A rectangular painting measures 1.0 m tall along the y' axis and 3.0 m wide along the
x' axis. The painting is hung on the side wall of a spaceship which is moving passed
the Earth at a speed of 0.9c. Assume that the spaceship is moving along the (x, x')
direction.
a) What are the dimensions of the picture according to the captain of the
spaceship?
b) What are the dimensions of the picture as seen by an observer on the Earth?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 1 m tall, 3 m wide

b) 1 m tall, 1.31 m wide

Explanation:

According to the captain of the spaceship, the dimensions of the picture is the same i.e 1.0 m tall along the y' axis and 3.0 m wide along the x' axis.

b) The dimensions of the picture as seen by an observer on the Earth along the y axis will remain the same, 1.0 m tall, for the direction of the y axis is perpendicular to the spaceship movement.

The dimensions of the picture as seen by an observer on the Earth along the x axis will reduce if we are to go by the Lorentz contraction:

L(x) = L(x)' * √[1 - (v²/c²)]

where

L(x)' = the dimensions of the picture along the x axis on the spaceship,

v² = the speed of the spaceship and c² = the speed of light in the vacuum.

On substituting, we have

L(x) = 3 * √[1 - (0.81c²/c²)]

L(x) = 1.31 m

An astronaut is being tested in a centrifuge. The centrifuge has a radius of 11.0 m and, in starting, rotates according to θ = 0.260t2, where t is in seconds and θ is in radians. When t = 2.40 s, what are the magnitudes of the astronaut's (a) angular velocity, (b) linear velocity, (c) tangential acceleration, and (d) radial acceleration?

Answers

Answer:

a) 1.248 rad/s

b) 13.728 m/s

c) 0.52 rad/s^2

d) 17.132m/s^2

Explanation:

You have that the angles described by a astronaut is given by:

[tex]\theta=0.260t^2[/tex]

(a) To find the angular velocity of the astronaut you use the derivative og the angle respect to time:

[tex]\omega=\frac{d\theta}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}[0.260t^2]=0.52t[/tex]

Then, you evaluate for t=2.40 s:

[tex]\omega=0.52(2.40)=1.248\frac{rad}{s}[/tex]

(b) The linear velocity is calculated by using the following formula:

[tex]v=\omega r[/tex]

r: radius if the trajectory of the astronaut = 11.0m

You replace r and w and obtain:

[tex]v=(1.248\frac{rad}{s})(11.0m)=13.728\frac{m}{s}[/tex]

(c) The tangential acceleration is:

[tex]a_T=\alpha r\\\\\alpha=\frac{\omega^2}{2\theta}=\frac{(1.248rad/s)^2}{2(0.260(2.40s)^2)}=0.52\frac{rad}{s^2}[/tex]

(d) The radial acceleration is:

[tex]a_r=\frac{v^2}{r}=\frac{(13.728m/s)^2}{11.0m}=17.132\frac{m}{s^2}[/tex]

She is planning to drill a hole in the bar to place the axis of rotation 15 cm from one end. She wants you to tell her the period of this pendulum.

Answers

Answer:

The time period for this pendulum is 1.68 seconds

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

The length of the pendulum is measured from the axis of rotation to the center of mass of the bob of the pendulum

Now,

In this case, the length becomes:

L= 80 - 15+5

L = 70 cm

The time period = T = 2π √L/g

T = 2* 3.14 *√0.7/9.8

= 1.68 seconds

When a high‑energy photon passes near a heavy nucleus, a process known as pair production can occur. As a result, an electron and a positron (the electron's antiparticle) are produced. In one such occurrence, a researcher notes that the electron and positron fly off in opposite directions after being produced, each traveling at speed 0.941c. The researcher records the time that it takes for the electron to travel from one position to another within the detector as 15.7 ns. How much time would it take for the electron to move between the same two positions as measured by an observer moving along with the positron?

