The work function for silver is 4.73 eV. (a) Convert the value of the work function from electron volts to joules.
Answer:
[tex]W=7.56\times 10^{-19}\ J[/tex]
Explanation:
Given that,
The work function for silver is 4.73 eV.
We need to find the value of the work function from electron volts to joules.
We know that,
[tex]1\ eV=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ J[/tex]
For 4.73 eV,
[tex]4.73\ eV=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 4.73\\\\=7.56\times 10^{-19}\ J[/tex]
So, the work function for silver is [tex]7.56\times 10^{-19}\ J[/tex].
Two drums of the same size and same height are taken.
i)what will be the difference in liquid pressure on their bases if A of them is completely filled and B is half filled and kept at the same place.
ii) what will be the difference in liquid pressure on their bases if both A and B are filled with water completely but one of them is kept at nepal and another in india?why?
iii) what will be the difference in liquid pressure on their bases if A is filled with water and B is filled with salty water and kept at delhi in the same position?why?
Answer:
i) The pressure acting on the base of B will be half the pressure acting on the base of A
ii) The pressure acting on the base of B will be the same as the pressure acting on the base of A
iii) The pressure on the base of drum A will be slightly less than the pressure on the base of drum B
Explanation:
The pressure acting on the base of the drum, P = h·ρ·g
Where;
h = The level of the liquid in the drum
[tex]h_{max}[/tex] = The height of the drums
ρ = The density of the liquid in the drum
g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²
i) If A is completely filled, we have [tex]h_A[/tex] = [tex]h_{max}[/tex]
Therefore, [tex]P_A[/tex] = [tex]h_{max}[/tex]×[tex]\rho_{liquid}[/tex]×g
If B is half filled, we have, [tex]h_B[/tex] = (1/2)·[tex]h_{max}[/tex]
[tex]P_B[/tex] = (1/2) × [tex]h_{max}[/tex]×[tex]\rho_{liquid}[/tex]×g
Therefore, [tex]P_B[/tex] = (1/2) × [tex]P_A[/tex]
The pressure acting on the base of B will be half the pressure acting on the base of A
ii) If both A and B are each filled with water (the same liquid), then the pressure on their bases will be [tex]P_A[/tex] = [tex]h_{max}[/tex]×[tex]\rho_{water}[/tex]×g = [tex]P_B[/tex], the same, given that the acceleration due to gravity, g, is constant and the same in Nepal and India
iii) If A is filled with water, and B is filled with salty water, we have that, the density of salty water is slightly higher than water, therefore, we get;
[tex]P_A[/tex] = [tex]h_{max}[/tex]×[tex]\rho_{water}[/tex]×g < [tex]P_B[/tex] =
The pressure on the base of drum A will be less than the pressure on the base of drum B.
How much energy does it take to boil water for pasta? For a one-pound box of pasta
you would need four quarts of water, which requires 15.8 kJ of energy for every degree Celsius (°C) of temperature increase. Your thermometer measures the starting
temperature as 48°F. Water boils at 212°F.
a. [1 pts] How many degrees Fahrenheit (°F) must you raise the temperature?
b. [2 pts] How many degrees Celsius (°C) must you raise the temperature?
c. [2 pts] How much energy is required to heat the four quarts of water from
48°F to 212°F (boiling)?
Answer:
a. 164°F
b. [tex]91.\overline 1 \ ^{\circ} C[/tex]
c. [tex]140.\overline 4[/tex] kJ
Explanation:
The starting temperature of the water, T₁ = 48F
The temperature at which the water boils, T₂ = 212°F
a. The difference between the initial and the boiling water temperature, ΔT = T₂ - T₁
Therefore;
ΔT = 212°F - 48°F = 164°F
The temperature by which he temperature must be raised, ΔT = 164°F
b. 48°F = ((48 - 32)×5/9)°C = (80/9)°C = [tex]8.\overline 8 \ ^{\circ} C[/tex]
212°F = ((212 - 32)×5/9)°C = 100°C
∴ ΔT = 100°C - [tex]8.\overline 8 \ ^{\circ} C[/tex] = [tex]9.\overline 1 \ ^{\circ} C[/tex]
c. The heat capacity of the water = The heat required to increase four quartz of water by 1 °C = 15.8 kJ
∴ The heat required to raise four quartz of water by [tex]9.\overline 1 \ ^{\circ} C[/tex], ΔQ = 15.8 kJ/°C × [tex]9.\overline 1 \ ^{\circ} C[/tex] = [tex]140.\overline 4[/tex] kJ.
A 5.0 kg box moving at 2.0 m/s on a horizontal, frictionless surface runs into a light horizontal spring of force constant 85 N/cm. Use the work-energy theorem to find the maximum compression of the spring.
Answer:
x = 4.85 cm
Explanation:
From work energy theorem when dealing with a spring in compression, we know that total work done is;
W_t = ½kx²
Where;
k is Force constant
x is max compression
Now, we know that this is also equal to the kinetic energy.
K.E = ½mv²
Thus;
½kx² = ½mv²
Making x the subject;
x = √(mv²/k)
We are given;
m = 5 kg
v = 2 m/s
k = 85 N/cm = 8500 N/m
Thus;
x = √(mv²/k)
x = √(5 × 2²/8500)
x = 0.0485 m
x = 4.85 cm
why does a desert cooler cool better than a hot dry day
On a hot dry day, the amount of water vapour present in atmosphere is less. Thus, water present inside the desert cooler evaporates more, thereby cooling the surroundings more. Hence, a desert cooler cools better on a hot dry day.

