A spring is hung from the ceiling. When a block is attached to its end, it stretches 2.5 cm before reaching its new equilibrium length. The block is then pulled down slightly and released. What is the frequency of oscillation?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.99Hz

Explanation:

Using F= -mx ( spring force)

At equilibrium the gravitational force will be balanced by the spring force so mg= kx

K= mg/ 0.25 N/m

But

Frequency f= 1/2pi √g/0.25

Frequency is 0.99Hz

Answer 2

The block is pulled down slightly and released so, Frequency of oscillation is 3.15 Hz

Frequency of oscillation based problem:

What information do we have?

Length starched = 2.5 cm

F = Kx

We know that

F = mg

So,

mg = Kx

K/m = g/x

[tex]f=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{g}{x} }\\f=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{9.8}{0.025} }[/tex]

Frequency of oscillation = 3.15 Hz

A single-slit diffraction pattern is formed on a distant screen. Assuming the angles involved are small, by what factor will the width of the central bright spot on the screen change if the slit width is doubled

Answers

Answer:

y ’= y / 2

thus when the slit width is doubled the pattern width is halved

Explanation:

The diffraction of a slit is given by the expressions

          a sin θ = m λ

where a is the width of the slit, λ is the wavelength and m is an integer that determines the order of diffraction.

          sin θ = m λ / a

If this equation

          a ’= 2 a

we substitute

          2 a sin θ'= m λ

          sin θ'= (m λ / a)  1/2

          sin θ ’= sin θ / 2

           

We can use trigonometry to find the width

         tan θ = y / L

as the angle is small

         tan θ = sin θ / cos θ = sin θ

         sin θ = y / L  

         

we substitute

        y ’/ L = y/L   1/2

        y ’= y / 2

thus when the slit width is doubled the pattern width is halved

In Young's 2-slit interference experiment, the wavelength of laser light can be determined. The two slits are separated by 0.16 mm. The screen is 1.4 m from the slits. It is observed that the second bright band is located 11 mm from the center of the pattern. Given this information, what is the wavelength of the laser light?

a. 1258 nm
b. 419 nm
c. 500 nm
d. 629 nm

Answers

Answer:

d. 629 nm

Explanation:

slit separation d = .16 x 10⁻³ m

distance of screen D = 1.4 m

distance of second bright band = 11 x 10⁻³

distance of second bright band = 2 x band width

= 2 x λ D /d

Putting the values given ,

11 x 10⁻³  = 2 x λ x 1.4 /  .16 x 10⁻³

λ = 1.76 x 10⁻⁶ / 2.8

= .6285 x 10⁻⁶

result of the collision is
A. 2mv to the right.
B. 2my to the left.
C. my to the right.
D. my to the left.​

Answers

Answer:

C. mv to the right

Explanation:

momentum of thr particle=m1v1

momentum of the wall=m2v2

m1v1+ m2v2 =m1u1+ m2u2 since the wall doesn't move it's momentum is zero.

m1v1 =m1u1

therefore change in that occurs as result of the collision is C. mv to the right

The total change in momentum of the particle of mass m that collides elastically with a vertical rigid wall perpendicularly from the left with velocity v is 2mv to the left (option B).  

The total change in momentum is given by:

[tex] \Delta p = p_{f} - p_{i} [/tex]  

In the initial state, the particle is moving to the right until it collides with the rigid wall, so:

[tex] p_{i} = mv [/tex]

In the final state, the particle moves backward after the collision with the wall, so:

[tex] p_{f} = -mv [/tex]  

The minus sign is because it is moving in the negative x-direction (to the left)

Hence, the total change in momentum is:

[tex] \Delta p = -mv - mv = -2mv [/tex]

Therefore, the total change in momentum of the particle is 2mv to the left (option B).

D) The force on the base due to the radiation is?

Answers

Answer:

power = 600000 W

intensity = 6666666.66 W/m²

Em = 70880.18 N/m

F = 2 × [tex]10^{-3}[/tex] N  

Explanation:

given data

frequency f = 2400 MHz

height oven cavity h = 25 cm = 0.25 m

base area measures A =  30 cm by 30 cm

total microwave energy content of cavity E = 0.50 mJ = 0.50 × [tex]10^{-3}[/tex]  

solution

first, we get here total time taken from top to bottom that is express as

Δt = [tex]\frac{h}{c}[/tex]  ...............1

Δt = [tex]\frac{0.25}{3\times 10^8}[/tex]  

Δt = 8.33 × [tex]10^{-10}[/tex] s

and

intensity of the microwave beam is  

intensity = power output ÷ base area    ..............2

intensity =  [tex]\frac{600000}{30 \times 30 \times 10^{-4}}[/tex]  

intensity = 6666666.66 W/m²

and

electric field amplitude is

as we know intensity  I = [tex]\frac{E^2}{c \mu o}[/tex]     ...............3

[tex]E(rms) = \sqrt{Ic\ \mu o} \\E(rms) = \sqrt{6666666.66 \times 3 \times 10^{8} \times 4 \pi \times 10^{-7} }[/tex]

E(rms) = 50119.87 N/m

and we know

[tex]E(rms) = \frac{Em}{\sqrt{2}}\\50119.87 = \frac{Em}{\sqrt{2}}[/tex]  

Em = 70880.18 N/m

and

What is fluid flow?