Answers

Answer:

1.47*10^{-8}s

Explanation:

You first calculate the distance traveled by the electron:

[tex]x=vt\\\\x=(0.941(3*10^8m/s))(15.7*10^{-9}s)=4.43m[/tex]

Next, you calculate the relative speed as measure by an observer in the positron, of the electron:

[tex]u'=\frac{u+v}{1+\frac{uv}{c^2}}\\\\u'=\frac{0.941c+0.941c}{1+\frac{(0.941)^2c^2}{c^2}}\\\\u'=0.99c[/tex]

with this relative velocity you calculate the time:

[tex]t=\frac{x}{u'}\\\\t=\frac{4.43m}{0.99c}=1.47*10^{-8}s[/tex]

The current in the wires of a circuit is 60 milliamps. If the resistance of the circuit were doubled (with no change in voltage), then it’s new current would be _____ milliamps

Answers

Answer:30

Explanation:

Current=60 milliamps

Current=(voltage)/(resistance)

60=(voltage)/(resistance)

Doubling the resistance means multiplying both sides by 1/2

60x1/2=(voltage)/(resistance) x 1/2

30=(voltage)/2(resistance)

Therefore the resistance would be 30 milliamp if we double the resistance

MEF Tutorial 2 Q3
A train with a maximum speed of 29.17 m/s has an
acceleration rate of 0.25 m/s2 and a deceleration
rate of 0.7 m/s2. Determine the minimum running
time, if it starts from rest at one station and stops
at the next station 7 km away.​

Answers

Answer:

The minimum running time is 319.47 s.

Explanation:

First we find the distance covered and time taken by the train to reach its maximum speed:

We have:

Initial Speed = Vi = 0 m/s    (Since, train is initially at rest)

Final Speed = Vf = 29.17 m/s

Acceleration = a = 0.25 m/s²

Distance Covered to reach maximum speed = s₁

Time taken to reach maximum speed = t₁

Using 1st equation of motion:

Vf = Vi + at₁

t₁ = (Vf - Vi)/a

t₁ = (29.17 m/s - 0 m/s)/(0.25 m/s²)

t₁ = 116.68 s

Using 2nd equation of motion:

s₁ = (Vi)(t₁) + (0.5)(a)(t₁)²

s₁ = (0 m/s)(116.68 s) + (0.5)(0.25 m/s²)(116.68 s)²

s₁ = 1701.78 m = 1.7 km

Now, we shall calculate the end time and distance covered by train, when it comes to rest on next station.

We have:

Final Speed = Vf = 0 m/s    (Since, train is finally stops)

Initial Speed = Vi = 29.17 m/s     (The train must maintain max. speed for min time)

Deceleration = a = - 0.7 m/s²

Distance Covered to stop = s₂

Time taken to stop = t₂

Using 1st equation of motion:

Vf = Vi + at₂

t₂ = (Vf - Vi)/a

t₂ = (0 m/s - 29.17 m/s)/(- 0.7 m/s²)

t₂ = 41.67 s

Using 2nd equation of motion:

s₂ = (Vi)(t₂) + (0.5)(a)(t₂)²

s₂ = (29.17 m/s)(41.67 s) + (0.5)(- 0.7 m/s²)(41.67 s)²

s₂ = 607.78 m = 0.6 km

Since, we know that the rest of 7 km, the train must maintain the maximum speed to get to the next station in minimum time.

The remaining distance is:

s₃ = 7 km - s₂ - s₁

s₃ = 7 km - 0.6 km - 1.7 km

s₃ = 4.7 km

Now, for uniform speed we use the relation:

s₃ = vt₃

t₃ = s₃/v

t₃ = (4700 m)/(29.17 m/s)

t₃ = 161.12 s

So, the minimum running time will be:

t = t₁ + t₂ + t₃

t = 116.68 s + 41.67 s + 161.12 s

t = 319.47 s

A 25kg box in released on a 27° incline and accelerates down the incline at 0.3 m/s2. Find the friction force impending its motion? What is the coefficient of kinetic friction?
A block is given an initial speed of 3m/s up a 25° incline. Coefficient of friction

Answers

Answer:

a)  μ = 0.475 , b)   μ = 0.433

Explanation:

a) For this exercise of Newton's second law, we create a reference system with the x-axis parallel to the plane and the y-axis perpendicular to it

