a). What is Sammy's height in Inches? (answer to 3 significant figures)
(3)
b). What is Sammy's height in Feet? (answer to 3 significant figures)
what is Sammy's hight in feet according to this statement ​

Answers

Answer 1

Explanation:

1 inch = 25.4 mm

1 foot = 12 inches

1 mile = 5260 feet

1 cm = 0.01 m or 10 mm

Now Sammy's height is 5 feet and 5.3 inches.

(a) We need to find Sammy's height in inches.

Since, 1 foot = 12 inches

5 feet = 5 × 12 inches = 60 inches

Now, 5 feet and 5.3 inches = 60 inches + 5.3 inches = 65.3 inches

Sammy's height is 65.3 inches.

(b) We need to find Sammy's height in feet.

Since, 1 foot = 12 inches

[tex]1\ \text{inch}=\dfrac{1}{12}\ \text{feet}[/tex]

So,

[tex]5.3\ \text{inch}=\dfrac{5.3}{12}\ \text{feet}=0.4416\ \text{feet}[/tex]

5 feet and 5.3 inches = 5 feet + 0.4416 feet = 5.44 feet

Sammy's height is 5.44 feet.

Specular reflection occurs where the light ray in the glass strikes the reflector. If no light is to enter the water, we require that there be reflection only. Which phenomenon prevents the light from entering the water?

Answers

Answer:

The critical angle phenomenon.

Explanation:

Critical angle in optics is the smallest angle of incidence of a wave, that will give total reflection of the wave. This phenomenon occurs at the boundary of two medium, where light will normally move from one medium to another.

To prevent light from entering the water, the angle of incidence of the light incident on the water must exceed the critical angle.

A lamp has the shape of a parabola when viewed from the side. The lamp is centimeters wide and centimeters deep. How far is the light source from the bottom of the lamp if the light source is placed at the focus

Answers

The question is not complete so i have attached it.

Answer:

The light source is 2 cm from the bottom of the lamp

Explanation:

From the attached image, we can see that the parabola opens up with its vertex at the origin.

Now, the standard form of equation for a parabola is:

x² = 4ay

Looking at the parabola in the attachment, the top right edge of the lamp has a coordinate of (12,18)

Thus, we have;

12² = 4a(18)

144 = 72a

a = 144/72

a = 2

Looking at the parabola again, the line of symmetry is at x = 0

Thus, axis of symmetry is at x = 0.

Thus, focus is at (0, 2)

So, if the light source is placed at the focus, the distance of the light source from the bottom of the lamp is 2 cm

The distance of the light source from the bottom of the lamp is 2 cm.

The given parameters;

the top right edge of the lamp has a coordinate of (12,18)

Apply standard parabola equation to determine the distance of the light source from the bottom of the lamp;

[tex]x^2 = 4ay\\\\12^2 = 4a(18)\\\\144 = 72 a\\\\a = \frac{144}{72} \\\\a = 2 \ cm[/tex]

Thus, the distance of the light source from the bottom of the lamp is 2 cm.

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is  d

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  electric potential is  [tex]V = 3000 \ V[/tex]

      The  power is  [tex]P = 60 \ W[/tex]

      The  charge delivered is  [tex]q = 3nC = 3.0 *10^{-9} \ C[/tex]

Generally the power generated is mathematically represented as

A fan rotating with an initial angular velocity of 1500 rev/min is switched off. In 2.5 seconds, the angular velocity decreases to 400 rev/min. Assuming the angular acceleration is constant, answer the following questions.
How many revolutions does the blade undergo during this time?
A) 10
B) 20
C) 100
D) 125
E) 1200

Answers

Answer:

The blade undergoes 40 revolutions, so neither of the given options is correct!

Explanation:

The revolutions can be found using the following equation:

[tex]\theta_{f} = \theta_{i} + \omega_{i}*t + \frac{1}{2}\alpha*t^{2}[/tex]

Where:

α is the angular acceleration

t is the time = 2.5 s

[tex]\omega_{i}[/tex] is the initial angular velocity = 1500 rev/min                

First, we need to find the angular acceleration:

[tex] \alpha = \frac{\omega_{f} - \omega_{i}}{t} = \frac{400 rev/min*2\pi rad*1 min/60 s - 1500 rev/min *2\pi rad*1 min/60 s}{2.5 s} = -46.08 rad/s^{2} [/tex]

Now, the revolutions that the blade undergo are:

[tex]\theta_{f} - \theta_{i} = \omega_{i}*t + \frac{1}{2}\alpha*t^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\Delta \theta = 1500 rev/min *2\pi rad*1 min/60 s*2.5 s - \frac{1}{2}*(46.08 rad/s^{2})*(2.5)^{2} = 248.7 rad = 39.9 rev[/tex]        

Therefore, the blade undergoes 40 revolutions, so neither of the given options is correct!

