Explanation:
1. A typical payload they claim to launch will weigh 1 kilogram and be accelerated to 90% the speed of light. How much electrical energy will the rail gun require to launch the probe, assuming it is 20% efficient at converting electrical energy to projectile kinetic energy?
The kinetic energy of the payload is K = (γ - 1)mc² where m = mass of payload = 1 kg, c = speed of light = 3 × 10⁸ m/s and γ = 1/√(1 - β²) where β = 0.9 (since the payload moves at 90 % speed of light)
So, K = (γ - 1)mc²
= (1/√(1 - β²) - 1)mc²
= (1/√(1 - (0.9)²) - 1) × 1 kg × (3 × 10⁸ m/s)²
= (1/√(1 - 0.81) - 1) × 1 kg × (3 × 10⁸ m/s)²
= (1/√0.19 - 1) × 1 kg × (3 × 10⁸ m/s)²
= (1/0.436 - 1) × 1 kg × (3 × 10⁸ m/s)²
= (2.294 - 1) × 1 kg × (3 × 10⁸ m/s)²
= 1.294 × 1 kg × 9 × 10¹⁶ m²/s²
= 11.65 × 10¹⁶ kgm²/s²
= 1.165 × 10¹⁷ J
Let E be the total electrical energy of the rail gun. Since 20 % of this energy is converted to kinetic energy of the payload, we have
20 % of E = K
0.2E = K
E = K/0.2
= 1.165 × 10¹⁷ J/0.2
= 5.825 × 10¹⁷ J
2 Given that typical electrical costs are about 5 cents/MJ, how much would this launch cost? Would you invest in this company?
i. how much would this launch cost?
Since the total energy required is E = 5.825 × 10¹⁷ J = 5.825 × 10¹¹ MJ and it costs 5 cent/MJ. So the total cost of energy will be total energy rate = 5.825 × 10¹¹ MJ × 5 cent/MJ = 29.125 × 10¹¹ = 2.9125 × 10¹² cents. Converting this to dollars, we have 2.9125 × 10¹² cents/100 cents/dollar = 2.9125 × 10¹⁰ dollars = 29.125 × 10⁹ dollars = 29.125 billion dollars = $ 29.125 billion
ii. Would you invest in this company?
I would not invest in the company
3. You are also concerned about safety. What happens if this projectile were to hit an airplane that is flying overhead and dissipate all of its kinetic energy in the collision? To give you a sense of scale, a large nuclear explosion generates about 1015 J of energy.
Since the kinetic energy of the payload is 1.165 × 10¹⁷ J and a nuclear explosion generates about 10¹⁵ J of energy, then a nuclear reaction would occur if the payload hits an airplane flying overhead and dissipates all its kinetic energy in the collision.
4. The system must be able to launch probes to all parts in the sky and must be transportable on a ship. Assume that the rail gun is mounted on a frigate-class navy ship (weight = 4,000 metric tons).
a. Will the recoil momentum of the ship be relativistic? Justify your argument.
i. Will the recoil momentum of the ship be relativistic?
The momentum will not be relativistic.
ii. Justify your argument.
This is because objects with large masses do not move at relativistic speeds. Since the speed cannot be relativistic, its momentum which is the product of mass and speed is non-relativistic
b. At what speed will the ship recoil after it launches a probe? Do you think that this is a problem for the ship?
i. At what speed will the ship recoil after it launches a probe?
Since the total energy of the payload E' = K + mc² = 1.165 × 10¹⁷ J + 1 kg × (3 × 10⁸ m/s)² = 1.165 × 10¹⁷ J + 1 kg × 9 × 10¹⁶ m²/s² = 11.65 × 10¹⁶ J + 9 × 10¹⁶ J = 20.65 × 10¹⁶ J
Also, E'² = (pc)² + (mc²)² where p = momentum of payload
So, making p subject of the formula, we have
(pc)² = E'² - (mc²)²
pc = √[E'² - (mc²)²]
p = √[E'² - (mc²)²]/c
substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
p = √[E'² - (mc²)²]/c
p = √[(20.65 × 10¹⁶ J)² - 1kg × (3 × 10⁸ m/s²)²]/3 × 10⁸ m/s
p = √[(20.65 × 10¹⁶ J)² - (1kg × 9 × 10⁸ m²/s²)²]/3 × 10⁸ m/s
p = √[426.4225 × 10³² J² - 81 × 10³² J²]/3 × 10⁸ m/s
p = √[345.4225 × 10³² J²]/3 × 10⁸ m/s
p = 18.59 × 10¹⁶/3 × 10⁸ m/s
p = 6.20 × 10⁸ kgm/s
From the law of conservation, this momentum of the payload equals the momentum of recoil of the ship.