X axis

     Wₓ - fr = m a

the friction force has the expression

     fr = μ N

y Axis

     N - [tex]W_{y}[/tex] = 0

let's use trigonometry for the components the weight

     sin 27 = Wₓ / W

     Wₓ = W sin 27

     cos 27 = W_{y} / W

     W_{y} = W cos 27

     N = W cos 27

     W sin 27 - μ W cos 27 = m a

     mg sin 27 - μ mg cos 27 = m a

      μ = (g sin 27 - a) / (g cos 27)

      very = tan 27 - a / g sec 27

      μ = 0.510 - 0.0344

      μ = 0.475

b) now the block starts with an initial speed of 3m / s. In Newton's second law velocity does not appear, so this term does not affect the result, the change in slope does affect the result

         μ = tan 25 - 0.3 / 9.8 sec 25

         μ = 0.466 -0.03378

         μ = 0.433

Two forces are applied on a body. One produces a force of 480-N directly forward while the other gives a 513-N force at 32.4-degrees above the forward direction .Find the magnitude and direction(relative to forward direction of the resultant force that these forces exert on the body)​

Answers

Answer:

F = (913.14 , 274.87 )

|F| = 953.61 direction 16.71°

Explanation:

To calculate the resultant force you take into account both x and y component of the implied forces:

[tex]\Sigma F_x=480N+513Ncos(32.4\°)=913.14N\\\\\Sigma F_y=513sin(32.4\°)=274.87N[/tex]

Thus, the net force over the body is:

[tex]F=(913.14N)\hat{i}+(274.87N)\hat{j}[/tex]

Next, you calculate the magnitude of the force:

[tex]F=\sqrt{(913.14N)+(274.87N)^2}=953.61N[/tex]

and the direction is:

[tex]\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{274.14N}{913.14N})=16.71\°[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

h(t) = -9.8t² / 2 + 125t + 500

for t > 0.

At t = 0, the rocket is at height h = 500m, at a velocity of Vo = 125m/s.

We want to find the maximum height reached by rocket

Using mathematics maxima and minima

let find the turning point when dh/dt = 0

dh/dt = -9.8t + 125

dh / dt = 0 = -9.8t + 125

9.8t = 125

t = 125 / 9.8

t = 12.76s

Let find the turning point to know if this time t = 12.76 is maximum or minimum point

Let find d²h / dt²

d²h / dt² = -9.8

Since, d²h/dt² < 0, then, at t = 12.76s is the maximum points.

Then, the maximum height reached is

h =  -9.8t² / 2 + 125t + 500

h =  -9.8(12.76)² / 2 + 125(12.76) + 500

h = -797.80 + 1595 + 500

h = 1297.2 m

The maximum height reached is 1297.2 m

From the attachment, the maximum height is 1297.2m at t = 12.76sec.

The package comes to a stop in the cart after 4 seconds. What is:a) the speed of the package just before it lands in the cart

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The package leaves the chute with a speed of 3 m/s, and lands in the cart after falling for 0.75 seconds . During .75 second duration . package undergoes free fall due to which additional vertical velocity is added

velocity added = a x t

= 9.8 x .75

= 7.35 m /s

Total vertical velocity

= 3 sin27 + 7.35

= 8.71 m /s

Horizontal component = 3 cos 27

= 2.67 m /s

If v be the resultant velocity of these components

v² = 2.67² + 8.71²

v² = 7.13 + 75.86

v = 9.11 m /s .

Explanation:

Force between two charges of q₁ and q₂ at distance d is given by the expression

F = k q₁ q₂ / d₂

Here force between charge q₁ = - 15 x 10⁻⁹ C and q₃ = 47 x 10⁻⁹ C when distance between them d = (1.66 - 1.24 ) = .42 mm

k = 1/ 4π x 8.85 x 10⁻¹²

putting the values in the expression

F = 1/ 4π x 8.85 x 10⁻¹²  x - 15 x 10⁻⁹ x 47 x 10⁻⁹ /( .42 x 10⁻³)²

= 9 x 10⁹ x  - 15 x 10⁻⁹ x 47 x 10⁻⁹ /( .42 x 10⁻³)²

= 35969.4 x 10⁻³ N .