What is the power P of the eye when viewing an object 61.0 cm away? Assume the lens-to-retina distance is 2.00 cm , and express the answer in diopters.

Answers

Answer:

The power of the eye is 51.64 diopters

Explanation:

The power of the eye is given by;

[tex]P = \frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{d_o} +\frac{1}{d_i}[/tex]

where;

P is the power of the eye in diopter

f is the focal length of the eye

[tex]d_o[/tex] is the distance between the eye and the object

[tex]d_i[/tex] is the distance between the eye and the image

Given;

[tex]d_o[/tex] = 61.0 cm = 0.61 m

[tex]d_i[/tex] = 2.0 cm = 0.02 m

[tex]P = \frac{1}{d_o} +\frac{1}{d_i} \\\\P = \frac{1}{0.61} + \frac{1}{0.02} \\\\P = 51.64 \ D[/tex]

Therefore, the power of the eye is 51.64 diopters.

The power P of the eye when viewing an object 61.0 cm away is 51.639D

The power of a lens is a reciprocal of its focal length and it is expressed as:

[tex]P=\frac{1}{f}[/tex]

According to the mirror formula

[tex]\frac{1}{f} =\frac{1}{d_i} +\frac{1}{d_0}[/tex]

where

[tex]d_i[/tex] is the distance from the lens to the image = 61.0cm = 0.61m

[tex]d_0[/tex] is the distance from the lens to the object = 2.00cm = 0.02m

[tex]P=\frac{1}{f} =\frac{1}{0.02} +\frac{1}{0.61}\\P=50+1.639\\P=51.639D[/tex]

Hence the power P of the eye when viewing an object 61.0 cm away is 51.639D

Answers

Answer:

The rms current in the circuit is 3.513 A

Explanation:

Given;

angular frequency of the inductor, ω = 363 rad/s

maximum voltage of the inductive AC, V₀ = 169 V

Inductance of the inductor, L = 0.0937 H

Inductive reactance is given by;

[tex]X_L = 2\pi f L= \omega L[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  electric filed is  [tex]E = 102 \ N/C[/tex]  

Generally according to Gauss law

=>   [tex]E A = \frac{q}{\epsilon_o }[/tex]

Given that  the electric field is pointing downward  , the equation become

    [tex]- E A = \frac{q}{\epsilon_o }[/tex]

Here   [tex]q[/tex] is the excess charge on the surface of the earth

          [tex]A[/tex] is the surface  area of the of the earth which is mathematically represented as

     [tex]A = 4\pi r^2[/tex]

Where r is the radius of the earth which has a value [tex]r = 6.3781*10^6 m[/tex]

 substituting values

    [tex]A = 4 * 3.142 * (6.3781*10^6 \ m)^2[/tex]

    [tex]A =5.1128 *10^{14} \ m^2[/tex]

So

   [tex]q = -E * A * \epsilon _o[/tex]

Here [tex]\epsilon_o[/tex] s the permitivity of free space with value

          [tex]\epsilon_o = 8.85*10^{-12} \ m^{-3} \cdot kg^{-1}\cdot s^4 \cdot A^2[/tex]

substituting values

     [tex]q = -102 * 5.1128 *10^{14} * 8.85 *10^{-12}[/tex]

A rod bent into the arc of a circle subtends an angle 2θ at the center P of the circle (see below). If the rod is charged uniformly with a total charge Q, what is the electric field at P? (Assume Q is positive. For the magnitude, use the following as necessary: ε0, Q, R, and θ.)

Answers

Answer:

Qsinθ/4πε₀R²θ

Explanation:

Let us have a small charge element dq which produces an electric field E. There is also a symmetric field at P due to a symmetric charge dq at P. Their vertical electric field components cancel out leaving the horizontal component dE' = dEcosθ = dqcosθ/4πε₀R² where r is the radius of the arc.

Now, let λ be the charge per unit length on the arc. then, the small charge element dq = λds where ds is the small arc length. Also ds = Rθ.

So dq = λRdθ.

