Large capacitors can hold a potentially dangerous charge long after a circuit has been turned off, so it is important to make sure they are discharged before you touch them. Suppose a 120 μF capacitor from a camera flash unit retains a voltage of 140 V when an unwary student removes it from the camera. If the student accidentally touches the two terminals with his hands, and if the resistance of his body between his hands is 1.8 kΩ, for how long will the current across his chest exceed the danger level of 50 mA?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

93.3x10^-3s

Explanation:

If

Resistance = 1.8 kΩ

Current = 50 mA

Capacitor = 120 μF

Voltage = 140 V

to calculate the discharge current

Applying the formula of discharge current

io=vo/R

io= 140/ 1.8x 10³

= 0.078A

to calculate the time

Applying the formula of current

io= vo/R e-t/RC

50= 140/1800e-t/RC

0.649= e-t/RC

-t/RC= ln( 0.649)

t = 0.432x 120x10^-6x 1800

t=93.3 x 10^-3seconds

According to current SI unit conversions, 1 atmosphere is equal to 760 millimeters of mercury. The current pressure is determined by simple rule of three:

[tex]p = \frac{760\,mm\,Hg}{1\,atm} \times (1\times 10^{-6}\,atm)[/tex]

[tex]p = 7.6\times 10^{-4}\,mm\,Hg[/tex]

[tex]1.0\times 10^{-6}[/tex] atmospheres are equivalent to [tex]7.6\times 10^{-4}[/tex] millimeters of mercury.

A jumbo jet has a mass of 100,000 kg. The thrust of each of its four engines is 50,000 N. What is the jet's acceleration in meters per second squared right before taking off? Neglect air resistance and friction.

Answers

Answer:

The acceleration is   [tex]a =2\ m/s^2[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

       The  mass of the jumbo jet is  [tex]m_j = 100000\ kg[/tex]

        The thrust is  [tex]F_k = 50000 \ N[/tex]

Generally given that the jet has four engines the total thrust is  

        [tex]F_t = 4 * F_k[/tex]

substituting values

       [tex]F_t = 4 * 50000[/tex]

      [tex]F_t = 200000 \ N[/tex]

Generally the acceleration of the is mathematically represented as

         [tex]a = \frac{F_t}{m}[/tex]

substituting values

       [tex]a =2 \frac{N}{kg}[/tex]

Now  

        [tex]N = kg \cdot m/s^2[/tex]

Hence

         [tex]a =2 \frac{kg * \cdot m/s^2}{kg}[/tex]

        [tex]a =2\ m/s^2[/tex]

A speeding car has a velocity of 80 mph; suddenly it passes a cop car but does not stop. When the speeding car passes the cop car, the cop immediately accelerates his vehicle from 0 to 90 mph in 4.5 seconds. The cop car has a maximum velocity of 90 mph. At what time does the cop car meet the speeding car and at what distance?

Answers

Answer:

Distance= 4 miles

Time = 36.3 seconds

Explanation:

80 mph = 178.95 m/s

90 mph = 201.32 m/s

V = u +at

201.32= 0+a(4.5)

201.32/4.5= a

44.738 m/s² = a

Acceleration of the cop car

= 44.738 m/s²

Distance traveled at 4.5seconds

For the cop car

S= ut + ½at²

S= 0(4.5) + ½*44.738*4.5

S= 100.66 meters

Distance traveled at 4.5seconds

For the speeding car

4.5*178.95=805.275

The cop car will still cover 704.675 +x distance while the speeding car covers for their distance to be equal

X/178.95= (704.675+x)/201.32

X-0.89x= 626.37

0.11x= 626.37

X= 5694.3 meters

The time = 5694.3/178.95

Time =31.8 seconds

So the distance they meet

= 5694.3+805.275

= 6499.575 meters

= 4.0 miles

The Time = 4.5+31.8

Time = 36.3 seconds

What is the de Broglie wavelength of an object with a mass of 2.50 kg moving at a speed of 2.70 m/s? (Useful constant: h = 6.63×10-34 Js.)

