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 1

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]

A 750 gram grinding wheel 25.0 cm in diameter is in the shape of a uniform solid disk. (we can ignore the small hole at the center). when it is in use, it turns at a consant 220 rpm about an axle perpendicular to its face through its center. When the power switch is turned off, you observe that the wheel stops in 45.0 s with constant angular acceleration due to friction at the axle. What torque does friction exert while this wheel is slowing down?

Answers

Answer:

Torque = 0.012 N.m

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass of wheel;m = 750 g = 0.75 kg

Radius of wheel;r = 25 cm = 0.25 m

Final angular velocity; ω_f = 0

Initial angular velocity; ω_i = 220 rpm

Time taken;t = 45 seconds

Converting 220 rpm to rad/s we have;

220 × 2π/60 = 22π/3 rad/s

Equation of rotational motion is;

ω_f = ω_i + αt

Where α is angular acceleration

Making α the subject, we have;

α = (ω_f - ω_i)/t

α = (0 - 22π/3)/45

α = -0.512 rad/s²

The formula for the Moment of inertia is given as;

I = ½mr²

I = (1/2) × 0.75 × 0.25²

I = 0.0234375 kg.m²

Formula for torque is;

Torque = Iα

For α, we will take the absolute value as the negative sign denotes decrease in acceleration.

Thus;

Torque = 0.0234375 × 0.512

Torque = 0.012 N.m

When a mercury thermometer is heated, the mercury expands and rises in the thin tube of glass. What does this indicate about the relative rates of expansion for mercury and glass

Answers

Answer:

This means that mercury has a higher or faster expansion rate than glass

Explanation:

This is because When a container expands, the reservoir in the glass expands at the same rate as the glass. Thus, if there is something in a glass and both expand at the same rate, they have no change - but if the contents expand faster, they will fill the container to a higher level, and if the contents expand slower, they will fill the container to a lower level (relative to the new size of the container).

Explanation:

Given that,

The refractive index of benzene is 2.419

We need to find the speed of light in benzene. The ratio of speed of light in vacuum to the speed of light in the medium equals the refractive index. So,

[tex]n=\dfrac{c}{v}\\\\v=\dfrac{c}{n}\\\\v=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{2.419}\\\\v=1.24\times 10^8\ m/s[/tex]

So, the speed of light in bezene is [tex]1.24\times 10^8\ m/s[/tex].

The linear density rho in a rod 3 m long is 8/ x + 1 kg/m, where x is measured in meters from one end of the rod. Find the average density rhoave of the rod.

Answers

Answer:

The average density of the rod is 1.605 kg/m.

Explanation:

The average density of the rod is given by:

[tex] \rho = \frac{m}{l} [/tex]    

To find the average density we need to integrate the linear density from x₁ = 0 to x₂ = 3, as follows:

[tex] \int_{0}^{3} \frac{8}{3(x + 1)}dx [/tex]

[tex] \rho = \frac{8}{3} \int_{0}^{3} \frac{1}{(x + 1)}dx [/tex]   (1)

Using u = x+1  →  du = dx  → u₁= x₁+1 = 0+1 = 1 and u₂ = x₂+1 = 3+1 = 4

By entering the values above into (1), we have:

[tex] \rho = \frac{8}{3} \int_{0}^{3} \frac{1}{u}du [/tex]

[tex]\rho = \frac{8}{3}*log(u)|_{1}^{4} = \frac{8}{3}[log(4) - log(1)] = 1.605 kg/m[/tex]

Therefore, the average density of the rod is 1.605 kg/m.

The average density of the rod is  [tex]1.605 \;\rm kg/m^{3}[/tex].

Given data:

The length of rod is, L = 3 m.

The linear density of rod is, [tex]\rho=\dfrac{8}{x+1} \;\rm kg/m[/tex].

