If a 140 lb. climber saved her potential energy as she descended from Mt. Everest (Elev. 29,029 ft) to Kathmandu (Elev. 4,600 ft), how long could she power her 0.4 watt flashlight

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 3217.79 hours.

Explanation:

Given, A 140 lb. climber saved her potential energy as she descended from Mt. Everest (Elev. 29,029 ft) to Kathmandu (Elev. 4,600 ft).

Power = 0.4 watt

Mass of climber = 140 lb

= 140 x 0.4535 kg  [∵ 1 lb= 0.4535 kg]

⇒ Mass of climber (m) = 63.50 kg

Let [tex]h_1=29,029\ ft= 8848.04\ m\ \ \ \ [ 1 ft=0.3048\ m ][/tex] and [tex]h_2= 4,600 ft = 1402.08\ m[/tex]

Now, Energy saved =[tex]mg(h_1-h_2)=(63.50)(9.8)(8848.04-1402.08)=4633620.91\ J[/tex]

[tex]\text{Power}=\dfrac{\text{energy}}{\text{time}}\\\\\Rightarrow 0.4=\dfrac{4633620.91}{\text{time}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{time}=\dfrac{4633620.91}{0.4}\approx11584052.28\text{ seconds}\\\\=\dfrac{11584052.28}{3600}\text{ hours}\ \ \ [\text{1 hour = 3600 seconds}]\\\\=3217.79\text{ hours}[/tex]

Hence, she can power her 0.4 watt flashlight for 3217.79 hours.

Answers

Answer:

3.18 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

Initial speed of the ball, u = 20 m/s

Angle of inclination, θ = 45°

Distance from the ball, h = 50 m

Using equations of projectile to solve this, we have

We start by finding the time of flight, T

T = 2Usinθ/g

T = (2 * 20 * sin45)/9.8

T = (40 * 0.7071) / 9.8

T = 28.284/9.8

T = 2.89 s

Next we find the Range, R

R = u²sin2θ/g

R = (20² * sin 90) / 9.8

R = (400 * 1) / 9.8

R = 400/9.8 = 40.82 m

Distance the gk must cover

40.82 - 50 m

-9.18 m or 9.18 m in the opposite direction.

Speed of the GK = d/t

9.18 / 2.89 = 3.18 m/s

Estimate the peak electric field inside a 1.2-kW microwave oven under the simplifying approximation that the microwaves propagate as a plane wave through the oven's 700-cm2 cross-sectional area.

Answers

Answer:

The peak electric field is  [tex]E_o = 3593.6 V/m[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The power is  [tex]P = 1.2 \ kW = 1.2 *10^{3} \ W[/tex]

     The cross-sectional area is  [tex]A = 700 \ cm^2 = 700 *10^{-4} \ m^2[/tex]

Generally the average intensity of the  microwave is mathematically represented as

      [tex]I = \frac{c * \epsilon _o * E_o^2 }{2}[/tex]

Where  [tex]c[/tex] is the speed of light with value  [tex]c = 3.0 *10^{8} \ m/s[/tex]

     and  [tex]\epsilon_o[/tex] is 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]

   also [tex]E_o[/tex] is the peak electric field.

Now making [tex]E_o[/tex] the subject [tex]E_o = \sqrt{\frac{2 * I }{ c * \epsilon _o } }[/tex]

But this intensity of the  microwave can also be represented mathematically as

       [tex]I = \frac{ P }{A }[/tex]

substituting values

      [tex]I = \frac{ 1.2 *10^{3} }{700 *10^{-4} }[/tex]]  

      [tex]I = 17142.85 \ W/m^2[/tex]

So

      [tex]E_o = \sqrt{\frac{2 * 17142.85 }{ 3.0*10^{8}] * 8.85*10^{-12} } }[/tex]

      [tex]E_o = 3593.6 V/m[/tex]

The peak electric field of the microwave is 3,593.1 V/m.

