Answers

Answer 1

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

The isotope of Plutonium 238Pu is used to make thermoeletric power sources for spacecraft. Suppose that a space probe was launched in 2012 with 3.5 kg of 238Pu.

(a) If the half-life of 238Pu is 87.7 yr, write a function of the form [tex]Q(t)=Q_{0}e^{-kt}[/tex] to model the quantity Q(t) of 238Pu  left after t years. Round ythe value of k to 3 decimal places. Do not round intermediate calculations.

(b) If 1.7kg of 238Pu is required to power the spacecraft's data transmitter, for low long after launch would scientists be able to receive data? Round to the nearest year. Do not round intermediate calculations.

Answer: (a) [tex]Q(t)=3.5e^{-0.0079t}[/tex]

              (b) 91 years.

Explanation:

(a) Half-life is time it takes a substance to decrease to half of itself, i.e.:

Q(t) = [tex]0.5Q_{0}[/tex]

[tex]0.5Q_{0}=Q_{0}e^{-87.7k}[/tex]

[tex]0.5=e^{-87.7k}[/tex]

[tex]ln(0.5)=ln(e^{-87.7k})[/tex]

[tex]ln(0.5)=-87.7k[/tex]

[tex]k = \frac{ln(0.5)}{-87.7}[/tex]

k = 0.0079

Knowing k and [tex]Q_{0}[/tex]=3.5kg, function is [tex]Q(t)=3.5e^{-0.0079t}[/tex]

(b) Using function:

[tex]Q(t)=3.5e^{-0.0079t}[/tex]

[tex]1.7=3.5e^{-0.0079t}[/tex]

[tex]e^{-0.0079t}=\frac{1.7}{3.5}[/tex]

[tex]e^{-0.0079t}=0.4857[/tex]

[tex]ln(e^{-0.0079t})=ln(0.4857)[/tex]

[tex]-0.0079t=-0.7221[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{-0.7221}{-0.0079}[/tex]

t = 91.41

t ≈ 91 years

Scientists will be able to receive data for approximately 91 years.

How many turns of wire are needed in a circular coil 13 cmcm in diameter to produce an induced emf of 5.6 VV

Answers

Answer:

Number of turns of wire(N) = 3,036 turns (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Diameter = 13 Cm

emf = 5.6 v

Note:

The given question is incomplete, unknown information is as follow.

Magnetic field increases = 0.25 T in 1.8 (Second)

Find:

Number of turns of wire(N)

Computation:

radius (r) = 13 / 2 = 6.5 cm = 0.065 m

Area = πr²

Area = (22/7)(0.065)(0.065)

Area = 0.013278 m²

A velocity selector in a mass spectrometer uses a 0.100-T magnetic field. (a) What electric field strength is needed to select a speed of 4.00 . 106 m/s

Answers

Answer:

The electric field strength needed is 4 x 10⁵ N/C

Explanation:

Given;

magnitude of magnetic field, B = 0.1 T

velocity of the charge, v = 4 x 10⁶ m/s

The velocity of the charge when there is a balance in the magnetic and electric force is given by;

[tex]v = \frac{E}{B}[/tex]

A plastic balloon that has been rubbed with wool will stick to a wall.
a. Can you conclude that the wall is charged? If not, why not? If so, where does the charge come from?
b. Draw a series of charge diagrams showing how the balloon is held to the wall.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

When plastic balloon is rubbed with wool , charges are created on both balloon and silk in equal amount . Rubber balloon will acquire negative charge and silk will acquire positive charge .

Now when balloon is brought near a wall , there is induction of charge on the wall due to charge on the balloon . On the near surface of wall positive charge is produced and on the surface deep inside the wall negative charge is produced . The charge deep inside goes inside the earth but the positive charge near the surface of wall can not escape . It remains trapped by negative charge on the balloon .

hence there is mutual attraction between balloon and surface of wall is just like attraction between opposite charges . But once the ballon due to mutual attraction comes in contact with the wall , the charge on balloon and on wall neutralises each other and hence after some time the balloon falls off from the wall on the ground . It does not remain attracted to wall for ever . It happens due to neutralisation of charges on balloon and wall .

