Radar uses radio waves of a wavelength of 2.5 m . The time interval for one radiation pulse is 100 times larger than the time of one oscillation; the time between pulses is 10 times larger than the time of one pulse. What is the shortest distance to an object that this radar can detect
Answer:
The minimum distance to the object that the radar can detect is 124.995 m
Explanation:
Here, we are to calculate the shortest distance to an object the radar in the question can detect.
Mathematically;
v = c/λ
Where v is the frequency, c is the speed of light and λ is the wave length
Thus;
v = (3 * 10^8)/2.5 = 1.2 * 10^8 Hz
Mathematically, the time period
t = 1/v = 1/(1.2 * 10^8) = 0.000000008333 = 8.333 * 10^-9 sec
From the question, we are told that the transmitting time is 100 times a single oscillation
Transmitting time = 100 * one oscillation
Hence Transmitting time = 100 * 8.33 * 10^-9 = 8.33 * 10-7
Mathematically;
Minimum distance =( Transmitting time * speed of light)/2 =
(8.33 * 10^-7 * 3 * 10^8)/2 = 124.995 m
Find the speed of the mobile after 4 seconds

A duck is 12 m from the edge of a pond. A student stands in the middle of the pond
and creates ripples that travel past the duck and towards the edge of the pond. The
ripples are produced uniformly at 2 ripples per second. The student determines that
the ripples take 3.0 seconds after they pass the duck to reach the edge of the pond.
Determine the wavelength of the ripples.
Answer:
The wavelength is 2 meters
Explanation:
The relationship between the frequency, the speed and the wavelength is given by the relation;
v = f × λ
The given parameters are;
The distance of the duck from the edge of the pond = 12 m
The number of ripples produced per second = Frequency, f = 2 Hz
The time it takes the ripple to reach the edge of the pond after travelling past the duck = 3 seconds
Therefore, speed of the wave, v = Distance/time = 12 m/(3 s) = 4 m/s
The wavelength, λ, is therefore;
λ = v/f = (4 m/s)/(2 Hz) = 2 meters.

Formulating a Hypothesis: Part II
Now you will focus on a second hypothesis. This
hypothesis can be very similar to the first, but this time
you want to focus only on the second variable in
question, speed. What could be a hypothesis that would
illustrate the relationship between speed and kinetic
energy? Use the format of "if.. then... because..." when
writing your hypothesis.
If we have a ball rolling its speed could determine the amount of
kinetic energy in it while in movement
Explanation:
The kinetic energy of an object is given by :
[tex]E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]
m is mass of the object
v is the speed of the object
It is clear from the above relation that the kinetic energy of the object is directly proportional to the product of mass and velocity.
The hypothesis can be :
If the speed of the object increased then its kinetic energy increase because kinetic energy is directly proportional to ist speed.
The kinetic energy of an object is given by :
m is mass of the object
v is the speed of the object
It is clear from the above relation that the kinetic energy of the object is directly proportional to the product of mass and velocity.
The hypothesis can be :
If the speed of the object increased then its kinetic energy increase because kinetic energy is directly proportional to its speed.
Unpolarized light, with an intensity of I0, is incident on an ideal polarizer. A second ideal polarizer is immediately behind the first and its axis of polarization is oriented at an angle of 60° relative to the first polarizer’s. How much of the light will be transmitted through the system?
Answer:
The light transmitted through the system will be 0.125*I₀.
Explanation:
The light transmitted through the system can be found using Malus Law:
[tex] I = I_{0}cos^{2}(\theta) [/tex] (1)
Where:
I: is the intensity of the light transmitted
I₀: is the initial intensity
θ is the angle relative to the first polarizer’s = 60°
Because the light transmitted by the first polarizer is dropped by half, the equation (1) results as:
[tex] I = \frac{I_{0}}{2}cos^{2}(\theta) [/tex]
[tex] I = \frac{I_{0}}{2}cos^{2}(60) [/tex]
[tex] I = 0.125I_{0} = \frac{1}{8}I_{0} [/tex]
Therefore, the light transmitted through the system will be 0.125*I₀.