In an experiment the mass of a calorimeter is 36.35 g . Express in micrometer ,millimetre and kg.
Answer:
1. 36.35 g = 36.35E15 micrometer.
II. 36.35 g = 363.5 millimetre.
III. 36.35 g = 0.03635 kilogram.
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Mass of calorimeter = 36.35 gramsTo convert the mass in grams (g) to;
I. Micrometer
Conversion:
1 g = 1 exp 15 um
36.35 g = X um
Cross-multiplying, we have;
X = 36.35 * 1 exp 15 = 36.35 exp 15 um
36.35 g = 36.35E15 micrometer
II. Millimetre
Conversion:
1 g = 1 milliliter
36.35 g = X milliliter
Cross-multiplying, we have;
X = 36.35 * 1 = 36.35 milliliter
Next, we would convert milliliter to millimetre;
1 milliliter = 10 millimetre
36.35 milliliter = X millimetre
Cross-multiplying, we have;
X = 36.35 * 10 = 363.5 millimetre
36.35 g = 363.5 millimetre
III. Kilogram
Conversion:
1000 grams = 1 kilogram
36.35 g = X kilogram
Cross-multiplying, we have;
X * 1000 = 36.35 * 1
Dividing both sides by 1000, we have;
X = 36.35/1000 = 0.03635 kilogram
36.35 g = 0.03635 kilogram
Note:
g is the symbol for grams.Exp (E) means exponential = 10um is the symbol for micrometer.a ball is launched upward at an angle from the ground. which way does its acceleration point at the top?

Explanation:
Why are the largest craters we find on the Moon and Mercury so much larger than the largest craters we find on the Earth
Answer:
Because Moon and Mars has no atmosphere.
Explanation:
Moon and Mars has no atmosphere, so there is no friction on the falling object due to the atmosphere. The speed of the falling object is more at Moon and Mars.
When a small object impact on the surface of moon or Mars with high speed, the size of crater is large than the earth as out earth has atmosphere.

A cannon sitting on level ground is aimed at 45.0 degrees relative to the horizontal. It fires a test shot at a target located 100.0 meters away from the cannon on the same level ground. The test overshoots the target by 20.0 meters. Which of the following angles can the cannon be adjusted to to hit the target. You may neglect air resistance and assume the cannon always delivers the same initial velocity to the cannonball .
A. 35.9 deg
B. 49.1 deg
C. 28.2 deg
D. 52.8 deg
E. 22.7 deg
Answer:
C. 28.2 deg
Explanation:
The horizontal range of a projectile is given as:
[tex]R = \frac{v^2Sin2\theta}{g}[/tex]
where,
R = Range
v = speed
θ = angle of launch
g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²
First, we will find the launch speed (v) by using the initial conditions:
R = 120 m
θ = 45°
Therefore,
[tex]120\ m = \frac{v^2Sin 90^o}{9.81\ m/s^2}\\\\v = \sqrt{(120\ m)(9.81\ m/s^2)}\\\\v = 34.31\ m/s[/tex]
Now, consider the second scenario to hit the target:
R = 100 m
Therefore,
[tex]100\ m = \frac{(34.31\ m/s)^2Sin2\theta}{9.81\ m/s^2}\\\\Sin2\theta = \frac{(100\ m)(9.81\ m/s^2)}{(34.31\ m/s)^2}\\\\2\theta = Sin^{-1}(0.833)\\\\\theta = \frac{56.44^o}{2}\\\theta = 28.22^o[/tex]
Hence, the correct option is:
C. 28.2 deg