A transformer consists of a 500-turn primary coil and a 2000-turn secondary coil. If the current in the secondary is 3.0 A, what is the current in the primary

Answers

Answer:

12A

Explanation:

Formula for calculating the relationship between  the electromotive force (emf), current and number of turns of a coil in a transformer is expressed as shown:

[tex]\dfrac{V_s}{V_p} = \dfrac{N_s}{N_p} = \dfrac{I_p}{I_s}[/tex]  where;

Vs and Vp are the emf in the secondary and primary coil respectively

Ns and Np are the number if turns in the secondary and primary coil respectively

Ip and Is are the currents in the secondary and primary coil respectively

Since the are all equal to each other, then we can equate any teo of the expression as shown;

[tex]\dfrac{N_s}{N_p} = \dfrac{I_p}{I_s}[/tex]

Given parameters

Np = 500-turns

Ns = 2000-turns

Is = 3.0Amp

Required

Current in the primary coil (Ip)

Using the relationship [tex]\dfrac{N_s}{N_p} = \dfrac{I_p}{I_s}[/tex]

[tex]I_p = \dfrac{N_sI_s}{N_p}[/tex]

[tex]I_p = \dfrac{2000*3}{500} \\\\I_p = \frac{6000}{500}\\ \\I_p = 12A\\[/tex]

Hence the current in the primary coil is 12Amp

     The  net torque is  [tex]\tau = 0.11\ N \cdot m[/tex]

Generally the net torque is mathematically represented as

           [tex]\tau = I * \alpha[/tex]

Where [tex]\alpha[/tex] is the angular acceleration so  

        [tex]\alpha = \frac{\tau }{I}[/tex]

How wide is the central diffraction peak on a screen 2.20 mm behind a 0.0328-mmmm-wide slit illuminated by 588-nmnm light?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = 0.0394 \ m[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

        The  distance of the screen is  [tex]D = 2.20 \ m[/tex]

       The distance of separation of the slit is  [tex]d = 0.0328 \ mm = 0.0328*10^{-3} \ m[/tex]

        The  wavelength of light is  [tex]\lambda = 588 \ nm = 588 *10^{-9} \ m[/tex]

Generally the condition for constructive interference is

            [tex]dsin\theta = n * \lambda[/tex]

=>        [tex]\theta = sin^{-1} [ \frac{ n * \lambda }{d } ][/tex]

here n = 1 because we are considering the central diffraction peak

=>        [tex]\theta = sin^{-1} [ \frac{ 1 * 588*10^{-9} }{0.0328*10^{-3} } ][/tex]

=>       [tex]\theta = 1.0274 ^o[/tex]

Generally the width of central diffraction peak on a screen is mathematically evaluated as

           [tex]y = D tan (\theta )[/tex]

substituting values

        [tex]y = 2.20 * tan (1.0274)[/tex]

        [tex]y = 0.0394 \ m[/tex]

Where electric field is zero,

First distance = x

Second distance = (x-0.50)

So,

E1 = E2

[tex]k\frac{q1}{r^2}=k\frac{q2}{R^2} \\\\[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5}{x^2}=\frac{4}{(x-50)^2} \\\\[/tex]

x = 0.263 or x = 4.73

A rigid container holds 4.00 mol of a monatomic ideal gas that has temperature 300 K. The initial pressure of the gas is 6.00 * 104 Pa. What is the pressure after 6000 J of heat energy is added to the gas?

Answers

Answer:

The final pressure of the monoatomic ideal gas is 8.406 × 10⁶ pascals.

Explanation:

When a container is rigid, the process is supposed to be isochoric, that is, at constant volume. Then, the equation of state for ideal gases can be simplified into the following expression:

[tex]\frac{P_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{P_{2}}{T_{2}}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]P_{1}[/tex], [tex]P_{2}[/tex] - Initial and final pressures, measured in pascals.

[tex]T_{1}[/tex], [tex]T_{2}[/tex] - Initial and final temperatures, measured in Kelvins.

