A train whose proper length is 1200 m passes at a high speed through a station whose platform measures 900 m, and the station master observes that when the train passes it occupies exactly the entire length of the platform. What is the speed of the train?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.66c

Explanation:

Use length contraction equation:

L = L₀ √(1 − (v²/c²))

where L is the contracted length,

L₀ is the length at 0 velocity,

v is the velocity,

and c is the speed of light.

900 = 1200 √(1 − (v²/c²))

3/4 = √(1 − (v²/c²))

9/16 = 1 − (v²/c²)

v²/c² = 7/16

v = ¼√7 c

v ≈ 0.66 c

A plane drops a package for delivery. The plane is flying horizontally at a speed of 120m/s,and the package travels 255 m horizontally during the drop. We can ignore air resistance.What is the package's vertical displacement during the drop?

Answers

Answer:

Package's vertical displacement(s) = 22.12 meter

Explanation:

Given:

Speed of plane = 120 m/s

Total distance = 255 m

Find:

Package's vertical displacement(s)

Computation:

Time taken = Distance / Speed

Time taken = Total distance / Speed of plane

Time taken = 255 / 120

Time taken = 2.125 s

Acceleration due to gravity(g) = 9.8 m/s²

Initial velocity (u) = 0

So,

Package's vertical displacement(s) = ut + (1/2)gt²

Package's vertical displacement(s) = (0)(2.125) + (1/2)(9.8)(2.125)²

Package's vertical displacement(s) = 22.12 meter

The specific latent heat of vaporisation of water is 2200 kJ kg, and the specific
heat capacity of water is 4200 J/ kg.K. A heating element is immersed in an
insulated cup of water. It takes five minutes to boil the water completely from an
initial temperature of 30°C. Assuming no heat is lost to the surroundings,
determine the mass of the water if the heating element is operating at 1000 W.​

Answers

Answer:

0.12 kg

Explanation:

The amount of energy added is:

1000 W × (5 min × 60 s/min) = 300,000 J = 300 kJ

Heat to boil the water is:

q = mCΔT + mL

q = m (CΔT + L)

300 kJ = m (4.2 kJ/kg/K × (100°C − 30°C) + 2200 kJ/kg)

300 kJ = m (2494 kJ/kg)

m = 0.12 kg

Ask Your Teacher An electric utility company supplies a customer's house from the main power lines (120 V) with two copper wires, each of which is 34.0 m long and has a resistance of 0.109 Ω per 300 m. (a) Find the potential difference at the customer's house for a load current of 116 A.

Answers

Answer:

The potential difference at the customer's house is 117.1 V.

Explanation:

a) The potential difference at the customer's house can be calculated as follows:

[tex] \Delta V_{h} = \Delta V_{p} - \Delta V_{l} [/tex]

Where:

[tex]V_{h}[/tex]: is the potential difference at the customer's house

[tex]V_{p}[/tex]: is the potential difference from the main power lines = 120 V

[tex]V_{l}[/tex]: is the potential difference from the lines

[tex] \Delta V_{h} = \Delta V_{p} - IR [/tex]

The resistance, R, is:

[tex]\frac{0.109 \Omega}{300 m}*2*34.0 m = 0.025 \Omega[/tex]

Now, the potential difference at the customer's house is:

[tex]\Delta V_{h} = 120 V - 116A*0.025 \Omega = 117.1 V[/tex]

Therefore, the potential difference at the customer's house is 117.1 V.

