3) A 30 kg child slides freely across a "Slip and Slide" on LEVEL GROUND. While the child slides, the force applied to keep them sliding is 0 N. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.02. What is the acceleration experienced by the child?

Answers

Answer:

a = 0.1962 m/s^2

Explanation:

The magnitude of kinetic friction exerted is given by

[tex]F_k=\mu_kN[/tex]

Where, μ_k= coefficient of kinetic friction= 0.02 and N = reaction force = mg

Where m= mass = 30 Kg and, g is acceleration due to gravity =9.81 m/s^2

F_k=0.02×30×9.81 =5.886 N

Now, since, there is no applied force this kinetic friction force will cause acceleration of the child

⇒ ma = F_k

here, a is the acceleration

⇒30a = 5.886

⇒ a = 0.1962 m/s^2

A 70 kg human body typically contains 140 g of potassium. Potassium has a chemical atomic mass of 39.1 u and has three naturally occurring isotopes. One of those isotopes, 40K (potassium), is radioactive with a half-life of 1.3 billion years and a natural abundance of 0.012 %. Each 40K (potassium) decay deposits, on average, 1.0 MeV of energy into the body.
What yearly dose in Gy does the typical person receive from the decay of 40K (potassium) in the body? Express your answer using two significant figures.

Answers

Answer:

Gy = 3.14x10⁻⁴ Gy

Explanation:

To get the dose in Gy we need to use the following expression:

Gy = E / m  (1)

Where:

Gy: dose

E: energy absorbed per atom

m: mass of the human body.

We don't have the energy per atom, but we can calculate that by following the next procedure.

First, let's determine the number of atoms of potassium in our body. For that we need to determine the moles in the 140 g of potassium, with the molecular mass and then, use the avogadro's number:

moles = m/MM

moles = 140 / 39.1 = 3.58 moles

N° atoms = 3.58 * 6.02x10²³ atoms = 2.16x10²⁴ atoms of K.

The abundance of the ⁴⁰K is 0.012% so the atoms of this isotope would be:

N = 2.16x10²⁴ * (0.012/100) = 2.59x10²⁰ atoms of ⁴⁰K.

With this number, and the half life rate, we can determine the number of decay atoms in a year (λ) using the following expression:

λ = ln2 / t(1/2)

λ = ln2 / 1.3x10⁹ = 5.33x10⁻¹⁰ year⁻¹

This number, multiplied by the number of atoms:

R = 5.33x10⁻¹⁰ * 2.59x10²⁰ = 1.38x10¹¹ atoms/year

Now, each atom of K gives an average energy of 1 MeV, so with the atoms we have:

E = 1.38x10¹¹ * 1x10⁶ eV = 1.38x10¹⁷ eV

This value can be expressed in Joules so:

E = 1.38x10¹⁷ eV * (1 J / 6.24x10¹⁸ eV) = 0.022 J

Finally, we can use (1) to get the dose in Gy:

Gy = 0.022 / 70

Gy = 3.14x10⁻⁴ Gy

he electric field is dependent on the distance between the plates. false: The voltage of a connected charged capacitor decreases when the plate area is increased. false: The voltage of a disconnected charged capacitor increases when the plates are brought closer together.

Answers

Answer:

False.

Explanation:

The voltage of a disconnected charged capacitor decreases when the plates are brought closer together because the capacitance is inversely proportional to the area. If the area between plates decreases, its capacitance increases and vice versa. There is direct relationship between voltage of a disconnected charged capacitor and plates. If the distance between plates decreases, the voltage of a disconnected charged capacitor is also decreases while on the other hand, if the distance between plates increases, the voltage of a disconnected charged capacitor is also increases.

The lens labelled (B) has radius 16.5cm on the curved side. Using the shape of the lens to assign the sign of the radius, calculate the focal length of the lens. Give your answer with the correct positive or negative sign using the usual convention for lenses.

Answers

Answer:

convex       f = 33 cm

concave     f = -33 cm

Explanation:

In geometric optics the focal length of a lens is given by

         [tex]\frac{1}{f} = ( n-1) \ (\frac{1}{R_2} - \frac{1}{R_1} )[/tex]

where n is the refractive index of the medium, R₁ and R₂   are the focal lengths on each side of the lens.

In this case one of the sides is flat so its focal length is infinite, if the lens is convex the focal length is positive, convergent lens and if it is concave the focal length is negative, divergent lens.

         [tex]\frac{1}{f} = (n-1) \ \frac{1}{R}[/tex]

the refractive index of the glass is n = 1.5

let's calculate

         1 / f = (1.5 -1) 1 / 16.5

         1 / f = 0.03030

          f = 33 cm

convex       f = 33 cm

concave     f = -33 cm

Gold-198 is a radioactive isotope, and it has a half-life of about 2.5 days.
You have 100 grams of Gold-198. How many grams remain after 20 days?