In addtion, the specific heat at constant volume for monoatomic ideal gases, measured in joules per mole-Kelvin is given by:

[tex]\bar c_{v} = \frac{3}{2}\cdot R_{u}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]R_{u}[/tex] - Ideal gas constant, measured by pascal-cubic meters per mole-Kelvin.

If [tex]R_{u} = 8.314\,\frac{Pa\cdot m^{3}}{mol\cdot K}[/tex], then:

[tex]\bar c_{v} = \frac{3}{2}\cdot \left(8.314\,\frac{Pa\cdot m^{2}}{mol\cdot K} \right)[/tex]

[tex]\bar c_{v} = 12.471\,\frac{J}{mol\cdot K}[/tex]

And change in heat energy ([tex]Q[/tex]), measured by joules, by:

[tex]Q = n\cdot \bar c_{v}\cdot (T_{2}-T_{1})[/tex]

Where:

[tex]n[/tex] - Molar quantity, measured in moles.

The final temperature of the monoatomic ideal gas is now cleared:

[tex]T_{2} = T_{1} + \frac{Q}{n\cdot \bar c_{v}}[/tex]

Given that [tex]T_{1} = 300\,K[/tex], [tex]Q = 6000\,J[/tex], [tex]n = 4\,mol[/tex] and [tex]\bar c_{v} = 12.471\,\frac{J}{mol\cdot K}[/tex], the final temperature is:

[tex]T_{2} = 300\,K + \frac{6000\,J}{(4\,mol)\cdot \left(12.471\,\frac{J}{mol\cdot K} \right)}[/tex]

[tex]T_{2} = 420.279\,K[/tex]

The final pressure of the system is calculated by the following relationship:

[tex]P_{2} = \left(\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}\right) \cdot P_{1}[/tex]

If [tex]T_{1} = 300\,K[/tex], [tex]T_{2} = 420.279\,K[/tex] and [tex]P_{1} = 6.00\times 10^{4}\,Pa[/tex], the final pressure is:

[tex]P_{2} = \left(\frac{420.279\,K}{300\,K} \right)\cdot (6.00\times 10^{4}\,Pa)[/tex]

[tex]P_{2} = 8.406\times 10^{4}\,Pa[/tex]

The final pressure of the monoatomic ideal gas is 8.406 × 10⁶ pascals.

Light of wavelength 519 nm passes through two slits. In the interference pattern on a screen 4.6 m away, adjacent bright fringes are separated by 5.2 mm in the general vicinity of the center of the pattern. What is the separation of the two slits?

Answers

Answer:

The separation of the two slits is 0.456 mm.

Explanation:

Given the wavelength of light = 519 nm

The indifference pattern = 4.6 m

Adjacent bright fringes = 5.2 mm

In the interference, the equation required is Y = mLR/d

Here, d sin theta = mL

L = wavelgnth

For bright bands, m is the  order = 1,2,3,4  

For dark bands,  m = 1.5, 2.5, 3.5, 4.5

R = Distance from slit to screen (The indifference pattern)

Y = Distance from central spot to the nth  order fringe or fringe width

Thus,  here d = mLR/Y

d = 1× 519nm × 4.6 / 5.2mm

d = 0.459 mm

Explanation:

When the magnet falls toward the copper block, the changing flux in the copper creates eddy currents that oppose the change in flux. The resulting braking force between the magnet and the copper block always opposes the motion of the magnet, slowing it as it falls. The braking force on the magnet is nearly equal to its weight, so it falls very slowly. The rate of the fall produces a rate of flux change sufficient to produce a current that provides the braking force. If the magnet is pushed, forcefully, toward the block, the rate of change of flux is much higher than this. When the magnet is moving much more quickly than it will fall unaided, what is the direction of the net force on the magnet?

Answers

Answer:

The net force is directed downwards.

Explanation:

Since the magnet is falling much more faster than it would unaided, then there is a net force that is accelerating the magnet downwards. We know that acceleration is due to a force acting on a mass, and in this case, the magnet is the mass. Also, the acceleration is always in the direction of the force producing it, which means that the net force on the magnet is vertically downwards.

