A horizontal, uniform board of weight 125 N and length 4 m is supported by vertical chains at each end. A person weighing 500 N is sitting on the board. The tension in the right chain is 250 N. How far from the left end of the board is the person sitting

Answers

Answer:

the person  is sitting 1.5 m from the left end of the board

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Wb = 125 N

Wm = 500 N

T₂ = 250 N

Now, we know that;

T₁ + T₂ = Wb + Wm

T₁ + 250 = 125 + 500

T₁ = 125 + 500 - 250

T₁ = 375 N

so tension of the left chain is 375 N.

Now, taking torque about the left end

500 × d + 125 × 2 = 250 × 4

500d + 250 = 1000

500d = 1000 - 250

500d = 750

d = 750 / 500

d = 1.5 m

Therefore, the person  is sitting 1.5 m from the left end of the board.

A long, straight metal rod has a radius of 5.75 cm and a charge per unit length of 33.3 nC/m. Find the electric field at the following distances from the axis of the rod, where distances are measured perpendicular to the rod's axis.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

From the question;

We will make assumptions of certain values since they are not given but the process to achieve the end result will be the same thing.

We are to calculate the following task, i.e. to determine the electric field at the distances:

a)  at 4.75 cm

b)  at 20.5 cm

c) at 125.0 cm

Given that:

the charge (q) = 33.3 nC/m

= 33.3 × 10⁻⁹ c/m

radius of rod = 5.75 cm

a) from the given information, we will realize that the distance lies inside the rod. Provided that there is no charge distribution inside the rod.

Then, the electric field will be zero.

b) The electric field formula [tex]E = \dfrac{kq }{d}[/tex]

[tex]E = \dfrac{9 \times 10^9 \times (33.3 \times 10^{-9}) }{0.205}[/tex]

E = 1461.95 N/C

c) The electric field E is calculated as:

[tex]E = \dfrac{9 \times 10^9 \times (33.3 \times 10^{-9}) }{1.25}[/tex]

E = 239.76 N/C

A certain microscope is provided with objectives that have focal lengths of 20 mm , 4 mm , and 1.4 mm and with eyepieces that have angular magnifications of 5.00 × and 15.0 × . Each objective forms an image 120 mm beyond its second focal point.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that:

Focal length for the objective lens = 20 mm, 4 mm, 1.4 mm

For objective lens of focal length f₁ = 20 mm

s₁' = 120 mm + 20 mm = 140 mm

Magnification [tex]m_1 = \dfrac{s'_1}{f_1}[/tex]

[tex]m_1 = \dfrac{140}{20}[/tex]

[tex]m_1 = 7 \ m[/tex]

For objective lens of focal length f₁ = 4 mm

s₁' = 120 mm + 4 mm = 124 mm

[tex]m_1 = \dfrac{s'_1}{f_1}[/tex]

[tex]m_1 = \dfrac{124}{4}[/tex]

[tex]m_1 = 31 \ m[/tex]

For objective lens of focal length f₁ = 1.4 mm

s₁' = 120 mm + 1.4 mm = 121.4 mm

[tex]m_1 = \dfrac{s'_1}{f_1}[/tex]

[tex]m_1 = \dfrac{121.4}{1.4}[/tex]

[tex]m_1 = 86.71 \ m[/tex]

The magnification of the eyepiece is given as:

[tex]m_e = 5X \ and \ m_e = 15X[/tex]

Thus, the largest angular magnification when  [tex]m_1 \ and \ m_e \ are \ large \ is:[/tex]

[tex]M_{large}= (m_1)_{large} \times (m_e)_{large}[/tex]

= 86.71 × 15

= 1300.65

The smallest angular magnification derived when [tex]m_1 \ and \ m_e \ are \ small \ is:[/tex]

[tex]M_{small}= (m_1)_{small} \times (m_e)_{small}[/tex]

= 7 × 5

= 35

The largest magnification will be 1300.65 and the smallest magnification will be 35.

What is magnification?

