A 58 g firecracker is at rest at the origin when it explodes into three pieces. The first, with mass 12 g , moves along the x axis at 37 m/s in the positive direction. The second, with mass 22 g , moves along the y axis at 34 m/s in the positive direction. Find the velocity of third piece.
Answer:
Explanation:
We shall apply conservation of momentum law in vector form to solve the problem .
Initial momentum = 0
momentum of 12 g piece
= .012 x 37 i since it moves along x axis .
= .444 i
momentum of 22 g
= .022 x 34 j
= .748 j
Let momentum of third piece = p
total momentum
= p + .444 i + .748 j
so
applying conservation law of momentum
p + .444 i + .748 j = 0
p = - .444 i - .748 j
magnitude of p
= √ ( .444² + .748² )
= .87 kg m /s
mass of third piece = 58 - ( 12 + 22 )
= 24 g = .024 kg
if v be its velocity
.024 v = .87
v = 36.25 m / s .
Consider a series RLC circuit where R=25.0 Ω, C=35.5 μF, and L=0.0940 H, that is driven at a frequency of 70.0 Hz. Determine the phase angle ϕ of the circuit in degrees.
Answer:
137.69°Explanation:
The phase angle of an RLC circuit ϕ is expressed as shoen below;
ϕ = [tex]tan^{-1} \dfrac{X_l-X_c}{R}[/tex]
Xc is the capacitive reactance = 1/2πfC
Xl is the inductive reactance = 2πfL
R is the resistance = 25.0Ω
Given C = 35.5 μF, L = 0.0940 H, and frequency f = 70.0Hz
Xl = 2π * 70*0.0940
Xl = 41.32Ω
For the capacitive reactance;
Xc = 1/2π * 70*35.5*10⁻⁶
Xc = 1/0.0156058
Xc = 64.08Ω
Phase angle ϕ = [tex]tan^{-1} \frac{41.32-64.08}{25} \\\\[/tex]
ϕ = [tex]tan^{-1} \frac{-22.76}{25} \\\\\\\\[/tex]
[tex]\phi = tan^{-1} -0.9104\\\\\phi = -42.31^0[/tex]
Since tan is negative in the 2nd quadrant;
[tex]\phi = 180-42.31^0\\\\\phi = 137.69^0[/tex]
Hence the phase angle ϕ of the circuit in degrees is 137.69°
The phase angle ϕ of the series RLC circuit that is driven at a frequency of 70.0 Hz is ϕ = 137.69°
Phase angle:Given that:
capacitance C = 35.5 μF,
Inductance L = 0.0940 H,
The resistance R = 25.0Ω
and frequency f = 70.0Hz
The capacitive reactance is given by:
Xc = 1/2πfC
Xc = 1/2π × 70 × 35.5× 10⁻⁶
Xc = 1/0.0156058
Xc = 64.08Ω
The inductive reactance is given by:
Xl = 2πfL
Xl = 2π × 70 × 0.0940
Xl = 41.32Ω
The phase angle of an RLC circuit ϕ is given by:
[tex]\phi=tan^{-1}\frac{X_l-X_c}{R}\\\\\phi=tan^{-1}\frac{41.32-64.08}{25}[/tex]
Ф = -42.31°
Since tan is negative in the 2nd quadrant, thus:
ϕ = 180° - 42.31°
ϕ = 137.69°

2. The nuclear model of the atom held that
a. electrons were randomly spread through "a sphere of uniform positive
electrification."
b. matter was made of tiny electrically charged particles that were smaller than the
atom
C. matter was made of tiny, indivisible particles.
d. the atom had a dense, positively charged nucleus.
Answer:
the atom had a dense, positively charged nucleus.
Explanation:
Ernest Rutherford, based on the experiment carried out by two of his graduate students, established the authenticity of the nuclear model of the atom.
According to the nuclear model, an atom is made up of a dense positive core called the nucleus. Electrons are found to move round this nucleus in orbits. This is akin to the movement of the planets round the sun in the solar system.