Two coherent sources of radio waves, A and B, are 5.00 meters apart. Each source emits waves with wavelength 6.00 meters. Consider points along the line connecting the two sources.Required:a. At what distance from source A is there constructive interference between points A and B?b. At what distances from source A is there destructive interference between points A and B?

Answers

Answer:

a

    [tex]z= 2.5 \ m[/tex]

b

   [tex]z = (1 \ m , 4 \ m )[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     Their distance apart is  [tex]d = 5.00 \ m[/tex]

      The  wavelength of each source wave [tex]\lambda = 6.0 \ m[/tex]

Let the distance from source A  where the construct interference occurred be z

Generally the path difference for constructive interference is

              [tex]z - (d-z) = m \lambda[/tex]

Now given that we are considering just the straight line (i.e  points along the line connecting the two sources ) then the order of the maxima m =  0

  so

        [tex]z - (5-z) = 0[/tex]

=>     [tex]2 z - 5 = 0[/tex]

=>     [tex]z= 2.5 \ m[/tex]

Generally the path difference for destructive  interference is

           [tex]|z-(d-z)| = (2m + 1)\frac{\lambda}{2}[/tex]

=>         [tex]|2z - d |= (0 + 1)\frac{\lambda}{2}[/tex]

=>        [tex]|2z - d| =\frac{\lambda}{2}[/tex]

substituting values

          [tex]|2z - 5| =\frac{6}{2}[/tex]

=>      [tex]z = \frac{5 \pm 3}{2}[/tex]

So  

      [tex]z = \frac{5 + 3}{2}[/tex]

      [tex]z = 4\ m[/tex]

and

      [tex]z = \frac{ 5 -3 }{2}[/tex]

=>   [tex]z = 1 \ m[/tex]

=>    [tex]z = (1 \ m , 4 \ m )[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

 v_{1fy} = - 0.4549 m / s

Explanation:

This is an exercise of conservation of the momentum, for this we must define a system formed by the two balls, so that the forces during the collision have internal and the momentum is conserved

initial. Before the crash

      p₀ = m v₁₀

final. After the crash

      [tex]p_{f}[/tex] = m [tex]v_{1f}[/tex] + m v_{2f}

Recall that velocities are a vector so it has x and y components

       p₀ = p_{f}

we write this equation for each axis

X axis

       m v₁₀ = m v_{1fx} + m v_{2fx}

       

Y Axis  

       0 = -m v_{1fy} + m v_{2fy}

the exercise tells us the initial velocity v₁₀ = 1.83 m / s, the final velocity v_{2f} = 1.15, let's use trigonometry to find its components

      sin 23.3 = v_{2fy} / v_{2f}

      cos 23.3 = v_{2fx} / v_{2f}

      v_{2fy} = v_{2f} sin 23.3

      v_{2fx} = v_{2f} cos 23.3

we substitute in the momentum conservation equation

       m v₁₀ = m v_{1f} cos θ + m v_{2f} cos 23.3

       0 = - m v_{1f} sin θ + m v_{2f} sin 23.3

      1.83 = v_{1f} cos θ + 1.15 cos 23.3

       0 = - v_{1f} sin θ + 1.15 sin 23.3

      1.83 = v_{1f} cos θ + 1.0562

        0 = - v_{1f} sin θ + 0.4549

     v_{1f} sin θ = 0.4549

     v_{1f}  cos θ = -0.7738

we divide these two equations

      tan θ = - 0.5878

      θ = tan-1 (-0.5878)

       θ = -30.45º

we substitute in one of the two and find the final velocity of the incident ball

        v_{1f} cos (-30.45) = - 0.7738

        v_{1f} = -0.7738 / cos 30.45

        v_{1f} = -0.8976 m / s

the component and this speed is

       v_{1fy} = v1f sin θ

       v_{1fy} = 0.8976 sin (30.45)

       v_{1fy} = - 0.4549 m / s

An electromagnetic flowmeter is useful when it is desirable not to interrupt the system in which the fluid is flowing (e.g. for the blood in an artery during heart surgery). Such a device is illustrated. The conducting fluid moves with velocity v in a tube of diameter d perpendicular to which is a magnetic field B. A voltage V is induced between opposite sides of the tube. Given B = 0.120 T, d = 1.2 cm., and a measured voltage of 2.88 mV, determine the speed of the blood.