3.125 grams
1.5625 grams
0.78125 grams
0.390625 grams

Answers

Answer: 0.390625 grams

Explanation:

A half-life of an element is the amount of time that it takes for half the mass of the element to decay.

Gold-198 having a half-life of 2.5 days therefore means that every 2.5 days, the mass is cut in half.

If there are 20 days, find out how many half-life periods there are:

= 20 / 2.5

= 8 periods

The half life is:

= Original mass * 0.5^number of half-life periods

= 100 * 0.5⁸

= 0.390625 grams

Explanation:

yes. The shortest object is traveling the fastest.

No,their lengths be used to rank the objects according to their speeds. Because the length of the object is depended on the frame of reference of the observer. Option A is correct.

What is frame of reference?

A frame of reference is a mathematical and physical coordinate system whose origin, direction, and scale are given by a collection of reference points.

Because the length of each item is determined by the observer's frame of reference, If an observer is stationary yet traveling at near light speed, he will feel length contraction.

Otherwise, the length of the items should not alter for everyday pace.A spectator sees four identical objects flying at almost the speed of light.

No,their lengths be used to rank the objects according to their speeds. Because the length of the object is depended on the frame of reference of the observer.

Answers

Answer:

M = 1.90 Kg

Explanation:

Given data: mass = 2.5 Kg

radius R = 0.8 m

angular velocity ω = 1.5 rad/s

Angular momentum L =0.5×Iω^2

Where, I  is the moment of inertia of the spinning disc.

I = 0.5MR^2

I = 0.5×2.5×0.8^2

I = 0.8 Kg/m^2

Then L = 0.5×0.8×1.5^2 = 0.8×2.25 = 0.9 Kg-m^2/sec

Let unknown mass be M

New mass of disc = (2.5+M) Kg, R = 0.8 m

New I = 0.5(2.5+M)(0.8)^2

Since, angular momentum is conserved

Angular momentum before = angular momentum after

0.5×0.5(2.5+M)(0.8)^2×(1.13)^2 = 0.9

Solving for M we get

0.204304(2.5+M)=0.9

M = 1.90 Kg

In any given wave, when the frequency of the wave doubles (f = 2f), which of the following other changes would also take place?
A The wavelength would double (λ = 2λ).
B The velocity would double (v = 2v).
C The wavelength would be half (λ = λ/2).
D The velocity would be half (v = v/2).

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is -

B. The velocity would double (v = 2v).

C. The wavelength would be half (λ = λ/2).

Explanation:

A wave has a speed or velocity that is related to the wavelength of the wave and the frequency of the wave and this relationship can be represented by the following equation-

Wave velocity V = Wavelength (λ) * Frequency (f)

Frequency (f) = Velocity (V) / Wavelength(λ).

The frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional and frequency and velocity are directly proportional to each other.

So, if f = 2f then,

putting value in the formula,

2f = 2v/λ, which means, f = 2v and f = λ/2

when the frequency is doubled, the wavelength will be halved and velocity will be doubled.

The law of conservation of Energy states that energy cannot be destroyed but can only be converted or transformed from one form to another. Therefore, the sum of the initial kinetic energy and potential energy is equal to the sum of the final kinetic energy and potential energy.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Ki + Ui = Kf + Uf .......equation 1

Where;

Ki and Kf are the initial and final kinetic energy respectively.

Ui and Uf are the initial and final potential energy respectively.

The First Law of Thermodynamics is another way to describe the Law of Conservation of Energy. Typically, the First Law of Thermodynamics states that the change of internal energy of a system is equal to the sum of external work and heat spent on the system.

Mathematically, the First Law of Thermodynamics is given by the formula;

ΔU = Q − W

Where;

ΔU represents the change in internal energy of a system.

Q represents the net heat transfer in and out of the system.

W represents the sum of work (net work) done on or by the system.

Hence, the direction in which any thermodynamic process in nature can spontaneously occur isn't stated by the First Law of Thermodynamics.

Jerry Burger from Santa Clara University managed to do the seemingly impossible — he conducted a partial replication of the infamous Milgram experiment. Read on for valuable advice, and look for similar coverage in upcoming Observers. These are the first words I said to Muriel Pearson, producer for ABC News’ Primetime, when she approached me with the idea of replicating Stanley Milgram’s famous obedience studies. Milgram’s work was conducted in the early 1960s before the current system of professional guidelines and IRBs was in place. It is often held up as the prototypic example of why we need policies to protect the welfare of research participants. Milgram’s participants were placed in an emotionally excruciating situation in which an experimenter instructed them to continue administering electric shocks to another individual despite hearing that person’s agonizing screams of protest. The studies ignited a debate about the ethical treatment of participants. And the research became, as I often told my students, the study that can never be replicated. Hope this helps!

