Answer:
[tex]q = -461532.5 \ C[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The electric filed is [tex]E = 102 \ N/C[/tex]
Generally according to Gauss law
=> [tex]E A = \frac{q}{\epsilon_o }[/tex]
Given that the electric field is pointing downward , the equation become
[tex]- E A = \frac{q}{\epsilon_o }[/tex]
Here [tex]q[/tex] is the excess charge on the surface of the earth
[tex]A[/tex] is the surface area of the of the earth which is mathematically represented as
[tex]A = 4\pi r^2[/tex]
Where r is the radius of the earth which has a value [tex]r = 6.3781*10^6 m[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]A = 4 * 3.142 * (6.3781*10^6 \ m)^2[/tex]
[tex]A =5.1128 *10^{14} \ m^2[/tex]
So
[tex]q = -E * A * \epsilon _o[/tex]
Here [tex]\epsilon_o[/tex] s the permitivity of free space with value
[tex]\epsilon_o = 8.85*10^{-12} \ m^{-3} \cdot kg^{-1}\cdot s^4 \cdot A^2[/tex]
substituting values

Mars Rover When the Mars rover was deployed on the surface of Mars in July 1997, radio signals took about 12 minmin to travel from Earth to the rover.
How far was Mars from Earth at that time?
Answer:
s = 2.16 x 10¹¹ m
Explanation:
Since, the waves travelling from Earth to the Mars rover are electromagnetic. Therefore, there speed must be equal to the speed of light. So, from the equation given below:
s = vt
where,
s = the distance between Earth and Mars = ?
v = speed of the wave = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s
t = time taken by the radio signals to reach the rover from Earth
t = (12 min)(60 s/1 min) = 720 s
Therefore,
s = (3 x 10⁸ m/s)(720 s)
s = 2.16 x 10¹¹ m

E = 1/2 × 20×10^-3 × 25
E = 10×10^-3 × 25
E = 0.01 × 25
E = 0.25Joules.
Hence the energy stored in the magnetic field of this inductor is 0.25Joules

Answer:
The speed of light in air is 2.996x10⁸ m/s, and polystyrene is 1.873x10⁸ m/s.
Explanation:
To find the speed of light in air and in polystyrene we need to use the following equation:
[tex] c_{m} = \frac{c}{n} [/tex]
Where:
[tex]c_{m}[/tex]: is the speed of light in the medium
n: is the refractive index of the medium
In air:
[tex]c_{a} = \frac{c}{n_{a}} = \frac{2.997 \cdot 10^{8} m/s}{1.0003} = 2.996 \cdot 10^{8} m/s[/tex]
In polystyrene:
[tex]c_{p} = \frac{c}{n_{p}} = \frac{2.997 \cdot 10^{8} m/s}{1.6} = 1.873 \cdot 10^{8} m/s[/tex]
Therefore, the speed of light in air is 2.996x10⁸ m/s, and polystyrene is 1.873x10⁸ m/s.

What is the smallest value of n for which the wavelength of a Balmer series line is less than 400 nm
Answer:
The smallest value is n= 2
Explanation:
The balmer equation is given below
1/λ = R(1/4 - 1/n₂²).
R= 1.0973731568508 × 10^7 m^-1
λ= 400*10^-9 m
(400*10^-9)= 1.0973731568508 × 10^7 (1/4-1/n²)
(400*10^-9)/1.0973731568508 × 10^7
= 1/4 - 1/n²
364.51 *10^-16= 1/4 - 1/n²
1/n²= 1/4 -364.51 *10^-16
1/n² = 0.25-3.6451*10^-14
1/0.25= n²
4= n²
√4= n
2= n
The smallest value is N= 2
Copper Pot A copper pot with a mass of 2 kg is sitting at room temperature (20°C). If 200 g of boiling water (100°C) are put in the pot, after a few minutes the water and the pot come to the same temperature. What temperature is this in °C?
