunteer your car if everyone chips in for gas. Someone asks how much the gas will cost per person on a round trip. Your first step is to call your smarter brother to see if he'll figure it out for you. Naturally he's too busy to bother, but he does tell you that it is 2015 km to Mexico City, there's 11 cents to the peso, and gas costs 5.8 pesos per liter in Mexico. You know your car gets 21 miles to the gallon, but we still don't have a clue as to how much the trip is going to cost (in dollars) each person in gas ($/person).

Answers

Answer:

cost_cost = $ 96

Explanation:

In this exercise we have units in the groin system and the SI system, to avoid problems let's reduce everything to the SI system

   

         performance = 21 miles / gallon (1,609 km / 1 mile) (1 gallon / 3,785 l)

         perfomance= 8,927 km / l

now let's use a direct rule of proportions (rule of three). If a liter travels 8,927 km, how many liters are needed to travel the 2015 km

          #_gasoline = 2015 km (1l / 8.927 km) = 225.72 liters

Now let's find the total cost of fuel. Ns indicates that $ 0.11 = 1 peso and the liter of fuel costs 5.8 pesos

            cost_litre = 5.8 peso ($ 0.11 / 1 peso) = $ 0.638

 

             cost_gasoline = #_gasoline   cost_litro

             cost_gasoline = 225.72   0.638

             cost_gasoline = $ 144

This cost is for the one way trip, the total round trip cost is

             cost_total = 2 cost_gasoline

             cost_total = $ 288

Now let's look for the cost in the vehicle, you and two people will go, for which a total of 3 people will go, so the cost per person is

                cost_person = total_cost / #_people

                cost_person = 288/3

                cost_cost = $ 96

A student uses a spring scale attached to a textbook to compare the static and kinetic friction between the textbook and the top of a lab
table. If the scale measures 1,580 g while the student is pulling the sliding book along the table, which reading on the scale could have been
possible at the moment the student overcame the static friction? (1 point)
1,860 g
820 g
1,580 g
1,140 g

Answers

Answer:

1,860 g

Explanation:

In a system, the coefficient of static friction is usually higher than the coefficient of kinetic friction. This means that the kinetic friction is usually less than the static friction. From the question, since the book is already sliding, it means that kinetic friction is the friction in play. This means that before the reading on the scale that could have been possible at the moment the student overcame the static friction must be greater than the reading on the scale during sliding. The only option above 1580 g is 1860 g

What is the magnitude of the free-fall acceleration at a point that is a distance 2R above the surface of the Earth, where R is the radius of the Earth

Answers

Answer:

g' = g/9 = 1.09 m/s²

Explanation:

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,

R = R + 2 R = 3 R

Therefore,

g' = GM/(3R)²

g' = (1/9) GM/R²

using equation 1:

g' = g/9

g' = (9.8 m/s)/9

g' = 1.09 m/s²

Answer:

The magnitude of the free-fall acceleration [tex]g_h = 1.09m/s^2[/tex]

Explanation:

Surface of earth,

[tex]g = \frac{GM}{R^2}\\\\g = 9.8m/s^2[/tex]

free fall acceleration at height h,

[tex]g_h = \frac{GM}{(R+h)^2}[/tex]

where

G = gravitational constant

R = Radius of earth

M = mass of earth

therefore,

[tex]\frac{g_h}{g} = \frac{\frac{GM}{(R+h)^2}}{\frac{GM}{R^2}}\\\\ \frac{g_h}{g} = \frac{R^2}{(R+h)^2}\\\\g_h = g\frac{R^2}{(R+h)^2}[/tex]

Where height h = 2R

[tex]g_h = 9.8\frac{R^2}{(R+2R)^2}\\\\g_h = 9.8\frac{R^2}{(3R)^2}\\\\g_h = 9.8\frac{R^2}{(9R^2}\\\\g_h = 1.09m/s^2[/tex]

v₀ = 40 m/s

a = -10 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

0 m = (40 m/s) t + ½ (-10 m/s²) t²

0 = 40t − 5t²

0 = 5t (8 − t)

t = 0 or 8

Given in the x direction:

v₀ = 20 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

Answer:

 v_{1fy} = - 0.4549 m / s

Explanation:

This is an exercise of conservation of the momentum, for this we must define a system formed by the two balls, so that the forces during the collision have internal and the momentum is conserved

initial. Before the crash

      p₀ = m v₁₀

final. After the crash

      [tex]p_{f}[/tex] = m [tex]v_{1f}[/tex] + m v_{2f}

Recall that velocities are a vector so it has x and y components

       p₀ = p_{f}

we write this equation for each axis

X axis

       m v₁₀ = m v_{1fx} + m v_{2fx}

       

Y Axis  

       0 = -m v_{1fy} + m v_{2fy}

the exercise tells us the initial velocity v₁₀ = 1.83 m / s, the final velocity v_{2f} = 1.15, let's use trigonometry to find its components

      sin 23.3 = v_{2fy} / v_{2f}

      cos 23.3 = v_{2fx} / v_{2f}

      v_{2fy} = v_{2f} sin 23.3

      v_{2fx} = v_{2f} cos 23.3

we substitute in the momentum conservation equation

       m v₁₀ = m v_{1f} cos θ + m v_{2f} cos 23.3

       0 = - m v_{1f} sin θ + m v_{2f} sin 23.3

      1.83 = v_{1f} cos θ + 1.15 cos 23.3

       0 = - v_{1f} sin θ + 1.15 sin 23.3

      1.83 = v_{1f} cos θ + 1.0562

        0 = - v_{1f} sin θ + 0.4549

     v_{1f} sin θ = 0.4549

     v_{1f}  cos θ = -0.7738

we divide these two equations

      tan θ = - 0.5878

      θ = tan-1 (-0.5878)

       θ = -30.45º

we substitute in one of the two and find the final velocity of the incident ball

        v_{1f} cos (-30.45) = - 0.7738

        v_{1f} = -0.7738 / cos 30.45

        v_{1f} = -0.8976 m / s

the component and this speed is

       v_{1fy} = v1f sin θ

       v_{1fy} = 0.8976 sin (30.45)

       v_{1fy} = - 0.4549 m / s

Answers

Answer:

K = 227.04 W/m.°C

Explanation:

First we need to find the heat required to melt the ice:

q = m H

where,

q = heat required = ?

m = mass of the ice = 8.5 g = 8.5 x 10⁻³ kg

H = Latent heat of fusion of ice = 3.34 x 10⁵ J/kg

Therefore,

q = (8.5 x 10⁻³ kg)(3.34 x 10⁵ J/kg)

q = 2839 J

Now, we find the heat transfer rate through rod:

Q = q/t

where,

t = time = (10 min)(60 s/1 min) = 600 s

Q = Heat Transfer Rate = ?

Therefore,

Q = 2839 J/600 s

Q = 4.73 W

From Fourier's Law of Heat Conduction:

Q = KA ΔT/L

where,

K = Thermal Conductivity = ?

A = cross sectional area = 1.25 cm² = 1.25 x 10⁻⁴ m²

L = Length of rod = 60 cm = 0.6 m

ΔT = Difference in temperature = 100°C - 0°C = 100°C

Therefore,

4.73 W = K(1.25 X 10⁻⁴ m²)(100°C)/0.6 m

K = (4.73 W)/(0.0208 m.°C)

K = 227.04 W/m.°C

g A projectile is fired from the ground at an angle of θ = π 4 toward a tower located 600 m away. If the projectile has an initial speed of 120 m/s, find the height at which it strikes the tower

Answers

Answer:

The projectile strikes the tower at a height of 354.824 meters.

Explanation:

The projectile experiments a parabolic motion, which consist of a horizontal motion at constant speed and a vertical uniformly accelerated motion due to gravity. The equations of motion are, respectively:

Horizontal motion

[tex]x = x_{o}+v_{o}\cdot t \cdot \cos \theta[/tex]

Vertical motion

[tex]y = y_{o} + v_{o}\cdot t \cdot \sin \theta +\frac{1}{2} \cdot g \cdot t^{2}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]x_{o}[/tex], [tex]x[/tex] - Initial and current horizontal position, measured in meters.