The given parameters;

power of the wave, P = 1.2 kW = 1,200 Warea of the plane, A = 700 cm²

The intensity of the wave is calculated as follows;

[tex]I = \frac{P}{A} \\\\I = \frac{1,200}{700 \times 10^{-4}} \\\\I = 17,142.86 \ W/m^2[/tex]

The peak electric field is calculated as follows;

[tex]E_o = \sqrt{\frac{2I}{c \varepsilon _o} } \\\\E_o = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 17,142.86}{3\times 10^8 \times 8.85 \times 10^{-12}} } \\\\E_o = 3,593.1 \ V/m[/tex]

Thus, the peak electric field of the microwave is 3,593.1 V/m.

A 3 kg rock is swung in a circular path and in a vertical plane on a 0.25 m length string. At the top of the path, the angular velocity is 11 rad/s. What is the tension in the string at that point

Answers

Answer:

The tension in the string at that point is 90.75 N

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the object, m = 3 kg

length of string, r = 0.25 m

the angular velocity, ω = 11 rad/s

The tension on string can be equated to the centrifugal force on the object;

T = mω²r

Where;

T is the tension in the string

m is mass of the object

ω is the angular velocity

r is the radius of the circular path

T = 3 x (11)² x 0.25

T = 90.75 N

Therefore, the tension in the string at that point is 90.75 N

a wire of a certain material has resistance r and diameter d a second wire of the same material and length is found to have resistance r/9 what is the diameter of the second wire g

Answers

Answer:

d₂ = 3dThe diameter of the second wire is 3 times that of the initial wire.

Explanation:

Using the formula for calculating the resistivity of an object to find the diameter.

Resistivity P = RA/L

R is the resistance of the material

A is the cross sectional area

L is the length of the material

Since A = πd²/4

P = R( πd²/4)/L

P = Rπd²/4L ... 1

If the second wire of the same material and length is found to have resistance R/9, the resistivity of the second material will be;

P₂ = (R/9)A₂/L₂

P₂ = (R/9)(πd₂²/4)/L₂

P₂ = (Rπd₂²/36)/L₂

P₂ = (Rπd₂²)/36L₂

Since the length and resistivity are the same;

P = P₂  and L =L₂

Equating 1 and 2;

Rπd²/4L =  (Rπd₂²)/36L₂

Rπd²/4L =  (Rπd₂²)/36L

d² = d₂²/9

d₂² = 9d²

Taking the square root of both sides;

√d₂² = √9d²

d₂ = 3d

Therefore the diameter of the second wire is 3 times that of the initial wire

The length of a certain wire is doubled and at the same time its radius is also doubled. What is the new resistance of this wire

Answers

Answer:

R' = R/2

Therefore, the new resistance of the wire is twice the value of the initial resistance.

Explanation:

Consider a wire with:

Resistance = R

Length = L

Area = A = πr²

where, r = radius

ρ = resistivity

Then:

R = ρL/A

R = ρL/πr²   --------------- equation 1

Now, the new wire has:

Resistance = R'

Resistivity = ρ

Length = L' = 2 L

Radius = r' = 2r

Area = πr'² = π(2r)² = 4πr²

Therefore,

R' = ρL'/πr'²

R' = ρ(2 L)/4πr²

R' = (1/2)(ρL/πr²)

using equation 1:

R' = R/2

Therefore, the new resistance of the wire is twice the value of the initial resistance.

Answers

Answer:

1) on the surface you can see the slits with equal spacing, on the one hand and on the other hand it is smooth.

2)If the angle is zero we see a bright light called undispersed light

For different angles we see the colors of the spectrum

3) must be able to see the well-collimated light emission source

Explanation:

1) A diffraction grating (diffraction grating) is a surface on which a series of indentations are drawn evenly spaced.

These crevices or lines are formed by copying a standard metal net when the plastic is melted and after hardening is carefully removed, or if the nets used are a copy of the master net.

The network can be of two types of transmission or reflection, in teaching work the most common is the transmission network, on the surface you can see the slits with equal spacing, on the one hand and on the other hand it is smooth.

The number of lines per linear mm determines which range of the spectrum a common value can be observed to observe the range of viable light is 600 and 1200 lines per mm.