Answer:
The final temperature is 61.65 °C
Explanation:
mass of copper pot [tex]m_{c}[/tex] = 2 kg
temperature of copper pot [tex]T_{c}[/tex] = 20 °C (the pot will be in thermal equilibrium with the room)
specific heat capacity of copper [tex]C_{c}[/tex]= 385 J/kg-°C
The heat content of the copper pot = [tex]m_{c}[/tex][tex]C_{c}[/tex][tex]T_{c}[/tex] = 2 x 385 x 20 = 15400 J
mass of boiling water [tex]m_{w}[/tex] = 200 g = 0.2 kg
temperature of boiling water [tex]T_{w}[/tex] = 100 °C
specific heat capacity of water [tex]C_{w}[/tex] = 4182 J/kg-°C
The heat content of the water = [tex]m_{w}[/tex][tex]C_{w}[/tex][tex]T_{w}[/tex] = 0.2 x 4182 x 100 = 83640 J
The total heat content of the water and copper mix [tex]H_{T}[/tex] = 15400 + 83640 = 99040 J
This same heat is evenly distributed between the water and copper mass to achieve thermal equilibrium, therefore we use the equation
[tex]H_{T}[/tex] = [tex]m_{c}[/tex][tex]C_{c}[/tex][tex]T_{f}[/tex] + [tex]m_{w}[/tex][tex]C_{w}[/tex]
where [tex]T_{f}[/tex] is the final temperature of the water and the copper
substituting values, we have
99040 = (2 x 385 x [tex]T_{f}[/tex]) + (0.2 x 4182 x
99040 = 770[tex]T_{f}[/tex] + 836.4
99040 = 1606.4[tex]T_{f}[/tex]
[tex]T_{f}[/tex] = 99040/1606.4 = 61.65 °C
Inside the wall of a house, an L-shaped section of hot-water pipe consists of three parts: a straight, horizontal piece 28.0 cm long, an elbow, and a straight vertical piece ℓ = 159 cm long. A stud and a second-story floorboard hold the ends of this section of copper pipe stationary. Find the magnitude and direction of the displacement of the pipe elbow when the water flow is turned on, raising the temperature of the pipe from 18.0°C to 40.2°C. (The coefficient of linear expansion of copper is
Answer:
The magnitude and direction are
7.638×10-4m
80.01°
Explanation:
We know that the coefficient of linear expansion for copper = 16.6×10^-6 m/m-C
ΔT = 40.2 - 18.0 = 28.5 C°
The expansion of horizontal pipe length can be calculated as
= (0.28)(16.6×10^-6)(28.5) = 13247×10^-8
= 0.0001325 m
The expansion of vertical pipe length = (1.28)(16.6×10^-6)(28.5) = 60557×10^-8 = 0.000752229 m
horizontal displacement = 0.1325 mm
= 1.356×10^-4m
vertical displacement = 0.75223mm
=7.5223×10-4m
size of total displacement can be calculated as
√(x²+y²)
Where x and y are vertical and horizontal displacement respectively
= √(0.1325)²+(0.75223)² =
= 0.7638 mm
= 7.638×10-4m
Angle below horizontal = arctan Θ
= 0.75223/0.1325
=5.6772
= arctan (5.6772)
= 80.01°
Therefore, the the magnitude and direction of the displacement of the pipe elbow when the water flow is turned at (7.638×10-4m) 0.7638 mm and 80.01°

A string is stretched and fixed at both ends, 200 cm apart. If the density of the string is 0.015 g/cm, and its tension is 600 N, what is the fundamental frequency
Answer:
f₀ = 158.12 HertzExplanation:
The fundamental frequency of the string f₀ is expressed as f₀ = V/4L where V is the speed experienced by the string.
[tex]V = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} }[/tex] where T is the tension in the string and [tex]\mu[/tex] is the density of the string
Given T = 600N and [tex]\mu[/tex] = 0.015 g/cm = 0.0015kg/m
[tex]V = \sqrt{\frac{600}{0.0015} }\\ \\V = \sqrt{400,000}\\ \\V = 632.46m/s[/tex]
The next is to get the length L of the string. Since the string is stretched and fixed at both ends, 200 cm apart, then the length of the string in metres is 2m.