A 137 kg horizontal platform is a uniform disk of radius 1.53 m and can rotate about the vertical axis through its center. A 68.7 kg person stands on the platform at a distance of 1.19 m from the center, and a 25.9 kg dog sits on the platform near the person 1.45 m from the center. Find the moment of inertia of this system, consisting of the platform and its population, with respect to the axis.
Answer:
The moment of inertia is [tex]I= 312.09 \ kg \cdot m^2[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The mass of the platform is m = 137 kg
The radius is r = 1.53 m
The mass of the person is [tex]m_p = 68.7 \ kg[/tex]
The distance of the person from the center is [tex]d_c =1.19 \ m[/tex]
The mass of the dog is [tex]m_d = 25.9 \ kg[/tex]
The distance of the dog from the person [tex]d_d = 1.45 \ m[/tex]
Generally the moment of inertia of the system is mathematically represented as
[tex]I = I_1 + I_2 + I_3[/tex]
Where [tex]I_1[/tex] is the moment of inertia of the platform which mathematically represented as
[tex]I_1 = \frac{m * r^2}{2}[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]I_1 = \frac{ 137 * (1.53)^2}{2}[/tex]
[tex]I_1 = 160.35 \ kg\cdot m^2[/tex]
Also [tex]I_2[/tex] is the moment of inertia of the person about the axis which is mathematically represented as
[tex]I_2 = m_p * d_c^2[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]I_2 = 68.7 * 1.19^2[/tex]
[tex]I_2 = 97.29 \ kg \cdot m^2[/tex]
Also [tex]I_3[/tex] is the moment of inertia of the dog about the axis which is mathematically represented as
[tex]I_3 = m_d * d_d^2[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]I_3 = 25.9 * 1.45^2[/tex]
[tex]I_3 = 54.45 \ kg \cdot m^2[/tex]
Thus
[tex]I= 160.35 + 97.29 + 54.45[/tex]
[tex]I= 312.09 \ kg \cdot m^2[/tex]
Rod cells in the retina of the eye detect light using a photopigment called rhodopsin. 1.8 eV is the lowest photon energy that can trigger a response in rhodopsin. Part A What is the maximum wavelength of electromagnetic radiation that can cause a transition
Answer:
The maximum wavelength of the e-m wave is 6.9 x 10^-7 m
Explanation:
Energy required to trigger a response = 1.8 eV
we convert to energy in Joules.
1 eV = 1.602 x 10^-19 J
1.8 eV = [tex]x[/tex] J
[tex]x[/tex] = 1.8 x 1.602 x 10^-19 = 2.88 x 10^-19 J
The energy of an electromagnetic wave is gotten as
E = hf
where
h is the Planck's constant = 6.63 x 10^-34 J-s
and f is the frequency of the wave.
substituting values, we have
2.88 x 10^-19 = 6.63 x 10^-34 x f
f = (2.88 x 10^-19)/(6.63 x 10^-34)
f = 4.34 x 10^14 Hz
We know that the frequency of an e-m wave is given as
f = c/λ
where
c is the speed of light = 3 x 10^8 m/s
λ is the wavelength of the e-m wave
From this we can say that
λ = c/f
λ = (3 x 10^8)/(4.34 x 10^14)
λ = 6.9 x 10^-7 m
A person with a near point of 85 cm, but excellent distance vision normally wears corrective glasses. But he loses them while travelling. Fortunately he has his old pair as a spare. (a) If the lenses of the old pair have a power of 2.25 diopters, what is his near point (measured from the eye) when wearing the old glasses, if they rest 2.0 cm in front of the eye
Answer:
30.93 cm
Explanation:
Given that:
A person with a near point of 85 cm, but excellent distance vision normally wears corrective glasses
The power of the old pair of lens p = 2.25 diopters
The focal point length = 1/p
The focal point length = 1/2.25
The focal point length = 0.444 m
The focal point length = 44.4 cm
The near point of the person from the glass = (85 -2)cm , This is because the glasses are usually 2 cm from the lens
The near point of the person from the glass = 83 cm
Let consider s' to be the image on the same sides of the lens,
∴ s' = -83 cm
We known that:
the focal length of a mirror image 1/f =1/u +1/v
Assume the near point is at an excellent distance s from the glass where the person wears the corrective glasses.