force between charge q₂ =  34.5 x 10⁻⁹ C and q₃ = 47 x 10⁻⁹ C when distance between them d = ( 1.24 - 0 ) = 1.24 mm .

putting the values in the expression

F = 1/ 4π x 8.85 x 10⁻¹²  x  34.5 x 10⁻⁹ x 47 x 10⁻⁹ /( .42 x 10⁻³)²

= 9 x 10⁹ x  - 34.5 x 10⁻⁹ x 47 x 10⁻⁹ /( .42 x 10⁻³)²

= 82729.6  x 10⁻³ N

Both these forces will act in the same direction towards the left (away from the origin towards - ve x axis)

Total force = 118699 x 10⁻³

Distributions of electric charges in a cell play a role in moving ions into and out of a cell. In this situation, the motion of the ion is affected by two forces: the electric force due to the non-uniform charge distribution in the cell membrane, and the resistive force (viscosity) due to colliding with the fluid molecules. In order to begin our analysis of this, let's consider a toy model in which the ion is moving in response to electric forces alone.

Charges in a cell membrane are distributed along the opposite sides of the membrane approximately uniformly. This leads to an (on the average) constant electric field inside the membrane. A simple model that gives this kind of field is two large parallel plates close together. The field between the plates is approximately constant pointing from the negative to the parallel plate. This results in a charge feeling a constant force anywhere between the plates (sort of like flat-earth gravity turned sideways). Outside of the plates the electric fields from the two plates cancel and there is no force.

2. The electric field between the plates (inside the membrane) is about 107 N/C and the thickness of the membrane is about 7 nm. Estimate:

Answers

Answer:

A i. E = 9.62 × 10⁻⁷ J/s

ii. The absorbed dose is 4.81 × 10⁻⁶ Gy

iii. The equivalent dose is  3.37 × 10⁻⁴ rem/s

iv.  t = 593471.81 seconds

B. i. 4.025 × 10¹⁵/s

ii. 0.512 mW

C. 7218092.2 seconds

D. i. 6.3 × 10⁻¹ J

ii. 1.4 × 10⁻² W

iii. 1.57 × 10³ Curie

E. 0.129 Ω

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

Mass of tumor = 0.20 kg

Activity of Cobalt-60 = 2.60 × 10⁻⁴ Ci

Photon energy = 1.25 MeV

(i) The energy, E, delivered to the tumor is given by the relation;

[tex]E = \frac{1}{2}\left (Number \, of \, decay / seconds \right )\times \left (Energy \, of \, photon \right )[/tex]

[tex]E = \frac{1}{2}\left (2.6\times 10^{-4}Ci )\times \left (\frac{3.70\times 10^{10}decays/s}{1 Ci} \right )\times 1.25\times 10^{6}eV\times \frac{1.6\times 10^{-19}J}{1eV}[/tex]

E = 9.62 × 10⁻⁷ J/s

(ii) The equation for absorbed dose is given as follows;

Absorbed dose, D, in Grays Gy = (Energy Absorbed Joules J)/Mass kg

Therefore, absorbed dose = (9.62 × 10⁻⁷ J/s)/( kg) = 4.81 × 10⁻⁶ Gy

1 Gray = 100 rad

4.81 × 10⁻⁷ Gy = 100 × 4.81 × 10⁻⁶ = 4.81 × 10⁻⁴ rad/s

(iii) Equivalent dose, H, is  given by the relation;

H = D × Radiation factor, [tex]w_R[/tex]

∴ H = 0.7 × 4.81 × 10⁻⁴ rad/s = 3.37 × 10⁻⁴ Sv = 3.37 × 10⁻⁴ rem/s

(iv) The exposure time required for an equivalent dose of 200 rem is given as follows;

[tex]\dot{H} = \dfrac{H}{t}[/tex]

Therefore;

[tex]t= \dfrac{200}{{3.37 \times 10^{-4}} } = 593471.81 \, s[/tex]

∴ t = 6.9 days

B. The number of electrons ejected is given by the relation;

[tex]N = \frac{P}{E} = \frac{P \times \lambda}{hc}[/tex]

