A system gains 767 kJ of heat, resulting in a change in internal energy of the system equal to +151 kJ. How much work is done?
Answer:
The work done on the system is -616 kJ
Explanation:
Given;
Quantity of heat absorbed by the system, Q = 767 kJ
change in the internal energy of the system, ΔU = +151 kJ
Apply the first law of thermodynamics;
ΔU = W + Q
Where;
ΔU is the change in internal energy
W is the work done
Q is the heat gained
W = ΔU - Q
W = 151 - 767
W = -616 kJ (The negative sign indicates that the work is done on the system)
Therefore, the work done on the system is -616 kJ
Determine the orbital period (in hours) of an observation satellite in a circular orbit 1,787 km above Mars.
Answer:
T = 3.14 hours
Explanation:
We need to find the orbital period (in hours) of an observation satellite in a circular orbit 1,787 km above Mars.
We know that the radius of Mars is 3,389.5 km.
So, r = 1,787 + 3,389.5 = 5176.5 km
Using Kepler's law,
[tex]T^2=\dfrac{4\pi ^2}{GM}r^3[/tex]
M is mass of Mars, [tex]M=6.39\times 10^{23}\ kg[/tex]
So,
[tex]T^2=\dfrac{4\pi ^2}{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 6.39\times 10^{23}}\times (5176.5 \times 10^3)^3\\\\T=\sqrt{\dfrac{4\pi^{2}}{6.67\times10^{-11}\times6.39\times10^{23}}\times(5176.5\times10^{3})^{3}}\\\\T=11334.98\ s[/tex]
or
T = 3.14 hours
So, the orbital period is 3.14 hours

An object is placed in a room where the temperature is 20 degrees C. The temperature of the object drops by 5 degrees C in 4 minutes and by 7 degrees C in 8 minutes. What was the temperature of the object when it was initially placed in the room
Answer:
28.3°C
Explanation:
Using
T(t) = (T(0) - 20)*(e^(-k*t)) + 20
for some positive number k, and some initial temperature T(0).
Boundary conditions:
T(4) = T(0) - 5 _______ (i)
T(8) = T(0) - 7 _______ (ii)
==> solving for T(0) and k :
(i):
(T(0) - 20)*(e^(-k*4)) + 20 = T(0) - 5 ==>
(T(0) - 20)*(e^(-k*4)) = T(0) - 20 - 5
(T(0) - 20)*(e^(-k*4)) = (T(0) - 20) - 5
5 = (T(0) - 20) - (T(0) - 20)*(e^(-k*4))
5 = (T(0) - 20) * ( 1 - e^(-k*4) )
(ii):
(T(0) - 20)*(e^(-k*8)) + 20 = T(0) - 7
(T(0) - 20)*(e^(-k*8)) = (T(0) - 20) - 7
7 = (T(0) - 20) - (T(0) - 20)*(e^(-k*8))
7 = (T(0) - 20) * (1 - e^(-k*8))
In both results, subsitute x = e^(-4k) and C = (T(0) - 20)
(i): 5 = C * (1 - x)
(ii): 7 = C * (1 - x^2) = C * (1-x)*(1+x)
Substitute C*(1-x) from (i) into (ii):
(ii): 7 = 5*(1+x) ==> (1+x) = 7/5 ==> x = 2/5
back into (i):
(i): 5 = C * (1 - 2/5) ==> 5 = C * 3/5 ==> C = 25/3
C = T(0) - 20 ==>
T(0) = C + 20 = 25/3 + 20 = 25/3 + 60/3 = 85/3
= 28.3°C

Answer:
9. (B) ¼ Mv²
10. (A) √(3gL)
11. 20 N
12. 5 m/s²
Explanation:
9. The rotational kinetic energy is:
RE = ½ Iω²
RE = ½ (½ MR²) (v/R)²
RE = ¼ Mv²
10. Energy is conserved.
Initial potential energy = rotational energy
mgh = ½ Iω²
Mg(L/2) = ½ (⅓ ML²) ω²
g(L/2) = ½ (⅓ L²) ω²
gL = ⅓ L² ω²
g = ⅓ L ω²
ω² = 3g / L
ω = √(3g / L)
The velocity of the top end is:
v = ωL
v = √(3gL)
11. Sum of torques about the hinge:
∑τ = Iα
-(Mg) (L/2) + (T) (r) = 0
T = MgL / (2r)
T = (3.00 kg) (10 m/s²) (1.60 m) / (2 × 1.20 m)
T = 20 N
12. Sum of forces on the block in the -y direction:
∑F = ma
mg − T = ma
Sum of torques on the pulley:
∑τ = Iα
TR = (½ MR²) (a / R)
T = ½ Ma
Substitute:
mg − ½ Ma = ma
mg = (m + ½ M) a
a = mg / (m + ½ M)
Plug in values:
a = (3.0 kg) (10 m/s²) / (3.0 kg + ½ (6.0 kg))
a = 5 m/s²