2) when looking through the diffraction grating what we can observe depends on the relative angle between the eye and the normal to the network.

If the angle is zero we see a bright light called undispersed light

For different angles we see the colors of the spectrum, if it is an incandescent lamp we see a continuum with all the colors in the visible range and if it is a gas lamp we see the characteristic emission lines of the gas.

3) Before mounting the grid on the spectrometer, we must be able to see the well-collimated light emission source, this means that it is clearly observed.

The spectrometers have several screws to be able to see the lamp clearly, this is of fundamental importance in optical experiments.

Suppose a 185 kg motorcycle is heading toward a hill at a speed of 29 m/s. The two wheels weigh 12 kg each and are each annular rings with an inner radius of 0.280 m and an outer radius of 0.330 m.
Randomized Variables
m = 185 kg
v = 29 m/s
h = 32 m
A. How high can it coast up the hill. if you neglect friction in m?
B. How much energy is lost to friction if the motorcycle only gains an altitude of 33 m before coming to rest?

Answers

Answer:

a) Height reached before coming to rest is 42.86 m

b) Energy lost to friction is 17902.45 J

Explanation:

mass of the motorcycle = 185 kg

speed of the towards the hill = 29 m/s

The wheels weigh 12 kg each

Wheels are annular rings with an inner radius of 0.280 m and outer radius of 0.330 m

a) To go up the hill, the kinetic energy of motion of the motorcycle will be converted to the potential energy it will gain in going up a given height

the kinetic energy of the motorcycle is given as

[tex]KE[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}[/tex]

where m is the mass of the motorcycle

v is the velocity of the motorcycle

[tex]KE[/tex]  = [tex]\frac{1}{2}*185*29^{2}[/tex] = 77792.5 J

This will be converted to potential energy

The potential energy up the hill will be

[tex]PE[/tex] = mgh

where m is the mass

g is acceleration due to gravity 9.81 m/s^2

h is the height reached before coming to rest

[tex]PE[/tex] = 185 x 9.81 x m = 1814.85h

equating the  kinetic energy to the potential energy for energy conservation, we'll have

77792.5 = 1814.85h

height reached before coming to rest  = 77792.5/1814.85 = 42.86 m

b) if an altitude of 33 m was reached before coming to rest, then the potential energy at this height is

[tex]PE[/tex] = mgh

[tex]PE[/tex]  = 185 x 9.81 x 33 = 59890.05 J

The energy lost to friction will be the kinetic energy minus this potential energy.

energy lost = 77792.5 - 59890.05 = 17902.45 J

A) The motorcycle can coast up the hill by ; 42.86m  

B) The amount of energy lost to friction :  17902.45 J

A) Determine how high the motorcycle can coast up the hill when friction is neglected

apply the formula for kinetic and potential energies

K.E = 1/2 mv²  ---- ( 1 )

P.E = mgH  ---- ( 2 )

As the motorcycle goes uphiLl the kinetic energy is converted to potential energy.

∴ K.E = P.E

1/2 * mv² = mgH

∴ H = ( 1/2 * mv² ) / mg  ---- ( 3 )

where ; m = 185 kg ,  v = 29 m/s ,  g = 9.81

Insert values into equation ( 3 )

H ( height travelled by motorcycle neglecting friction ) =  42.86m  

B) Determine how much energy is lost to friction if the motorcycle attains 33m before coming to rest  

P.E = mgh = 185 * 9.81 * 33  = 59890.05 J

where : h = 33 m , g = 9.81

K.E = 1/2 * mv² = 77792.5 J   ( question A )

∴ Energy lost ( ΔE ) =  ( 77792.5  - 59890.05 ) = 17902.45 J

Hence we can conclude that The motorcycle can coast up the hill by ; 42.86m , The amount of energy lost to friction :  17902.45 J.

choices:


A. 45∘

B. 20∘

C. 30∘

D. 40∘

E. 50∘

Answers

Answer:

B. 20°

Explanation:

Range in projectile is defined as the distance covered in the horizontal direction. It is expressed as R = U²sin2Ф/g

U is the initial velocity of the body (in m/s)

Ф is the angle of projection

g is the acceleration due to gravity.