So, p = m'v where m' = mass of navy ship = 4,000 metric tons = 4,000 × 1000 kg = 4 × 10⁶ kg and v = speed of navy ship
So, v = p/m'
= 6.20 × 10⁸ kgm/s ÷ 4 × 10⁶ kg
= 1.55 × 10² m/s
= 155 m/s
ii. Do you think that this is a problem for the ship?
Since the ship's speed is 155 m/s, which is small for an object with such a large mass, this speed wouldn't be a problem for the ship.
A swift blow with the hand can break a pine board. As the hand hits the board, the kinetic energy of the hand is transformed into elastic potential energy of the bending board; if the board bends far enough, it breaks. Applying a force to the center of a particular pine board deflects the center of the board by a distance that increases in proportion to the force. Ultimately the board breaks at an applied force of 870 N and a deflection of 1.4 cm.
a. To break the board with a blow from the hand, how fast must the hand be moving? Use 0.50 kg for the mass of the hand.
b. If the hand is moving this fast and comes to rest in a distance of 1.2 cm, what is the average force on the hand?
Answer:
A. The hand must move with a velocity of 6.98 m/s to break the board.
B. Average force on the hand = 1025 N
Explanation:
A.To determine the speed the hand must move with to break the board, the force workdone in breaking the board is found first.
Workdone = force × distance
Minimum force required = 870 N;
Distance moved by board/Deflection in order to break = 1.4 cm = 0.014 M
Workd done = 870 N × 0.014 m = 12.18 Nm or 12.18 J
This work done = Kinetic energy of the hand
Kinetic energy = mv²/2 ; where m is mass and v is velocity
Mass of hand = 0.50 Kg, velocity = ?, K.E. = 12.18 J
v² = 2 KE/m
v = √2KE/m
v = √(2 × 12.18/0.50)
v = 6.98 m/s
Therefore, the hand must move with a velocity of 6.98 m/s to break the board.
B. Average force on the hand
This can be determined using the equation of motion, v² = u² + 2as to find acceleration, since force = mass × acceleration
From the equation of motion, a = v² - u²/2s
At rest, v = 0, u = 6.98, s = 1.2 cm = 0.012 m
a = 0² - 6.98²/ 2 × 0.012
a = -2030 m/s²
Force = 2030 m/s² × 0. 50 kg = 1015 N
Therefore, Average force on the hand = 1025 N
The lumberjack pulls on the sled with 40 N at an angle of 30 degrees, pulling so the sled moves at a constant velocity. 1) What is the x component of the applied force? 2) What is the y component of the applied force? 3) If the loaded sled has a mass of 65 kg, what is the magnitude of the force of gravity? 4) What is the magnitude of the normal force acting on the sled? 5) What is the coefficient of friction between the snow and the sled?
1) (40 N) cos(30°) ≈ 34.6 N
2) (40 N) sin(30°) = 20 N
3) (65 kg) g = (65 kg) (9.80 m/s²) = 585 N
4) The net force on the sled acting in the vertical direction is made up of
• the sled's weight, 585 N, pointing downward
• the vertical component of the applied force, 20 N, pointing upward
• the normal force, with magnitude n, also pointing upward
The sled does not move up or down, so by Newton's second law,
∑ F = n + 20 N - 585 N = 0 ==> n = 565 N
5) The net force in the horizontal direction consists of
• the horizontal component of the applied force, 34.6 N, acting in the direction the sled's movement (call this the positive direction)
• kinetic friction, with magnitude f, pointing in the opposite and negative direction
By Newton's second law,
∑ F = 34.6 N - f = 0 ==> f ≈ 34.6 N
Now if µ is the coefficient of kinetic friction, then
f = µn ==> µ = f/n = (34.6 N) / (565 N) ≈ 0.0613
The component of the force is the effective part of that force in that direction.
What is the component of a force?The component of the force is the effective part of that force in that direction.
1) The horizontal component of a force = 40 N cos 30 degrees = 34.6 N
2) The vertical component of the force = 40 N sin 30 degrees = 20 N
3) The magnitude of the gravitational force = mg cos 30 degrees = 65 Kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * cos 30 degrees = 551.7 N
4) The normal force = 551.7 N
5) The coefficient of friction = F/R = 40 N /551.7 N = 0.07

You take your pulse and observe 80 heartbeats in a minute. What is the period of your heartbeat? What is the frequency of your heartbeat?