Then:
1/f = 1/s + 1/s'
1/s = 1/f - 1/s'
1/s = (s' -f)/fs'
s = fs'/(s'-f)
s =( 44.4× -83)/(-83 - 44.4)
s = - 3685.2 / - 127.4
s = 28.93 cm
Thus , the near distance point measured from the eye wearing the old glasses, if they rest 2.0 cm in front of the eye = (28.93 +2.0)cm
= 30.93 cm

Determine the next possible thickness of the film (in nm) that will provide the proper destructive interference. The index of refraction of the glass is 1.58 and the index of refraction of the film material is 1.48.
Answer:
I know the answer
Explanation:
We want to choose the film thickness such that destructive interference occurs between the light reflected from the air-film interface (call it wave 1) and from the film-lens interface (call it wave 2). For destructive interference to occur, the phase difference between the two waves must be an odd multiple of half-wavelengths.
You can think of the phases of the two waves as second hands on a clock; as the light travels, the hands tick-tock around the clock. Consider the clocks on the two waves in question. As both waves travel to the air-film interface, their clocks both tick-tock the same time-no phase difference. When wave 1 is reflected from the air-film boundary, its clock is set forward 30 seconds; i.e., if the hand was pointing toward 12, it's now pointing toward 6. It's set forward because the index of refraction of air is smaller than that of the film.
Now wave 1 pauses while wave two goes into and out of the film. The clock on wave 2 continues to tick as it travels in the film-tick, tock, tick, tock.... Clock 2 is set forward 30 seconds when it hits the film-lens interface because the index of refraction of the film is smaller than that of the lens. Then as it travels back through the film, its clock still continues ticking. When wave 2 gets back to the air-film interface, the two waves continue side by side, both their clocks ticking; there is no change in phase as they continue on their merry way.
So, to recap, since both clocks were shifted forward at the two different interfaces, there was no net phase shift due to reflection. There was also no phase shift as the waves travelled into and out from the air-film interface. The only phase shift occured as clock 2 ticked inside the film.
Call the thickness of the film t. Then the total distance travelled by wave 2 inside the film is 2t, if we assume the light entered pretty much normal to the interface. This total distance should equal to half the wavelength of the light in the film (for the minimum condition; it could also be 3/2, 5/2, etc., but that wouldn't be the minimum thickness) since the hand of the clock makes one revolution for each distance of one wavelength the wave travels (right?).

A radiation worker is subject to a dose of 200 mrad/h of maximum QF neutrons for one 40 h work week. How many times the yearly allowable effective dose did she receive?
Answer:
16 times.
Explanation:
The rate of the radiation dose is , R = 200 ×10^{-3} rad/hr
Time consumed, t = 40 hr
The magnitude of Q.F for the neutrons, Q.F = 2
Thus the effective radiation dose is:
[tex]R_{Eff} = Rt(Q.F) \\= 200 \times 10^{-3} \frac{rad}{hr} (40hr)(2) \\= 16 \ rad[/tex]
Thus, the effective dose allowable yearly = 16 times

Two protons moving with same speed in same direction repel each other but what about two protons moving with different speed in the same direction?
Answer:In the case of two proton beams the protons repel one another because they have the same sign of electrical charge. There is also an attractive magnetic force between the protons, but in the proton frame of reference this force must be zero! Clearly then the attractive magnetic force that reduces the net force between protons in the two beams as seen in our frame of reference is relativistic. In particular the apparent magnetic forces or fields are relativistic modifications of the electrical forces or fields. As such modifications, they cannot be stronger than the electrical forces and fields that produce them. This follows from the fact that switching frames of reference can reduce forces, but it can’t turn what is attractive in one frame into a repulsive force in another frame.
