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?

Answers

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

A single slit 1.5 mm wide is illuminated by 420- nm light. Part A What is the width of the central maximum (in cm ) in the diffraction pattern on a screen 4.5 m away

Answers

Answer:

The width is [tex]w_c = 0.00252 \ m[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  width of the single slit is  [tex]a = 1.5 \ mm = 1.5 *10^{-3} \ m[/tex]

   The  wavelength is  [tex]\lambda = 420 *10^{-9} \ m[/tex]

   The distance of the screen is  [tex]D = 4.5 \ m[/tex]

Generally the width of the central maximum is  

        [tex]w_c = 2 * y[/tex]

where y is the width of the first maxima which is mathematically represented as

       [tex]y = \frac{\lambda * D}{a}[/tex]

=>   [tex]y = \frac{ 420 *10^{-9} * 4.5}{ 1.5*10^{-3}}[/tex]

=>  [tex]y = 0.00126 \ m[/tex]

So

    [tex]w_c = 2 *0.00126[/tex]

    [tex]w_c = 0.00252 \ m[/tex]

Explanation:

If we use Gauss's law

: A spaceship is traveling at the speed 2t 2 1 km/s (t is time in seconds). It is pointing directly away from earth and at time t 0 it is 1000 kilometers from earth. How far from earth is it at one minute from time t 0

Answers

Answer:

145060km

Explanation: Given that

speed = dx/dt = 2t^2 +1

integrate

x = 2/3t^3 + t + c (c is constant, x is in km, t is in second)

given that at t=0, x = 1000

so 1000 = 2/3 X (0)^3 + 0 + c

or c = 1000

So x = 2/3t^3 + t + 1000

for t = 1 min = 60s

x = 2/3 X 60^3 + 60 + 1000

x = 2/3×216000+ 1060

x = 144000+1060

= 145060km

At one minute, it will be 145060km far from the earth

A square loop, length l on each side, is shot with velocity v0 into a uniform magnetic field B. The field is perpendicular to the plane of the loop. The loop has mass m and resistance R, and it enters the field at t = 0s. Assume that the loop is moving to the right along the x-axis and that the field begins at x = 0m.

Required:
Find an expression for the loop's velocity as a function of time as it enters the magnetic field.

Answers

Answer:

v₀(1 + B²L²t/mR)

Explanation:

We know that the force on the loop is F = BIL where B = magnetic field strength, I = current and L = length of side of loop. Now the current in the loop I = ε/R where ε = induced e.m.f in the loop = BLv₀ where v₀ = velocity of loop and r = resistance of loop

F = BIL = B(BLv₀)L/R = B²L²v₀/R  

Since F = ma where a = acceleration of loop and m = mass of loop

a = F/m = B²L²v₀/mR

Using v = u + at where u = initial velocity of loop = v₀, t = time after t = 0 and v = velocity of loop after time t = 0

Substituting the value of a and u into v, we have

v = v₀ + B²L²v₀t/mR

= v₀(1 + B²L²t/mR)

So the velocity of the loop after time t is v = v₀(1 + B²L²t/mR)

The expression for the loop's velocity as a function of time as it enters the magnetic field is v = v₀(1 + B²L²t/mR).

Calculation of the loop velocity:

As we know that

Force on the loop

F = BIL

here

B = magnetic field strength,

I = current

and L = length of side of loop.

Now

the current in the loop I = ε/R

where

ε = induced e.m.f in the loop = BLv₀

where v₀ = velocity of loop

and r = resistance of loop

So,

F = BIL = B(BLv₀)L/R = B²L²v₀/R  

Also, F = ma where a = acceleration of loop and m = mass of loop

Now

a = F/m = B²L²v₀/mR

We have to use

v = u + at

where

u = initial velocity of loop = v₀,

t = time after t = 0

and v = velocity of loop after time t = 0

So, it be like

v = v₀ + B²L²v₀t/mR

= v₀(1 + B²L²t/mR)

An 1,820 W toaster, a 1,420 W electric frying pan, and a 55 W lamp are plugged into the same outlet in a 15 A, 120 V circuit. (The three devices are in parallel when plugged into the same socket.)