Fluid Flow, a branch of fluid dynamics, is concerned with fluids. It involves the movement of a fluid under the influence of uneven forces. As long as unbalanced pressures are applied, this motion will persist.

Given parameters:

Initial velocity of the water: u = 5.00 m/s

Initial diameter of the pipe: d = 1.50 cm.

Final diameter of the pipe: D = 3.00 cm.

Final velocity of the water: v = ?

In fluid motion:

velocity×(diameter)² = constant

Hence, initial velocity × ( initial diameter)² = final velocity × ( final diameter)²

ud² = vD²

v = u (d/D)²

v= 5 × (1.50/3.0)²

v= 5/2²

v= 5/4

v= 1.25 m/s.

From the above equation, the parent nucleus 185 79Au produces a daughter nuclei 181 77 Ir.

A careful observation of the atomic mass of the parent nucleus (185) and the atomic mass of the daughter nuclei (181) shows that the atomic mass of the daughter nuclei decreased by a factor of 4. Also, the atomic number of the daughter nuclei also decreased by a factor of 2 when compared with the parent nucleus as shown in the equation given above.

This simply means that the parent nucleus has undergone alpha decay which is represented with a helium atom as 4 2He.

Therefore, the equation is an example of alpha decay.

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,is radioactive with a half-life of 1.3 billion years and a natural abundance of 0.012%. Each 40K 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 in the body?

Answers

Answer:

0.03143 Gy

Explanation:

Mass of the human body = 70 kg

Mass of potassium in the human body = 140 g

chemical atomic mass of potassium = 39.1

From avogadros number, we know that 1 atomic mass of an element contains 6.023 × 10^(23) atoms

Thus,

140g of potassium will contain;

(140 × 6.023 × 10^(23))/(39.1) = 2.1566 × 10^(24) atoms

We are told that the natural abundance of one of the 40K isotopes is 0.012%.

Thus;

Number of atoms of this isotope = 0.012% × 6.023 × 10^(23) = 7.2276 × 10^(19) K-40 atoms

Formula for activity of K-40 is given as;

Activity = (0.693 × number of K-40 atoms)/half life

Activity = (0.693 × 7.2276 × 10^(19))/1300000000

Activity = 3.85 × 10^(10)

We are told that each decay deposits 1.0 MeV of energy into the body.

Thus;

Total energy absorbed by the body in a year = 3.85 × 10^(10) × 1 × 365 = 1405.25 × 10^(10) MeV

Now, 1 MeV = 1.602 × 10^(-13) joules

Thus;

Total energy absorbed by the body in a year = 1405.25 × 10^(10) × 1.602 × 10^(-13) = 2.25 J

1 Gy = 1 J/kg

Thus;

Yearly dose = 2.25/70 = 0.03143 Gy

Magnetic resonance imaging needs a magnetic field strength of 1.5 T. The solenoid is 1.8 m long and 75 cm in diameter. It is tightly wound with a single layer of 1.50-mm-diameter superconducting wire.
What current is needed?

Answers

Answer:

The current needed is 1790.26 A

Explanation:

Given;

magnitude of magnetic field, B = 1.5 T

length of the solenoid, L = 1.8 m

diameter of the solenoid, d = 75 cm = 0.75 m

The magnetic field is given by;

[tex]B = \frac{\mu_o NI }{L}[/tex]

Where;

μ₀ is permeability of free space = 4π x 10⁻⁷ m/A

I is current in the solenoid

N is the number of turns, calculated as;

[tex]N = \frac{Length \ of\ solenoid}{diameter \ of \ wire} \\\\N = \frac{1.8}{1.5*10^{-3}} =1200 \ turns[/tex]

The current needed is calculated as;

[tex]I = \frac{BL}{\mu_o N} \\\\I = \frac{1.5 *1.8}{4\pi *10^{-7} *1200} \\\\I = 1790.26 \ A[/tex]

Therefore, the current needed is 1790.26 A.

Answer:

I = 1790.5 A

Explanation:

The magnetic field due to a solenoid is given by the following formula:

B = μ₀NI/L

where,

B = Magnetic Field Required = 1.5 T

μ₀ = 4π x 10⁻⁷ T/A.m

L = length of Solenoid = 1.8 m

I = Current needed = ?