To find the average density we need to integrate the linear density from x₁ = 0 to x₂ = 3,  The expression for the average density is given as,

[tex]\rho' = \int\limits^3_0 { \rho} \, dx\\\\\\\rho' = \int\limits^3_0 { \dfrac{m}{L}} \, dx\\\\\\\rho' = \int\limits^3_0 {\dfrac{8}{3(x+1)}} \, dx[/tex]............................................................(1)

Using u = x+1  

du = dx

u₁= x₁+1 = 0+1 = 1

and

u₂ = x₂+1 = 3+1 = 4

Water flows at speed v in a pipe of radius R. At what speed does the water flow through a constriction in which the radius of the pipe is R/3

Answers

Answer:

   v₂ = 9 v

Explanation:

For this exercise in fluid mechanics, let's use the continuity equation

           v₁ A₁ = v₂ A₂

where v is the velocity of the fluid, A the area of ​​the pipe and the subscripts correspond to two places of interest.

The area of ​​a circle is

           A = π R²

let's use the subscript 1 for the starting point and the subscript 2 for the part with the constraint

     

In this case v₁ = v and the area is

            A₁ = π R²

in the second point

           A₂= π (R / 3)²

we substitute in the continuity equation

           v π R² = v₂ π R² / 9

            v = v₂ / 9

           

            v₂ = 9 v

UVC light used in sterilizers, has wavelengths between 100 to 280 nm. If a certain UVC wave has a wavelength of 142.9 nm, what is the energy of one of its photons in J

Answers

Answer:

The energy of one of its photons is 1.391 x 10⁻¹⁸ J

Explanation:

Given;

wavelength of the UVC light, λ = 142.9 nm = 142.9 x 10⁻⁹ m

The energy of one photon of the UVC light is given by;

E = hf

where;

h is Planck's constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J/s

f is frequency of the light

f = c / λ

where;

c is speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

λ  is wavelength

substitute in the value of f into the main equation;

E = hf

[tex]E = \frac{hc}{\lambda} \\\\E = \frac{6.626*10^{-34} *3*10^{8}}{142.9*10^{-9}} \\\\E = 1.391*10^{-18} \ J[/tex]

An air-filled capacitor consists of two parallel plates, each with an area of 7.60 cm^2, separated by a distance of 1.70 mm. A 25.0-V potential difference is applied to these plates. Calculate: a. the electric field between the plates b. the surface charge density c. the capacitance d. the charge on each plate.

Answers

Answer:

(a) 1.47 x 10⁴ V/m

(b) 1.28 x 10⁻⁷C/m²

(c) 3.9 x 10⁻¹²F

(d) 9.75 x 10⁻¹¹C

Explanation:

(a) For a parallel plate capacitor, the electric field E between the plates is given by;

E = V / d               -----------(i)

Where;

V = potential difference applied to the plates

d = distance between these plates

From the question;

V = 25.0V

d = 1.70mm = 0.0017m

Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;

E = 25.0 / 0.0017

E = 1.47 x 10⁴ V/m

(c) The capacitance of the capacitor is given by

C = Aε₀ / d

Where

C = capacitance

A = Area of the plates = 7.60cm² = 0.00076m²

ε₀ = permittivity of free space =  8.85 x 10⁻¹²F/m

d = 1.70mm = 0.0017m

C = 0.00076 x  8.85 x 10⁻¹² / 0.0017

C = 3.9 x 10⁻¹²F

(d) The charge, Q, on each plate can be found as follows;

Q = C V

Q =  3.9 x 10⁻¹² x 25.0

Q = 9.75 x 10⁻¹¹C

Now since we have found other quantities, it is way easier to find the surface charge density.

(b) The surface charge density, σ, is the ratio of the charge Q on each plate to the area A of the plates. i.e

σ = Q / A

σ = 9.75 x 10⁻¹¹ /  0.00076

σ = 1.28 x 10⁻⁷C/m²

Suppose that you know that the mass of the unknown object is more than a kilogram.