Given U = 14m/s, g = 9.8m/s and range R = 15 m

we will substitute this value into the formula to get the projection angle Ф as shown;

15 = 15²sin2Ф/9.8

15*9.8 = 15²sin2Ф

147 = 225sin2Ф

sin2Ф = 147/225

sin2Ф = 0.6533

2Ф = sin⁻¹0.6533

2Ф = 40.79°

Ф = 40.79°/2

Ф = 20.39° ≈ 20°

Hence, the range is greatest at angle 20°

Answers

Answer:

The  acceleration is  [tex]a = 6.2 m/s^2[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  angle which the inclined plane make with horizontal is  [tex]\theta = 0.44 \ rad[/tex]

     The frictional coefficients are  [tex]\mu_{\mu s} = 0.61[/tex] and  [tex]\mu_{\mu k} = 0.23[/tex]

     

The force acting on the  crate  is mathematically represented as  

        [tex]f = F_w + F_N[/tex]

Here f is the net force at which the crate is sliding down the plane which is mathematically represented as

      [tex]f = ma[/tex]

        [tex]F_w[/tex] is the force due to weight which is mathematically represented as

        [tex]F_w = mg sin (\theta)[/tex]

       and  [tex]F_N[/tex] the force due to friction which is mathematically represented as

       [tex]F_N = \mu_{\mu k } * mg cos(\theta )[/tex]

So  

     [tex]ma = mgsin(\theta ) + \mu_{\mu k} mg cos(\theta )[/tex]

      [tex]a = gsin(\theta ) + \mu_{\mu k } * g cos(\theta)[/tex]

substituting values

Calculate the distance between the first and the second equipotential surfaces, and between the 20th and 21st equipotential surfaces. (c) What does the changing spacing of the surfaces tell you about the electric field?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use that the potential is created by the charge inside the equinoctial surface and just like in Gauss's law we can consider all the charge concentrated in the center.

Therefore the potential on the ferric surface is

        V = k Q / r

where k is the Coulomb constant, Q the charge of the sphere and r the distance from the center to the point of interest

a) On the surface the potential

        V = 9 10⁹ Q / 0.5

        V = 18 10⁹ Q

Unfortunately you did not write the value of the load, suppose a value to complete the calculations Q = 1 10⁻⁷ C, with this value the potential on the surfaces V = 1800 V

b) The equipotential surfaces are concentric spheres, let's look for the radii for some potentials

for V = 1300V let's find the radius

             r = k Q / V

             r = 9 109 1 10-7 / 1300

             r = 0.69 m

other values ​​are shown in the following table

V (V)      r (m)

1800     0.5

1300     0.69

 800      1,125

 300     3.0

In other words, we draw concentric spheres with these radii and each one has a potential difference of 500V

Scattered light in the atmosphere is often partially polarized. The best way to determine whether or not light from a particular direction in the sky shows polarization is to

Answers

Answer:

Rotate a piece of polaroid film about an axis perpendicular to the ray while looking through it in that sky direction.

Explanation:

Polarization involves constraining a transverse wave e.g light waves to vibrate in one phase only. Since unpolarized light vibrates in all direction during propagation. Polarization can be achieved by a polaroid.

A polaroid is a material the make transverse waves to vibrate in one direction after passing through it. It has various applications in sun glasses, wind shield of a car etc.

If the slit of the polaroid is perpendicular to the polarized light from a particular direction in the sky, there would be no propagation of the light. But when it is parallel to the polarized light from the direction, the light would propagate through the polaroid.

Which of the following options is correct and why?
Consider a spherical Gaussian surface of radius R centered at the origin. A charge Q is placed inside the sphere. To maximize the magnitude of the flux of the electric field through the Gaussian surface, the charge should be located
(a) at x = R/2, y = 0, z = 0.
(b) at the origin.
(c) at x = 0, y = 0, z = R/2.
(d) at x = 0, y = R/2, z = 0.
(e) The charge can be located anywhere since flux does not depend on the position of the charge as long as it is inside the sphere.