N = No. of turns = L/diameter of wire = 1.8 m/1.5 x 10⁻³ m = 1200

Therefore,

1.5 T = (4π x 10⁻⁷ T/A.m)(1200)(I)/1.8 m

I = (1.5 T)(1.8 m)/(1200)(4π x 10⁻⁷ T/A.m)

I = 1790.5 A

A viewing screen is separated from a double slit by 5.20 m. The distance between the two slits is 0.0300 mm. Monochromatic light is directed toward the double slit and forms an interference pattern on the screen. The first dark fringe is 3.70 cm from the center line on the screen.

Required:
a. Determine the wavelength of light.
b. Calculate the distance between the adjacent bright fringes.

Answers

Answer:

The wavelength of this light is approximately [tex]427\; \rm nm[/tex] ([tex]4.27\times 10^{-7}\; \rm m[/tex].)The distance between the first and central maxima is approximately [tex]7.40\; \rm cm[/tex] (about twice the distance between the first dark fringe and the central maximum.)  

Explanation:

Wavelength

Convert all lengths to meters:

Separation of the two slits: [tex]0.0300\; \rm mm = 3.00\times 10^{-5}\; \rm m[/tex].Distance between the first dark fringe and the center of the screen: [tex]3.70\; \rm cm = 3.70\times 10^{-2}\; \rm m[/tex].

Refer to the diagram attached (not to scale.) Assuming that the screen is parallel to the line joining the two slits. The following two angles are alternate interior angles and should be equal to each other:

The angle between the filter and the beam of light from the lower slit, andThe angle between the screen and that same beam of light.

These two angles are marked with two grey sectors on the attached diagram. Let the value of these two angles be [tex]\theta[/tex].

The path difference between the two beams is approximately equal to the length of the segment highlighted in green. In order to produce the first dark fringe from the center of the screen (the first minimum,) the length of that segment should be [tex]\lambda / 2[/tex] (one-half the wavelength of the light.)

Therefore:

[tex]\displaystyle \cos \theta \approx \frac{\text{Path difference}}{\text{Slit separation}} = \frac{\lambda / 2}{3.00\times 10^{-5}\; \rm m}[/tex].

On the other hand:

[tex]\begin{aligned} \cot \theta &\approx \frac{\text{Distance between central peak and first minimum}}{\text{Distance between the screen and the slits}} \\ &= \frac{3.70\times 10^{-2}\; \rm m}{5.20\; \rm m} \approx 0.00711538\end{aligned}[/tex].

Because the cotangent of [tex]\theta[/tex] is very close to zero,

[tex]\cos \theta \approx \cot \theta \approx 0.00711538[/tex].

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{\lambda /2}{3.00\times 10^{-5}\; \rm m} \approx \cos\theta\approx 0.00711538[/tex].

[tex]\begin{aligned}\lambda &\approx 2\times 0.00711538 \times \left(3.00\times 10^{-5}\; \rm m\right) \\ &\approx 4.26 \times 10^{-7}\; \rm m = 426\; \rm nm\end{aligned}[/tex].

Distance between two adjacent maxima

If the path difference is increased by one wavelength, then the intersection of the two beams would move from one bright fringe to the next one.

The path difference required for the central maximum is [tex]0[/tex].The path difference required for the first maximum is [tex]\lambda[/tex].The path difference required for the second maximum is [tex]2\,\lambda[/tex].

On the other hand, if the distance between the maximum and the center of the screen is much smaller than the distance between the screen and the filter, then:

[tex]\begin{aligned}&\frac{\text{Distance between image and center of screen}}{\text{Distance between the screen and the slits}} \\ &\approx \cot \theta \\ &\approx \cos \theta \\ &\approx \frac{\text{Path difference}}{\text{Slit separation}}\end{aligned}[/tex].

Under that assumption, the distance between the maximum and the center of the screen is approximately proportional to the path difference. The distance between the image (the first minimum) and the center of the screen is [tex]3.70\; \rm cm[/tex] when the path difference is [tex]\lambda / 2[/tex]. The path difference required for the first maximum is twice as much as that. Therefore, the distance between the first maximum and the center of the screen would be twice the difference between the first minimum and the center of the screen: [tex]2 \times 3.70\; \rm cm = 7.40\; \rm cm[/tex].

Rod cells in the retina of the eye detect light using a photopigment called rhodopsin. 1.8 eV is the lowest photon energy that can trigger a response in rhodopsin. Part A What is the maximum wavelength of electromagnetic radiation that can cause a transition

Answers

Answer:

The maximum wavelength of the e-m wave is 6.9 x 10^-7 m

Explanation:

Energy required to trigger a response = 1.8 eV

we convert to energy in Joules.