Magnification is defined as the ratio of the size of the image of an object to the actual size of the object.

Now for objective lens and eyepieces, it is defined as the ratio of the focal length of the objective lens to the focal length of the eyepiece.

It is given in the question:

Focal lengths for the objective lens is = 20 mm, 4 mm, 1.4 mm

now we will calculate the magnification for all three focal lengths of the objective lens.

Also, each objective forms an image 120 mm beyond its second focal point.

(1) For an objective lens of focal length   [tex]f_1=20 \ mm[/tex]

[tex]s_1'=120\ mm +20 \ mm =140\ mm[/tex]

Magnification will be calculated as

[tex]m_1=\dfrac{s_1'}{f_1} =\dfrac{140}{20} =7[/tex]

(2) For an objective lens of focal length [tex]f_1= \ 4 \ mm[/tex]

s₁' = 120 mm + 4 mm = 124 mm

[tex]m_1=\dfrac{s_1'}{f_1} =\dfrac{124}{4} =31[/tex]

(3) For an objective lens of focal length [tex]f_1=1.4\ mm[/tex]

s₁' = 120 mm + 1.4 mm = 121.4 mm

[tex]m_1=\dfrac{s_1'}{f_1} =\dfrac{121.4}{1.4} =86.71[/tex]

Now the magnification of the eyepiece is given as:

[tex]m_e=5x\ \ \ & \ \ m_e=15x[/tex]

Thus, the largest angular magnification when  

[tex]m_1 = 86.17\ \ \ \ m_e=15x[/tex]

[tex]m_{large}= (m_1)_{large}\times (m_e)_{large}[/tex]

[tex]m_{large}=86.71\times 15=1300.65[/tex]

The smallest angular magnification derived when

[tex]m_1=7\ \ \ \ m_e=5[/tex]

[tex]m_{small}=(m_1)_{small}\times (m_e)_{small}[/tex]

[tex]m_{small}=7\times 5=35[/tex]

Thus the largest magnification will be 1300.65 and the smallest magnification will be 35.

3. Four charges having charge q are placed at the corners of a square with sides of length L. What is the magnitude of the force acting on any of the charges

Answers

Answer:

Fr = 1.91 * 9*10⁹*q²/L²

Explanation:

Let´s say that the corners of the square are  A B C and D

We are going to find out the force on the charge placed on B  ( the charge placed in the upper right corner.

As all the charges are positive (the same sign), then all the three forces on the charge in B are of rejection.

Force due to charge placed in A

module   Fₓ =  K* q² / L²   in the direction of x

Force due to charge placed in C

module  Fy = K* q²/L²   in the direction of y

Force due to  the charge placed in D

That force will have the direction of the diagonal of the square, and the distance between charges placed in D and A is the length of the diagonal.

d²  =  L²  +  L²  =  2*L²

d  =  √2 * L

The module of the force due to charge place in D

F₄₅ = K*q²/ 2*L²

To get the force we need to add first  Fₓ  and  Fy  

Fx + Fy  =  F₁

module of  F₁ = √ Fx² + Fy²    the direction will be the same as the diagonal of the square then:

F₁   =   √  ( K* q²/L² )²  +   ( K* q²/L² )²

F₁  =  √ 2  *  K*q²/L²

And now we add forces F₁   and F₄₅   to get the net force Fr on charge in point B.

The direction of Fr is the direction of the diagonal and is of rejection

the module is

Fr  =  F₁  *  F₄₅

Fr  =  √ 2  *  K*q²/L²  +   K*q²/ 2*L²

Fr  = ( √ 2 + 0,5 ) * K*q² /L²

K  =  9*10⁹  Nm²C²

Fr = 1.91 * 9*10⁹*q²/L²

What is the equation for finding the length of time for a free fall?

The free fall formula should be used to obtain the length of time that it takes for a ball to fall from a given height. This formula also factors the height or distance from which the fall occurred and this is denoted by the letter d. The small letter 'a' is denotative of acceleration due to gravity and this is a constant pegged at -9.98 m/s².