A uniform string of length 10.0 m and weight 0.32 N is attached to the ceiling. A weight of 1.00 kN hangs from its lower end. The lower end of the string is suddenly displaced horizontally. How long does it take the resulting wave pulse to travel to the upper end

Answers

Answer: 0.0180701 s

Explanation:

Given the following :

Length of string (L) = 10 m

Weight of string (W) = 0.32 N

Weight attached to lower end = 1kN = 1×10^3

Using the relation:

Time (t) = √ (weight of string * Length) / weight attached to lower end * acceleration due to gravity

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s^2

Weight of string = 0.32N

Time(t) = √ (0.32 * 10) / [(1*10^3) * (9.8)]

Time = √3.2 / 9800

= √0.0003265

= 0.0180701s

Answers

Answer:

The concentration of OH⁻ in the mixture is 0.05 M

Explanation:

The reaction of neutralization between HCl and NaOH is the following:

H⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq) ⇄  H₂O(l)

The number of moles of HCl is:

[tex] n_{HCl} = C*V = 0.1 mol/L*0.250L = 0.025 moles [/tex]

Similarly, the number of moles of NaOH is:

[tex] n_{NaOH} = C*V = 0.2 mol/L*0.250L = 0.05 moles [/tex]

Now, from the reaction of HCl and NaOH we have the following number of moles of NaOH remaining:

[tex] n_{NaOH} = 0.05 moles - 0.025 moles = 0.025 moles [/tex]

Finally, the concentration of OH⁻ in the mixture is:

[tex]C =\frac{n_{NaOH}}{V_{T}}=\frac{0.025 moles}{0.250*2 L} = 0.05 moles/L[/tex]

Therefore, the concentration of OH⁻ in the mixture is 0.05 M.

If the person knows that the monkey is going to drop from the tree at the same instant that the person launches the food, how should the person aim the arrow containing the food? Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer:

He should aim it at the monkey

Explanation:

The question is related to projectile motion of an arrow from a bow such that the arrow is able to reach a specific target

Therefore, since the monkey is going to drop from the tree the instant the person launches the food, then for the monkey to be able reach the food, we have;

Final level position of the launched food should be ≥ The level of the monkey

As the monkey is dropping from the tree the destination of the launched food should be at the monkey so that before the food gets to the position where the monkey was when launching the food with the arrow, the monkey will be slightly lower so as to be able to catch the food or return up the tree to get the food rather than the food falling to the ground.

A wave travels at 295 m/s and has a wavelength of 2.50 m. What is the frequency of the wave?
O 118 Hz
O 292 Hz
O297 Hz
O 738 Hz

Answers

Answer:

[tex]118\; \rm Hz[/tex].

Explanation:

The frequency [tex]f[/tex] of a wave is equal to the number of wave cycles that go through a point on its path in unit time (where "unit time" is typically equal to one second.)

The wave in this question travels at a speed of [tex]v= 295\; \rm m\cdot s^{-1}[/tex]. In other words, the wave would have traveled [tex]295\; \rm m[/tex] in each second. Consider a point on the path of this wave. If a peak was initially at that point, in one second that peak would be

How many wave cycles can fit into that [tex]295\; \rm m[/tex]? The wavelength of this wave[tex]\lambda = 2.50\; \rm m[/tex] gives the length of one wave cycle. Therefore:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{295\;\rm m}{2.50\; \rm m} = 118[/tex].

That is: there are [tex]118[/tex] wave cycles in [tex]295\; \rm m[/tex] of this wave.

On the other hand, Because that [tex]295\; \rm m[/tex] of this wave goes through that point in each second, that [tex]118[/tex] wave cycles will go through that point in the same amount of time. Hence, the frequency of this wave would be

Because one wave cycle per second is equivalent to one Hertz, the frequency of this wave can be written as:

[tex]f = 118\; \rm s^{-1} = 118\; \rm Hz[/tex].

The calculations above can be expressed with the formula:

[tex]\displaystyle f = \frac{v}{\lambda}[/tex],

where

[tex]v[/tex] represents the speed of this wave, and [tex]\lambda[/tex] represents the wavelength of this wave.

The magnetic field perpendicular to a single 13.2-cm diameter circular loop of copper wire decreases uniformly from 0.670 T to zero. If the wire is 2.25 mm in diameter, how much charge moves past a point in the coil during this operation? (rhoCu = 1.68 x 10-8 Ω.m)

Answers

Answer:

5.23 C

Explanation:

The current in the wire is given by I = ε/R where ε = induced emf in the wire and R = resistance of wire.