Substituting dq into dE', we have

dE' = dqcosθ/4πε₀R²

= λRdθcosθ/4πε₀R²

= λdθcosθ/4πε₀R

E' = ∫dE' = ∫λRdθcosθ/4πε₀R² = (λ/4πε₀R)∫cosθdθ from -θ to θ

E' = (λ/4πε₀R)[sinθ] from -θ to θ

E' = (λ/4πε₀R)[sinθ]

= (λ/4πε₀R)[sinθ - sin(-θ)]

= (λ/4πε₀R)[sinθ + sinθ]

= 2(λ/4πε₀R)sinθ

= (λ/2πε₀R)sinθ

Now, the total charge Q = ∫dq = ∫λRdθ from -θ to +θ

Q = λR∫dθ = λR[θ - (-θ)] = λR[θ + θ] = 2λRθ

Q = 2λRθ

λ = Q/2Rθ

Substituting λ into E', we have

E' = (Q/2Rθ/2πε₀R)sinθ

E' = (Q/θ4πε₀R²)sinθ

E' = Qsinθ/4πε₀R²θ where θ is in radians

 

An inductor is hooked up to an AC voltage source. The voltage source has EMF V0 and frequency f. The current amplitude in the inductor is I0.
Part A
What is the reactance XL of the inductor?
Express your answer in terms of V0 and I0.
Part B
What is the inductance L of the inductor?
Express your answer in terms of V0, f, and I0.

Answers

Answer:

a. The reactance of the inductor is XL = V₀/I₀

b. The inductance of the inductor is L = V₀/2πfI₀

Explanation:

PART A

Since the voltage across the inductor V₀ = I₀XL where V₀ = e.m.f of voltage source, I₀ = current amplitude and XL = reactance of the inductor,

XL = V₀/I₀

So, the reactance of the inductor is XL = V₀/I₀

PART B

The inductance of the inductor is gotten from XL = 2πfL where f = frequency of voltage source and L = inductance of inductor

Since XL = V₀/I₀ = 2πfL

V₀/I₀ = 2πfL

L = V₀/2πfI₀

So the inductance of the inductor is L = V₀/2πfI₀

A) The reactance XL of the inductor :  [tex]\frac{V_{0} }{I_{0} }[/tex]  

B) The Inductance L of the inductor : [tex]\frac{V_{0} }{2\pi fl_{0} }[/tex]  

A) Expressing the Reactance of the inductor

Voltage across the Inductor = V₀ = I₀XL   ---- ( 1 )

Where :  V₀ = emf voltage ,  I₀ = current

from equation ( 1 )

∴ XL ( reactance ) = [tex]\frac{V_{0} }{I_{0} }[/tex]  

B ) Expressing the Inductance of the Inductor

Inductance of an inductor is expressed as : XL = 2πfL

from part A

XL = [tex]\frac{V_{0} }{I_{0} }[/tex] = 2πfL

∴ The inductance L of the Inductor expressed in terms of V₀, F and I₀

L = [tex]\frac{V_{0} }{2\pi fl_{0} }[/tex]

Hence we can conclude that The reactance XL of the inductor :  [tex]\frac{V_{0} }{I_{0} }[/tex]  and The Inductance L of the inductor : [tex]\frac{V_{0} }{2\pi fl_{0} }[/tex]  .

1 m
4 m
0.08 m
2 m

Answers

Answer:

Option (A) : 1m

Explanation:

According to Hooke's law:

F (spring elastic force) =

k( spring const.) * x(displacement)

Case-1

2 N = k * 0.4m

k = 5

Case- 2

5 N = 5 * x

x ( displacement) = 1 m

The displacement of the spring if a 5-N force was applied is equal to 1m. Therefore, option (1) is correct.

What is Hooke's law?

The strain and stress are proportional to each other, and this is called Hooke’s Law. Hooke’s law states that the strain is proportional to the stress applied within the elastic limit of the material.

When the materials are stretched, the atoms or molecules deform and when the stress is removed, they will return to their original state.

The mathematical equation for Hooke's law is as follows:

F = –kx

where F is the force, x is displacement, and k is the spring constant in N/m.

Given, F = 2N and x = 0.4m

F = -kx

2 N = - k (0.4m)

k = 5 N/m where the negative sign is omitted.

Now, the spring constant of the spring, k = 5 N/m and F = 5N

F = -kx

5 N = - (5 N/m)(x)

x = - 1m

Therefore, the displacement of the spring is 1 m.

A. How many neutrons are in Mg-25?
B. What is the average atomic mass of magnesium in these rocks?
C. Is the magnesium composition on Mars the same as that on Earth? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

A.   number of neutrons of Magnesium Mg = 13

B.   The average mass of Mg = 22.29 amu

C.   the magnesium composition on Mars is not the same as that on Earth.

Explanation:

Isotopes are atoms with the same atomic number but different mass number. This is due to the difference in mass of the neutrons.