L = 2m
Substituting the derived values into the formula f₀ = V/2L
f₀ = 632.46/2(2)
f₀ = 632.46/4
f₀ = 158.12 Hertz
Hence the fundamental frequency of the string is 158.12 Hertz
Determine the value of the current in the solenoid so that the magnetic field at the center of the loop is zero tesla. Justify your answer.
Answer:
I will explain the concept of magnetic field and how it can be calculated.
Explanation:
The formula for magnetic field at the center of a loop is given as
B = μ[tex]_{o}[/tex]I / 2R
where B is the magnetic field
R is the radius of the loop
I is the current
and μ[tex]_{o}[/tex] is the magnetic permeability of free space which is a constant 4π × [tex]10^{-7}[/tex] newtons/ampere²
If the magnetic field at the center of the loop is 0, then μ[tex]_{o}[/tex]I = 0
I = 0 which means there will be no current flow in the loop.
The physics of wind instruments is based on the concept of standing waves. When the player blows into the mouthpiece, the column of air inside the instrument vibrates, and standing waves are produced. Although the acoustics of wind instruments is complicated, a simple description in terms of open and closed tubes can help in understanding the physical phenomena related to these instruments. For example, a flute can be described as an open-open pipe because a flutist covers the mouthpiece of the flute only partially. Meanwhile, a clarinet can be described as an open-closed pipe because the mouthpiece of the clarinet is almost completely closed by the reed.
1. Consider a pipe of length 80.0 cm open at both ends. What is the lowest frequency f of the sound wave produced when you blow into the pipe?
2. A hole is now drilled through the side of the pipe and air is blown again into the pipe through the same opening. The fundamental frequency of the sound wave generated in the pipe is now:______.
a. the same as before.
b. lower than before.
c. higher than before.
3. If you take the original pipe in Part A and drill a hole at a position half the length of the pipe, what is the fundamental frequency of the sound that can be produced in the pipe?
4. What frequencies, in terms of the fundamental frequency of the original pipe in Part A, can you create when blowing air into the pipe that has a hole halfway down its length?
4-1. Recall from the discussion in Part B that the standing wave produced in the pipe must have an antinode near the hole. Thus only the harmonics that have an antinode halfway down the pipe will still be present.
A. Only the odd multiples of the fundamental frequency.
B. Only the even multiples of the fundamental frequency.
C. All integer multiples of the fundamental frequency.
E. What length of open-closed pipe would you need to achieve the same fundamental frequency as the open pipe discussed in Part A?
A. Half the length of the open-open pipe.
B. Twice the length of the open-open pipe.
C. One-fourth the length of the open-open pipe.
D. Four times the length of the open-open pipe.
E. The same as the length of the open-open pipe.
F. What is the frequency of the first possible harmonic after the fundamental frequency in the open-closed pipe described in Part E?
F-1. Recall that possible frequencies of standing waves that can be generated in an open-closed pipe include only odd harmonics. Then the first possible harmonic after the fundamental frequency is the third
harmonic.