Now, ε = -ΔΦ/Δt where ΔΦ = change in magnetic flux = AΔB and A = area of loop and ΔB = change in magnetic field intensity = B₂ - B₁

B₁ = 0.670 T and B₂ = 0 T

ΔB = B₂ - B₁ = 0 - 0.670 T = - 0.670 T

A = πD²/4 where D = diameter of circular loop = 13.2 cm = 0.132 m

A = π(0.132 m)²/4 = 0.01368 m² = `1.368 × 10⁻² m²

ε = -ΔΦ/Δt = -AΔB/Δt = -1.368 × 10⁻² m² × (-0.670 T)/Δt= 0.9166 × 10⁻² Tm²/Δt

Now, the resistance R of the circular wire R = ρl/A' where ρ = resistivity of copper wire =  1.68 x 10⁻⁸ Ω.m, l = length of wire = πD and A' = cross-sectional area of wire = πd²/4 where d = diameter of wire = 2.25 mm = 2.25 × 10⁻³ m

R = ρl/A' = 1.68 x 10⁻⁸ Ω.m × π × 0.132 m÷π(2.25 × 10⁻³ m)²/4 = 0.88704/5.0625 = 0.1752 × 10⁻² Ω = 1.752 × 10⁻³ Ω

So, I = ε/R = 0.9166 × 10⁻² Tm²/Δt1.752 × 10⁻³ Ω  

IΔt = 0.9166 × 10⁻² Tm²/1.752 × 10⁻³ Ω = 0.5232 × 10 C

Since ΔQ = It = 5.232 C ≅ 5.23 C

So the charge is 5.23 C

The induced emf through wire depends on the current flow (indirectly with charge flow as well).

The value of charge moving past a point in the coil during its operations is 5.23 C.

What is the magnetic field?

The region in a space where a particle experiences some magnetic force, is known as the magnetic field.

Given data -

The diameter of the circular loop is, d = 13.2 cm = 0.132 m.

The change in magnetic field strength is, ΔB = 0.670 T.

The new diameter of the wire is, d' = 2.25 mm = 2.25 × 10³ m.

The resistivity of the wire is, [tex]\rho = 1.68 \times 10^{-8} \;\rm \Omega.m[/tex].

The current in the wire is given by the following expression,

I = ε/R

Here,

ε is the induced emf in the wire.

R is the resistance of the wire.

And the expression for the induced emf of the wire is given as,

ε = -ΔΦ/Δt

Here,

ΔΦ is the change in magnetic flux. And its expression is,

ε = A × ΔB

Here,

A is the area of the loop. And its value is, A = πd²/4.

Solving as,

A = π(0.132 m)²/4

A = 0.01368 m²
A = `1.368 × 10⁻² m²

Now, calculating the induced emf as,

ε = ΔΦ/Δt

ε = A × ΔB/Δt

ε = 1.368 × 10⁻² m² × (0.670 T)/Δt

ε = 0.9166 × 10⁻² Tm²/Δt

Now, the resistance R of the circular wire is,

R = ρ × L/A'

Here,

L is the length of the wire and its value is. L = πd .

And A' is the new cross-sectional area of wire,

A' = πd'²/4

So, the resistance is,

R = ρ × L/A'

R = 1.68 x 10⁻⁸  ×( π × 0.132 m) ÷ π(2.25 × 10⁻³ m)²/4 =

R = 0.88704/5.0625

R = 0.1752 × 10⁻² Ω

R = 1.752 × 10⁻³ Ω

Now, the current flow (I) in the wire is given as,

I = ε/R

I = 0.9166 × 10⁻² Tm²/Δt1.752 × 10⁻³ Ω  

And obtaining the value of charge from the expression of current as,

Q = IΔt
Q = 0.9166 × 10⁻² Tm²/1.752 × 10⁻³ Ω

Q = 0.5232 × 10 C

Q = 5.23 C

Thus, we can conclude that the value of charge moving past a point in the coil during its operations is 5.23 C.