Answers

Answer:

Option (e) = The charge can be located anywhere since flux does not depend on the position of the charge as long as it is inside the sphere.

Explanation:

So, we are given the following set of infomation in the question given above;

=> "spherical Gaussian surface of radius R centered at the origin."

=> " A charge Q is placed inside the sphere."

So, the question is that if we are to maximize the magnitude of the flux of the electric field through the Gaussian surface, the charge should be located where?

The CORRECT option (e) that is " The charge can be located anywhere since flux does not depend on the position of the charge as long as it is inside the sphere." Is correct because of the reason given below;

REASON: because the charge is "covered" and the position is unknown, the flux will continue to be constant.

Also, the Equation that defines Gauss' law does not specify the position that the charge needs to be located, therefore it can be anywhere.

what is the mass of an oil drop having two extra electrons that is suspended motionless by the field between the plates

Answers

Answer:

 m = 3,265 10⁻²⁰  E

Explanation:

For this exercise we can use Newton's second law applied to our system, which consists of a capacitor that creates the uniform electric field and the drop of oil with two extra electrons.

             ∑ F = 0

             [tex]F_{e}[/tex] - W = 0

             

the electric force is

             F_{e} = q E

   

as they indicate that the charge is two electrons

             F_{e} = 2e E

The weight is given by the relationship

             W = mg

we substitute in the first equation

               2e E = m g

         

               m = 2e E / g

     

let's put the value of the constants

              m = (2 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ / 9.80) E

 

               m = 3,265 10⁻²⁰  E

 The value of the electric field if it is a theoretical problem must be given and if it is an experiment it can be calculated with measures of the spacing between plates and the applied voltage, so that the system is in equilibrium

Find the rms (a) electric and (b)magnetic fields at a point 2.00 m from a lightbulb that radiates 90.0 W of light uniformly in all directions.

Answers

Answer:

a) rms of electric field =

[tex]E_{rms}[/tex]= 25.97 V/m

b) rms of magnetic field

[tex]B_{rms}[/tex] = 8.655 × 10⁻⁸

[tex]B_{rms}[/tex] = 86.55nT

Explanation:

given

power p = 90.0W

distance d = 2.00m

Intensity = [tex]\frac{power}{area}[/tex]

I = [tex]\frac{p}{A}[/tex]

A = [tex]4\pi d^{2}[/tex]

I = [tex]\frac{p}{4\pi d^{2} }[/tex]

I = [tex]\frac{90}{4\pi(2^{2}) }[/tex]

I = 1.79 W/m²

a) [tex]I_{ave}[/tex] = ε₀ × [tex]E^{2} _{rms}[/tex] × c

where ε₀ is permittivity of free space = 8.85×10⁻¹²,  [tex]E^{2} _{rms}[/tex] is the root mean value and c is speed of light = 3×10⁸m/s

1.79 = 8.85×10⁻¹² × [tex]E^{2} _{rms}[/tex] × 3×10⁸

[tex]E^{2} _{rms}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1.79}{8.85x10^{-12} x 3x10^{8} }[/tex]

[tex]E^{2} _{rms}[/tex]= 674.1996

[tex]E_{rms}[/tex]= 25.97 V/m

b)for rems magnetic field

[tex]E_{rms}[/tex]= c [tex]B_{rms}[/tex]

[tex]B_{rms}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{E_{rms} }{c}[/tex]

[tex]B_{rms}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{25.97 V/m}{3x10^{8} }[/tex]

[tex]B_{rms}[/tex] = 8.655 × 10⁻⁸

[tex]B_{rms}[/tex] = 86.55nT

An alternating current is supplied to an electronic component with a warning that the voltage across it should never exceed 12 V. What is the highest rms voltage that can be supplied to this component while staying below the voltage limit in the warning?

