P-weight blocks D and E are connected by the rope which passes through pulley B and are supported by the isorectangular prism articulated to the ground at its vertex A, while vertex C is attached to the vertical cord fixed to the ground. If the coefficient of friction between the prism and the blocks is 0.4; determine the maximum angle that measures the inclination of the AC face with respect to the horizontal so that the system remains in equilibrium.
Answers
Answer:
21.8°
Explanation:
Let's call θ the angle between BC and the horizontal.
Draw a free body diagram for each block.
There are 4 forces acting on block D:
Weight force P pulling down,
Normal force N₁ pushing perpendicular to AB,
Friction force N₁μ pushing parallel up AB,
and tension force T pushing parallel up AB.
There are 4 forces acting on block E:
Weight force P pulling down,
Normal force N₂ pushing perpendicular to BC,
Friction force N₂μ pushing parallel to BC,
and tension force T pulling parallel to BC.
Sum of forces on D in the perpendicular direction:
∑F = ma
N₁ − P sin θ = 0
N₁ = P sin θ
Sum of forces on D in the parallel direction:
∑F = ma
T + N₁μ − P cos θ = 0
T = P cos θ − N₁μ
T = P cos θ − P sin θ μ
T = P (cos θ − sin θ μ)
Sum of forces on E in the perpendicular direction:
∑F = ma
N₂ − P cos θ = 0
N₂ = P cos θ
Sum of forces on E in the parallel direction:
∑F = ma
N₂μ + P sin θ − T = 0
T = N₂μ + P sin θ
T = P cos θ μ + P sin θ
T = P (cos θ μ + sin θ)
Set equal:
P (cos θ − sin θ μ) = P (cos θ μ + sin θ)
cos θ − sin θ μ = cos θ μ + sin θ
1 − tan θ μ = μ + tan θ
1 − μ = tan θ μ + tan θ
1 − μ = tan θ (μ + 1)
tan θ = (1 − μ) / (1 + μ)
Plug in values:
tan θ = (1 − 0.4) / (1 + 0.4)
θ = 23.2°
∠BCA = 45°, so the angle of AC relative to the horizontal is 45° − 23.2° = 21.8°.

An earthquake emits both S-waves and P-waves which travel at different speeds through the Earth. A P-wave travels at 9 000 m/s and an S-wave travels at 5 000 m/s. If P-waves are received at a seismic station 1.00 minute before an S-wave arrives, how far away is the earthquake center?
Answers
Assuming constant speeds, the P-wave covers a distance d in time t such that
9000 m/s = d/(60 t)
while the S-wave covers the same distance after 1 more minute so that
5000 m/s = d/(60(t + 1))
Now,
d = 540,000 t
d = 300,000(t + 1) = 300,000 t + 300,000
Solve for t in the first equation and substitute it into the second equation, then solve for d :
t = d/540,000
d = 300,000/540,000 d + 300,000
4/9 d = 300,000
d = 675,000
So the earthquake center is 675,000 m away from the seismic station.

F = 2.7×10¯⁶ N.
Explanation:
From the question given:
F = (9×10⁹ Nm/C²) (3.2×10¯⁹ C × 9.6×10¯⁹ C) /(0.32)²
Thus we can obtain the value value of F by carrying the operation as follow:
F = (9×10⁹) (3.2×10¯⁹ × 9.6×10¯⁹) /(0.32)²
F = 2.7648×10¯⁷ / 0.1024
F = 2.7×10¯⁶ N.
Therefore, the value of F is 2.7×10¯⁶ N.