[tex]y_{o}[/tex], [tex]y[/tex] - Initial and current vertical position, measured in meters.

[tex]v_{o}[/tex] - Initial speed, measured in meters per second.

[tex]g[/tex] - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

[tex]t[/tex] - Time, measured in seconds.

The time spent for the projectile to strike the tower is obtained from first equation:

[tex]t = \frac{x-x_{o}}{v_{o}\cdot \cos \theta}[/tex]

If [tex]x = 600\,m[/tex], [tex]x_{o} = 0\,m[/tex], [tex]v_{o} = 120\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex] and [tex]\theta = \frac{\pi}{4}[/tex], then:

A 5.0-µC point charge is placed at the 0.00 cm mark of a meter stick and a -4.0-µC point charge is placed at the 50 cm mark. At what point on a line joining the two charges is the electric field due to these charges equal to zero?

Answers

Answer:

Electric field is zero at point 4.73 m

Explanation:

Given:

Charge place = 50 cm  = 0.50 m

change q1 = 5 µC

change q2 = 4 µC

Computation:

electric field zero calculated by:

[tex]E1 =k\frac{q1}{r^2} \\\\E2 =k\frac{q2}{R^2} \\\\[/tex]

Where electric field is zero,

First distance = x

Second distance = (x-0.50)

So,

E1 = E2

[tex]k\frac{q1}{r^2}=k\frac{q2}{R^2} \\\\[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5}{x^2}=\frac{4}{(x-50)^2} \\\\[/tex]

x = 0.263 or x = 4.73

So,

Electric field is zero at point 4.73 m

The maximum gauge pressure in a hydraulic system is 15 atm. What is the largest mass that could be lifted by this system if the diameter of the piston is 65 cm

Answers

Answer:

The maximum force that can be lifted by this system is  51,478.4 kg

Explanation:

Given;

maximum gauge pressure of the hydraulic system, Hp = 15 atm = 1.52 x 10⁶ N/m²

diameter of the piston, d = 65 cm = 0.65 m

The maximum gauge pressure of the piston is given as;

[tex]Hp = \frac{F}{A}[/tex]

Where;

F is the maximum force of the piston

A is the area of the piston

[tex]A = \pi (\frac{0.65}{2} )^2\\\\A = 0.3319 \ m^2[/tex]

F = Hp x A

F = 1.52 x 10⁶N/m² x 0.3319m²

F = 504488 N

Force is given as;

F = mg

m = F/g

m = 504488/9.8

m = 51,478.4 kg

Therefore, the maximum force that can be lifted by this system is  51,478.4 kg

How many turns of wire are needed in a circular coil 13 cmcm in diameter to produce an induced emf of 5.6 VV

Answers

Answer:

Number of turns of wire(N) = 3,036 turns (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Diameter = 13 Cm

emf = 5.6 v

Note:

The given question is incomplete, unknown information is as follow.

Magnetic field increases = 0.25 T in 1.8 (Second)

Find:

Number of turns of wire(N)

Computation:

radius (r) = 13 / 2 = 6.5 cm = 0.065 m

Area = πr²

Area = (22/7)(0.065)(0.065)

Area = 0.013278 m²

So,

emf = (N)(A)(dB / dt)

5.6 = (N)(0.013278)(0.25 / 1.8)

5.6 = (N)(0.013278)(0.1389)

N = 3,036.35899

Number of turns of wire(N) = 3,036 turns (Approx)

One long wire carries a current of 30 A along the entire x axis. A second long wire carries a current of 40 A perpendicular to the xy plane and passes through the point (0, 4, 0) m. What is the magnitude of the resultant magnetic field at the point y

Answers

Complete question is;

One long wire carries a current of 30 A along the entire x axis. A second long wire carries a current of 40 A perpendicular to the xy plane and passes through the point (0, 4, 0) m. What is the magnitude of the resulting magnetic field at the point y = 2.0 m on the y axis?