A kangaroo kicks downward with a 1000N force. According to Newton's Law the kangaroo is propelled into the air by:

A) gravitational force
B) his muscles
C) The earth
D) wallabies

Answers

Answer: B) his muscles

Explanation:

Specifically his leg muscles. As the leg muscles expand, they push down on the ground. Newton's 3rd law says that for any action, there's an opposite and equal reaction. That means a downward push into the ground will have the ground push back, more or less, and that's why the kangaroo will jump. The ground (and the earth entirely) being much more massive compared to the animal means that the ground doesn't move while the kangaroo does move. Perhaps on a very microscopic tiny level the ground/earth does move but it's so small that we practically consider it 0.

This experiment can be done with a wall as well. Go up to a wall and lean against it with your hands. Then do a pushup to move further away from the wall, but you don't necessarily need to lose contact with the wall's surface. As you push against the wall, the wall pushes back, and that causes you to move backward. If the wall was something flimsy like cardboard, then you could easily push the wall over and you wouldn't move back very much. It all depends how much mass is in the object you're pushing on.

Answers

Answer:

a) the most probable speed of the molecules is 409.2 m/s

b) required temperature of xenon is 1322 K

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

a)

Maximum probable speed of hydrogen molecule (H₂)

[tex]V_{H_2[/tex] = √( 2RT / [tex]M_{H_2[/tex] )

where R = 8.314 m³.Pa.K⁻¹.mol⁻¹ and given that T = 20.3 K

molar mass of H₂; [tex]M_{H_2[/tex] = 2.01588 g/mol

we substitute

[tex]V_{H_2[/tex] = √( (2 × 8.314 × 20.3 ) / 2.01588 × 10⁻³  )

[tex]V_{H_2[/tex] = √( 337.5484 / 2.01588 × 10⁻³  )

[tex]V_{H_2[/tex] = 409.2 m/s

Therefore, the most probable speed of the molecules is 409.2 m/s

b)

Temperature of xenon  = ?

Temperature of hydrogen = 20.3 K

we know that;

T = (Vxe² × Mxe) / 2R

molar mass of xenon; Mxe = 131.292 g/mol

so we substitute

T = ( (409.2)² × 131.292 × 10⁻³) / 2( 8.314  )

T = 21984.14167 / 16.628

T = 1322 K

Therefore, required temperature of xenon is 1322 K

Why is it that, when we observe an extragalactic source whose diameter is about one lightday, we are unlikely to see fluctuations in light output in times shorter than about one day

Answers

yup i defiantly agree 100% with youuuu

The reason why we are unlikely to see fluctuations in light output in extragalactic sources with a diameter of about one light day over timescales shorter than about one day is due to the size and distance of the source, as well as the speed of light.

How to observe extragalactic sources whose diameter is about one light day?

When we observe an extragalactic source with a diameter of about one light day, we are essentially observing light that has traveled a very long distance through space to reach us. This light may have originated from a region of the source that is changing in brightness or emitting intense bursts of light, but by the time the light reaches us, these fluctuations are smeared out over a longer period of time due to the speed of light.

For example, if the source were emitting a burst of light that lasted for only a few hours, by the time that light travelled a distance of one light day (which is about 25 billion miles or 40 billion kilometres), the burst would be spread out over a longer period of time. This is because the light emitted at the beginning of the burst would have already traveled a significant distance away from the light emitted at the end of the burst by the time it reached us. As a result, we would observe the burst as a more gradual increase and decrease in light output over a period of several days, rather than a sharp increase and decrease over a few hours.

In addition, the turbulent interstellar and intergalactic media that the light passes through can also scatter and delay the light, further smearing out any short-term fluctuations in light output. This effect is known as interstellar scintillation and can make it even more difficult to observe short-term variations in the light output of extragalactic sources.

A) 2.81 eV

B) 3.89 eV

C) 2.10 eV

D) 2.78 eV

Answers

The color orange has a wavelength of 590 nm. The energy of an orange photon is approximately 0.337 eV.