Hence, the survivor ship must be on the Y axis and the resources on the X axis.

Here the resources include the number of seeds produced.

hence, the higher is the number of seeds (resource), the lower is the survivorship (future fecundity)

Hence, option A is correct

The tension in a pulley belt is 31 N when stationary. Calculate power in watts transmitted when the belt is on the point of slipping on the smaller wheel. the wheel is 379 mm diameter and the coefficient of friction is 0.3. The angle of lap is 1610. The wheel speed is 1,547 rev/min.

Answers

Answer:

P = 756.84 Watts

Explanation:

As the tension is stationary or innitial, T₀ = 31 N, the mean would be:

T₁ + T₂ / 2 = T₀    (1)

T₁ + T₂ = 2 * 31 = 62 N

Now, with the following expression we can determine the linear speed:

V = πWD  (2)

W: angular speed of the wheel  (rev/s)

D: diameter of the wheel (in meters)

W = 1547 rev/min * (1 min/60 s) = 25.78 rev/s

V = π * 25.78 * 0.379 = 30.695 m/s

We also know that:

T₁ / T₂ = exp (μθ)

T₁ = T₂ exp(μθ)   (3)

We already have those values so replacing:

T₁ = T₂ exp(0.3 * 161 * π/180)

T₁ = 2.32T₂   (4)

We can now replace (4) in (1) like this:

T₁ + T₂ = 62 N

2.32T₂ + T₂ = 62

3.32T₂ = 62

T₂ = 18.67 N

Which means that T₁:

T₁ = 2.32(18.67)

T₁ = 43.33 N

Finally, the power can be determined using the following expression:

P = (T₁ - T₂)V  (5)       Replacing we have:

P = (43.33 - 18.67)*30.695

P = 756.84 Watts

b. Where is the final image located?
c. What is the overall magnification of the lens pair, considered as a single optical instrument?

Answers

Answer:

A)    q₂ = 75.98 cm, B)     q₂' = 115.38 cm, C)

Explanation:

A) This is an exercise in geometric optics, as the two lenses are separated by a greater distance than their focal lengths from each lens, they must be worked as independent lenses.

Lens 1. More to the left

let's use the constructor equation

         [tex]\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{p} + \frac{1}{q}[/tex]

where f is the focal length, p and q are the distance to the object and the image, respectively,

We must assume a distance to the object to perform the calculation, suppose that the object is 50 cm from lens 1 that is further to the left of the system.

          [tex]\frac{1}{q_1} = \frac{1}{f} - \frac{1}{p}[/tex]

         [tex]\frac{1}{q_1} = \frac{1}{14.8} - \frac{1}{50}[/tex]  

          1 / q₁ = 0.04756

           q₁ = 21.0227 cm

this image is the object for the second lens that has f₂ = 14.8 cm

the distance must be measured from the second lens

          p₂ = 39.4 -q₁

          p₂ = 39.4 -21.0227

          p₂ = 18.38 cm

let's use the constructor equation

            1 / q₂ = 1 / f - 1 / p2

             

             [tex]\frac{1}{q_2} = \frac{1}{14.8} - \frac{1}{18.38}[/tex]

            [tex]\frac{1}{q_2}[/tex] = 0.01316

            q₂ = 75.98 cm

measured from the second lens

B) the position of the final image with respect to the first lens is

            q₂’= q₂ + 39.4

             q₂'= 75.98 +39.4

              q₂' = 115.38 cm

C) the magnification of a lens is

              m = - q / p

in this case the image measured from lens 2 is q2 = 75.98 cm

the distance to the object from the first lens is p1 = 50cm

          m = - 75.98 / 50

A 400 kg satellite is in a circular orbit at an altitude of 500 km above the Earth's surface. Because of air friction, the satellite eventually falls to the Earth's surface, where it hits the ground with a speed of 1.60 km/s. How much energy was transformed into internal energy by means of air friction

Answers

Answer:

E = 1.45 x 10⁹ J = 1.45 GJ

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy:

Potential Energy Lost by Satellite = Kinetic Energy + Internal Energy

[tex]mgh = \frac{1}{2} mv^2 + E\\\\E = mgh - \frac{1}{2} mv^2[/tex]

where,

E = Internal Energy = ?

m = mass = 400 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h = height = 500 km = 500000 m

v = speed on ground = 1.6 km/s = 1600 m/s

Therefore,

[tex]E = (400\ kg)(9.81\ m/s^2)(500000\ m)-\frac{1}{2} (400\ kg)(1600\ m/s)^2\\E = 1.962\ x\ 10^9\ J - 0.512\ x\ 10^9\ J[/tex]

E = 1.45 x 10⁹ J = 1.45 GJ