Suppose a certain laser can provide 82 TW of power in 1.1 ns pulses at a wavelength of 0.24 μm. How much energy is contained in a single pulse?
Answer:
The energy contained in a single pulse is 90,200 J.
Explanation:
Given;
power of the laser, P = 82 TW = 82 x 10¹² W
time taken by the laser to provide the power, t = 1.1 ns = 1.1 x 10⁻⁹ s
the wavelength of the laser, λ = 0.24 μm = 0.24 x 10⁻⁶ m
The energy contained in a single pulse is calculated as;
E = Pt
where;
P is the power of each laser
t is the time to generate the power
E = (82 x 10¹²)(1.1 x 10⁻⁹)
E = 90,200 J
Therefore, the energy contained in a single pulse is 90,200 J
an electromagnetic wave propagates in a vacuum in the x-direction. In what direction does the electric field oscilate
Answer:
The electric field can either oscillates in the z-direction, or the y-direction, but must oscillate in a direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation, and the direction of oscillation of the magnetic field.
Explanation:
Electromagnetic waves are waves that have an oscillating magnetic and electric field, that oscillates perpendicularly to one another. Electromagnetic waves are propagated in a direction perpendicular to both the electric and the magnetic field. If the wave is propagated in the x-direction, then the electric field can either oscillate in the y-direction, or the z-direction but must oscillate perpendicularly to both the the direction of oscillation of the magnetic field, and the direction of propagation of the wave.
Given a double slit apparatus with slit distance 2 mm, what is the theoretical maximum number of bright spots that I would see when I shine light with a wavelength 500 nm on the slits
Answer:
The values is [tex]m_{max} = 8001 \ bright \ spots[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The slit distance is [tex]d = 2 \ mm = 2*10^{-3} \ m[/tex]
The wavelength is [tex]\lambda = 500 \ nm = 500 *10^{-9} \ m[/tex]
At the first half of the screen from the central maxima
The number of bright spot according to the condition for constructive interference is
[tex]n = \frac{d * sin (\theta )}{\lambda}[/tex]
For maximum number of spot [tex]\theta = 90^o[/tex]
So
[tex]n = \frac{2*10^{-3} * sin (90 )}{500 *10^{-9}}[/tex]
[tex]n =4000[/tex]
Now for the both sides plus the central maxima we have
[tex]m_{max} = 2 * n + 1[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]m_{max} = 2 * 4000 + 1[/tex]
[tex]m_{max} = 8001 \ bright \ spots[/tex]
A damped oscillator is released from rest with an initial displacement of 10.00 cm. At the end of the first complete oscillation, the displacement reaches 9.05 cm. When 4 more oscillations are completed, what is the displacement reached
Answer:
The displacement is [tex]A_r = 6.071 \ cm[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The initial displacement is [tex]A_o = 10 \ cm[/tex]
The displacement at the end of first oscillation is [tex]A_d = 9.05 \ cm[/tex]
Generally the damping constant of this damped oscillator is mathematically represented as
[tex]\eta = \frac{A_d}{A_o}[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]\eta = \frac{9.05}{10}[/tex]
[tex]\eta = 0.905[/tex]
The displacement after 4 more oscillation is mathematically represented as
[tex]A_r = \eta^4 * A_d[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]A_r = (0.905)^4 * (9.05)[/tex]
[tex]A_r = 6.071 \ cm[/tex]
Answer:
Displacement reached is 6.0708 cm
Explanation:
Formula for damping Constant "C"
[tex]C^n=\frac{A_2}{A_1}[/tex] where n=1,2,3,........n
Where:
[tex]A_2[/tex] is the displacement after first oscillation
[tex]A_1\\[/tex] is the initial Displacement
[tex]A_1=10\ cm\\A_2=9.05\ cm\\[/tex]
In our case, n=1.
[tex]C=\frac{9.05}{10}\\C=0.905[/tex]
After 4 more oscillation, n=4:
[tex]C^4=\frac{A_6}{A_2}[/tex]
Where:
[tex]A_6[/tex] is the final Displacement after 4 more oscillations.
[tex]A_6=(0.905)^4*(9.05)\\A_6=6.0708\ cm[/tex]
Displacement reached is 6.0708 cm