The correct answer is option E.

To calculate the energy of a photon, we can use the equation:

E = (hc) / λ

where E is the energy of the photon, h is the Planck's constant (6.626 x [tex]10^-^3^4[/tex]J·s or 6.626 x[tex]10^-^1^9^[/tex] eV·s), c is the speed of light (3.00 x [tex]10^8[/tex] m/s), and λ is the wavelength of the light.

Given that the wavelength of orange light is 590 nm (or 590 x [tex]10^-^9[/tex]m), we can substitute the values into the equation:

E = [(6.626 x[tex]10^-^1^9^[/tex] eV·s) x (3.00 x [tex]10^8[/tex] m/s)] / (590 x[tex]10^-^9[/tex]m)

E = (1.9878 x [tex]10^-^1^0[/tex]eV·m) / (590 x [tex]10^-^9[/tex] m)

A motorist travels due North at 90 km/h for 2 hours. She changes direction and travels West at 60 km/for 1 hour.
a) Calculate the average speed of the motorist [4]
b) Calculate the average velocity of the motorist.

Answers

Answer:

a) S =  63.2 km/h

b) V =  63.2 km/h*(-0.316 , 0.949)

Explanation:

Let's define:

North as the positive y-axis

East as the positive x-axis.

Also, remember the relation:

Distance = Time*Speed

Let's assume that she starts at the position (0km, 0km)

Then she travels due North at 90km/h for two hours, then the displacement is

90km/h*2h = 180km to the north

Then the new position is:

(0km, 180km)

Then she travels West at 60km/h for one hour.

Then the distance traveled to the West (negative x-axis) is:

60km/h*1h = 60km to the west

Then the new position is:

(-60km, 180km).

a) The average speed is defined as the quotient between the displacement and the time.

We know that the total time traveled is 3 hours.

And the displacement is the difference between the final position and the initial position.

this is:

D = √( -60km - 0km)^2 + (180km - 0km)^2)=

D = √( (60km)^2 + (180km)^2) = 189.7 km

Then the average speed is:

S = (189.7 km)/(3 h) = 63.2 km/h

b) Now we want to find the average velocity, this will be equal to the average speed times a versor that points from the origin to the direction of the final position.

So, if the final position is (-60km, 180km)

We need to find a vector that represents the same angle, but that is on the unit circle.

Then, if the module of the final position is 189.7 km (as we found above), then the versor is just given by:

(-60km/ 189.7 km, 180km/ 189.7 km)

(-60/189.7 , 180/189.7)

We can just check that the module of the above versor is 1.

[tex]module = \sqrt{(\frac{-60}{189.7} )^2 + (\frac{180}{189.7} )^2} = \frac{1}{189.7}* \sqrt{(-60 )^2 + (180 )^2} = 1[/tex]

Then the average velocity is:

V = 63.2 km/h*(-60/189.7 , 180/189.7)

We can simplify our versor so the velocity equation is easier to read:

V = 63.2 km/h*(-0.316 , 0.949)

PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS ONE QUESTION
The half-life of Barium-139 is 4.96 x 10^3 seconds. A sample contains 3.21 x 10^17 nuclei. What is the decay constant for this decay?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\lambda=1.39\times 10^{-4}\ s^{-1}[/tex]

Explanation:

Given that,

The half-life of Barium-139 is [tex]4.96\times 10^3[/tex]

A sample contains [tex]3.21\times 10^{17}[/tex] nuclei.

We need to find the decay constant for this decay. The formula for half life is given by :

[tex]T_{1/2}=\dfrac{0.693}{\lambda}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{0.693}{T_{1/2}}[/tex]

Put all the values,

[tex]\lambda=\dfrac{0.693}{4.96\times 10^3}\\\\=1.39\times 10^{-4}\ s^{-1}[/tex]

So, the decay constant is [tex]1.39\times 10^{-4}\ s^{-1}[/tex].