Law of conservation
of momentum
Answer:
Explanation:
Law of conservation of momentum is applied in solving collision problem. When two body collides, their momentum after collision can be determined using the law.
The law States that the sum of momentum of two bodies before collision is equal to the sum of their momentum after collision. Before collision, both bodies moves with a different velocity while during some cases, the bodies moves with a common velocity after collision.
Whether they move with or without the same velocity depends on the type of collision that exists between them after the collision. After collision, some object sticks together and move with a common velocity while some doesn't.
If the bodies sticks together after collision, the type of collision that occur is inelastic (energy is not conserved) and if they splits after collision, the type of collision that occur is an elastic collision (energy is conserved).
Let m1 and m2 be the masses of the bodies
u1 and u2 be their velocities before collision
v1 and v2 be their velocities after collision.
According to the law;
m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2
Note that momentum = mass × velocity of the body.
If three cars, each of mass 1000 kg , occupy the NE, SE, and SW corners, determine the coordinates of the CM of the loaded ferryboat relative to the center of the raft. Take the origin to be at the CM of the raft.
Answer:

= 1.01 m
Y = sum( y's * mass)/sum( masses)
= [(0)*(6400) + (9.5)*(1000) +(-9.5)*(1000) + (-9.5)*(1000)]/ (6400+1000+1000+1000)

You are given three pieces of wire that have different shapes (dimensions). You connect each piece of wire separately to a battery. The first piece has a length L and cross-sectional area A. The second is twice as long as the first, but has the same thickness. The third is the same length as the first, but has twice the cross-sectional area. Rank the wires in order of which carries the most current (has the lowest resistance) when connected to batteries with the same voltage difference.
A. Most Current
B. Wire of length L and area 2A
C. Wire of length L and area A
D. Wire of length 2L and area A
E. Least Curren
Answer:
Explanation:
Resistance of first wire
R₁ = ρL / A where ρ is specific resistance
for second wire the resistance
R₂ = ρ2L / A = 2 ρL / A
For third wire
R₃ = ρL /2 A
The resistance is in the order
R₂ > R₁ > R₃
So , current will be maximum in R₃
I₃ > I₁ > I₂
Where I₁ , I₂ and I₃ is current in first , second and third wire .
For the electric circuit given below, calculate: 3 (i) the equivalent resistance of the circuit, (ii) the total current drawn from the battery and (iii) the voltage across 7Ω resistor.
Answer:
1)31/3Ω
2)18/31A
3)4.06V
Explanation:
According to the diagram and 10 Ω resistors are parallel to each other, parallel resistor can be calculated using the formula below
1/R= 1/R1 + 1/R2
But we know R1= 5 Ω and R2= 10 Ω
1/R= 1/5 + 1/10
R= 10/3 Ω
=3.33 Ω
Then if we follow the given figure, 10/3 Ω and 7Ω are now in series then
Req = 10/3 +7
Req= 31/3 Ω
Therefore, equivalent resistance = 31/3 Ω
According to ohms law we know that V= IR
Then I= V/R
Where I= current
R= resistance
V= voltage
I= 6/(31/3)
I= 18/31A
We can now calculate the voltage accross the resistor which is
V=(18/31)× 7
V=4.06V
Therefore, the voltage accross the 7 ohm resistor is 4.06V

The plates of a parallel-plate capacitor are maintained with a constant voltage by a battery as they are pushed together, without touching. How is the amount of charge on the plates affected during this process
Answer:
The amount of charge increases.
Explanation:
For a capacitor that has its plates still connected to a battery, the voltage on the capacitor remains constant. If the distance between the two plates of this capacitor is decreased, the capacitance will increase, and then the charge on the plate will increase in accordance with the relationship
Q =CV
From this relationship, if V is held constant, then Q has to increase for C to increase also.

When we double the distance between a source of light and the
surface on which it falls, the amount of illumination on the surface
decreases to
(what fraction) of the
original illumination.
The amount of lighting on a surface drops to (1/4) of the initial illumination when the distance between a light source and the surface it falls on is doubled.
What is illumination?The amount of light or luminous flux that falls on a surface is known as illumination. It is expressed as lux or lumens per square meter.
The square of the distance has an inverse relationship with the light intensity;
[tex]\rm I = \frac{1}{r^2}[/tex]
Where,
I is the light intensity
r is the distance
Let r is the distance and I is the sound intensity for case 2;
r' = 2r
[tex]\rm I' = \frac{1}{(2r)^2} \\\\ I' = \frac{1}{4r^2} \\\\ I' = \frac{I}{4}[/tex]
When we double the distance between a source of light and the surface on which it falls, the amount of illumination on the surface decreases to(1/2) of the original illumination.
Hence the value of the fraction is 1/4.