The atomic number of Magnesium Mg = 12

The atomic number of an element is the number of protons present in the atomic nucleus of the element

i.e Atomic number = number of protons = 12

The mass number of an element is the sum of the protons and neutrons in the atomic nucleus of the element.

Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons

Given that the mass number of Mg = 25

Then;

25 = 12 + number of neutrons

25 - 12 = number of neutrons

13 = number of neutrons

number of neutrons of Magnesium Mg = 13

B. What is the average atomic mass of magnesium in these rocks?

The average atomic mass of an element which exhibit isotopy is the average mass of its various isotopes as they occur naturally in any quantity of the element.

Therefore the average atomic mass of magnesium can be calculated as:

= [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{(23.9872 \times 79.70) + ( 24.9886 \times 10.13) + (25.9846 \times 10.17) }{79.7 + 10.13 +10.17}}[/tex]

= [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{(1911.77984) + ( 53.134518) + (264.263382) }{100}}[/tex]

= [tex]\mathtt{\dfrac{2229.17774 }{100}}[/tex]

The average mass of Mg = 22.29 amu

C. Is the magnesium composition on Mars the same as that on Earth? Explain.

The average atomic weight of magnesium on Earth is said to be 24.305 amu while that of Mars is 22.29 amu.

There difference in the average atomic weight result into difference in their composition. Therefore,the magnesium composition on Mars is not the same as that on Earth.

Explanation:

We are given;

Angle of tilt; θ = 12°

Speed of sliding down; u = 1.5 m/s

Coefficient of kinetic friction; μ = 0.34

We are told that the box is sliding down an incline tilted at a 12° angle above horizontal.

Thus,

The components of the weight of the block would be;

Fx = mg sinθ = mg sin 12

Fy = mg cosθ = mg cos 12

For, the normal force on the block, it will be counter balanced by the Y component of weight of block and so we have;

Normal force; Fn = mg cos 12

Now formula for the frictional force would be given by;

Ff = μmg cos 12

So, Ff = 0.34mg cos 12

So, the net force along the inclined plane is;

Fnet = Fx - Ff

Fnet = mg sin 12 - 0.34mg cos 12

Where Fnet = mass x acceleration.

Thus;

ma = mg sin 12 - 0.34mg cos 12

m will cancel out to give;

a = g sin 12 - 0.34g cos 12

a = 9.81(0.2079) - 0.34(9.81 × 0.9781)

a = -1.223 m/s²

According to Newton's equation of motion, we have;

(v² - u²) = 2as

s = (v² - u²)/2a

Final velocity is zero. Thus;

s = (0² - 1.5²)/(2 × -1.223)

s = -2.25/-2.446

s = 0.9199 m

Thus, the box will cover 0.9199m before coming to rest

A single slit 1.5 mm wide is illuminated by 420- nm light. Part A What is the width of the central maximum (in cm ) in the diffraction pattern on a screen 4.5 m away

Answers

Answer:

The width is [tex]w_c = 0.00252 \ m[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  width of the single slit is  [tex]a = 1.5 \ mm = 1.5 *10^{-3} \ m[/tex]

   The  wavelength is  [tex]\lambda = 420 *10^{-9} \ m[/tex]

   The distance of the screen is  [tex]D = 4.5 \ m[/tex]

Generally the width of the central maximum is  

        [tex]w_c = 2 * y[/tex]

where y is the width of the first maxima which is mathematically represented as

       [tex]y = \frac{\lambda * D}{a}[/tex]

=>   [tex]y = \frac{ 420 *10^{-9} * 4.5}{ 1.5*10^{-3}}[/tex]

=>  [tex]y = 0.00126 \ m[/tex]

So

    [tex]w_c = 2 *0.00126[/tex]

    [tex]w_c = 0.00252 \ m[/tex]

A skull believed to belong to an ancient human being has a carbon-14 decay rate of 5.4 disintegrations per minute per gram of carbon (5.4 dis/min*gC). If living organisms have a decay rate of 15.3 dis/min*gC, how old is this skull

Answers

Answer:

9.43*10^3 year

Explanation:

For this question, we ought to remember, or know that the half life of carbon 14 is 5730, and that would be vital in completing the calculation

To start with, we use the formula

t(half) = In 2/k,

if we make k the subject of formula, we have

k = in 2/t(half), now we substitute for the values

k = in 2 / 5730

k = 1.21*10^-4 yr^-1

In(A/A•) = -kt, on rearranging, we find out that

t = -1/k * In(A/A•)

The next step is to substitite the values for each into the equation, giving us

t = -1/1.21*10^-4 * In(5.4/15.3)

t = -1/1.21*10^-4 * -1.1041

t = 0.943*10^4 year

How are electricity and magnets connected

Answers

Answer: The properties of magnets are used to make electricity. Moving magnetic fields pull and push electrons. Moving a magnet around a coil of wire, or moving a coil of wire around a magnet, pushes the electrons in the wire and creates an electrical current.