Your favorite radio station broadcasts at a frequency of 91.5 MHz with a power of 11.5 kW. How many photons does the antenna of the station emit in each second?
Answers
Answer:
Number of photons emit per second = 1.9 × 10²⁹ (Approx)
Explanation:
Given:
Frequency = 91.5 MHz
Power = 11.5 Kw = 11,500 J/s
Find:
Number of photons emit per second
Computation:
Total energy with frequency (E) = hf
Total energy with frequency (E) = 6.626×10⁻³⁴ × 91.5×10⁶
Total energy with frequency (E) = 6.06×10⁻²⁶ J

A fixed 11.2-cm-diameter wire coil is perpendicular to a magnetic field 0.53 T pointing up. In 0.10 s , the field is changed to 0.24 T pointing down. What is the average induced emf in the coil?
Answers
Answer:
The average induced emf in the coil is 0.0286 V
Explanation:
Given;
diameter of the wire, d = 11.2 cm = 0.112 m
initial magnetic field, B₁ = 0.53 T
final magnetic field, B₂ = 0.24 T
time of change in magnetic field, t = 0.1 s
The induced emf in the coil is calculated as;
E = A(dB)/dt
where;
A is area of the coil = πr²
r is the radius of the wire coil = 0.112m / 2 = 0.056 m
A = π(0.056)²
A = 0.00985 m²
E = -0.00985(B₂-B₁)/t
E = 0.00985(B₁-B₂)/t
E = 0.00985(0.53 - 0.24)/0.1
E = 0.00985 (0.29)/ 0.1
E = 0.0286 V
Therefore, the average induced emf in the coil is 0.0286 V
We have that for the Question, it can be said that the average induced emf in the coil is
E=0.028565V
From the question we are told
A fixed 11.2-cm-diameter wire coil is perpendicular to a magnetic field 0.53 T pointing up. In 0.10 s , the field is changed to 0.24 T pointing down. What is the average induced emf in the coil?

If the distance from your eye's lens to the retina is shorter than for a normal eye, you will struggle to see objects that are
Answers
Answer:
far away
Explanation:
There are different types of eye defect ranging from short sightedness, longsighted, astigmatism, presbyopia etc.
If someone is only able to see close ranged object clearly but not far distant object, then such person is suffering from short sightedness or myopia. This occurs when the light rays entering the eye does not converge on the retina. Instead of converging on the retina, the light ray is formed on a point in front of the retina. This causes the distance from the eye's lens to the retina shorter compared to that of a normal eye. This eye defect is usually corrected using concave lens in order to diverge the rays thereby allowing it to focus on the retina.
Hence, if the distance from your eye's lens to the retina is shorter than for a normal eye, you will struggle to see objects that are far away (at a far distant).

When light of wavelength 233 nm shines on a metal surface the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons is 1.98 eV. What is the maximum wavelength (in nm) of light that will produce photoelectrons from this surface
Answers
Answer:
λmax = 372 nm
Explanation:
First we find the energy of photon:
E = hc/λ
where,
E = Energy of Photon = ?
λ = Wavelength of Light = 233 nm = 2.33 x 10⁻⁷ m
c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
h = Planks Constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s
Therefore,
E = (6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(2.33 x 10⁻⁷ m)
E = 8.5 x 10⁻¹⁹ J
Now, from Einstein's Photoelectric Equation:
E = Work Function + Kinetic Energy
8.5 x 10⁻¹⁹ J = Work Function + (1.98 eV)(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J/1 eV)
Work Function = 8.5 x 10⁻¹⁹ J - 3.168 x 10⁻¹⁹ J
Work Function = 5.332 x 10⁻¹⁹ J
Since, work function is the minimum amount of energy required to emit electron. Therefore:
Work Function = hc/λmax
λmax = hc/Work Function
where,
λmax = maximum wavelength of light that will produce photoelectrons = ?
Therefore,
λmax = (6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(5.332 x 10⁻¹⁹ J)
λmax = 3.72 x 10⁻⁷ m
λmax = 372 nm
An object is inside a room that has a constant temperature of 289 K. Via radiation, the object emits three times as much power as it absorbs from the room. What is the temperature (in kelvins) of the object
Answers
Answer:
T_object = 380.35 K
Explanation:
From Stefan–Boltzmann law, the power output is given by the formula:
P = σAT⁴
where;
σ is Stefan-Boltzmann constant
A is area of the radiating surface.
T is temperature of the body
Now, we are told that the power the object emitted is 3 times the power absorbed from the room.
Thus, we have;
P_e = 3P_a
Where P_e is power emitted and P_a is power absorbed.
So, we have;
σA(T_object)⁴ = 3σA (T_room)⁴
σA will cancel out to give;
(T_object)⁴ = 3(T_room)⁴
We are given T_room = 289 K
Thus;
(T_object)⁴ = 3 × 289⁴
(T_object) = ∜(3 × 289⁴)
T_object = 380.35 K
In Young's experiment a mixture of orange light (611 nm) and blue light (471 nm) shines on the double slit.