Answer:
120 beats per minute.
Explanation:
If I take your pulse and observe 80 heartbeats in a minute. Then the period of your heartbeat is 0.8 s and frequency is 1.3Hz.
What is Heartbeat ?A pulse is the term used in medicine to describe the tactile arterial palpation of the cardiac cycle (heartbeat) by skilled fingertips. Any location where an artery can be compressed close to the surface of the body, such as the carotid artery in the neck, the radial artery in the wrist, the femoral artery in the groyne, the popliteal artery behind the knee, the posterior tibial artery near the ankle joint, and on the foot, can be used to palpate the pulse (dorsalis pedis artery). Heart rate may be determined by monitoring pulse, or the number of arterial pulses per minute. Auscultation, which is the process of counting the heartbeats while listening to the heart using a stethoscope, is another way to determine the heart rate. Typically, three fingers are used to gauge the radial pulse.
Given,
heart beat = 80 beats/min = 1.3 beats/s
Frequency is nothing but how much beats is heart having in one second and that is 1.3 beats/s. Hence frequency of heart is 1.3Hz.
The Period is reciprocal of frequency,

help plzzzzzzzzzzzz ?
Explanation:
1. First, let's find the total resistance of the circuit. We begin by combining [tex]R_{4}[/tex], [tex]R_{5}[/tex] and [tex]R_{6}[/tex]:
[tex]R_{456}=R_{4} + \dfrac{R_{5}R_{6}}{R_{5} + R_{6}}[/tex]
[tex]= 6\:Ω + \dfrac{(3\:Ω)(5\:Ω)}{3\:Ω+5\:Ω} = 7.9\:Ω[/tex]
Now time to combine [tex]R_{2}[/tex] and [tex]R_{3}[/tex] and they are connected in series so
[tex]R_{23} =R_{2} + R_{3} = 17\:Ω[/tex]
Note that [tex]R_{23}[/tex] and [tex]R_{456}[/tex] are connected in parallel so
[tex]R_{23456} = \dfrac{R_{23}R_{456}}{R_{23}+R_{456}}=5.4\:Ω[/tex]
Finally, [tex]R_{23456}[/tex] is connected in series with [tex]R_{1}[/tex] so the total resistance [tex]R_{T}[/tex] is
[tex]R_{T} = R_{1} + R_{23456} = 10\:Ω + 5.4\:Ω = 15.4\:Ω[/tex]
2. The total current in the circuit is
[tex]I_{T} = \dfrac{V}{R_{T}} = \dfrac{20\:V}{15.4\:Ω} = 1.3\:A[/tex]
3. The voltage drop across [tex]R_{1},\:V_{1}[/tex] is
[tex]V_{1} = I_{T}R_{1} = (1.3\:A)(10\:Ω) = 13\:V[/tex]
4. We can see that [tex]I_{T} = I_{1} + I_{2}[/tex]. To solve for [tex]I_{1}[/tex], we need [tex]V_{23}[/tex], which is just [tex]V_{T} - V_{1} = 20\:V - 13\:V = 7\:V[/tex] , which gives us
[tex]I_{1} = \dfrac{V_{23}}{R_{23}} = \dfrac{7\:V}{17\:Ω} = 0.4\:A[/tex]
5. From #2 & #4, [tex]I_{2} = 1.3\:A - 0.4\:A = 0.9\:A[/tex] and we also know that the voltage drop across [tex]R_{456}[/tex] is 7 V, the same as that of [tex]R_{23}[/tex]. The voltage drop across [tex]R_{4}[/tex] is
[tex]V_{4} = I_{2}R_{4} =(0.9\:A)(6\:Ω) = 5.4\:V[/tex]
This means that the voltage drop across [tex]R_{6}[/tex] is 7 V - 5.4 V = 1.6 V. Knowing this, the current through [tex]R_{6}[/tex] is
[tex]I_{6} = \dfrac{1.6\:V}{5\:Ω} = 0.3\:A[/tex]

Alice's friends Bob and Charlie are having a race to a distant star 10 light years away. Alice is the race official who stays on Earth, and her friend Darien is stationed on the star where the race ends. Bob is in a rocket that can travel at 0.7c; whereas Charlie's rocket can reach a speed of 0.866c. Bob and Charlie start at the same time. Draw space- diagrams from each perspective.
Required:
Estimate how long it takes Bob and Charlie to finish the race from each perspective.
