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?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

6000 counts per second

Explanation:

If a sample emits 2000 counts per second when the detector is 1 meter from the sample, then;

2000 counts per second = 1 meter ... 1

In order to know the number of counts per second that would be observed when the detector is 3 meters from the sample, we will have;

x count per second = 3 meter ... 2

Solving the two expressions simultaneously for x we will have;

2000 counts per second = 1 meter

x counts per second = 3 meter

Cross multiply to get x

2000 * 3 = 1* x

6000 = x

This shows that 6000 counts per second would be observed when the detector is 3 meters from the sample

If the rods with diameters and lengths listed below are made of the same material, which will undergo the largest percentage length change given the same applied force along its length?a. d, 3L b. 3d, L c. 2d, 2L d. 4d, L

Answers

Answer:

The highest percentage of change corresponds to the thinnest rod, the correct answer is a

Explanation:

For this exercise we are asked to change the length of the bar by the action of a force applied along its length, in this case we focus on the expression of longitudinal elasticity

               F / A = Y ΔL/L

where F / A is the force per unit length, ΔL / L is the fraction of the change in length, and Y is Young's modulus.

In this case the bars are made of the same material by which Young's modulus is the same for all

              ΔL / L = (F / A) / Y

the area of ​​the bar is the area of ​​a circle

               A = π r² = π d² / 4

               A = π / 4 d²

we substitute

              ΔL / L = (F / Y) 4 /πd²

changing length

               ΔL = (F / Y 4 /π) L / d²

The amount between paracentesis are all constant in this exercise, let's look for the longitudinal change

a) values ​​given d and 3L

               ΔL = cte 3L / d²

               ΔL = cte L /d²  3

To find the percentage, we must divide the change in magnitude by its value and multiply by 100.

                ΔL/L % = [(F /Y  4/π 1/d²) 3L ] / 3L 100

                ΔL/L  % = cte 100%

 

b) 3d and L value, we repeat the same process as in part a

               ΔL = cte L / 9d²

               ΔL = cte L / d² 1/9

               ΔL / L% = cte 100/9

               ΔL / L% = cte 11%

   

c) 2d and 2L value

               ΔL = (cte L / d ½ )/ 2L

               ΔL/L% = cte 100/4

               ΔL/L% = cte 25%

d) value 4d and L

               ΔL = cte L / d² 1/16

                ΔL/L % = cte 100/16

                ΔL/L % = cte 6.25%

   

The highest percentage of change corresponds to the thinnest rod, the correct answer is a

An ac generator consists of a coil with 40 turns of wire, each with an area of 0.06 m2 . The coil rotates in a uniform magnetic field B = 0.4 T at a constant frequency of 55 Hz. What is the maximum induced emf?

a. 625 V
b. 110 V
c. 421 V
d. 332 V
e. 200 V

Answers

Answer:

d. 332 V

Explanation:

Given;

number of turns in the wire, N = 40 turns

area of the coil, A = 0.06 m²

magnitude of the magnetic field, B = 0.4 T

frequency of the wave, f = 55 Hz

The maximum emf induced in the coil is given by;

E = NBAω

Where;

ω is angular velocity = 2πf

E = NBA(2πf)

E = 40 x 0.4 x 0.06 x (2 x π x 55)

E = 332 V

Therefore, the maximum induced emf in the coil is 332 V.

The correct option is "D"

d. 332 V

A string is stretched and fixed at both ends, 200 cm apart. If the density of the string is 0.015 g/cm, and its tension is 600 N, what is the fundamental frequency

Answers

Answer:

f₀ = 158.12 Hertz

Explanation:

The fundamental frequency of the string  f₀ is expressed as f₀ = V/4L where V is the speed experienced by the string.

[tex]V = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} }[/tex] where T is the tension in the string and  [tex]\mu[/tex] is the density of the string

Given T = 600N and [tex]\mu[/tex] = 0.015 g/cm  = 0.0015kg/m

[tex]V = \sqrt{\frac{600}{0.0015} }\\ \\V = \sqrt{400,000}\\ \\V = 632.46m/s[/tex]

The next is to get the length L of the string. Since the string is stretched and fixed at both ends, 200 cm apart, then the length of the string in metres is 2m.