Explanation:

The electromagnetic flow-metre work on the principle of electromagnetic induction. The induced voltage is given as

[tex]E = Blv[/tex]

where [tex]E[/tex] is the induced voltage = 2.88 mV = 2.88 x 10^-3 V

[tex]l[/tex] is the distance between the electrodes in this field which is equivalent to the diameter of the tube = 1.2 cm = 1.2 x 10^-2 m

[tex]v[/tex] is the velocity of the fluid through the field = ?

[tex]B[/tex] is the magnetic field = 0.120 T

substituting, we have

2.88 x 10^-3 = 0.120 x 1.2 x 10^-2 x [tex]v[/tex]

2.88 x 10^-3 = 1.44 x 10^-3 x [tex]v[/tex]

[tex]v[/tex] = 2.88/1.44 = 2 m/s

B = 1.10T

A = 0.150m^²

Deta t= 0.1s

Explanation:

The magnetic flux is u solenoid is

      B = μ₀ N/L   I

where N is the number of loops, L the length and I the current

By applying this expression to our case we have that the current is the same in all cases and we can assume the constant length. Consequently we see that the magnitude of the magnetic field decreases with the number of loops

      B = (μ₀ I / L)  N

the amount between paracentesis constant, in the case of 4 loop the field is worth

      B = cte 4

N       B

1        1 cte

as we see it is a linear relationship.

In addition, this effect for such a small number of turns the direction of the field that is parallel to the normal of the lines will oscillate,

A city of Punjab has a 15 percent chance of wet weather on any given day. What is the probability that it will take a week for it three wet weather on 3 separate days?

Answers

Answer: 0.0617

Explanation:

Given: The probability of wet weather on any given day in a city of Punjab : p=15%=0.15

Let X be a binomial variable that represents the number of days having wet weather.

Binomial probability formula : [tex]P(X=x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^x[/tex], where n= total outcomes, p = probability of success in each outcomes.

Here, n= 7 ( 1 week = 7 days)

The probability that it will take a week for it three wet weather on 3 separate days:

[tex]P(X=3)^=\ ^7C_3(0.15)^3(1-0.15)^{7-3}\\\\=\dfrac{7!}{3!(7-3)!}(0.15)^3(0.85)^4\\\\=\dfrac{7\times6\times5}{3\times2}\times 0.003375\times0.52200625\approx0.0617[/tex]

Hence, the required probability =0.0617

Which unbalanced force accounts for the direction of the net force of the rocket?
a. Air resistance
b. Friction
c. Gravity
d. Thrust of rocket engine

Answers

It depends on what stage of the mission you're talking about.

==>  While it's sitting on the pad before launch, the forces on the rocket are balanced, so there's no net force on it.

==>  When the engines ignite, their thrust (d) is greater than the force of gravity.  So the net force on the rocket is upward, and the spacecraft accelerates upward.

==>  After the engines shut down, the net force acting on the rocket is due to Gravity (c).

. . . If the rocket has enough vertical speed, it escapes the Earth completely, and just keeps going.  

. . . If it has enough horizontal speed, it enters Earth orbit.  

. . . If it doesn't have enough vertical or horizontal speed, it falls back to Earth.    

A rocket will preserve to speed up so long as there's a resultant pressure upwards resulting from the thrust of the rocket engine.

What unbalanced force bills for the course of the internet pressure of the rocket?

A rocket launches whilst the pressure of thrust pushing it upwards is greater than the burden force because of gravity downwards. This unbalanced pressure reasons a rocket to accelerate upwards. A rocket will maintain to hurry up so long as there's a resultant force upwards resulting from the thrust of the rocket engine.