What is their final velocity?

Answers

Answer:

0.252 m/s

Explanation:

Applying the law of conservation of momentum,

Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision

Note: From the question, The collision between the car and the train is an inelastic collision and as such, both move with a common velocity after collision.

mu+m'u' = V(m+m')................... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the train, u' = initial velocity of the train, m' = mass of the car, u' = initial velocity of the car, V = common velocity after collision.

make V the subject of the equation

V = (mu+m'u')/(m+m')............... Equation 2

Given: m = 270000 kg, u = 0.325 m/s, m' = 52500 kg, u' = -0.12 m/s

Substitute these values into equation 2

V = [(270000×0.325)+{52500(-0.12)}]/(270000+52500)

V = 81450/322500

V = 0.252 m/s

Two small, identical conducting spheres repel each other with a force of 0.035 N when they are 0.35 m apart. After a conducting wire is connected between the spheres and then removed, they repel each other with a force of 0.055 N. What is the original charge on each sphere? (Enter the magnitudes in C.)

Answers

Explanation:

Given:

distance between two sphere =0.35 m

Electrical repel force =0.035 N

Electrical repel force after connecting wire =0.055 N.

The electrical force between the two spheres:

[tex]F=k \frac{q_{1} q_{2}}{r^{2}}[/tex]

The electrical force between the two spheres after the wire is attached and removed:

[tex]F=k \frac{q^{2}}{r^{2}}[/tex]

[tex]q^{2}=\frac{F r^{2}}{k}[/tex]

[tex]q=r \sqrt{\frac{F}{k}}=0.35 \times \sqrt{\frac{0.055}{8.99 \times 10^{9}}}=6.46 \times 10^{-7} \mathrm{C}[/tex]

So the total charge of the two spheres [tex]=2 q=2 \times 6.46 \times 10^{-7}=1.29 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{C}[/tex]

Then before connecting the wire, one sphere charge was [tex]q[tex] and the charge of the other sphere was [tex]\left(1.29 \times 10^{-6}-q\right)[/tex]

The electrical force between the two spheres before connecting the wire:

[tex]F=k \frac{q\left(1.29 \times 10^{-6}-q\right)}{r^{2}}[/tex]

[tex]q\left(1.29 \times 10^{-6}-q\right)=\frac{F r^{2}}{k}=\frac{0.035 \times(0.35)^{2}}{8.99 \times 10^{9}}=0.348 \times 10^{-12}[/tex]

[tex]-q^{2}+\left(1.29 \times 10^{-6}\right) q-\left(0.348 \times 10^{-12}\right)=0[/tex]

sliding friction is _ than the static friction.

Answers

Answer:

less

Explanation:

Sliding friction is always less than static friction. This is because in sliding friction, the bodies slide with each other and thus the effect of friction is not more. However, it does not happen in the case of static friction.



During a collision with another car, the occupants of a minivan initially travelling at 4.0 m/s come to a complete stop in 0.5 s. What was the acceleration of the occupants of the minivan?



a) 8.0 m/s2



b) –8.0 m/s2



c) 2.0 m/s2



d) –2.0 m/s2

Answers

Answer: b) - 8.0 [tex]m/s^{2}[/tex]

Explanation: Acceleration is a vector indicating a rate an object's velocity changes over time:

a = [tex]\frac{v}{t}[/tex]

and its SI unit is [tex]m/s^{2}[/tex]

For the minivan to stop, it takes a period of 0.5s:

a = [tex]\frac{4.0}{0.5}[/tex]

a = 8.0 [tex]m/s^{2}[/tex]

As a vector, acceleration has magnitude (8[tex]m/s^{2}[/tex]) and direction. Since it is stopping, the minivan has a direction opposite to the other car, which means acceleration is negative. So: a = [tex]- 8.0 m/s^{2}[/tex].