Required:
a. What current is drawn by each device?
b. Will this combination blow the 15-A fuse?

Answers

Answer:

toaster- 15.1A

electric frying pan- 11.8 A

lamp- 0.5 A

b) The combination will blow the fuse.

Explanation:

When devices are connected in parallel, the potential difference across each of the devices is the same but the current through each is different. Hence;

V= 120 V

Power= IV

For the toaster;

I= 1820/120 = 15.1 A

For the electric frying pan;

I= 1420/120 = 11.8 A

For the lamp;

55/120 = 0.5 A

Total current = 15.1 +11.8 + 0.5 = 27.4 A

The combination will blow the fuse.

Explanation:    

step one:

Given data

power of toaster= 1,820 W  

power of electric frying pan= 1,420 W  

power of lamp= 55 W  

current of the outlet= 15 A

voltage of outlet = 120 V

step two

since all  three appliances are connected in parallel to the socket outlet, they will use the same voltage of 120 V and the currents will be different across each appliance,

Hence the current across the Toaster will be I₁

using P=I₁V we have

I₁= P/V

I₁= 1820/120 =  15.16 A

A. The current drawn by each device

the current across the  electric frying pan will be I₂

using P=I₂V we have

I₂= P/V

I₂= 1420/120 =  11.83 A

the current across the   lamp will be I₃

using P=I₃V we have

I₃= P/V

I₃= 55/120 =  0.45 A

therefore the total current drawn by all appliances will be

Total current = I₁+I₂+I₃= 15.16 +11.83+ 0.45= 27.44

B.  Will this combination blow the 15-A fuse?

27.44 A > 15 A by 45% ...and this will make fuse to blow

a. to the west.
b. upward.
c. to the north.
d. to the east.
e. downward.

Answers

Answer:

a. to the west.

Explanation:

An electron in a magnetic field always experience a force that tends to change its direction of motion through the magnetic field. According to Lorentz left hand rule (which is the opposite of Lorentz right hand rule for a positive charge), the left hand is used to represent the motion of an electron in a magnetic field. Hold out the left hand with the fingers held out parallel to the palm, and the thumb held at right angle to the other fingers. If the thumb represents the motion of the electron though the field, and the other fingers represent the direction of the field, then the palm will push in the direction of the force on the particle.

In this case, if we point the thumb (which shows the direction we shot the electron) to the south (towards your body), with the palm (shows the direction of the force) facing up to the roof, then the fingers (the direction of the field) will point west.

Reducing the diameter of the loop

Answers

Answer:

changing the magnetic field more rapidly

Explanation:

According to Faraday's law, whenever there is a change in the magnetic lines of force, it leads the production of induced emf. The magnitude of induced emf is proportional to to the rate of change of flux.

Hence if the magnetic field inside a loop of wire is changed rapidly, the magnitude of induced emf increases in accordance with Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction stated above when the magnetic field is changed more rapidly, hence the answer.

A series LR circuit contains an emf source of 19 V having no internal resistance, a resistor, a 22 H inductor having no appreciable resistance, and a switch. If the emf across the inductor is 80% of its maximum value 4 s after the switch is closed, what is the resistance of the resistor

Answers

Answer: R = 394.36ohm

Explanation: In a LR circuit, voltage for a resistor in function of time is given by:

[tex]V(t) = \epsilon. e^{-t.\frac{L}{R} }[/tex]

ε is emf

L is indutance of inductor

R is resistance of resistor

After 4s, emf = 0.8*19, so:

[tex]0.8*19 = 19. e^{-4.\frac{22}{R} }[/tex]

[tex]0.8 = e^{-\frac{88}{R} }[/tex]

[tex]ln(0.8) = ln(e^{-\frac{88}{R} })[/tex]

[tex]ln(0.8) = -\frac{88}{R}[/tex]

[tex]R = -\frac{88}{ln(0.8)}[/tex]

R = 394.36

In this LR circuit, the resistance of the resistor is 394.36ohms.