By how much and in what direction (toward or away from the slits) should the screen be moved, so that the centers of the first-order bright orange fringes just appear on the screen
Answers
Answer:
0.5639m
Explanation:
For a young double slit experiment the expression below gives the angular separation for m dark fringe having slit width d and wavelength λ
=sin⁻¹(mλ/d)
mλ /d =y/L
for the first order,
y= mλL/d
For ratio separation y₀/yD=1 and d= 1
y₀/yD= [mλ ₀L₀/d]/[mλD.LD./d]
1=λ ₀L₀/λD.LD.
λD.LD= λ ₀L₀
L₀= λD.LD/ λ ₀..............(1)
Then substitute the given values into (1) we have
L₀=471 *0.497/611
= 0.3831m
Distance by which the screen has to be moved towards the slit is

Answers
Answer:
a
[tex]\lambda = 1.667 nm[/tex]
b

Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The distance of separation is [tex]d = 0.220 \ mm = 0.00022 \ m[/tex]
The is distance of the screen from the slit is [tex]D = 2.60 \ m[/tex]
The distance between the central bright fringe and either of the adjacent bright [tex]y = 1.97 cm = 1.97 *10^{-2}\ m[/tex]
Generally the condition for constructive interference is
[tex]d sin \tha(\theta ) = n \lambda[/tex]
From the question we are told that small-angle approximation is valid here.
So [tex]sin (\theta ) = \theta[/tex]
=> [tex]d \theta = n \lambda[/tex]
=> [tex]\theta = \frac{n * \lambda }{d }[/tex]
Here n is the order of maxima and the value is n = 1 because we are considering the central bright fringe and either of the adjacent bright fringes
Generally the distance between the central bright fringe and either of the adjacent bright is mathematically represented as
[tex]y = D * sin (\theta )[/tex]
From the question we are told that small-angle approximation is valid here.
So
[tex]y = D * \theta[/tex]
=> [tex]\theta = \frac{ y}{D}[/tex]
So
[tex]\frac{n * \lambda }{d } = \frac{y}{D}[/tex]
[tex]\lambda =\frac{d * y }{n * D}[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]\lambda = \frac{0.00022 * 1.97*10^{-2} }{1 * 2.60 }[/tex]
[tex]\lambda = 1.667 *10^{-6}[/tex]
[tex]\lambda = 1.667 nm[/tex]
In the b part of the question we are considering the next set of bright fringe so n= 2
Hence
[tex]dsin (\theta ) = n \lambda[/tex]
[tex]\theta = sin^{-1}[\frac{ n * \lambda }{d} ][/tex]
[tex]\theta = sin^{-1}[\frac{ 2 * 1667 *10^{-9}}{ 0.00022} ][/tex]
[tex]\theta = 0.8681^o[/tex]

[tex]\theta = sin ^{-1} [\frac{1}{n_i} ][/tex]
substituting values
[tex]\theta = sin ^{-1} [\frac{1}{131} ][/tex]
[tex]\theta = 49.76^o[/tex]
Using SOHCAHTOA rule we have that
[tex]tan \theta = \frac{ r}{d}[/tex]
=> [tex]r = d * tan \theta[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]r = 2.7 * tan (49.76)[/tex]
[tex]r = 3.1905 \ m[/tex]