Answer:

B_net = 50 × 10^(-7) T

Explanation:

We are told that the 30 A wire lies on the x-plane while the 40 A wire is perpendicular to the xy plane and passes through the point (0,4,0).

This means that the second wire is 4 m in length on the positive y-axis.

Now, we are told to find the magnitude of the resulting magnetic field at the point y = 2.0 m on the y axis.

This means that the position we want to find is half the length of the second wire.

Thus, at this point the net magnetic field is given by;

B_net = √[(B1)² + (B2)²]

Where B1 is the magnetic field due to the first wire and B2 is the magnetic field due to the second wire.

Now, formula for magnetic field due to very long wire is;

B = (μ_o•I)/(2πR)

Thus;

B1 = (μ_o•I_1)/(2πR_1)

Also, B2 = (μ_o•I_2)/(2πR_2)

Now, putting the equation of B1 and B2 into the B_net equation, we have;

B_net = √[((μ_o•I_1)/(2πR_1))² + ((μ_o•I_2)/(2πR_2))²]

Now, factorizing out some common terms, we have;

B_net = (μ_o/2π)√[((I_1)/R_1))² + ((I_2)/R_2))²]

Now,

μ_o is a constant and has a value of 4π × 10^(−7) H/m

I_1 = 30 A

I_2 = 40 A

Now, as earlier stated, the point we are looking for is 2 metres each from wire 2 end and wire 1.

Thus;

R_1 = 2 m

R_2 = 2 m

So, let's calculate B_net.

B_net = ((4π × 10^(−7))/2π)√[(30/2)² + (40/2)²]

B_net = 50 × 10^(-7) T

Of the farsighted people, rank them by the power of the lens needed to correct their hyperopic vision. Rank these from largest to smallest power required.

1. Berenice
2. Avishka
3. Francesca
4. Edouard

Answers

Answer:

1. Berenice  = 0.67 D

2. Avishka  = 1.50 D

3. Francesca  = 2.00 D

4. Edouard = 2.75 D

Explanation:

The farsighted people are those with near point greater than 25 cm.

They include Avishka, Berenice, Edouard and Francisca.

A converging lens is needed to correct farsightedness, or hyperopia, therefore, the focal length, f, is positive. The image formed is virtual and on the same side of the lens. Thus the image distance is negative

From the lens formula, 1/f = 1/v  1/u; but v is negative

Therefore, 1/f = 1/u - 1/v

But, power of a lens = 1/f in meters.

Therefore,  P =  1/u - 1/v

For Avishka, u = 25 cm or 0.25 m, v = 0.4 m

P = 1/ 0.25 - 1/0.4 = 1.5 D

For Berenice, u = 0.25 m, v = 0.3 m

P = 1/0.25 - 1/0.30 =0.7 D

For Edouard, u = 0.25 m, v = 0.80 m

P = 1/0.25 - 1/0.80 =2.75 D

For Francesca, u = 0.25 m, v = 0.50 m

P = 1/0.25 - 1/0.5 = 2.0 D

When The farsighted people are those with a near point greater than 25cm.

Berenice is = 0.67 D

Avishka is = 1.50 D

Francesca is = 2.00 D

Edouard is = 2.75 D

What is Hyperopic Vision?

When The farsighted people are those with a near point greater than 25 cm. Then, They include Avishka, Berenice, Edouard, and also Francisca.

Also, A converging lens is needed to correct farsightedness, or hyperopia, thus, When the focal length, f, is positive. Also, The image formed is virtual and also on the same side of the lens. hence the image distance is negative.

Also, From the lens formula, 1/f = 1/v 1/u; but v is negative

Thus, 1/f = 1/u - 1/v

But, when the power of a lens = 1/f in meters.