Answer:
1) f = 214 Hz , 2) answer is c , 3) f = 428 Hz , 4) f₂ = 428 Hz , f₃ = 643Hz
Explanation:
1) A tube with both ends open, the standing wave has a maximum amplitude and a node in its center, therefore
L = λ / 2
λ = 2L
λ = 2 0.8
λ = 1.6 m
wavelength and frequency are related to the speed of sound (v = 343 m / s)
v =λ f
f = v / λ
f = 343 / 1.6
f = 214 Hz
2) In this case the air comes out through the open hole, so we can assume that the length of the tube is reduced
λ' = 2 L ’
as L ’<L₀
λ' <λ₀
f = v / λ'
f' > fo
the correct answer is c
3) in this case the length is L = 0.40 m
λ = 2 0.4 = 0.8 m
f = 343 / 0.8
f = 428 Hz
4) the different harmonics are described by the expression
λ = 2L / n n = 1, 2, 3
λ₂ = L
f₂ = 343 / 0.8
f₂ = 428 Hz
λ₃ = 2 0.8 / 3
λ₃ = 0.533 m
f₃ = 343 / 0.533
f₃ = 643 Hz
4,1) as we have two maximums at the ends, all integer multiples are present
the answer is C
E) the length of an open pipe created that has a wavelength of lam = 1.6 m is requested
in this pipe there is a maximum in the open part and a node in the closed part, so the expression
L = λ / 4
L = 1.6 / 4
L = 0.4 m
the answer is C
F) in this type of pipe the general expression is
λ = 4L / n n = 1, 3, 5 (2n + 1)
therefore only odd values can produce standing waves
λ₃ = 4L / 3
λ₃ = 4 0.4 / 3
λ₃ = 0.533
f₃ = 343 / 0.533
f₃ = 643 Hz
An object on a level surface experiences a horizontal force of 12.7 N due to kinetic friction. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.42.
What is the mass of the object? (Express your answer to two significant figures)kg
Answer:
The mass of the object is 3.08 kg.
Explanation:
The horizontal force is12.7 N and the coefficient of the kinetic fraction are 0.42. Now we have to compute the mass of the object. Thus, use the below formula to find the mass of the object.
Let the mass of the object = m.
The coefficient of kinetic friction, n = 0.42
Therefore,
Force, F = n × mg
12.7 = 0.42 × 9.8 × m
m = 3.08 kg
The mass of the object is 3.08 kg.
An interference pattern is produced by light with a wavelength 590 nm from a distant source incident on two identical parallel slits separated by a distance (between centers) of 0.580 mm .
Required:
a. If the slits are very narrow, what would be the angular position of the first-order, two-slit, interference maxima?
b. What would be the angular position of the second-order, two-slit, interference maxima in this case?
Answer:
a. 0.058°
b. 0.117°
Explanation:
a. The angular position of the first-order is:
[tex] d*sin(\theta) = m\lambda [/tex]
[tex] \theta = arcsin(\frac{m \lambda}{d}) = arcsin(\frac{1* 590 \cdot 10^{-9} m}{0.580 \cdot 10^{-3} m}) = 0.058 ^{\circ} [/tex]
Hence, the angular position of the first-order, two-slit, interference maxima is 0.058°.
b. The angular position of the second-order is:
[tex] \theta = arcsin(\frac{m \lambda}{d}) = arcsin(\frac{2* 590 \cdot 10^{-9} m}{0.580 \cdot 10^{-3} m}) = 0.12 ^{\circ} [/tex]
Therefore, the angular position of the second-order, two-slit, interference maxima is 0.117°.

The left end of a long glass rod 8.00 cm in diameter and with an index of refraction of 1.60 is ground and polished to a convex hemispherical surface with a radius of 4.00 cm. An object in the form of an arrow 1.70 mm tall, at right angles to the axis of the rod, is located on the axis 24.0 cm to the left of the vertex of the convex surface.
A) Find the position of the image of the arrow formed by paraxial rays incident on the convex surface.
B) Find the height of the image formed by paraxial rays incident on the convex surface.
C) Is the image erect or inverted?