Answers

Answer:

a) k = 95.54 N / m,   c =   19.55 , b)      m₃ = 0.9078 kg

Explanation:

In a simple harmonic movement with friction, we can assume that this is provided by the speed

          fr = -c v

when solving the system the angular value remains

          w² = w₀² + (c / 2m)²

They give two conditions

1) m₁ = 1 kg

     f₁ = 1.1 Hz

the angular velocity is related to frequency

         w = 2π f₁

Let's find the angular velocity without friction is

         w₂ = k / m₁

we substitute

        (2π f₁)² = k / m₁ + (c / 2m₁)²

2) m₂ = 2 kg

    f₂ = 0.8 Hz

        (2π f₂)² = k / m₂ + (c / 2m₂)²

we have a system of two equations with two unknowns, so we can solve it

we solve (c / 2m)² is we equalize the expression

           (2π f₁)² - k / m₁ = (2π f₂²) 2 - k / m₁

           k (1 / m₂ - 1 / m₁) = 4π² (f₂² - f₁²)

           k = 4π² (f₂² -f₁²) / (1 / m₂ - 1 / m₁)

a) Let's calculate

           k = 4 π² (0.8² -1.1²) / (½ -1/1)

           k = 39.4784 (1.21) / (-0.5)

           k = 95.54 N / m

now we can find the constant of friction

              (2π f₁) 2 = k / m₁ + (c / 2m₁)²

           c2 = ((2π f₁)² - k / m₁) 4m₁²

           c2 = (4ππ² f₁² - k / m₁) 4 m₁²

let's calculate

           c² = (4π² 1,1² - 95,54 / 1) 4 1²

           c² = (47.768885 - 95.54) 8

           c² = -382.1689

           c =   19.55    

b) f₃ = 0.2 Hz

   m₃ =?

              (2πf₃)² = k / m₃ + (c / 2m₃) 2

we substitute the values

              (4π² 0.2²) = 95.54 / m₃ + 382.1689 2/4 m₃²

              1.579 = 95.54 / m₃ + 95.542225 / m₃²

let's call

              x = 1 / m₃

              x² = 1 / m₃²

- 1.579 + 95.54 x + 95.542225 x² = 0

              60.5080 x² + 60.5080 x -1 = 0

                x² + x - 1.65 10⁻² = 0

                  x = [1 ±√ (1- 4 (-1.65 10⁻²)] / 2

                  x = [1 ± 1.03] / 2

                  x₁ = 1.015 kg

                  x₂ = -0.015 kg

Since the mass must be positive we eliminate the second results

                  x₁ = 1 / m₃

                 m₃ = 1 / x₁

                  m₃ = 1 / 1.1015

Answers

Answer:

e. It is neither attracted nor repelled.

Explanation:

Electrostatic attraction or repulsion occurs between two or more charged particles or conductors. In this case, if the negatively charged ball is brought close to the neutral end A of the rod, there would be no attraction or repulsion between the rod end A and the negatively charged ball. This is because a charged particle or conductor has no attraction or repulsion to a neutral particle or conductor.

A resistor made of Nichrome wire is used in an application where its resistance cannot change more than 1.35% from its value at 20.0°C. Over what temperature range can it be used (in °C)?

Answers

Answer:

Pls seeattached file

Explanation:

A resistor made of Ni chrome wire is used in an application where its resistance cannot be more than 1.35 % so its temperature range will be from 33.75 to -33.75 °C.

What is Resistance?

Electrical resistance, or resistance to electricity, is a force that opposes the flow of current. Ohms are used to expressing resistance values.

When there is an electron difference between two terminals, electricity will flow from high to low. In opposition to that flow is resistance. As resistance rises, the current declines. On the other side, when the resistance falls, the current rises.

According to the question,

R = R₀ (1 + α ΔT)

(1 + 0.0135)R₀ = R₀(1 + α ΔT)

ΔT = (1 + 0.0135) / α

= 0.0135 / 0.0004

= 33.75 °C.

ΔT = [(1 - 0.0135) -1]/0.004

If Superman really had x-ray vision at 0.12 nm wavelength and a 4.1 mm pupil diameter, at what maximum altitude could he distinguish villains from heroes, assuming that he needs to resolve points separated by 5.4 cm to do this?