The power of the kettle was 1.5 kW. The 0.2kg heating element took 5 seconds to heat from 20 °C to 100 °C. Calculate the specific heat capacity of water using this information.
Answer:
Specific heat capacity, c = 468.75 J/Kg°C
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Power = 1.5 kW to Watts = 1.5 * 1000 = 1500 Watts
Time = 5 seconds
Mass = 0.2 kg
Initial temperature = 20°C
Final temperature = 100°C
To find specific heat capacity;
First of all, we would have to determine the energy consumption of the kettle;
Energy = power * time
Energy = 1500 * 5
Energy = 7500 Joules
Next, we would calculate the specific heat capacity of water.
Heat capacity is given by the formula;
[tex] Q = mcdt[/tex]
Where;
Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat. m represents the mass of an object. c represents the specific heat capacity of water. dt represents the change in temperature.dt = T2 - T1
dt = 100 - 20
dt = 80°C
Making c the subject of formula, we have;
[tex] c = \frac {Q}{mdt} [/tex]
Substituting into the equation, we have;
[tex] c = \frac {7500}{0.2*80} [/tex]
[tex] c = \frac {7500}{16} [/tex]
Specific heat capacity, c = 468.75 J/Kg°C

En la figura, la tensión desarrollada en cada
cuerda está dada por los dinamómetros:
T1=8 N y T2=6 N, y el ángulo de inclinación
de la primera cuerda es de 45°. Determine la
masa de la caja que debe sostener y el
ángulo con respecto a la horizontal.
Answer:
Parte A
El ángulo con respecto al horizonte, de la segunda cuerda es de aproximadamente 19,47°
Parte B
La masa de la caja que se va a sostener es de aproximadamente 0,7808 kg.
Explanation:
Parte A
Los parámetros dados son;
La tensión en la cuerda, T₁ = 8 N
La tensión en la cuerda, T₂ = 6 N
El ángulo de inclinación de la primera cuerda con la horizontal, θ₁ = 45°
Sea θ₂ el ángulo de inclinación de la segunda cuerda, obtenemos;
T₁·cos (θ₁) = T₂·cos (θ₂)
∴ 8 N × cos (45°) = 6 N × cos (θ₂)
cos (θ₂) = 8 N × cos (45°) / (6 N) = (√2)/2 × (4/3) = (2·√2)/3
θ₂ = arcos ((2·√2) / 3) ≈ 19,47°
El ángulo con respecto al horizonte, de la segunda cuerda, θ₂ ≈ 19,47°
Parte B
El peso de la caja, W = T₁·sin (θ₁) + T₂·sin (θ₂)
∴ W = 8 N × sen (45 °) + 6 N × sen (19,47 °) ≈ 7,66 N
El peso de la caja que se va a sostener, W ≈ 7,66 N
La masa de la caja que se va a sostener, m ≈ 7,66 N / (9,81 m/s²) ≈ 0,7808 kg

When the spacecraft is at the halfway point, how does the strength of the gravitional force on the spaceprobe by Earth compre with the strength
Solution :
When the spacecraft is at halfway point, the distance from the Earth as well as Mars are same. We have to account the masses of the planets. The gravitational force that is exerted by the Earth is greater because of its combined mass with the space probe.
The mass of Earth is greater than the mass of Mars. Therefore, the force of Earth is more than Mars.