Unpolarized light is passed through three successive Polaroid filters, each with its transmission axis at 45.0° to the preceding filter. What percentage of light gets through?

Answers

Answer:

The percentage is  [tex]k = 12.5 \%[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  axis is is  at  [tex]\theta = 45 ^o[/tex]

Generally the of intensity light emerging from the first polarizer is mathematically represented as

                [tex]I_{1} = \frac{I_o}{ 2}[/tex]

Where  [tex]I_o[/tex] is the intensity of unpolarized light

       Now the light emerging from the second polarizer is mathematically represented as

         [tex]I_2 = I_ 1 * cos ^2(\theta )[/tex]

         [tex]I_2 = \frac{I_o}{2} * cos ^2(45 )[/tex]

        [tex]I_2 = \frac{I_o}{2} * \frac{1}{2} = \frac{I_o}{4}[/tex]

  Now the light emerging from the third  polarizer is mathematically represented as      

       [tex]I_3 = I_ 2 * cos ^2(\theta )[/tex]

       [tex]I_3 = \frac{I_o}{4} * cos ^2(45 )[/tex]

      [tex]I_3 = \frac{I_o}{8}[/tex]

Now the percentage of the intensity of light that emerged with respect to the intensity of  the unpolarized light is

      [tex]k = \frac{\frac{I_o}{8} }{I_o } * 100[/tex]

     [tex]k = 12.5 \%[/tex]

       

The percentage of light that gets through the three successive Polaroid filters is; 12.5%

We are given;

Angle of transmission axis; θ = 45°

Formula for intensity of light from first polarizer is;

I₁ = ¹/₂I₀

Formula for intensity of light from second polarizer is;

I₂ = I₁cos²θ

Formula for intensity of light from third polarizer is;

I₃ = I₂cos²(90 - θ)

Combining the 3 equations;

Put ¹/₂I₀ for I₁ in second formula to get;

I₂ = ¹/₂I₀cos²θ

Put ¹/₂I₀cos²θ for I₂ in third formula to get;

I₃ = ¹/₂I₀cos²θ*cos²(90 - θ)

Plugging in 45° for θ gives;

I₃ = ¹/₂I₀cos²45*cos²(90 - 45)

⇒ I₃ = ¹/₂I₀cos²45*cos²45

⇒ I₃ = ¹/₂I₀cos⁴45

Now, cos 45 in surd form is 1/√2. Thus;

I₃ = ¹/₂I₀(1/√2)⁴

I₃ = ¹/₂I₀(¹/₄)

I₃ = ¹/₈I₀

I₃/I₀ = ¹/₈

I₃/I₀ = 0.125

In percentage form, we have;

I₃/I₀ = 12.5%

Violet light of wavelength 400 nm ejects electrons with a maximum kinetic energy of 0.860 eV from sodium metal. What is the binding energy of electrons to sodium metal?

Answers

Answer:

Binding Energy = 2.24 eV

Explanation:

First, we need to find the energy of the photon of light:

E = hc/λ

where,

E = Energy of Photon = ?

h = Plank's Constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

λ = wavelength of light = 400 nm = 4 x 10⁻⁷ m

Therefore,

E = (6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(4 x 10⁻⁷ m)

E = (4.97 x 10⁻¹⁹ J)(1 eV/1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J)

E = 3.1 eV

Now, from Einstein's Photoelectric Equation:

E = Binding Energy + Kinetic Energy

Binding Energy = E - Kinetic Energy

Binding Energy = 3.1 eV - 0.86 eV

Binding Energy = 2.24 eV

What will be the nature of the image formed from both a convex lens and a concave
lens of 20 centimeter focus distance, when the object is placed at a distance of
10 centimeters?​

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Using the lens formula

1//f = 1/u+1/v

f is the focal length of the lens

u is the object distance

v is the image distance

For convex lens

The focal length of a convex lens is positive and the image distance can either be negative or positive.