Answer:
A) 0.1477
B) 0.65388 mm
C) object is inverted
Explanation:
The formula for object - image relationships for spherical reflecting surface is given as;
n1/s + n2/s' = = (n2 - n1)/R
Where;
n1 & n2 are the Refractive index of both surfaces
s is the object distance from the vertex of the spherical surface
s' is the image distance from the vertex of the spherical surface
R is the radius of the spherical surface
We are given;
index of refraction of glass; n2 = 1.60
s = 24 cm = 0.24 m
R = 4 cm = 0.04 m
index of refraction of air has a standard value of 1. Thus; n1 = 1
a) So, making s' the subject from the initial equation, we have;
s' = n2/[((n2 - n1)/R) - n1/s]
Plugging in the relevant values, we have;
s' = 1.6/[((1.6 - 1)/0.04) - 1/0.24]
s' = 0.1477
b) The formula for lateral magnification of spherical reflecting surfaces is;
m = -(n1 × s')/(n2 × s) = y'/y
Where;
m is the magnification
n1, n2, s & s' remain as earlier explained
y is the height of the object
y' is the height of the image
Making y' the subject, we have;
y' = -(n1 × s' × y)/(n2 × s)
We are given y = 1.7 mm = 0.0017 m and all the other terms remain as before.
Thus;
y' = -(1 × 0.1477 × 0.0017)/(1.6 × 0.24)
y' = - 0.00065388021 m = -0.65388 mm
C) since y' is negative and y is positive therefore, m = y'/y would result in a negative value.
Now, in object - image relationships for spherical reflecting surface, when magnification is positive, it means the object is erect and when magnification is negative, it means the object is inverted.
Thus, the object is inverted since m is negative.
If the magnetic field of an electromagnetic wave is in the +x-direction and the electric field of the wave is in the +y-direction, the wave is traveling in the
Answer:
The wave is travelling in the ±z-axis direction.
Explanation:
An electromagnetic wave has an oscillating magnetic and electric field. The electric and magnetic field both oscillate perpendicularly one to the other, and the wave travels perpendicularly to the direction of oscillation of the electric and magnetic field.
In this case, if the magnetic field is in the +x-axis direction, and the electric field is in the +y-axis direction, we can say with all assurance that the wave will be travelling in the ±z-axis direction.
where c is the speed of light and G is the universal gravitational constant. RBH gives the radius of the event horizon of a black hole with mass ????. In other words, it gives the radius to which some amount of mass ???? would need to be compressed in order to form a black hole. The mass of the Sun is about 1.99×1030 kg. What would be the radius of a black hole with this mass?
Answer:
The radius of the black hole will be 2949.6 m.
Explanation:
The radius of this black hole will be the Schwarzschild radius of the mass of the sun
[tex]r_{s}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2GM}{c^{2} }[/tex]
where
G is the gravitational constant = 6.67 x 10^-11 m^3⋅kg^-1⋅s^-2
M is the mass of the sun = 1.99×10^30 kg
c is the speed of light = 3 x 10^8 m/s
substituting values into the equation, we have
[tex]r_{s}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2*6.67*10^{-11}*1.99*10^{30} }{(3*10^{8} )^{2} }[/tex] = 2949.6 m

In 8,450 seconds, the number of radioactive nuclei decreases to 1/16 of the number present initially. What is the half-life (in s) of the material
Answer:
2113 secondsExplanation:
The general decay equation is given as [tex]N = N_0e^{-\lambda t} \\\\[/tex], then;
[tex]\dfrac{N}{N_0} = e^{-\lambda t} \\[/tex] where;
[tex]N/N_0[/tex] is the fraction of the radioactive substance present = 1/16
[tex]\lambda[/tex] is the decay constant
t is the time taken for decay to occur = 8,450s
Before we can find the half life of the material, we need to get the decay constant first.
Substituting the given values into the formula above, we will have;
[tex]\frac{1}{16} = e^{-\lambda(8450)} \\\\Taking\ ln\ of \both \ sides\\\\ln(\frac{1}{16} ) = ln(e^{-\lambda(8450)}) \\\\\\ln (\frac{1}{16} ) = -8450 \lambda\\\\\lambda = \frac{-2.7726}{-8450}\\ \\\lambda = 0.000328[/tex]
Half life f the material is expressed as [tex]t_{1/2} = \frac{0.693}{\lambda}[/tex]
[tex]t_{1/2} = \frac{0.693}{0.000328}[/tex]
[tex]t_{1/2} = 2,112.8 secs[/tex]
Hence, the half life of the material is approximately 2113 seconds