In the case of wires the net charges in two wires are zero everywhere along the wires. That makes the net electrical forces between the wires very nearly zero. Yet the relativistic magnetic forces and fields will be of the same sort as in the case of two beams of charges of a single sign. This is true even in the frame of reference of what we think as the moving charges, that is, the electrons. In the frame of reference moving at the drift velocity of these current-carrying electrons, it is the protons or positively charged ions that are moving in the other direction. Consequently in any frame of reference for current-carrying wires in parallel, the net electrical force will be essentially zero, and there will be a net attractive magnetic force
Explanation:
Explanation:
Particles with similar charges (both positive or both negative) will always repel each other, regardless of their speed or direction.
A red card is illuminated by red light. Part A What color will the card appear? What color will the card appear? a. Red b. Black c. White d. Green
The color that is reflected when a red card is illuminated by red light is white.
The color an object is perceived to have, depends on the frequency of light it reflects.
If white light incidents on a red filter, red is transmitted while blue and green are absorbed.
Consequently, when a red card is illuminated by red light, the red card will reflect back almost all the incident light on it, causing it to appear brighter which creates an illusion of white color to the eyes.
Thus, we can conclude the color that is reflected when a red card is illuminated by red light is white.

A circular conducting loop of radius 31.0 cm is located in a region of homogeneous magnetic field of magnitude 0.700 T pointing perpendicular to the plane of the loop. the loop is connected in series with a resistor of 265 ohms. The magnetic field is now increased at a constant rate by a factor of 2.30 in 29.0 s.
Calculate the magnitude of induced emf in the loop while the magnetic field is increasing.
With the magnetic field held constant a ts its new value of 1.61 T, calculate the magnitude of its induced voltage in the loop while it is pulled horizontally out of the magnetic field region during a time interval of 3.90s.
Answer:
(a) The magnitude of induced emf in the loop while the magnetic field is increasing is 9.5 mV
(b) The magnitude of the induced voltage at a constant magnetic field is 124.7 mV
Explanation:
Given;
radius of the circular loop, r = 31.0 cm = 0.31 m
initial magnetic field, B₁ = 0.7 T
final magnetic field, B₂ = 2.3B₁ = 2.3 X 0.7 T = 1.61 T
duration of change in the field, t = 29
(a) The magnitude of induced emf in the loop while the magnetic field is increasing.
[tex]E = A*\frac{\delta B}{\delta t} \\\\[/tex]
[tex]E = A*\frac{B_2 -B_1}{\delta t}[/tex]
Where;
A is the area of the circular loop
A = πr²
A = π(0.31)² = 0.302 m²
[tex]E = A*\frac{B_2 -B_1}{\delta t} \\\\E = 0.302*\frac{1.61-0.7}{29} \\\\E = 0.0095 \ V\\\\E = 9.5 \ mV[/tex]
(b) the magnitude of the induced voltage at a constant magnetic field
E = A x B/t
E = (0.302 x 1.61) / 3.9
E = 0.1247 V
E = 124.7 mV
Therefore, the magnitude of the induced voltage at a constant magnetic field is 124.7 mV

The charge on the dust particle is [tex]q_d = 6.94 *10^{-13} \ C[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The length is [tex]l = 2.0 \ m[/tex]
The width is [tex]w = 4.0 \ m[/tex]
The charge is [tex]q = -10\mu C= -10*10^{-6} \ C[/tex]
The mass suspended in mid-air is [tex]m_a = 5.0 \mu g = 5.0 *10^{-6} \ g = 5.0 *10^{-9} \ kg[/tex]
Generally the electric field on the carpet is mathematically represented as
[tex]E = \frac{q}{ 2 * A * \epsilon _o}[/tex]
Where [tex]\epsilon _o[/tex] is the permittivity 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
[tex]E = \frac{-10*10^{-6}}{ 2 * (2 * 4 ) * 8.85*10^{-12}}[/tex]
[tex]E = -70621.5 \ N/C[/tex]
Generally the electric force keeping the dust particle on the air equal to the force of gravity acting on the particles
[tex]F__{E}} = F__{G}}[/tex]
=> [tex]q_d * E = m * g[/tex]
=> [tex]q_d = \frac{m * g}{E}[/tex]
=> [tex]q_d = \frac{5.0 *10^{-9} * 9.8}{70621.5}[/tex]
=> [tex]q_d = 6.94 *10^{-13} \ C[/tex]
If you wish to observe features that are around the size of atoms, say 5.5 × 10^-10 m, with electromagnetic radiation, the radiation must have a wavelength of about the size of the atom itself.