Answers

Answer:

9.82 × [tex]10^{-35}[/tex] Hz

Explanation:

De Broglie equation is used to determine the wavelength of a particle (e.g electron) in motion. It is given as:

λ = [tex]\frac{h}{mv}[/tex]

where: λ is the required wavelength of the moving electron, h is the Planck's constant, m is the mass of the particle, v is its speed.

Given that: h = 6.63 ×[tex]10^{-34}[/tex] Js, m = 2.50 kg, v = 2.70 m/s, the wavelength, λ, can be determined as follows;

λ = [tex]\frac{h}{mv}[/tex]

  = [tex]\frac{6.63*10^{-34} }{2.5*2.7}[/tex]

 = [tex]\frac{6.63 * 10^{-34} }{6.75}[/tex]

 = 9.8222 × [tex]10^{-35}[/tex]

The wavelength of the object is 9.82 × [tex]10^{-35}[/tex] Hz.

A certain car traveling 33.0mph skids to a stop in 39m from the point where the brakes were applied. In approximately what distance would the car stop had it been going 66.0mph

Answers

Answer: 156.02 metre.

Explanation:

Give that a certain car traveling 33.0mph skids to a stop in 39m from the point where the brakes were applied.

Let us use third equation of motion,

V^2 = U^2 + 2as

Since the car is decelerating, V = 0

And acceleration a will be negative.

U = 33 mph

S = 39 m

Substitute both into the formula

0 = 33^2 - 2 × a × 39

0 = 1089 - 78a

78a = 1089

a = 1089 / 78

a = 13.96 m/h^2

If we assume that the car decelerate at the same rate.

the distance the car will stop had it been going 66.0mph will be achieved by using the same formula

V^2 = U^2 + 2as

0 = 66^2 - 2 × 13.96 × S

4356 = 27.92S

S = 4356 / 27.92

S = 156.02 m

Therefore, the car would stop at

156.02 m

A mass M is attached to an ideal massless spring. When this system is set in motion with amplitude A, it has a period T. What is the period if the amplitude of the motion is doubled

Answers

Answer:

The period of the motion will still be equal to T.

Explanation:

for a system with mass = M

attached to a massless spring.

If the system is set in motion with an amplitude (distance from equilibrium position) A

and has period T

The equation for the period T is given as

[tex]T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{M}{k} }[/tex]

where k is the spring constant

If the amplitude is doubled, the distance from equilibrium position to the displacement is doubled.

Increasing the amplitude also increases the restoring force. An increase in the restoring force means the mass is now accelerated to cover more distance in the same period, so the restoring force cancels the effect of the increase in amplitude. Hence, increasing the amplitude has no effect on the period of the mass and spring system.

The induced emf in the loop is measuredto be V. What is the magnitude B of the magnetic field that the loop was in?b. For the case of a square loop of sidelength L being pulled out of the magneticfield with constant speed v, What is the rate of change of area c= -dA/dt

Answers

Answer:

The question is not clear enough. So i have attached a copy of the correct question.

A) B = V/c

B) c = Lv

Explanation:

A) we know that formula for magnetic flux is;

Φ = BA

Where B is magnetic field and A is area

Now,

Let's differentiate with B being a constant;

dΦ/dt = B•dA/dt

From faradays law, the EMF induced is given as;

E = -dΦ/dt

However, we want to express it in terms of V and E.M.F is also known as potential difference or Voltage.

Thus, V = -dΦ/dt

Thus, we can now say that;

-V = B•dA/dt

Now from the question, we are told that dA/dt = - c

Thus;

-V = B•-c

So, V = Bc

Thus, B = V/c

B) according to Faraday's Law or Lorentz Force Law, an electromotive force, emf, will be induced between the two ends of the sidelength:

Thus;

E =LvB or can be written as; V = LvB

Where;

V is EMF

L is length of bar

v is velocity

From the first solution, we saw that;

V = Bc

Thus, equating both of the equations, we have;

Bc = LvB

B will cancel out to give;

c = Lv

In a physics lab, light with a wavelength of 490 nm travels in air from a laser to a photocell in a time of 17.5 ns . When a slab of glass with a thickness of 0.800 m is placed in the light beam, with the beam incident along the normal to the parallel faces of the slab, it takes the light a time of 21.5 ns to travel from the laser to the photocell.What is the wavelength of the light in the glass? Use 3.00×108 m/s for the speed of light in a vacuum. Express your answer using two significant figures.