The charger for your electronic devices is a transformer. Suppose a 60 Hz outlet voltage of 120 V needs to be reduced to a device voltage of 3.0 V. The side of the transformer attached to the electronic device has 45 turns of wire.
How many turns are on the side that plugs into the outlet?
Answer:
N₁ = 1800 turns
So, the side of the transformer that plugs into the outlet has 1800 turns.
Explanation:
The transformer turns ratio is given by the following equation:
V₁/V₂ = N₁/N₂
where,
V₁ = Voltage of outlet = 120 V
V₂ = Device Voltage = 3 V
N₁ = No. of turns on outlet side = ?
N₂ = No. of turns on side of device = 45
Therefore,
120 V/3 V = N₁/45
N₁ = (40)(45)
N₁ = 1800 turns
So, the side of the transformer that plugs into the outlet has 1800 turns.

A radar pulse returns 3.0 x 10-4 seconds after it is sent out, having been reflected by an object. What is the distance between the radar antenna and the object
Answer:
The distance is [tex]D = 45000 \ m[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The time taken is [tex]t = 3.0 *10^{-4 } \ s[/tex]
Generally the speed of the radar is equal to the speed of light and this has a value
[tex]c = 3.0*10^{8} \ m /s[/tex]
Now the distance covered by the to and fro movement of the radar is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]d = c * t[/tex]
=> [tex]d = 3.0*10^{8} * 3.0*10^{-4}[/tex]
=> [tex]d = 90000 \ m[/tex]
Therefore the distance between the radar antenna and the object is
[tex]D = \frac{d}{2}[/tex]
[tex]D = \frac{ 90000}{2}[/tex]
[tex]D = 45000 \ m[/tex]
The distance between the radar antenna and the object will be 45000 m.
What is a radar antenna?A radar antenna is a device that sends out radio waves and listens for their reflections. The ability of an antenna to identify the exact direction in which an item is placed determines its performance.
The given data in the problem is;
t is the time= 3.0 x 10⁻⁴
d is the distance between the radar antenna and the object=?
c is the peed of light=3×10⁸ m/sec
The radar's speed is usually equal to the speed of light, and this has a value. The distance covered by the radars to and fro movement is now calculated mathematically as
[tex]\rm d= c \times t \\\\ \rm d= 3.0 \times 10^8 \times 3.0 \times 10^{-4} \\\\ d=90000 \ m[/tex]
As a result, the radar antenna's distance from the target is
[tex]\rm D=\frac{d}{2} \\\\ \rm D=\frac{90000}{2} \\\\ \rm D=\ 45000 \ m[/tex]
Hence the distance between the radar antenna and the object will be 45000 m.

What is the reason for the increase and decrease size of the moon and write down in a paragraph.
Answer:
The reason for the increase or decrease of the moon is due to the angular perception of the moon.
Explanation:
Also called lunar illusion, this phenomenon is due to the position in which the moon is, it can be at the zenith or on the horizon, both distances are different from each other with respect to the position of the person.
The zenith is the highest part of the sky and the horizon the lowest.
When there are landmarks such as trees, buildings or mountains on the horizon, the illusion of closeness is given and the illusion of distance is misinterpreted.
But when looking up at the sky as there is no reference point there will be a failure in the perception of size.

Answer:
Length of pipe organ(L) = 0647 m (Approx)
Explanation:
Given:
Temperature (T) = 14°C
Fundamental frequency (F) = 262 Hz
Speed of sound (v) = 331 + 0.60(T) m/s
Find:
Length of pipe organ(L)
Computation:
Speed of sound (v) = 331 + 0.60(14) m/s