Required:
a. What is its frequency?
b. What type of electromagnetic radiation might this be?
Answer:
a) 5.5×10^17 Hz
b) visible light
Explanation:
Since the wavelength of the electromagnetic radiation must be about the size of the about itself, this implies that;
λ= 5.5 × 10^-10 m
Since;
c= λ f and c= 3×10^8 ms-1
f= c/λ
f= 3×10^8/5.5 × 10^-10
f= 5.5×10^17 Hz
The electromagnetic wave is visible light

The mass (M) of a piece of metal is directly proportional to its volume (V), where the proportionality constant is the density (D) of the metal. (1) Write an equation that represents this direct proportion, in which D is the proportionality constant. The density of lead metal is 11.3 g/cm3. (2) What is the mass of a piece of lead metal that has a volume of 17.3 cm3
Answer:
1) M = 11.3V2) 195.49 gramsExplanation:
1) If the mass (M) of a piece of metal is directly proportional to its volume (V), where the proportionality constant is the density (D) of the metal, this is expressed mathematically as shown;
M ∝ V
M = kV
For every proportionality sign, there will always be a proportionality constant 'k'
Since the proportionality constant is the density (D) of the metal, the equation will become;
M = DV
Given the density to be 11.3 g/cm3, the equation will become;
M = 11.3V
Hence, the equation that represents this direct proportion, in which D is the proportionality constant with metal density of 11.3g/cm³ is M = 11.3V
2) If the volume of the metal is 17.3cm³, on substituting this values into the equation in (1) to get the mass of the metal, we will have;
M = 11.3V
M = 11.3 * 17.3
M = 195.49 grams
Hence, the mass of a piece of lead metal that has a volume of 17.3 cm³ is 195.49 grams.
NASA is doing research on the concept of solar sailing. A solar sailing craft uses a large, low-mass sail and the energy and momentum of sunlight for propulsion.
A) Should the sail be absorptive or reflective? Why?
B)The total power output of the sun is 3.90 × 1026 W . How large a sail is necessary to propel a 1.06 × 104 kg spacecraft against the gravitational force of the sun?
Answer:
A = 6.8 km²
Explanation:
A) The sail should be reflective. This is so that, it can produce the maximum radiation pressure.
B) let's begin with the formula used to calculate the average solar sail in orbit around the sun. Thus;
F_rad = 2IA/c
I is given by the formula;
I = P/(4πr²)
Thus;
F_rad = (2A/c) × (P/(4πr²)) = PA/2cπr²
Where;
A is the area of the sail
r is the distance of the sail from the sun
c is the speed of light = 3 × 10^(8) m/s
P is total power output of the sun = 3.90 × 10^(26) W
Now,F_rad = F_g
Where F_g is gravitational force.
Thus;
PA/2cπr² = G•m•M_sun/r²
r² will cancel out to givw;
PA/2cπ = G•m•M_sun
Making A the subject, we have;
A = (2•c•π•G•m•M_sun)/P
Now, m = 1.06 × 10⁴ kg and M_sun has a standard value of 1.99 × 10^(30) kg
G is gravitational constant and has a value of 6.67 × 10^(-11) Nm²/kg²
Thus;
A = (2 × 3 × 10^(8) × π × 6.67 × 10^(-11) × 1.06 × 10^(4) × 1.99 × 10^(30))/(3.90 × 10^(26))
A = 6.8 × 10^(6) m² = 6.8 km²