What's the net pressure of unbalanced?

If the forces on an item are balanced, the net pressure is zero. If the forces are unbalanced forces, the results do not cancel each difference. Any time the forces acting on an object are unbalanced, the net pressure is not 0, and the movement of the item modifications.

within which type of system is the total mass conserved but not the total energy

Answers

In a closed system the mass is conserved, but the energy is not conserved.

To find the answer, we have to study about different systems in thermodynamics.

What is thermodynamic system?A system, which can be expressed in terms of thermodynamic coordinates is called Thermodynamic system.Open system: System can exchange both energy and matter, thus, both energy and matter is not conserved here.Closed system can exchange energy with its surroundings (as heat or work), but not matter.Isolated system: A system that is open to the environment can interchange energy and matter, but a system that is insulated from it cannot.

Thus, we can conclude that, in closed system the mass is conserved, but the energy is not conserved.

g A projectile is fired from the ground at an angle of θ = π 4 toward a tower located 600 m away. If the projectile has an initial speed of 120 m/s, find the height at which it strikes the tower

Answers

Answer:

The projectile strikes the tower at a height of 354.824 meters.

Explanation:

The projectile experiments a parabolic motion, which consist of a horizontal motion at constant speed and a vertical uniformly accelerated motion due to gravity. The equations of motion are, respectively:

Horizontal motion

[tex]x = x_{o}+v_{o}\cdot t \cdot \cos \theta[/tex]

Vertical motion

[tex]y = y_{o} + v_{o}\cdot t \cdot \sin \theta +\frac{1}{2} \cdot g \cdot t^{2}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]x_{o}[/tex], [tex]x[/tex] - Initial and current horizontal position, measured in meters.

[tex]y_{o}[/tex], [tex]y[/tex] - Initial and current vertical position, measured in meters.

[tex]v_{o}[/tex] - Initial speed, measured in meters per second.

[tex]g[/tex] - Gravitational acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

[tex]t[/tex] - Time, measured in seconds.

The time spent for the projectile to strike the tower is obtained from first equation:

[tex]t = \frac{x-x_{o}}{v_{o}\cdot \cos \theta}[/tex]

If [tex]x = 600\,m[/tex], [tex]x_{o} = 0\,m[/tex], [tex]v_{o} = 120\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex] and [tex]\theta = \frac{\pi}{4}[/tex], then:

[tex]t = \frac{600\,m-0\,m}{\left(120\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot \cos \frac{\pi}{4} }[/tex]

[tex]t \approx 7.071\,s[/tex]

Now, the height at which the projectile strikes the tower is: ([tex]y_{o} = 0\,m[/tex], [tex]t \approx 7.071\,s[/tex], [tex]v_{o} = 120\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex] and [tex]g = -9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex])

[tex]y = 0\,m + \left(120\,\frac{m}{s} \right)\cdot (7.071\,s)\cdot \sin \frac{\pi}{4}+\frac{1}{2}\cdot \left(-9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right) \cdot (7.071\,s)^{2}[/tex]

[tex]y \approx 354.824\,m[/tex]

The projectile strikes the tower at a height of 354.824 meters.

m/s. Assuming a total mass of 75 kg (bicycle and
Kasek), what must be Kasek's power output to
climb the same hill at the same speed? ​

Answers

Answer:

 P = 2923.89 W  

Explanation:

Power is

     P = F v

for which we must calculate the force, let's use Newton's second law, let's set a coordinate system with a flat parallel axis and the other axis (y) perpendicular to the plane

X Axis  

         F - Wₓ = 0

         F = Wₓ

Y Axis

         N -  [tex]W_{y}[/tex] = 0

let's use trigonometry for the components of the weight

         sin 6 = Wₓ / W

         cos 6 = W_{y} / W

         Wₓ = W sin 6

         W_{y} = W cos 6

          F = mg cos 6

          F = 75 9.8 cos 6

          F = 730.97 N

let's calculate the power

        P = F v

        P = 730.97 4.0

        P = 2923.89 W