To a person swimming 0.80 m below the water surface of a swimming pool, the diving board directly overhead appears to be a height of 5.20 m above the swimmer. What is the actual height of the diving board above the water surface
Answers
Answer:
The actual height is 3.308 m.
Explanation:
The person is swimming below the water surface at distance = 0.80 m
The height of the diving board appears at a distance or height = 5.20 m
Now we have to find the actual distance of the diving board from the water surface.
We know the refractive index of water is 1.33.
Therefore, the actual height = (Distance that appears – distance below the water surface) / Refractive index.
The actual height = ( 5.20 - 0.80 ) / 1.33 = 3.308 m

b. Third Law entropy
Explanation:
Third law entropy: In physics, the term "third law entropy" or "the third law of thermodynamics" states that the specific entropy of a particular system at "absolute zero" is considered as a "well-defined constant". It occurs because any system at "zero temperature" tends to exists or persists in its "ground state" in order for the entropy to be determined or described only by the "degeneracy" of the given ground state.

Vs and Vp are the emf in the secondary and primary coil respectively
Ns and Np are the number if turns in the secondary and primary coil respectively
Ip and Is are the currents in the secondary and primary coil respectively
Since the are all equal to each other, then we can equate any teo of the expression as shown;

Given parameters
Np = 500-turns
Ns = 2000-turns
Is = 3.0Amp

Current in the primary coil (Ip)
Using the relationship [tex]\dfrac{N_s}{N_p} = \dfrac{I_p}{I_s}[/tex]
[tex]I_p = \dfrac{N_sI_s}{N_p}[/tex]
[tex]I_p = \dfrac{2000*3}{500} \\\\I_p = \frac{6000}{500}\\ \\I_p = 12A\\[/tex]
Hence the current in the primary coil is 12Amp

n is number of free electrons per unit volume
Thus;
238732.44 = n(1.6 × 10^(-19) × 1.7 × 10^(-5))
238732.44 = (2.72 × 10^(-24))n

so that in 9.02 s, it will have covered a distance of
[tex]x=\dfrac a2(9.02\,\mathrm s)^2\approx102\,\mathrm m[/tex]
The car has tires with diameter d = 58.5 cm = 0.585 m, and hence circumference π d ≈ 1.84 m. Divide the distance traveled by the tire circumference to determine how many revolutions it makes:
[tex]\dfrac{102\,\mathrm m}{1.84\,\mathrm m}\approx55.7\,\mathrm{rev}[/tex]
(b) The wheels have average angular velocity
[tex]\omega=\dfrac{\omega_f+\omega_i}2=\dfrac{\theta_f-\theta_i}{\Delta t}[/tex]
where [tex]\omega[/tex] is the average angular velocity, [tex]\omega_i[/tex] and [tex]\omega_f[/tex] are the initial and final angular velocities (rev/s), [tex]\theta_i[/tex] and [tex]\theta_f[/tex] are the initial and final angular displacements (rev), respectively, and [tex]\Delta t[/tex] is the duration of the time between initial and final measurements. The second equality holds because acceleration is constant.
The wheels start at rest, so

Interference experiments constructive interference is described by the expression
d sin θ = m λ
let's use trigonometry to find the distance between the interference fringes
tan θ= y / L
dodne y is the distance from the central maximum, L the distance from the slit to the observation screen. In general these experiments are carried out at very small angles
tan θ = sin θ / cos θ = sin θ
we substitute
sin θ = y / L
d y / L = m λ
y = m λ / d L
a) it asks us when the screen doubles its distance
L ’= 2 L
subtitute in the equation
y ’= m λ / (d 2L)
y ’=( m λ / d L) /2
y ’= y / 2
the distance between the interference fringes is reduced by half
b) the density of the network doubles
if the density doubles in the same distance there are twice as many slits, so the distance between them is reduced by half
d ’= d / 2
we substitute
y ’= m λ (L d / 2)
y ’= m λ / (L d) 2
y ’= y 2
the distance between stripes is doubled