Answers

Answer:

The highest rms voltage will be 8.485 V

Explanation:

For alternating electric current, rms (root means square) is equal to the value of the direct current that would produce the same average power dissipation in a resistive load

If the peak or maximum voltage should not exceed 12 V, then from the relationship

[tex]V_{rms} = \frac{V_{p} }{\sqrt{2} }[/tex]

where [tex]V_{rms}[/tex] is the rms voltage

[tex]V_{p}[/tex] is the peak or maximum voltage

substituting values into the equation, we'll have

[tex]V_{rms} = \frac{12}{\sqrt{2} }[/tex] = 8.485 V

If an astronomer wants to find and identify as many stars as possible in a star cluster that has recently formed near the surface of a giant molecular cloud (such as the Trapezium cluster in the Orion Nebula), what instrument would be best for her to use

Answers

Answer:

Infrared telescope and camera

Explanation:

An infrared telescope uses infrared light to detect celestial bodies. The infrared radiation is one of the known forms of electromagnetic radiation. Infrared radiation is given off by a body possessing some form of heat. All bodies above the absolute zero temperature in the universe radiates some form of heat, which can then be detected by an infrared telescope, and infrared radiation can be used to study or look into a system that is void of detectable visible light.

Stars are celestial bodies that are constantly radiating heat. In order to see a clearer picture of the these bodies, Infrared images is better used, since they are able to penetrate the surrounding clouds of dust, and have located many more stellar components than any other types of telescope, especially in dusty regions of star clusters like the Trapezium cluster.

A soap bubble is 115 nm thick and illuminated by white light incident perpendicular to its surface. What wavelength (in nm) and color of visible light is most constructively reflected, assuming the same index of refraction as water (nw = 1.33)?

Answers

Answer:

The  wavelength is [tex]\lambda = 612nm[/tex] and the color is  Orange

Explanation:

from the question we are told that  

     The thickness is [tex]D = 115 nm = 115 *10^{-9} \ m[/tex]

      The refractive index of water is  [tex]n_w = 1.33[/tex]

Generally the condition for constrictive interference is  

         [tex]2 * D = \frac{\lambda _n}{2}[/tex]

Where  [tex]\lambda _n[/tex] is the wavelength of light in a particular medium

  Now considering the medium of water(soap bubble )

 The  wavelength of light in this medium is mathematically represented as

          [tex]\lambda = \frac{\lambda }{n }[/tex]

So  

    [tex]2 * D = \frac{\frac{\lambda }{n} }{2}[/tex]

     [tex]2 * D = \frac{\lambda }{2 * n }[/tex]

=>    [tex]\lambda = 4 *n * D[/tex]

substituting values  

      [tex]\lambda = 4 *1.33 * 115*10^{-9}[/tex]

      [tex]\lambda = 6.118 *10^{-7} \ m[/tex]

     [tex]\lambda = 612nm[/tex]

The color is orange because the wavelength range of yellow is  

       590–625 nm

A small barge is being used to transport trucks across a river. If the barge is 10.00 m long by 8.00 m wide and sinks an additional 3.75 cm into the river when a loaded truck pulls onto it, determine the weight of the truck and load.

Answers

Answer: Weight truck+load = 29.4×[tex]10^{3}[/tex] N

Explanation: When an object floats in a fluid, there is an upward force, caused by the liquid, acting on the object that opposes the weight of the immersed object. This force is called Buyoyant Force and is determined by:

B = d*V*g

where

d is density of the fluid;

V is volume of liquid displaced due to the immersed object;

g is acceleration due to gravity;

For the truck, the system is in equilibrium, which means buyoyant force is equal weight. Then:

Volume displaced is

V = 10*8*0.0375

V = 3 [tex]m^{3}[/tex]

Density of water: 1000kg/[tex]m^{3}[/tex]

[tex]F_{P} = F_{B}[/tex]

[tex]F_{P}[/tex] = 1000*3*9.8

[tex]F_{P}[/tex] = 29.4×[tex]10^{3}[/tex] N

The weight of the truck and the load is 29.4×[tex]10^{3}[/tex] Newtons