[tex]N = \dfrac{2.0 \times 10^{-3} \times 400 \times 10^{-9}}{6.626 \times 10^{-34} \times 3 \times 10^8} = 4.025 \times 10^{15}/s[/tex]

(ii) The power carried by the electron

The energy carried away by the electrons is given by the relation;

[tex]KE_e = hv - \Phi[/tex]

[tex]KE_e = \frac{6.626 \times 10^{-34} \times 3 \times 10^8}{400 \times 10^{-9}} - 2.31 \times \frac{1.6 \times 10 ^{-19} }{1}[/tex]

[tex]KE_e = 4.9695 \times 10^{-19} - 3.696 \times 10 ^{-19} = 1.2735 \times 10^{-19} J[/tex]

Power, P[tex]_e[/tex], carried away by the electron = 4.025 × 10¹⁵ × 1.2735 × 10⁻¹⁹ = 0.512 mW

C. The given parameters are;

d = 1.19 mm, ∴ r = 1.19/2 = 0.595 × 10⁻³ m

l = 50 mm = 5 × 10⁻³ m

V = 500 ml = 5 × 10⁻⁴ m³

η = 0.0027 Pa

p = 1,900 Pa.

[tex]\dfrac{V}{t} = \dfrac{\pi }{8} \times \dfrac{P/l}{\eta } \times r^4[/tex]

[tex]t = \dfrac{8\times \eta\times V\times l }{\pi \times P \times r^4}[/tex]

[tex]t = \dfrac{8\times 0.0027 \times 5 \times 10^{-4} \times 5 \times 10^{-2} }{\pi \times 1900 \times (0.595 \times 10^{-4} )^4}[/tex]

t = 7218092.2 seconds

D) i. Energy absorbed is given by the relation;

E = m×D

Where:

D = 35 Gray = 35 J/kg

m = 18 g = 18 × 10⁻³ kg

∴ E = 35 × 18 × 10⁻³ = 6.3 × 10⁻¹ J

ii. Total time for treatment = 15 × 5 = 75 minutes

Energy absorbed = 6.3 × 10⁻¹ × 100 = 63 J

Power = Energy(in Joules)/Time (in seconds)

∴ Power = 63/(75×60) = 1.4 × 10⁻² W

iii. Whereby the power is provided by 0.5% of the photons emitted by the source, we have;

[tex]P_{source}= \frac{P_{beam}}{0.005} =\frac{0.0014}{0.005} =0.28 \, W[/tex]

1 MeV = 1.60218 × 10⁻¹³ J

0.03 MeV = 0.03 × 1.60218 × 10⁻¹³ J = 4.80654 × 10⁻¹⁵ J/photon

Therefore, the number of disintegration per second = 0.28 J/s ÷  4.80654 × 10⁻¹⁵ J/photon = 5.83 × 10¹³ disintegrations per second

1 Curie = 3.7 × 10¹⁰  disintegrations per second

Hence, 5.83 × 10¹³ disintegrations per second = (5.83 × 10¹³)/(3.7 × 10¹⁰) Curie

= 1.57 × 10³ Curie

E. The parameters given are;

Density of water = 1000 kg/m³

Volume of water = 250 ml = 0.00025 m³

Initial temperature, T₁, = 25°C

Final temperature, T₂, = 100°C

Change in temperature, ΔT = 100 - 25 = 75°

Specific heat capacity of the water = 4200 J/kg/°C

Mass of water = Density × Volume = 1000 × 0.00025 = 0.25 kg

∴ Heat supplied = 4200 × 0.25 × 75 = 78,750 J

Time to heat the water = 45.0 sec

Therefore, power = Energy/time = 78750/45 = 1750 W

The formula for electrical power = I²R =VI = V²/R

Therefore, where V = 15.0 V, we have;

15²/R = 1750

R = 15²/1750 = 0.129 Ω.

The resistance of the heater = 0.129 Ω.