Given f = 20cm and u = 10cm

1/v = 1/f - 1/u

1/v = 1/20-1/10

1/v = (1-2)/20

1/V = -1/20

v = -20/1

v = -20 cm

Since the image distance is negative, this shows that the nature of the image formed by the convex lens is a virtual image

For concave lens

The focal length of a concave lens is negative and the image distance is negative.

Given f = -20cm and u = 10cm

1/v = 1/f - 1/u

1/v = -1/20-1/10

1/v = (-1-2)/20

1/V = -3/20

v = -20/3

v = -6.67 cm

Since the image distance is negative, this shows that the nature of the image formed by the concave lens is a virtual image

A hydraulic system is being used to lift a 1500-kg car. If the large piston under the car has a diameter of 50 cm, the small piston has a diameter of 4.0 cm, and the car is lifted a distance of 1.3 m, how much work is done on the car

Answers

Answer:

W = 122.3 J

Explanation:

First, we need to find out the force applied to the smaller piston. We know that the pressure applied to smaller piston must be equally transmitted to the larger piston. Therefore,

P₁ = P₂

F₁/A₁ = F₂/A₂

F₂ = F₁(A₂/A₁)

where,

F₁ = Force of Larger Piston = Weight of car = mg = (1500 kg)(9.8 m/s²)

F₁ = 14700 N

F₂ = Force applied to smaller piston = ?

A₁ = Area of larger piston = πd₁²/4

A₂ = Area of smaller piston = πd₂²/4

Therefore,

F₂ = (14700 N)[(πd₂²/4)/(πd₁²/4)]

F₂ = (14700 N)(d₂²/d₁²)

where,

d₁ = diameter of large piston = 50 cm

d₂ = diameter of small piston = 4 cm

Therefore,

F₂ = (14700 N)[(4 cm)²/(50 cm)²]

F₂ = 94.08 N

Now, for the work done on the car:

Work Done = W = F₂ d

where,

d = displacement of car = 1.3 m

Therefore,

W = (94.08 N)(1.3 m)

W = 122.3 J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The Young modulus is  [tex]E = 1.4 *10^{10} \ N/m^2[/tex]

     The length is  [tex]L = 0.35 \ m[/tex]

      The  area is  [tex]2.9 \ cm^2 = 2.9 *10^{-4} \ m ^2[/tex]

   

Generally the force acting on the tibia is mathematically represented as

       [tex]F = \frac{E * A * \Delta L }{L}[/tex]    derived from young modulus equation

Now this force can also be mathematically represented as

      [tex]F = k * \Delta L[/tex]    

So

     [tex]k = \frac{E * A }{L}[/tex]

substituting values

     [tex]k = \frac{1.4 *10^{10} * 2.9 *10^{-4} }{ 0.35}[/tex]

     [tex]k = 11600000 N/m[/tex]

    Since the tibia support half the weight then the force experienced by the tibia is  

        [tex]F_k = \frac{750 }{2} = 375 \ N[/tex]

 From the above equation the extension (compression) is mathematically represented as

          [tex]\Delta L = \frac{ F_k * L }{ A * E }[/tex]        

substituting values

           [tex]\Delta L = 3.2323 *10^{-5} \ m[/tex]

From the above equation the maximum force is

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

A plano-convex glass lens of radius of curvature 1.4 m rests on an optically flat glass plate. The arrangement is illuminated from above with monochromatic light of 520-nm wavelength. The indexes of refraction of the lens and plate are 1.6. Determine the radii of the first and second bright fringes in the reflected light.