Answers

Answer:

196 nm

Explanation:

Given that

Value of wavelength, = 490 nm

Time spent in air, t(a) = 17.5 ns

Thickness of glass, th = 0.8 m

Time spent in glass, t(g) = 21.5 ns

Speed of light in a vacuum, c = 3*10^8 m/s

To start with, we find the difference between the two time spent

Time spent on glass - Time spent in air

21.5 - 17.5 = 4 ns

0.8/(c/n) - 0.8/c = 4 ns

Note, light travels with c/n speed in media that has index of refraction

(n - 1) * 0.8/c = 4 ns

n - 1 = (4 ns * c) / 0.8

n - 1 = (4*10^-9 * 3*10^8) / 0.8

n - 1 = 1.2/0.8

n - 1 = 1.5

n = 1.5 + 1

n = 2.5

As a result, the wavelength of light in a medium with index of refraction would then be

490 / 2.5 = 196 nm

Therefore, our answer is 196 nm

A diffraction grating 19.2 mm wide has 6010 rulings. Light of wavelength 337 nm is incident perpendicularly on the grating. What are the (a) largest, (b) second largest, and (c) third largest values of θ at which maxima appear on a distant viewing screen?

Answers

Answer:

(a). The largest value of θ is 71.9°.

(b). The second largest value of θ is 57.7°.

(c). The third largest value of θ is 47.7° .

Explanation:

Given that,

Width of diffraction grating [tex]w= 19.2\ mm[/tex]

Number of rulings[tex]N=6010[/tex]

Wavelength = 337 nm

We need to calculate the distance between adjacent rulings

Using formula of distance

[tex]d=\dfrac{w}{N}[/tex]

Put the value into the formula

[tex]d=\dfrac{19.2\times10^{-3}}{6010}[/tex]

[tex]d=3.19\times10^{-6}\ m[/tex]

We need to calculate the value of m

Using formula of constructive interference

[tex]d \sin\theta=m\lambda[/tex]

[tex]\sin\theta=\dfrac{m\lambda}{d}[/tex]

Here, m = 0,1,2,3,4......

[tex]\lambda[/tex]=wavelength

For largest value of  θ

[tex]\dfrac{m\lambda}{d}>1[/tex]

[tex]m>\dfrac{d}{\lambda}[/tex]

Put the value into the formula

[tex]m>\dfrac{3.19\times10^{-6}}{337\times10^{-9}}[/tex]

[tex]m>9.46[/tex]

[tex]m = 9[/tex]

(a). We need to calculate the largest value of θ

Using formula of constructive interference

[tex]\theta=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{m\lambda}{d})[/tex]

Now, put the value of m in to the formula

[tex]\theta=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{9\times337\times10^{-9}}{3.19\times10^{-6}})[/tex]

[tex]\theta=71.9^{\circ}[/tex]

(b). We need to calculate the second largest value of θ

Using formula of constructive interference

[tex]\theta=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{m\lambda}{d})[/tex]

Now, put the value of m in to the formula

[tex]\theta=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{8\times337\times10^{-9}}{3.19\times10^{-6}})[/tex]

[tex]\theta=57.7^{\circ}[/tex]

(c). We need to calculate the third largest value of θ

Using formula of constructive interference

[tex]\theta=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{m\lambda}{d})[/tex]

Now, put the value of m in to the formula

[tex]\theta=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{7\times337\times10^{-9}}{3.19\times10^{-6}})[/tex]

[tex]\theta=47.7^{\circ}[/tex]

Hence, (a). The largest value of θ is 71.9°.

(b). The second largest value of θ is 57.7°.