L = 2m

Substituting the derived values into the formula f₀ = V/2L

f₀ = 632.46/2(2)

f₀ = 632.46/4

f₀ = 158.12 Hertz

Hence the fundamental frequency of the string is 158.12 Hertz

Copper Pot A copper pot with a mass of 2 kg is sitting at room temperature (20°C). If 200 g of boiling water (100°C) are put in the pot, after a few minutes the water and the pot come to the same temperature. What temperature is this in °C?

Answers

Answer:

The final temperature is 61.65 °C

Explanation:

mass of copper pot [tex]m_{c}[/tex] = 2 kg

temperature of copper pot [tex]T_{c}[/tex] = 20 °C  (the pot will be in thermal equilibrium with the room)

specific heat capacity of copper [tex]C_{c}[/tex]= 385 J/kg-°C

The heat content of the copper pot = [tex]m_{c}[/tex][tex]C_{c}[/tex][tex]T_{c}[/tex] = 2 x 385 x 20 = 15400 J

mass of boiling water [tex]m_{w}[/tex] = 200 g = 0.2 kg

temperature of boiling water [tex]T_{w}[/tex] = 100 °C

specific heat capacity of water [tex]C_{w}[/tex] = 4182 J/kg-°C

The heat content of the water = [tex]m_{w}[/tex][tex]C_{w}[/tex][tex]T_{w}[/tex] = 0.2 x 4182 x 100 = 83640 J

The total heat content of the water and copper mix [tex]H_{T}[/tex] = 15400 + 83640 = 99040 J

This same heat is evenly distributed between the water and copper mass to achieve thermal equilibrium, therefore we use the equation

[tex]H_{T}[/tex] =   [tex]m_{c}[/tex][tex]C_{c}[/tex][tex]T_{f}[/tex] + [tex]m_{w}[/tex][tex]C_{w}[/tex]

where [tex]T_{f}[/tex] is the final temperature of the water and the copper

substituting values, we have

99040 = (2 x 385 x [tex]T_{f}[/tex]) + (0.2 x 4182 x

99040 = 770[tex]T_{f}[/tex] + 836.4

99040 = 1606.4[tex]T_{f}[/tex]

[tex]T_{f}[/tex] = 99040/1606.4 = 61.65 °C

A long straight solenoid has 800 turns. When the current in the solenoid is 2.90 amperes the average flux through each turn is 3.25×10−3Wb.
A. What is the inductance of the coil?
B. What must be the magnitude fo the rate of change of the current (di/dt) in order for the self-induced emf to equal 7.50 mV?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Relation between flux and inductance is as follows

φ = Li

where φ is flux associated with induction of inductance L when a current i flows through it

putting the values

3.25 x 10⁻³ x 800 = L x 2.9

L = .9 H

for induced emf in an induction , the relation is

emf induced = L di / dt

Putting the values

7.5 x 10⁻³ = .9 x di / dt

di / dt = 8.33 x 10⁻³ A / s

(a) The self inductance of the solenoid is 0.897 H.

(b) The magnitude of the rate of change of the current is 0.00836 A/s.

The given parameters;

number of turns, N = 800 turnscurrent in the solenoid, I = 2.9 flux through the solenoid, Ф = 3.25 x 10⁻³ Wb

The self inductance of the solenoid is calculated as follows;

[tex]emf = \frac{d\phi}{dt}\\\\emf = \frac{Ldi}{dt} \\\\d\phi = Ldi\\\\\phi = BA\\\\NBA = LI\\\\L = \frac{NBA}{I} \\\\L = \frac{N\phi}{I} \\\\L = \frac{800 \times 3.25\times 10^{-3}}{2.9} \\\\L = 0.897 \ H\\\\[/tex]

The magnitude of the rate of change of the current is calculated as follows;

[tex]emf = L \frac{di}{dt} \\\\\frac{di}{dt} \ = \frac{emf}{L} \\\\\frac{di}{dt} = \frac{7.5 \times 10^{-3}}{0.897} \\\\\frac{di}{dt} = 0.00836 \ A/s[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

1190 N

Explanation:

Force: This can be defined as the product of mass and velocity. The unit of force is Newton(N).