Explanation:
When solving problems related to Electric Fields, care must be taken about symmetries. In our particular case when we take a look to at the drawings of the attached file, we realize:
1.-By symmetry each dx associated at a, has an opposite dx with point b as reference. The respective dE ( the charge is uniform ) is the same, as the charge of the wire is positive the force and the Field on a test charge (+) located at h will be upward, therefore the components dEx will cancel each other and the Electric Field becomes E = Ey = ∫ 2×dE× cosθ
The solutions:
A) Ey = 4623 N/C
B) Ey = 19.34 N/C
E = Ey = ∫ 2×dE× cosθ
Here cosθ = h/ d ⇒ cosθ = h/√h² + x² dE = K× dQ / d²
d² = h² + x²
k = 8.9 ×10⁹ Nm²C⁻² ; dQ = λ×dx λ = 150×10⁻⁹ C h = 0.08 m
Then by substitution
Ey = 2 ∫[K× λ×dx/ (h² + x²) ] × h / √h² + x²
reordering that equation:
Ey = 2×K×λ×h ∫ dx / [√ ( h² + x² ) ]³ (2)
To solve the integral we make use of a change of variables
x = h × tanα then x² = h² ×tan²α and dx = h× sec²α dα
plugging that values in equation (2)
Ey = 2×K×λ×h ∫ h× sec²α× dα / [√ ( h² + h²tan²α)]³
Ey = 2×K×λ×h² ∫ sec²α× dα / [ h × √ (1 + tan²α)]³ 1 + tan²α = sec²α
Ey = 2×K×λ×h²× ∫ (sec²α / h³× sec³α )×dα
Ey = 2×K×λ/h × ∫ ( 1 / secα dα
Ey = 2×K×λ/h × sinα now we αneed to come back to our original variables:
as x = h × tanα tanα = x/h then x is the opposite leg in a right triangle and h the adjacent one then the hypothenuse is √ (h² + x²) then sin α = x/ √ (h² + x²)
Ey = 2×K×λ/h × x/ √ (h² + x²) |₀⁰°⁰⁵
Ey = 2×8.9×10⁹× 150×10⁻⁹× 5×10⁻²/8× 10⁻²× √ 10⁻² ( 8 + 5 ) N/C
Ey = 4623 N/C
To answer the second question again we will make use of symmetries if you look at drawing ( Figure 2 ) you see that again the components in direction of x-axis cancel each other and the components in y-axis direction will add. Then
Ey = ∫ dE× cosθ
following the same procedure we will find:
Ey = ∫ [K×λ × dl/d²] × h/ d
The importan point here is that the radius of the circle is
2×π×r = 0.01 ( the length of the wire) ⇒ r = 0.16×10⁻² m
And we need to take into account that the integration is over the circle and the length of the circle is 0.01 m or ××2×π×r. All other factors are constant. Then by substitution
Ey = [K×λ ×h× / ( √ r² + h²)³ ] × 10⁻² N/C
Ey = 8.9 × 10⁹ × 150× 10⁻⁹ × 6× 10⁻² × 10⁻² / √ 10⁻² ( 0.16 + 6)
Ey = 0.8 × 10² / 6
Ey = 19.34 N/C
When cars travel around a banked (curved) road at the optimum angle,the normal reaction force (n) can provide the necessary centripetal force without the need for a friction force. (a)Describe whar would happen to Optimum banking angle when radius doubles? (b)Describe what would happen to optimum angle when speed doubles? (c)A car negotiate a turn of radius 80cm.What is the optimum banking angle for this curve if the speed is to be equal to 12m/s?
Answer:
(a) The optimum banking Decreases
(b) The optimum banking Increases
(c) The optimum banking is approximately 86.88°
Explanation:
(a) The equation of motion on a banked road is given as follows;
[tex]v = \sqrt{R \cdot g \times \left(\dfrac{tan (\theta) + \mu}{1 - \mu \cdot tan (\theta) }\right) }[/tex]
For no friction, we have;
v = √(R·g·tan(θ))
Where;
R₁ = The radius of the road
g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s² = Constant
θ₁ = The bank angle
μ = The coefficient pf friction = Constant
v = The vehicle's speed
If the radius doubles, for no friction, we have;
v² = R·g·(tan(θ))
tan(θ) = v²/(R·g)
Therefore, when the radius doubles, tan(θ) becomes smaller and therefore, the optimum banking angle θ decreases (becomes smaller)
(b) When the speed doubles, we have;
v₁ = 2·v
∴ tan(θ₁) = (v₁)²/(R·g) = 4·(v)²/(R·g) = 4·tan(θ)
When the speed doubles, tan(θ) increases and therefore, the optimum banking angle θ increases increases
(c) The radius negotiated by the car, R = 80 cm = 0.8 m
The speed of the car, v = 12 m/s
From tan(θ) = v²/(R·g), we have;
tan(θ) = 12²/(0.8 × 9.81) ≈ 18.349
θ ≈ arctan(18.349°) ≈ 86.88°