On January 22, 1943, in Spearfish, South Dakota, the temperature rose from −4.00°F to 45.0°F over the course of two minutes (the current world record for the fastest recorded temperature change). By how much did the temperature change on the Celsius scale?
Answer:
The change on the Celsius scale is 27.22 °C.
Explanation:
The conversion of Fahrenheit to Celsius is the following:
[tex]T = \frac{5}{9}(^{\circ} F - 32)[/tex]
So, we need to convert T₁ and T₂ from °F to °C:
[tex]T_{1} = \frac{5}{9}(^{\circ} F - 32) = \frac{5}{9}(- 4 - 32) = -20 ^{\circ} C[/tex]
[tex]T_{2} = \frac{5}{9}(^{\circ} F - 32) = \frac{5}{9}(45 - 32) = 7.22 ^{\circ} C[/tex]
Hence, the change on the Celsius scale is:
[tex] \Delta T = T_{2} - T_{1} = 7.22 - (-20) = 27.22 ^{\circ} C [/tex]
Therefore, the change on the Celsius scale is 27.22 °C.

identify the motion when a car is moving with constant speed along a curve
Answer:
Uniform circular motion
Explanation:
When a car is moving with constant speed along a curve, it will said to have uniform circular motion. The speed of the car remains constant in this case. But its velocity keeps on changing. The velocity can be calculated by drawing the tangent on the circle. Hence, the motion of the car is uniform circular motion.
Answer:
Uniform motion
Explanation:
The motion when a car is moving with constant speed along a curve is an example of uniform motion.
A car moving at constant speed covers equal distances in equal intervals of time. The average speed remains the same in uniform motion.
The curve defines the path of the motion and the speed remains constant.

3.) [15 points] A physics teacher is on the west side of a small lake and wants to swim across and up at a point directly across from his starting point. He notices that there is a current in the lake and
that a leaf floating by him travels 4.2m [S] In 5.0s. He is able to swim 1.9 m/s in calm water,
(a) What direction will he have to swim in order to arrive at a point directly across from his position?
Answer:
The teacher should swim in a direction 29.24° North of East
Explanation:
Given that the there is a water current across the lake, and the physics teacher intends to swim directly across the lake, the direction the physics teacher will have to swim is found as follows;
The speed of the water current is given by the speed of the floating leaf traveling with the water current
Distance traveled by the leaf = 4.2 m South
Time of travel of the leaf = 5.0 s
Speed of leaf = 4.2/5 = 0.84 m/s = Speed of the water current
Swimming peed of the teacher, v = 1.9 m/s
To swim directly across the lake, the teacher has to swim slightly in the opposite direction of the water current, the y-component of the teacher's swimming speed should be equal to and opposite that of the speed of the water current.
Y-component of v = v×sin(θ), where θ is the angle of the direction, the teacher should swim
Therefore;
1.9 × sin(θ) = 0.84
sin(θ) = 0.84/1.9 = 0.44
θ = 26.24°
That is the teacher should swim in a direction 29.24° North of East.
To cross the lake the teacher has to swim in a direction 29.24° North of the East
Finding the direction of speed required:
The speed of the water current can be derived from the speed of the floating leaf :
The distance traveled by the leaf L = 4.2 m South
Time taken T = 5s
So, the speed of the leaf is:
u = 4.2/5
u = 0.84 m/s South
So, the speed of the current is 0.84 m/s South
Now, it is given that the speed of the teacher is, v = 1.9 m/s East
To cross the lake the speed of the teacher must be in a Northeast direction so that the North component of the speed of the teacher cancels out the speed of the current which is directed towards the South.
Let, the speed of the teacher makes an angle of θ from the EAST.
So, the North component is given by:
v(north) = vsinθ
it must be equal to the speed of the current:
vsinθ = u
1.9 × sinθ = 0.84
sinθ = 0.84/1.9
sinθ = 0.44
θ = 26.24°
The teacher should swim in a direction 29.24° North of East.

What is heat transfer?Heat always flows from a higher temperature body to a low-temperature body. Heat transfer, any or all of several kinds of phenomena, is considered a mechanism, that conveys energy and entropy from one location to another.
The specific mechanisms are usually referred to as convection, thermal radiation, and conduction (see thermal conduction).
Conduction involves the transfer of energy and entropy between adjacent molecules, usually a slow process.
Convection involves the movement of heated fluid, such as air, usually a fairly rapid process.
Radiation refers to the transmission of energy as electromagnetic radiation from its emission at a heated surface to its absorption on another surface, a process requiring no medium to convey the energy