From the question,

F = ma................. Equation 1

Where F = average force, m = mass, a = acceleration.

But,

a = (v-u)/t................ Equation 2

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t = time.

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

F = m(v-u)/t.............. Equation 3

Given: m = 70 kg, v = 1.7 m/s, u = 0 m/s (from rest), t = 0.1 s.

Substitute into equation 3

F = 70(1.7-0)/0.1

F = 1190 N.

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

Calculate the wavelength of light that has its third minimum at an angle of 30.0º when falling on double slits separated by 3.00 µm.

Answers

Answer:

λ = 428.6 nm

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we must remember that the Young's double slit experiment is described by the expression :

d sin θ = m λ

For constructive interference , and:

d sin θ = (m + ½) λ          

For destructive interference , whereas d accounts for the distance between the slits, λ for the wavelength and m for an integer that describes the order of interference . Thus, for the given angle 30º, the distance between the slits is 3.00 μm or 3.00 10⁻⁶ m and the order of interference is 3; we therefore use the destructive interference equation  to compute the wavelength as shown below:

λ = 3x10⁻⁶ sin (30) / (3 +1/2)

λ = 4.286 10⁻⁷ m

Or in manometers:

λ = 428.6 nm

An 1,820 W toaster, a 1,420 W electric frying pan, and a 55 W lamp are plugged into the same outlet in a 15 A, 120 V circuit. (The three devices are in parallel when plugged into the same socket.)

Required:
a. What current is drawn by each device?
b. Will this combination blow the 15-A fuse?

Answers

Answer:

toaster- 15.1A

electric frying pan- 11.8 A

lamp- 0.5 A

b) The combination will blow the fuse.

Explanation:

When devices are connected in parallel, the potential difference across each of the devices is the same but the current through each is different. Hence;

V= 120 V

Power= IV

For the toaster;

I= 1820/120 = 15.1 A

For the electric frying pan;

I= 1420/120 = 11.8 A

For the lamp;

55/120 = 0.5 A

Total current = 15.1 +11.8 + 0.5 = 27.4 A

The combination will blow the fuse.

Explanation:    

step one:

Given data

power of toaster= 1,820 W  

power of electric frying pan= 1,420 W  

power of lamp= 55 W  

current of the outlet= 15 A

voltage of outlet = 120 V

step two

since all  three appliances are connected in parallel to the socket outlet, they will use the same voltage of 120 V and the currents will be different across each appliance,

Hence the current across the Toaster will be I₁

using P=I₁V we have

I₁= P/V

I₁= 1820/120 =  15.16 A

A. The current drawn by each device

the current across the  electric frying pan will be I₂

using P=I₂V we have

I₂= P/V

I₂= 1420/120 =  11.83 A

the current across the   lamp will be I₃

using P=I₃V we have

I₃= P/V

I₃= 55/120 =  0.45 A

therefore the total current drawn by all appliances will be

Total current = I₁+I₂+I₃= 15.16 +11.83+ 0.45= 27.44

B.  Will this combination blow the 15-A fuse?

27.44 A > 15 A by 45% ...and this will make fuse to blow

L is the inductance

I is the current flowing in the inductor

Given parameters

L = 20mH = 20×10^-3H

I = 5A

Required

Energy stored in the magnetic field.

E = 1/2 × 20×10^-3 × 5²

E = 1/2 × 20×10^-3 × 25

E = 10×10^-3 × 25

E = 0.01 × 25

E = 0.25Joules.