A metal cube with sides of length a=1cm is moving at velocity v0→=1m/sj^ across a uniform magnetic field B0→=5Tk^. The cube is oriented so that four of its edges are parallel to its direction of motion (i.e., the normal vectors of two faces are parallel to the direction of motion).Find E, the magnitude of the induced electric field inside the cube. Express your answer numerically, in newtons per coulomb.

Answers

Answer:

the magnitude of the electric field is 1.25 N/C

Explanation:

The induced emf in the cube ε = LB.v where B = magnitude of electric field = 5 T , L = length of side of cube = 1 cm = 0.01 m and v = velocity of cube = 1 m/s

ε = LB.v = 0.01 m × 5 T × 1 m/s = 0.05 V

Also, induced emf in the cube ε = ∫E.ds around the loop of the cube where E = electric field in metal cube

ε = ∫E.ds

ε = Eds since E is always parallel to the side of the cube

= E∫ds  ∫ds = 4L since we have 4 sides

= E(4L)

= 4EL

So,4EL = 0.05 V

E = 0.05 V/4L

= 0.05 V/(4 × 0.01 m)

= 0.05 V/0.04 m

= 1.25 V/m

= 1.25 N/C

So, the magnitude of the electric field is 1.25 N/C

The magnitude of the electric field is 1.25 N/C

Calculation of the  magnitude of the electric field:

But before that the following calculations need to be done.

ε = LB.v = 0.01 m × 5 T × 1 m/s

= 0.05 V

Now

ε = ∫E.ds

here ε = Eds because E is always parallel to the side of the cube

So,

= E∫ds  ∫ds

= 4L so we have 4 sides

Now

= E(4L)

= 4EL

So,4EL = 0.05 V

Now

E = 0.05 V/4L

= 0.05 V/(4 × 0.01 m)

= 0.05 V/0.04 m

= 1.25 V/m

= 1.25 N/C

hence, The magnitude of the electric field is 1.25 N/C

A particle moves along line segments from the origin to the points (1, 0, 0), (1, 5, 1), (0, 5, 1), and back to the origin under the influence of the force field. F(x, y, z)= z^2i + 4xyj + 5y^2kFind the work done.

Answers

Answer:

0 J

Explanation:

Since work done W = ∫F.dr and F(x, y, z)= z²i + 4xyj + 5y²k and dr = dxi + dyj + dzk

F.dr = (z²i + 4xyj + 5y²k).(dxi + dyj + dzk) = z²dx + 4xydy + 5y²dz

W = ∫F.dr = ∫z²dx + 4xydy + 5y²dz = z²x + 2xy² + 5y²z

We now evaluate the work done for the different regions

W₁ = work done from (0,0,0) to (1,0,0)

W₁ = {z²x + 2xy² + 5y²z}₀₀₀¹⁰⁰ = 0²(1) + 2(1)(0)² + 5(0)²(0) - [(0)²(0) + 2(0)(0)² + 5(0)²(0)] = 0 - 0 = 0 J

W₂ = work done from (1,0,0) to (1,5,1)

W₂ = {z²x + 2xy² + 5y²z}₁₀₀¹⁵¹ =   (1)²(1) + 2(1)(5)² + 5(5)²(1) - [0²(1) + 2(1)(0)² + 5(0)²(0)] =  1 + 50 + 125 - 0 = 176 J

W₃ = work done from (1,5,1) to (0,5,1)

W₃ = {z²x + 2xy² + 5y²z}₁₅₁⁰⁵¹ =   1²(0) + 2(0)(5)² + 5(5)²(1) - [(1)²(1) + 2(1)(5)² + 5(5)²(1)]  = 125 - (1 + 50 + 125) = 125 - 176 = -51 J

W₄ = work done from (0,5,1) to (0,0,0)

W₄ = {z²x + 2xy² + 5y²z}₁₅₁⁰⁰⁰ =   (0)²(0) + 2(0)(0)² + 5(0)²(0) - [1²(0) + 2(0)(5)² + 5(5)²(1)] = 0 - 125 = -125 J

The total work done W is thus

W = W₁ + W₂ + W₃ + W₄

W = 0 J + 176 J - 51 J - 125 J

W = 176 J - 176 J

W = 0 J

The total work done equals 0 J