(c). The third largest value of θ is 47.7° .

c) If the ice block (no penguins) is pressed down even with the surface and then released, it will bounce up and down, until friction causes it to settle back to the equilibrium position. Ignoring friction, what maximum height will it reach above the surface

Answers

Answer:

y = 20.99 V / A

there is no friction    y = 20.99 h

Explanation:

Let's solve this exercise in parts: first find the thrust on the block when it is submerged and then use the conservation of energy

when the block of ice is submerged it is subjected to two forces its weight  hydrostatic thrust

         

              F_net= ∑F = B-W

the expression stop pushing is

              B = ρ_water g V_ice

where rho_water is the density of pure water that we take as 1 10³ kg / m³ and V is the volume d of the submerged ice

We can write the weight of the body as a function of its density rho_hielo = 0.913 10³ kg / m³

             W = ρ-ice g V

              F_net = (ρ_water - ρ_ ice) g V

this is the net force directed upwards, we can find the potential energy with the expression

            F = -dU / dy

            ΔU = - ∫ F dy

            ΔU = - (ρ_water - ρ_ ice) g ∫ (A dy) dy

            ΔU = - (ρ_water - ρ_ ice) g A y² / 2

we evaluate between the limits y = 0,  U = 0, that is, the potential energy is zero at the surface

             U_ice = (ρ_water - ρ_ ice) g A y² / 2

now we can use the conservation of mechanical energy

starting point. Ice depth point

             Em₀ = U_ice = (ρ_water - ρ_ ice) g A y² / 2

final point. Highest point of the block

             [tex]Em_{f}[/tex] = U = m g y

as there is no friction, energy is conserved

            Em₀ = Em_{f}

            (ρ_water - ρ_ ice) g A y² / 2 = mg y

let's write the weight of the block as a function of its density

            ρ_ice = m / V

            m = ρ_ice V

we substitute

             (ρ_water - ρ_ ice) g A y² / 2 = ρ_ice V g y

              y = ρ_ice / (ρ_water - ρ_ ice) 2 V / A

let's substitute the values

             y = 0.913 / (1 - 0.913) 2 V / A

             y = 20.99 V / A

This is the height that the lower part of the block rises in the air, we see that it depends on the relationship between volume and area, which gives great influence if there is friction, as in this case it is indicated that there is no friction

                V / A = h

where h is the height of the block

                 y = 20.99 h

A spring attached to the ceiling is stretched 2.45 meters by a four kilogram mass. If the mass is set in motion in a medium that imparts a damping force numerically equal to 16 times the velocity, the correct differential equation for the position x (t ), of the mass at a function of time, t is

Answers

Answer:

d²x/dt² = - 4dx/dt - 4x is the required differential equation.

Explanation:

Since the spring force F = kx where k is the spring constant and x its extension = 2.45 equals the weight of the 4 kg mass,

F = mg

kx = mg

k = mg/x

= 4 kg × 9.8 m/s²/2.45 m

= 39.2 kgm/s²/2.45 m

= 16 N/m

Now the drag force f = 16v where v is the velocity of the mass.

We now write an equation of motion for the forces on the mass. So,

F + f = ma (since both the drag force and spring force are in the same direction)where a = the acceleration of the mass

-kx - 16v = 4a

-16x - 16v = 4a

16x + 16v = -4a

4x + 4v = -a where v = dx/dt and a = d²x/dt²

4x + 4dx/dt = -d²x/dt²

d²x/dt² = - 4dx/dt - 4x which is the required differential equation

How much time will elapse if a radioisotope with a half-life of 88 seconds decays to one-sixteenth of its original mass?

Answers

Answer:

352 seconds are needed for the radioisotope to decay to one-sixteenth of its original mass.

Explanation:

The decay of radioisotopes are represented by the following ordinary differential equation:

[tex]\frac{dm}{dt} = -\frac{t}{\tau}[/tex]

Where:

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

[tex]\tau[/tex] - Time constant, measured in seconds.

[tex]m[/tex] - Mass of the radioisotope, measured in grams.