Hence the energy stored in the magnetic field of this inductor is 0.25Joules

Find the rms output voltage of the transformer

Answers

Answer:

8.28 V

Explanation:

Using,

N2/N1 = V2/V1.................. Equation 1

Where N2/N1 = Turn ratio of the transformer, V1 = primary/input voltage, V2 = output/secondary voltage

make V2 the subject of the equation

V2 = (N2/N1)V1............ Equation 2

Given: N2/N1 = 2:29 = 2/29, V1 = 120 V

The physics of wind instruments is based on the concept of standing waves. When the player blows into the mouthpiece, the column of air inside the instrument vibrates, and standing waves are produced. Although the acoustics of wind instruments is complicated, a simple description in terms of open and closed tubes can help in understanding the physical phenomena related to these instruments. For example, a flute can be described as an open-open pipe because a flutist covers the mouthpiece of the flute only partially. Meanwhile, a clarinet can be described as an open-closed pipe because the mouthpiece of the clarinet is almost completely closed by the reed.
1. Consider a pipe of length 80.0 cm open at both ends. What is the lowest frequency f of the sound wave produced when you blow into the pipe?
2. A hole is now drilled through the side of the pipe and air is blown again into the pipe through the same opening. The fundamental frequency of the sound wave generated in the pipe is now:______.
a. the same as before.
b. lower than before.
c. higher than before.
3. If you take the original pipe in Part A and drill a hole at a position half the length of the pipe, what is the fundamental frequency of the sound that can be produced in the pipe?
4. What frequencies, in terms of the fundamental frequency of the original pipe in Part A, can you create when blowing air into the pipe that has a hole halfway down its length?
4-1. Recall from the discussion in Part B that the standing wave produced in the pipe must have an antinode near the hole. Thus only the harmonics that have an antinode halfway down the pipe will still be present.
A. Only the odd multiples of the fundamental frequency.
B. Only the even multiples of the fundamental frequency.
C. All integer multiples of the fundamental frequency.
E. What length of open-closed pipe would you need to achieve the same fundamental frequency as the open pipe discussed in Part A?
A. Half the length of the open-open pipe.
B. Twice the length of the open-open pipe.
C. One-fourth the length of the open-open pipe.
D. Four times the length of the open-open pipe.
E. The same as the length of the open-open pipe.
F. What is the frequency of the first possible harmonic after the fundamental frequency in the open-closed pipe described in Part E?
F-1. Recall that possible frequencies of standing waves that can be generated in an open-closed pipe include only odd harmonics. Then the first possible harmonic after the fundamental frequency is the third
harmonic.

Answer:

1) f = 214 Hz , 2)  answer is c , 3) f = 428 Hz , 4)   f₂ = 428 Hz ,   f₃ = 643Hz

Explanation:

1) A tube with both ends open, the standing wave has a maximum amplitude and a node in its center, therefore

                L = λ / 2

               λ  = 2L

               λ  = 2 0.8

               λ  = 1.6 m

wavelength and frequency are related to the speed of sound (v = 343 m / s)

                v =λ  f

                f = v / λ  

                f = 343 / 1.6

                f = 214 Hz

2) In this case the air comes out through the open hole, so we can assume that the length of the tube is reduced

           λ' = 2 L ’

          as L ’<L₀

          λ' <λ₀

          f = v / λ'

          f' > fo

the correct answer is c

3) in this case the length is L = 0.40 m

          λ = 2 0.4 = 0.8 m

          f = 343 / 0.8

          f = 428 Hz

4) the different harmonics are described by the expression

         λ = 2L / n           n = 1, 2, 3

         λ₂ = L

         f₂ = 343 / 0.8

         f₂ = 428 Hz

         λ₃ = 2 0.8 / 3

         λ₃ = 0.533 m

         f₃ = 343 / 0.533

         f₃ = 643 Hz

4,1) as we have two maximums at the ends, all integer multiples are present

       the answer is C

E) the length of an open pipe created that has a wavelength of lam = 1.6 m is requested

in this pipe there is a maximum in the open part and a node in the closed part, so the expression

        L = λ / 4

        L = 1.6 / 4

        L = 0.4 m

the answer is C

F) in this type of pipe the general expression is

           λ = 4L / n         n = 1, 3, 5 (2n + 1)

therefore only odd values ​​can produce standing waves

           λ₃ = 4L / 3

           λ₃ = 4 0.4 / 3

           λ₃ = 0.533

           f₃ = 343 / 0.533

           f₃ = 643 Hz

Determine the value of the current in the solenoid so that the magnetic field at the center of the loop is zero tesla. Justify your answer.