Thus, P = 1/u - 1/v

For Avishka, u = 25 cm or 0.25 m, v = 0.4 m

After that, P = 1/ 0.25 - 1/0.4 = 1.5 D

Then, For Berenice, u = 0.25 m, v = 0.3 m

Now, P = 1/0.25 - 1/0.30 =0.7 D

For Edouard, u = 0.25 m, v is = 0.80 m

Then, P = 1/0.25 - 1/0.80 is =2.75 D

Now, For Francesca, u = 0.25 m, v is = 0.50 m

Therefore, P = 1/0.25 - 1/0.5 = 2.0 D

If a sample emits 2000 counts per second when the detector is 1 meter from the sample, how many counts per second would be observed when the detector is 3 meters from the sample?
Using the sample in above question how many counts per second would be observed when the detector is 10 meters away from the sample?

Answers

Answer:

At 3 meter distance, the per-second count is 222.22 and at a 10 meter distance, the per-second count is 20.

Explanation:

The number of particles (N)  counts are inversely proportional to the distance between the source and the detector.  

By using the below formula we can find the number of counts.

[tex]N2 = \frac{(D1)^2}{(D2)^2} \times N1 \\N1 = 2000 \\D 1 = 1 \ meter \\D2 = 3 \\[/tex]

The number of count per second, when the distance is 3 meters.

[tex]= \frac{1}{3^2} \times 2000 \\= 222.22[/tex]

Number of count per second when the distance is 10 meters.

[tex]= \frac{1}{10^2} \times 2000 \\= 20[/tex]

Q9 A physics book slides off a horizontal tabletop with a speed of 1.10 m/s. It strikes the floor in 0.350s. ignore air resistance. Find (a) the height of the tabletop above the floor; (b) the horizontal distance from the edge of the table to the point where the book strikes the floor; (c) the horizontal and vertical components of the book's velocity, and the magnitude and direction of its velocity, just before the book reaches the floor.

Answers

Answer:

(a) 0.613 m

(b) 0.385 m

(c) vₓ = 1.10 m/s, vᵧ = 3.50 m/s

v = 3.68 m/s², θ = 72.6° below the horizontal

Explanation:

(a)  Take down to be positive.

Given in the y direction:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 10 m/s²

t = 0.350 s

Find: Δy

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δy = (0 m/s) (0.350 s) + ½ (10 m/s²) (0.350 s)²

Δy = 0.613 m

(b) Given in the x direction:

v₀ = 1.10 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 0.350 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (1.10 m/s) (0.350 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (0.350 s)²

Δx = 0.385 m

(c) Find: vₓ and vᵧ

vₓ = aₓt + v₀ₓ

vₓ = (0 m/s²) (0.350 s) + 1.10 m/s

vₓ = 1.10 m/s

vᵧ = aᵧt + v₀ᵧ

vᵧ = (10 m/s²) (0.350 s) + 0 m/s

vᵧ = 3.50 m/s

The magnitude is:

v² = vₓ² + vᵧ²

v = 3.68 m/s²

The direction is:

θ = atan(vᵧ / vₓ)

θ = 72.6° below the horizontal

What is the observed wavelength of the 656.3 nm (first Balmer) line of hydrogen emitted by a galaxy at a distance of 2.40 x 108 ly

Answers

Answer:

λ = 667.85 nm

Explanation:

Let f be the frequency detected by the observer

Let v be the speed at which the observer is moving.

Now, when the direction at which the observer is moving is away from the source, we have the frequency as;

f = f_o√((1 - β)/(1 + β))

From wave equations, we know that the wavelength is inversely proportional to the frequency. Thus, wavelength is now;

λ = λ_o√((1 + β)/(1 - β))

Where, β = Hr/c

H is hubbles constant which has a value of 0.0218 m/s • ly

c is speed of light = 3 × 10^(8) m/s

r is given as 2.40 x 10^(8) ly

Thus,

β = (0.0218 × 2.4 x 10^(8))/(3 × 10^(8))

β = 0.01744

Since we are given λ_o = 656.3 nm

Then;

λ = 656.3√((1 + 0.01744)/(1 - 0.01744))

λ = 667.85 nm

An electromagnetic flowmeter is useful when it is desirable not to interrupt the system in which the fluid is flowing (e.g. for the blood in an artery during heart surgery).