1 eV = 1.602 x 10^-19 J

1.8 eV = [tex]x[/tex] J

[tex]x[/tex] = 1.8 x 1.602 x 10^-19 = 2.88 x 10^-19 J

The energy of an electromagnetic wave is gotten as

E = hf

where

h is the Planck's constant = 6.63 x 10^-34 J-s

and f is the frequency of the wave.

substituting values, we have

2.88 x 10^-19 = 6.63 x 10^-34 x f

f = (2.88 x 10^-19)/(6.63 x 10^-34)

f = 4.34 x 10^14 Hz

We know that the frequency of an e-m wave is given as

f = c/λ

where

c is the speed of light = 3 x 10^8 m/s

λ is the wavelength of the e-m wave

From this we can say that

λ = c/f

CHECK COMPLETE QUESTION BELOW

you weigh 685 NN on the earth, what would be your weight on the surface of a neutron star that has the same mass as our sun and a diameter of 25.0 kmkm ? Take the mass of the sun to be msmsm_s = 1.99×1030 kgkg , the gravitational constant to be GGG = 6.67×10−11 N⋅m2/kg2N⋅m2/kg2 , and the free-fall acceleration at the earth's surface to be ggg = 9.8 m/s2m/s2 .

Answer:

5.94×10^15N

Explanation:

the weight on the surface of a neutron star can be calculated by below expresion

W= Mg

W= weight of the person

m= mass of the person

g=gravity of the neutron star

But we need the mass which can be calculated as

m= W/g

m= 685/9.81

m= 69.83kg

From the gravitational law equation we have

F= GMm/r^2

G= gravitational constant = 6.67x10⁻¹¹

M= mass of the neutron star = 1.99x10³⁰ kg

r = distance between the person and the surface

Then r can be calculated as = 25/2 = 12.5 km , we divide by two because it's the distance between the person and the surface

g=gravity of the neutron star can be calculated as

g=(6.67×10^-11 ×1.99×10^30)/(12.5×10^3)^2

= 8.50×10^13m/s^2

Then from W= mg we can find our weight

W= 8.50×10^13m/s^2 × 69.83

= 5.94×10^15N

Therefore, weight on the surface of a neutron star is 5.94×10^15N

If a sample emits 2000 counts per second when the detector is 1 meter from the sample, how many counts per second would be observed when the detector is 3 meters from the sample?

Answers

Answer:

6000 counts per second

Explanation:

If a sample emits 2000 counts per second when the detector is 1 meter from the sample, then;

2000 counts per second = 1 meter ... 1

In order to know the number of counts per second that would be observed when the detector is 3 meters from the sample, we will have;

x count per second = 3 meter ... 2

Solving the two expressions simultaneously for x we will have;

2000 counts per second = 1 meter

x counts per second = 3 meter

Cross multiply to get x

2000 * 3 = 1* x

6000 = x

This shows that 6000 counts per second would be observed when the detector is 3 meters from the sample

Suppose you are planning a trip in which a spacecraft is to travel at a constant velocity for exactly six months, as measured by a clock on board the spacecraft, and then return home at the same speed. Upon return, the people on earth will have advanced exactly 120 years into the future. According to special relativity, how fast must you travel

Answers

Answer:

I must travel with a speed of 2.97 x 10^8 m/s

Explanation:

Sine the spacecraft flies at the same speed in the to and fro distance of the journey, then the time taken will be 6 months plus 6 months

Time that elapses on the spacecraft = 1 year

On earth the people have advanced 120 yrs

According to relativity, the time contraction on the spacecraft is gotten from

[tex]t[/tex] = [tex]t_{0} /\sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2} }[/tex]

where

[tex]t[/tex] is the time that elapses on the spacecraft = 120 years

[tex]t_{0}[/tex] = time here on Earth = 1 year

[tex]\beta[/tex] is the ratio v/c

where

v is the speed of the spacecraft = ?

c is the speed of light = 3 x 10^8 m/s

substituting values, we have

120 = 1/[tex]\sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2} }[/tex]

squaring both sides of the equation, we have

14400 = 1/[tex](1 - \beta ^{2} )[/tex]

14400 - 14400[tex]\beta ^{2}[/tex] = 1

14400 - 1 = 14400[tex]\beta ^{2}[/tex]

14399 = 14400[tex]\beta ^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\beta ^{2}[/tex] =  14399/14400 = 0.99

[tex]\beta = \sqrt{0.99}[/tex] = 0.99

substitute β = v/c

v/c = 0.99

but c = 3 x 10^8 m/s

v = 0.99c = 0.99 x 3 x 10^8 = 2.97 x 10^8 m/s