Answers

Answer:

I will explain the concept of magnetic field and how it can be calculated.

Explanation:

The formula for magnetic field at the center of a loop is given as

B = μ[tex]_{o}[/tex]I / 2R

where B is the magnetic field

R is the radius of the loop

I is the current

and μ[tex]_{o}[/tex] is the magnetic permeability of free space which is a constant 4π × [tex]10^{-7}[/tex] newtons/ampere²

If the magnetic field at the center of the loop is 0, then μ[tex]_{o}[/tex]I = 0

I = 0 which means there will be no current flow in the loop.

2. The nuclear model of the atom held that
a. electrons were randomly spread through "a sphere of uniform positive
electrification."
b. matter was made of tiny electrically charged particles that were smaller than the
atom
C. matter was made of tiny, indivisible particles.
d. the atom had a dense, positively charged nucleus.​

Answers

Answer:

the atom had a dense, positively charged nucleus.​

Explanation:

Ernest Rutherford, based on the experiment carried out by two of his graduate students, established the authenticity of the nuclear model of the atom.

According to the nuclear model, an atom is made up of a dense positive core called the nucleus. Electrons are found to move round this nucleus in orbits. This is akin to the movement of the planets round the sun in the solar system.

Inside the wall of a house, an L-shaped section of hot-water pipe consists of three parts: a straight, horizontal piece 28.0 cm long, an elbow, and a straight vertical piece ℓ = 159 cm long. A stud and a second-story floorboard hold the ends of this section of copper pipe stationary. Find the magnitude and direction of the displacement of the pipe elbow when the water flow is turned on, raising the temperature of the pipe from 18.0°C to 40.2°C. (The coefficient of linear expansion of copper is

Answers

Answer:

The magnitude and direction are

7.638×10-4m

80.01°

Explanation:

We know that the coefficient of linear expansion for copper = 16.6×10^-6 m/m-C

ΔT = 40.2 - 18.0 = 28.5 C°

The expansion of horizontal pipe length can be calculated as

= (0.28)(16.6×10^-6)(28.5) = 13247×10^-8

= 0.0001325 m

The expansion of vertical pipe length = (1.28)(16.6×10^-6)(28.5) = 60557×10^-8 = 0.000752229 m

horizontal displacement = 0.1325 mm

= 1.356×10^-4m

vertical displacement = 0.75223mm

=7.5223×10-4m

size of total displacement can be calculated as

√(x²+y²)

Where x and y are vertical and horizontal displacement respectively

= √(0.1325)²+(0.75223)² =

= 0.7638 mm

= 7.638×10-4m

Angle below horizontal = arctan Θ

= 0.75223/0.1325

=5.6772

= arctan (5.6772)

= 80.01°

Therefore, the the magnitude and direction of the displacement of the pipe elbow when the water flow is turned at (7.638×10-4m) 0.7638 mm and 80.01°

Some stove tops are smooth ceramic for easy cleaning. If the ceramic is 0.630 cm thick and heat conduction occurs through an area of 1.45 ✕ 10−2 m2 at a rate of 500 J/s, what is the temperature difference across it (in °C)? Ceramic has the same thermal conductivity as glass and concrete brick.

Answers

Answer:

The temperature difference [tex]\Delta T = 258.6 \ ^ o\ C[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  thickness is [tex]\Delta x = 0.630 cm = 0.0063 m[/tex]

    The  area is  [tex]A = 1.45 *10^{-2 } \ m^2[/tex]

     The rate is  [tex]P = 500 J/s[/tex]

       The  thermal conductivity is  [tex]\sigma = 0.84J[\cdot s \cdot m \cdot ^oC ][/tex]

Generally the rate heat conduction mathematically represented as

       [tex]P = \sigma * A * \frac{\Delta T}{\Delta x }[/tex]

=>    [tex]\Delta T = \frac{P * \Delta x }{\sigma * A }[/tex]