The solution of this expression is:

[tex]m(t) = m_{o}\cdot e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }[/tex]

Where [tex]m_{o}[/tex] is the initial mass of the radioisotope, measured in kilograms.

The ratio of current mass to initial mass is:

[tex]\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} = e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }[/tex]

The time constant is now calculated in terms of half-life:

[tex]\tau = \frac{t_{1/2}}{\ln2}[/tex]

Where [tex]t_{1/2}[/tex] is the half-life of the radioisotope, measured in seconds.

Given that [tex]t_{1/2} = 88\,s[/tex], the time constant of the radioisotope is:

[tex]\tau = \frac{88\,s}{\ln 2}[/tex]

[tex]\tau \approx 126.957\,s[/tex]

Now, if [tex]\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}(t)} = \frac{1}{16}[/tex] and [tex]\tau \approx 126.957\,s[/tex], the time is:

[tex]t = -\tau \cdot \ln\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}}[/tex]

[tex]t = -(126.957\,s)\cdot \ln \frac{1}{16}[/tex]

[tex]t \approx 352\,s[/tex]

352 seconds are needed for the radioisotope to decay to one-sixteenth of its original mass.

Niobium metal becomes a superconductor when cooled below 9 K. Its superconductivity is destroyed when the surface magnetic field exceeds 0.100 T. In the absence of any external magnetic field, determine the maximum current a 5.68-mm-diameter niobium wire can carry and remain superconducting.

Answers

Answer:

The current is  [tex]I = 1420 \ A[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  diameter of the wire is  [tex]d = 5.68 \ mm = 0.00568 \ m[/tex]

    The  magnetic field is  [tex]B = 0.100 \ T[/tex]

   

Generally the radius of the wire is mathematically evaluated as

       [tex]r = \frac{d}{2}[/tex]

substituting values

     [tex]r = \frac{ 0.00568}{2}[/tex]

     [tex]r = 0.00284 \ m[/tex]

Generally the magnetic field is mathematically represented as

       [tex]B = \frac{\mu_o * I}{ 2 \pi r }[/tex]

=>    [tex]I =\frac{ B * 2 \pi r }{\mu_o}[/tex]

Here [tex]\mu_o[/tex] is the permeability of free space  with value [tex]\mu_o = 4 \pi *10^{-7} N/A^2[/tex]

substituting values

=>     [tex]I =\frac{ 0.100 * 2 * 3.142 * 0.00284 }{ 4 \pi * 10^{-7}}[/tex]

=>     [tex]I = 1420 \ A[/tex]

When the adjustable mirror on the Michelson interferometer is moved 20 wavelengths, how many fringe pattern shifts would be counted

Answers

Answer:

The number of  fringe pattern shift is   m  = 40

Explanation:

 From the question we are told that

      The  Michelson interferometer is moved 20 wavelengths i.e  [tex]20 \lambda[/tex]

Generally the distance which the  Michelson interferometer is moved is mathematically represented as

         [tex]d = \frac{m * \lambda}{2}[/tex]

Here [tex]m[/tex] is the number of  fringe pattern shift

     So

         [tex]20 \lambda = \frac{m * \lambda}{2}[/tex]

         [tex]40 \lambda = m * \lambda[/tex]

        m  = 40

The A block, with negligible dimensions and weight P, is supported by the coordinate point (1.1/2) of the parabolic fixed grounded surface, from equation y = x^2/2 If the block is about to slide, what is the coefficient of friction between it and the surface; determine the force F tangent to the surface, which must be applied to the block to start the upward movement.

Answers

Answer:

μ = 1

F = P√2

Explanation:

The parabola equation is: y = ½ x².

The slope of the tangent is dy/dx = x.

The angle between the tangent and the x-axis is θ = tan⁻¹(x).

At x = 1, θ = 45°.

Draw a free body diagram of the block.  There are three forces:

Weight force P pulling down,

Normal force N pushing perpendicular to the surface,

and friction force Nμ pushing up tangential to the surface.