Answers

Answer:

Maximum altitude to see(L) =  1.47 × 10⁶ m (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

wavelength (λ) = 0.12 nm = 0.12 × 10⁻⁹ m

Pupil Diameter (d) = 4.1 mm = 4 × 10⁻³ m

Separation distance (D) = 5.4 cm = 0.054 m

Find:

Maximum altitude to see(L)

Computation:

Resolving power = 1.22(λ / d)

D / L = 1.22(λ / d)

0.054 / L = 1.22 [(0.12 × 10⁻⁹) / (4 × 10⁻³ m)]

0.054 / L = 1.22 [0.03 × 10⁻⁶]

L = 0.054 / 1.22 [0.03 × 10⁻⁶]

L = 0.054 / [0.0366 × 10⁻⁶]

L = 1.47 × 10⁶

Maximum altitude to see(L) =  1.47 × 10⁶ m (Approx)

A nearsighted person has a far point that is 4.2 m from his eyes. What focal length lenses in diopters he must use in his contacts to allow him to focus on distant objects?

Answers

Answer:

-0.24diopters

Explanation:

The lens is intended that makes an object at infinity appear to be 4.2 m away, so do=infinity, dI = - 4.2m (minus sign because image is on same side of lens as object)

So 1/do +1/di = 1/f

1/infinity + 1/-4.2 = 1/f

1/f = 1/-4.2 = -0.24diopters

Light of wavelength 500 nm falls on two slits spaced 0.2 mm apart. If the spacing between the first and third dark fringes is to be 4.0 mm, what is the distance from the slits to a screen?

Answers

Answer:

L = 0.8 m

Explanation:

Since, the distance between first and third dark fringes is 4 mm. Therefore, the fringe spacing between consecutive dark fringes will be:

Δx = 4 mm/2 = 2 mm = 2 x 10⁻³ m

but,

Δx = λL/d

λ = wavelength of the light = 500 nm = 5 x 10⁻⁷ m

d = slit spacing = 0.2 mm = 0.2 x 10⁻³ m

L = Distance between slits and screen = ?

Therefore, using the values, we get:

2 x 10⁻³ m = (5 x 10⁻⁷ m)(L)/(0.2 x 10⁻³)

L = (2 x 10⁻³ m)(0.2 x 10⁻³ m)/(5 x 10⁻⁷ m)

L = 0.8 m

       [tex]A = 3.142 * (1.4*10^{-3})^2[/tex]

       [tex]A = 6.158*10^{-6} \ m^2[/tex]

So

    [tex]J = \frac{ 4.5 }{6.158*10^{-6}}[/tex]

    [tex]J = 730757 A/m^2[/tex]

So

       [tex]E = \frac{ 730757}{3.5*10^{7} }[/tex]

       [tex]E = 0.021 \ N/C[/tex]

If one could transport a simple pendulum of constant length from the Earth's surface to the Moon's, where acceleration due to gravity is one-sixth (1/6) that on the Earth, by what factor would be the pendulum frequency be changed

Answers

Answer:

The frequency will change by a factor of 0.4

Explanation:

T = 2(pi)*sqrt(L/g)

Since g(moon) = (1/6)g(earth), the period would change by sqrt[1/(1/6)] = sqrt(6) ~ 2.5 times longer on the moon. Since the period & frequency are inverses, the frequency would be 1/2.5 or 0.4 times shorter on the moon.

A string of holiday lights has 15 bulbs with equal resistances. If one of the bulbs
is removed, the other bulbs still glow. But when the entire string of bulbs is
connected to a 120-V outlet, the current through the bulbs is 5.0 A. What is the
resistance of each bulb?

Answers

Answer:

Resistance of each bulb = 360 ohms

Explanation:

Let each bulb have a resistance r .

Since, even after removing one of the bulbs, the circuit is closed and the other bulbs glow. Therfore, the bulbs are connected in Parallel connection.