The focal length of the mirror is 0.017 m
(b) The power of the mirror is given by;
[tex]P = \frac{1}{f}[/tex]
where;
P is the power of the mirror
f is the focal length
[tex]P = \frac{1}{f}\\\\P= \frac{1}{0.017}\\\\P = 58.8 \ D[/tex]
Thus, the power of the mirror in diopters is 58.8 D
A thick wire with a radius of 4.0 mm carries a uniform electric current of 1.0 A, distributed uniformly over its cross-section. At what distance from the axis of the wire, and greater than the radius of the wire, is the magnetic field strength equal to that at a distance 2.0 mm from the axis. distance
Answers
Answer:
8 mm
Explanation:
From the information given:
The Ampere circuital law can be used to estimate the magnetic field strength at two points when the distance is less than the radius and when the distance is greater than the radius.
when the distance is less than the radius ; we have:
[tex]B_1 = \dfrac{ \mu_o \times I \times r}{2 \times \pi \times \ d^2}[/tex]
when the distance is greater than the radius; we have:
[tex]B_2 = \dfrac{\mu_o \ \times I}{2 \ \times \pi \times R}[/tex]
Equating both equations together ; we have :
[tex]\dfrac{ \mu_o \times I \times r}{2 \times \pi \times \ d^2} = \dfrac{\mu_o \ \times I}{2 \ \times \pi \times R}[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{1}{R}= \dfrac{r}{d^2}[/tex]
[tex]R= \dfrac{d^2}{r}[/tex]
where; d = radius of the wire and r = distance;
[tex]R =\dfrac{4^2}{2}[/tex]
[tex]R =\dfrac{16}{2}[/tex]
R = 8 mm
A wave travelling along the positive x-axis side with a
frequency of 8 Hz. Find its period, velocity and the distance covered
along this axis when its wavelength and amplitude are 40 and 15 cm
respectively.
Answers
Explanation:
The frequency is given to be f = 8 Hz.
Period is the inverse of frequency.
T = 1/f = 0.125 s
Velocity is wavelength times frequency.
v = λf = (0.40 m) (8 Hz) = 3.2 m/s
The wave travels 3.2 meters every second.
A particle moves along line segments from the origin to the points (2, 0, 0), (2, 3, 1), (0, 3, 1), and back to the origin under the influence of the force field F(x, y, z).

Find the work done.
Answers
Answer:
the net work is zero
Explanation:
Work is defined by the expression
W = F. ds
Bold type indicates vectors
In this problem, the friction force does not decrease, therefore it will be zero.
Consequently for work on a closed path it is zero.
The work in going from the initial point (0, 0, 0) to the end of each segment is positive and when it returns from the point of origin the angle is 180º, therefore the work is negative, consequently the net work is zero
A fish is 80 cm below the surface of a pond. What is the apparent depth (in cm) when viewed from a position almost directly above the fish
Answers
Answer:
Apparent depth (Da) = 60.15 cm (Approx)
Explanation:
Given:
Distance from fish (D) = 80 cm
Find:
Apparent depth (Da)
Computation:
We know that,
Refractive index of water (n2) = 1.33
So,
Apparent depth (Da) = D(n1/n2)
Apparent depth (Da) = 80 (1/1.33)
Apparent depth (Da) = 60.15 cm (Approx)
The apparent depth of the fish is 60 cm.
To calculate the apparent depth of the fish, we use the formula below.
Formula:
R.F(water) = Real depth(D)/Apparent depth(D')R.F = D/D'.................... Equation 1Where:
R.F = Refractive index of waterMake D' The subject of the equation.
D' = D/R.F................... Equation 2From the question,
Given:
D = 80 cmR.F = 1.333Substitute these values into equation 2
D' = 80/1.33D' = 60.01D' = 60 cmHence, the apparent depth of the fish is 60 cm