A small insect viewed through a convex lens is 1.5 cmcm from the lens and appears 2.5 times larger than its actual size. Part A What is the focal length of the lens
Answer:
The focal length of the lens is 2.5 cm
Explanation:
Use the two equations for thin lenses combined: the one for magnification (m), and the one that relates distances of object [tex]d_o[/tex], of image [tex]d_i[/tex], and focal length;
[tex]m=\frac{h_i}{h_o} =-\frac{d_i}{d_o} \\ \\\frac{1}{d_i} +\frac{1}{d_o} =\frac{1}{f}[/tex]
Since we know the value of the magnification (m), we can write the image distance in terms of the object distance, and then use it to replace the image distance in the second equation:
[tex]m=-\frac{d_i}{d_o} \\2.5=-\frac{d_i}{d_o}\\d_i=-2.5\,d_o[/tex]
then, solving for the focal distance knowing that the object distance is 1.5 cm:
[tex]\frac{1}{d_i} +\frac{1}{d_o} =\frac{1}{f}\\-\frac{1}{2.5\,d_o} +\frac{1}{d_o} =\frac{1}{f}\\(2.5\,d_o\,f)\,(-\frac{1}{2.5\,d_o} +\frac{1}{d_o}) =\frac{1}{f}\,(2.5\,d_o\,f)\\-f+2.5\,f=2.5\,d_o\\1.5\,f=2.5\,d_o\\f=\frac{2.5\,d_o}{1.5} \\f=\frac{2.5\,(1.5\,\,cm)}{1.5}\\f=2.5\,\,cm[/tex]
A person, with his ear to the ground, sees a huge stone strike the concrete pavement. A moment later two sounds are heard from the impact: one travels in the air and the other in the concrete, and they are 0.50 s apart. The speed of sound in air is 343 m/s, and in concrete is 3000 m/s.
Required:
How far away did the impact occur?
Answer:
The distance is [tex]d = 193.6 \ m[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The time interval between the sounds is k[tex]t_1 = k + t_2[/tex] = 0.50 s
The speed of sound in air is [tex]v_s = 343 \ m/s[/tex]
The speed of sound in the concrete is [tex]v_c = 3000 \ m/s[/tex]
Generally the distance where the collision occurred is mathematically represented as
[tex]d = v * t[/tex]
Now from the question we see that d is the same for both sound waves
So
[tex]v_c t = v_s * t_1[/tex]
Now
So [tex]t_1 = k + t[/tex]
[tex]v_c t = v_s * (t+ k)[/tex]
=> [tex]3000 t = 343* (t+ 0.50)[/tex]
=> [tex]3000 t = 343* (t+ 0.50)[/tex]
=> [tex]t = 0.0645 \ s[/tex]
So
[tex]d = 3000 * 0.0645[/tex]
[tex]d = 193.6 \ m[/tex]
Compare the value for the inductor when the current was increasing vs decreasing. Which statement matches the expected results. The inductance should be the same regardless of whether the current is increasing or decreasing. The inductance should be greater while the current is increasing. The inductance should be greater while the current is decreasing.
Answer:
see that the inductance depends on the variation with respect to time of the current, therefore it is independent, increase decreases,
Explanation:
The express for inductance is
[tex]E_{L}[/tex]= L dI / dt
L = E_{L} (di / dt)⁻¹
where L is the inductance, E_{L} the induced electromotive force, di/dt the variation of the current as a function of time.
When analyzing this equation we see that the inductance depends on the variation with respect to time of the current, therefore it is independent, increase decreases,
Correct answer the inductance must be the same regardless of whether the current increases or decreases.

The width is [tex]w = 4.0 \ m[/tex]
The charge is [tex]q = -10\mu C= -10*10^{-6} \ C[/tex]
The mass suspended in mid-air is [tex]m_a = 5.0 \mu g = 5.0 *10^{-6} \ g = 5.0 *10^{-9} \ kg[/tex]
Generally the electric field on the carpet is mathematically represented as
[tex]E = \frac{q}{ 2 * A * \epsilon _o}[/tex]
Where [tex]\epsilon _o[/tex] is the permittivity 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]E = \frac{-10*10^{-6}}{ 2 * (2 * 4 ) * 8.85*10^{-12}}[/tex]
[tex]E = -70621.5 \ N/C[/tex]
Generally the electric force keeping the dust particle on the air equal to the force of gravity acting on the particles
[tex]F__{E}} = F__{G}}[/tex]
=> [tex]q_d * E = m * g[/tex]
=> [tex]q_d = \frac{m * g}{E}[/tex]
=> [tex]q_d = \frac{5.0 *10^{-9} * 9.8}{70621.5}[/tex]
=> [tex]q_d = 6.94 *10^{-13} \ C[/tex]