[tex] \frac{1}{r(equivalent)} = \frac{1}{r1} + \frac{1}{r2} + + + + \frac{1}{r15} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{1}{r(equivalent)} = \frac{15}{r} [/tex]

R(equivalent) = r/15

Now, As per Ohms Law :

V = I * R(equivalent)

120 V = 5 A * r/15

r = 360 ohms

An unstable particle at rest spontaneously breaks into two fragments of unequal mass. The mass of the first fragment is 3.00 10-28 kg, and that of the other is 1.86 10-27 kg. If the lighter fragment has a speed of 0.844c after the breakup, what is the speed of the heavier fragment

Answers

Answer: Speed = [tex]3.10^{-31}[/tex] m/s

Explanation: Like in classical physics, when external net force is zero, relativistic momentum is conserved, i.e.:

[tex]p_{f} = p_{i}[/tex]

Relativistic momentum is calculated as:

p = [tex]\frac{mu}{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^{2}}{c^{2}} } }[/tex]

where:

m is rest mass

u is velocity relative to an observer

c is light speed, which is constant (c=[tex]3.10^{8}[/tex]m/s)

Initial momentum is zero, then:

[tex]p_{f}[/tex] = 0

[tex]p_{1}-p_{2}[/tex] = 0

[tex]p_{1} = p_{2}[/tex]

To find speed of the heavier fragment:

[tex]\frac{mu_{1}}{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^{2}_{1}}{c^{2}} } }=\frac{mu_{2}}{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^{2}_{2}}{c^{2}} } }[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1.86.10^{-27}u_{1}}{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^{2}_{1}}{(3.10^{8})^{2}} } }=\frac{3.10^{-28}.0.844.3.10^{8}}{\sqrt{1-\frac{(0.844c)^{2}}{c^{2}} } }[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1.86.10^{-27}u_{1}}{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^{2}_{1}}{(3.10^{8})^{2}} } }=1.42.10^{-19}[/tex]

[tex]1.86.10^{-27}u_{1} = 1.42.10^{-19}.{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^{2}_{1}}{(3.10^{8})^{2}} } }[/tex]

[tex](1.86.10^{-27}u_{1})^{2} = (1.42.10^{-19}.{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^{2}_{1}}{(3.10^{8})^{2}} } })^{2}[/tex]

[tex]3.46.10^{-54}.u_{1}^{2} = 2.02.10^{-38}.(1-\frac{u_{1}^{2}}{9.10^{16}} )[/tex]

[tex]3.46.10^{-54}.u_{1}^{2} = 2.02.10^{-38} -[2.02.10^{-38}(\frac{u_{1}^{2}}{9.10^{16}} )][/tex]

[tex]3.46.10^{-54}.u_{1}^{2} = 2.02.10^{-38} -2.24.10^{-23}.u^{2}_{1}[/tex]

[tex]3.46.10^{-54}.u_{1}^{2}+2.24.10^{-23}.u^{2}_{1} = 2.02.10^{-38}[/tex]

[tex]2.24.10^{-23}.u^{2}_{1} = 2.02.10^{-38}[/tex]

[tex]u^{2}_{1} = \frac{2.02.10^{-38}}{2.24.10^{-23}}[/tex]

[tex]u_{1} = \sqrt{9.02.10^{-62}}[/tex]

[tex]u_{1} = 3.10^{-31}[/tex]

The speed of the heavier fragment is [tex]u_{1} = 3.10^{-31}[/tex]m/s.

You're conducting an experiment on another planet. You drop a rock from a height of 1 m and it hits the ground 0.4 seconds later. What is acceleration due to gravity on the planet ?

Answers

Answer:

Here,

v (final velocity) = 0

u (initial velocity) = u

a = ?

s = 1m

t = 0.4s

using the first equation of motion,

0 = u + 0.4a

= -0.4a = u

using the second equation of motion:

1 = 0.4u + 0.08a

from the bold equation

1 = 0.4(-0.4a) + 0.08a

1 = -0.16a + 0.08a

1 = -0.08a

a = -1/0.08

a = -100/8

a = -12.5 m/s/s

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 wavelength (in cm) of the first harmonic?

Answers

Answer:

200cm

Explanation:

Answer:

100cm

Explanation:

Using

F= ( N/2L)(√T/u)

F1 will now be (0.5*2)( √600/0.015)

=> L( wavelength)= 200/2cm = 100cm