If A = (6i-8j) units, B = (-8i-3j) units, and C = (26i-19j) units, determine a and b
such that aA + bB + C = 0

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

given equation

aA + bB + C = 0

Putting the given values

a(6i-8j) +b (-8i-3j) +(26i-19j) = 0

i ( 6a - 8b ) - j ( 8a + 3 b ) = - 26 i + 19 j

comparing the coefficients of i and j

6a - 8b = -26

8a + 3b = -19.

multiplying first equation by 4 and second equation by 3  

24a - 32 b = - 104

24a + 9b = -57

9b + 32b = -57 + 104

41 b = 47

b = 1.41

6 a - 8 x 1.41 = -26

6a = -14.72

a = - 2.45  

You would like to know whether silicon will float in mercury and you know that can determine this based on their densities. Unfortunately, you have the density of mercury in units of kilogram-meter^3 and the density of silicon in other units: 2.33 gram-centimeter^3. You decide to convert the density of silicon into units of kilogram-meter^3 to perform the comparison.
By which combination of conversion factors will you multiply 2.33 gram-centimeter^3 to perform the unit conversion?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

To convert gram / centimeter³ to kg / m³

gram / centimeter³

= 10⁻³ kg / centimeter³

= 10⁻³  / (10⁻²)³ kg / m³

= 10⁻³ / 10⁻⁶ kg / m³

= 10⁻³⁺⁶ kg / m³

= 10³ kg / m³

So we shall have to multiply be 10³ with amount in gm / cm³ to convert it into kg/m³

2.33 gram / cm³

= 2.33 x 10³ kg / m³ .

A 3.6 kg block moving with a velocity of 4.3 m/s makes an elastic collision with a stationary block of mass 2.1 kg.

(a) Use conservation of momentum and the fact that the relative speed of recession equals the relative speed of approach to find the velocity of each block after the collision. 1.1315 m/s (for the 3.6 kg block) 5.43 m/s (for the 2.1 kg block)

(b) Check your answer by calculating the initial and final kinetic energies of each block. 33.282 J (initially for the 3.6 kg block) J (initially for the 2.1 kg block) J (finally for the 3.6 kg block) J (finally for the 2.1 kg block) Are the two total kinetic energies the same?

Answers

Answer:

a) Velocity of the block of mass 3.6 kg after collision = 1.13 m/s

Velocity of the block of mass 2.1 kg after collision = 5.43 m/s

b) Initial energy of the 3.6 kg block = 33.282 J

Final energy of the 3.6 kg block = 2.3 J

Initial energy of the 2.1 kg block = 0J

Final energy of the 2.1 kg block = 30.96 J

The two total kinetic energies are the same = 33.30 J

plz help me i will mark you as brainliest

Answers

Answer:

i) Mr. Dunn arrives to home first.

ii) 3 min

Explanation:

i. To find who arrives first to home you calculate the time, by using the following formula:

[tex]t=\frac{x}{v}[/tex]

x: distance

v: velocity

Mr. Dunn:

[tex]t=\frac{64.8km}{48km/h}=1.35h[/tex]

Mrs. Dunn:

[tex]t=\frac{81.2km}{58km/h}=1.4h[/tex]

Hence, Mr. Dunn arrives to home first.

ii. To calculate the difference in minutes, you convert hours to minutes:

[tex]1.35h*\frac{60min}{1h}=81min\\\\1.40h*\frac{60min}{1h}=84min\\\\\Delta\ t=(84-81)min=3min[/tex]

the difference between the times is 3min

(i) Mr. Dunn takes less time so he arrives at home first.

(ii) The second person arrives 3 min late.

Time taken to arrive home:

(i) We have to calculate the time taken to reach home by Mr. Dunn and Mrs. Dunn.

t = x/v

where x is the distance

and v is the velocity

Time taken by Mr. Dunn:

distance x = 64.8 km

speed v  = 48 km/h

t = 64.8 / 48

t = 1.35 h

Time taken by Mrs. Dunn:

distance x = 81.2 km

speed v  = 58 km/h

t' = 81.2 / 58

t' = 1.4 h

Hence, Mr. Dunn arrives at home first.

(ii) To calculate the difference in minutes, you convert hours to minutes:

The time taken by Mr. Dunn in minutes is:

t = 1.35×60 = 81 minutes

The time taken by Mrs. Dunn in minutes is:

t' = 1.4×60 = 84 minutes

the difference between the times is 3min