Solution :
The distance between the starting point and the end point, [tex]L_0[/tex] = 10 light years
But due to the relativistic motion of Bob and Charlie, the distance will be reduced following the Lorentz contraction. The contracted length will be different since they are moving with different speeds.
For Bob,
Speed of Bob's rocket with respect to Alice, [tex]L_b = 0.7 \ c[/tex]
So the distance appeared to Bob due to the length contraction,
[tex]$L_b=L_0\sqrt{1-\frac{V_b^2}{c^2}$[/tex]
[tex]$L_b=10\times \sqrt{1-0.49} \ Ly$[/tex]
[tex]$=7.1 \ Ly$[/tex]
Therefore, the time required to finish the race by Bob is
[tex]$t_b = \frac{L_b}{V_b}$[/tex]
[tex]$=\frac{7.1 \ c}{0.7 \ c}$[/tex]
= 10.143 year
For Charlie,
Speed of Charlie's rocket with respect to Alice, [tex]L_c = 0.866 \ c[/tex]
So the distance appeared to Charlie due to the length contraction,
[tex]$L_b=L_0\sqrt{1-\frac{V_c^2}{c^2}$[/tex]
[tex]$L_b=10\times \sqrt{1-0.75} \ Ly$[/tex]
[tex]$=5 \ Ly$[/tex]
The time required to finish the race by Charlie is
[tex]$t_b = \frac{L_c}{V_c}$[/tex]
[tex]$=\frac{5 \ c}{0.866 \ c}$[/tex]

Part A How much work does this engine do per cycle? Express your answer with the appropriate units. sochoric cooling to 200 K -Isothermal compression to 3000 cm3. - Isochoric heating to 800 K Value Units
Part B What is its thermal efficiency? Express your answer with the appropriate units.
Answer:
below
Explanation:
Part A) This engine works per cycle is 254.9 J.
Part B) The thermal efficiency is 23.42%
What is the thermal efficiency?The thermal efficiency of any heat engine is represented in percentage of heat energy converted into work.
For isothermal expansion, work done is
W₁ =nRT₁ x ln(V₂/V₁)
W₁ = 0.1 x 8.314 x 800 x ln(5000/3000)
W₁ = 339.8 J =Q₁
For isochoric cooling ,
W₂ =0
Q₂ =nCvdT = 0.1 x 3R/2 x (T₂-T₁)
Q₂ = -748.3 J
For isothermal compression,
W₃ =nRT₂ ln (V₄/V₃)
W₃ = 0.1 x 8.314 x 200 x ln(3000/5000)
W₃ = -84.9J
For isochoric heating
W₄ =0
Q₄ =nCvdT = 0.1 x 3R/2 x (800-200)
Q₄ = -748.3 J
Total work done in all the process W = W₁ +W₂ +W₃ +W₄
W =254.9 J
Thus, the work done is 254.9 J
Thermal efficiency = Work done/Heat taken
η = W/ Q₁ +Q₄
η = [254.9 / 339.8 +748.3 ] x 100 %
η = 0.2342 x 100 %
η = 23.42%
Thus, the thermal efficiency is 23.42%

When you release some of the paint from a spray paint can and the can remains at the same temperature, which gas law does this represent?
Answer:
Boyle's law.
Explanation:
Robert Boyle was an Irish chemist and is famously referred to as the first modern chemist. He was born on the 25th of January, 1627 in Lismore, Ireland and died on the 31st, December 1691, London, United Kingdom.
Boyles states that when the temperature of an ideal gas is kept constant, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume occupied by the gas.
Mathematically, Boyles law is given by;
[tex] PV = K[/tex]
[tex] P_{1}V_{1} = P_{2}V_{2} [/tex]
Where;
P1 is the original pressure.
P2 is the final pressure.
V1 is the original volume.
V2 is the final volume.
Hence, when you release some of the paint from a spray paint can by applying an amount of pressure and the can remains at the same temperature, the gas law which this represent is Boyle's law.

Suppose there are 3 molecules in a container. If each molecule has a 1-in-2 chance of being in the left half of the container, what is the probability that there are exactly 2 molecules in the left half of the container?
Answer:
Total probability = 3/8
Explanation:
Below is the calculation:
Number of molecules in the container = 3
The probability of one molecule in the left half, P = 3 / 2 = 1.5 or 1/2
The probability of second molecule in the left half, P1 = (3/4)
Total probability = P x P1
Total probability = (1/2) x (3/4)
Total probability = 3/8