Sum of forces in the perpendicular direction:

∑F = ma

N − P cos 45° = 0

N = P cos 45°

Sum of forces in the tangential direction:

∑F = ma

Nμ − P sin 45° = 0

Nμ = P sin 45°

μ = P sin 45° / N

μ = tan 45°

μ = 1

Draw a new free body diagram.  This time, friction force points down tangential to the surface, and applied force F pushes up tangential to the surface.

Sum of forces in the tangential direction:

∑F = ma

F − Nμ − P sin 45° = 0

F = Nμ + P sin 45°

F = (P cos 45°) μ + P sin 45°

F = P√2

A student holds a bike wheel and starts it spinning with an initial angular speed of 7.0 rotations per second. The wheel is subject to some friction, so it gradually slows down.

In the 10.0 s period following the inital spin, the bike wheel undergoes 60.0 complete rotations. Assuming the frictional torque remains constant, how much more time Δ????s will it take the bike wheel to come to a complete stop?

The bike wheel has a mass of 0.625 kg0.625 kg and a radius of 0.315 m0.315 m. If all the mass of the wheel is assumed to be located on the rim, find the magnitude of the frictional torque ????fτf that was acting on the spinning wheel.

Answers

Answer:

a)   Δt = 24.96 s , b)  τ = 0.078 N m

Explanation:

This is a rotational kinematics exercise

        θ = w₀ t - ½ α t²

Let's reduce the magnitudes the SI system

       θ = 60 rev (2π rad / 1 rev) = 376.99 rad

       w₀ = 7.0 rot / s (2π rad / 1 rpt) = 43.98 rad / s

       

      α = (w₀ t - θ) 2 / t²

let's calculate the annular acceleration

      α = (43.98 10 - 376.99) 2/10²

      α = 1,258 rad / s²

Let's find the time it takes to reach zero angular velocity (w = 0)

        w = w₀ - alf t

         t = (w₀ - 0) / α

         t = 43.98 / 1.258

         t = 34.96 s

this is the total time, the time remaining is

         Δt = t-10

         Δt = 24.96 s

To find the braking torque, we use Newton's law for angular motion

        τ = I α

the moment of inertia of a circular ring is

       I = M r²

we substitute

         τ = M r² α

we calculate

        τ = 0.625  0.315²  1.258

        τ = 0.078 N m

The total time taken by the wheel to come to rest is 25.18 s and the magnitude of the frictional torque is 25.18 N-m.

Given data:

The initial angular speed of wheel is, [tex]\omega = 7.0 \;\rm rps[/tex]   (rps means rotation per second).

The time interval is, t' = 10.0 s.

The number of rotations made by wheel is, n = 60.0.

The mass of bike wheel is, m = 0.625 kg.

The radius of wheel is, r = 0.315 m.

The problem is based on rotational kinematics. So, apply the second rotational equation of motion as,

[tex]\theta = \omega t-\dfrac{1}{2} \alpha t'^{2}[/tex]

Here, [tex]\theta[/tex] is the angular displacement, and its value is,

[tex]\theta =2\pi \times 60\\\\\theta = 376.99 \;\rm rad[/tex]

And, angular speed is,

[tex]\omega = 2\pi n\\\omega = 2\pi \times 7\\\omega = 43.98 \;\rm rad/s[/tex]

Solving as,

[tex]376.99 = 43.98 \times 10-\dfrac{1}{2} \alpha \times 10^{2}\\\\\alpha = 1.25 \;\rm rad/s^{2}[/tex]

Apply the first rotational equation of motion to obtain the value of time to reach zero final velocity.

[tex]\omega' = \omega - \alpha t\\\\0 = 43.98 - 1.25 \times t\\\\t = 35.18 \;\rm s[/tex]

Then total time is,

T = t - t'

T = 35.18 - 10

T = 25.18 s

Now, use the standard formula to obtain the value of braking torque as,

[tex]T = m r^{2} \alpha\\\\T = 0.625 \times (0.315)^{2} \times 1.25\\\\T = 0.0775 \;\rm Nm[/tex]

Thus, we can conclude that the total time taken by the wheel to come to rest is 25.18 s and the magnitude of the frictional torque is 25.18 N-m.