=>     [tex]\Delta T = \frac{ 500 * 0.00630 }{ 0.84 * 1.45 *10^{-2} }[/tex]

=>    [tex]\Delta T = 258.6 \ ^ o\ C[/tex]

In 8,450 seconds, the number of radioactive nuclei decreases to 1/16 of the number present initially. What is the half-life (in s) of the material

Answers

Answer:

2113 seconds

Explanation:

The general decay equation is given as [tex]N = N_0e^{-\lambda t} \\\\[/tex], then;

[tex]\dfrac{N}{N_0} = e^{-\lambda t} \\[/tex] where;

[tex]N/N_0[/tex] is the fraction of the radioactive substance present = 1/16

[tex]\lambda[/tex] is the decay constant

t is the time taken for decay to occur = 8,450s

Before we can find the half life of the material, we need to get the decay constant first.

Substituting the given values into the formula above, we will have;

[tex]\frac{1}{16} = e^{-\lambda(8450)} \\\\Taking\ ln\ of \both \ sides\\\\ln(\frac{1}{16} ) = ln(e^{-\lambda(8450)}) \\\\\\ln (\frac{1}{16} ) = -8450 \lambda\\\\\lambda = \frac{-2.7726}{-8450}\\ \\\lambda = 0.000328[/tex]

Half life f the material is expressed as [tex]t_{1/2} = \frac{0.693}{\lambda}[/tex]

[tex]t_{1/2} = \frac{0.693}{0.000328}[/tex]

[tex]t_{1/2} = 2,112.8 secs[/tex]

Hence, the half life of the material is approximately 2113 seconds

In a physics lab, Asha is given a 11.5 kg uniform rectangular plate with edge lengths 62.9 cm by 46.9 cm . Her lab instructor requires her to rotate the plate about an axis perpendicular to its plane and passing through one of its corners, and then prepare a report on the project. For her report, Asha needs the plate's moment of inertia ???? with respect to given rotation axis. Calculate ???? .

Answers

Answer:

6.9kgm²

Explanation:

For an axis through the center of the rectangle, I = m[(w²+L²)/12

Using the parallel axis theorem, the added value of I = mR² = m[(w²/4 + L²/4]

Adding the 2 expressions,

I = (m/3)*(w²+L²)

I =6.95 kg∙m²

beam of white light goes from air into water at an incident angle of 58.0°. At what angles are the red (660 nm) and blue (470 nm) parts of the light refracted? (Enter your answer to at least one decimal place.) red ° blue °

Answers

Answer:

For red light= 39.7°

Blue light 39.2°

Explanation:

Given that refractive index for red light is 1.33 and that of blue light is 1.342

So angle of refraction for red light will be

Sinစi/ (sinစ2) =( nw)r/ ni

Sin 58° x 1.000293/1.33. =( sinစ2)r

0.64= sinစ2r

Theta2r = 39.7°

For blue light

Sinစi/ (sinစ2) =( nw)b/ ni

Sin 58° x 1.000293/1.342 =( sinစ2)b

0.632= sinစ2r

Theta2b= 39.19°

g Calculate the maximum wavelength of light that will cause the photoelectric effect for potassium. Potassium has work function 2.29 eV = 3.67 x 10–19 J.

Answers

Answer:

λ = 5.4196 10⁻⁷m,  λ = 541.96 nm    this is green ligh

Explanation:

The photoelectric effect was explained by Eintein assuming that the light was made up of particles called photons and these collided with the electrons taking them out of the material.

 

                     K = h f -Ф

where K is the kinetic energy of the ejected electrons, hf is the energy of the light quanta and fi is the work function of the material.

The speed of light is related to wavelength and frequency

                   c = λ / f

                  f = c /λ

we substitute

                K = h c / λ - Φ

for the case that they ask us the kinetic energy of the electons is zero (K = 0)

                 h c / λ = Ф

                λ = h c / Ф

we calculate

                 λ = 6.63 10⁻³⁴  3 10⁸ / 3.67 10⁻¹⁸

                 λ = 5.4196 10⁻⁷m

let's take nm

                lam = 541.96 nm

this is green light