Answers

Given that,

Radius of curvature = 1.4 m

Wavelength = 520 nm

Refraction indexes = 1.6

We know tha,

The condition for constructive interference as,

[tex]t=(m+\dfrac{1}{2})\dfrac{\lambda}{2}[/tex]

Where, [tex]\lambda=wavelength[/tex]

We need to calculate the radius of first bright fringes

Using formula of radius

[tex]r_{1}=\sqrt{2tR}[/tex]

Put the value of t

[tex]r_{1}=\sqrt{2\times(m+\dfrac{1}{2})\dfrac{\lambda}{2}\times R}[/tex]

Put the value into the formula

[tex]r_{1}=\sqrt{2\times(0+\dfrac{1}{2})\dfrac{520\times10^{-9}}{2}\times1.4}[/tex]

[tex]r_{1}=0.603\ mm[/tex]

We need to calculate the radius of second bright fringes

Using formula of radius

[tex]r_{2}=\sqrt{2\times(m+\dfrac{1}{2})\dfrac{\lambda}{2}\times R}[/tex]

Put the value into the formula

[tex]r_{1}=\sqrt{2\times(1+\dfrac{1}{2})\dfrac{520\times10^{-9}}{2}\times1.4}[/tex]

[tex]r_{1}=1.04\ mm[/tex]

Hence, The radius of first bright fringe is 0.603 mm

The radius of second bright fringe is 1.04 mm.

A particle undergoes damped harmonic motion. The spring constant is 100 N/m, the damping constant is 8.0 x 10-3 kg.m/s, and the mass is 0.050 kg. If the particle starts at its maximum displacement, x = 1.5 m, at time t = 0. What is the amplitude of the motion at t = 5.0 s?

Answers

Answer:

The amplitude [tex]A(5) = 1 \ m[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  spring constant is  [tex]k = 100 \ N/m[/tex]

      The  damping constant is  [tex]b = 8.0 *10^{-3} \ kg \cdot m/s[/tex]

       The mass is  [tex]m = 0.050 \ kg[/tex]

       The  maximum displacement is [tex]A_o = 1.5 \ m \ at t = 0[/tex]

       The  time  considered is  t =  5.0 s

Generally the displacement(Amplitude) of damped harmonic motion is mathematically represented as

           [tex]A(t) = A_o * e ^{ - \frac{b * t}{2 * m} }[/tex]

substituting values

         [tex]A(5) = 1.5 * e ^{ - \frac{ 8.0 *10^{-3} * 5}{2 * 0.050} }[/tex]

         [tex]A(5) = 1 \ m[/tex]

       

Calculate the work performed by an ideal Carnot engine as a cold brick warms from 150 K to the temperature of the environment, which is 300 K. (Use 300 K as the temperature of the hot reservoir of the engine). The heat capacity of the brick is C

Answers

Answer

Work done is 57.9KJ

Explanation

First solve the problem according to work done due to variation in temperature

So W= intergral Cu( 1-Tu/T). at Tu and T

So Given that

C = Heat capacity of the Brick

TEPc= Cold Temperature

TEPh = Hot Temperature

W = C ( TEPh-TEP) - TEPhCln ( TEPh/TEPc)

So

W= (1)-(300-150)-300 (1) ln 2

W= -57.9KJ

How would the interference pattern change for this experiment if a. the grating was moved twice as far from the screen and b. the line density of the grating were doubled?

Answers

Answer:

a) the distance between the interference fringes is reduced by half

b) the distance between stripes is doubled

Explanation:

Interference experiments constructive interference is described by the expression

          d sin θ = m λ

let's use trigonometry to find the distance between the interference fringes

              tan θ=  y / L

dodne y is the distance from the central maximum, L the distance from the slit to the observation screen. In general these experiments are carried out at very small angles

            tan θ = sin θ / cos θ = sin θ

we substitute

             sin θ = y / L

             

            d y / L = m  λ

           y = m λ / d L

a) it asks us when the screen doubles its distance

           L ’= 2 L

subtitute in the equation

           y ’= m λ / (d 2L)

           y ’=( m λ / d L) /2

           y ’= y / 2

the distance between the interference fringes is reduced by half

b) the density of the network doubles

      if the density doubles in the same distance there are twice as many slits, so the distance between them is reduced by half

            d ’= d / 2

we substitute

          y ’= m λ (L d / 2)

          y ’= m λ / (L d) 2

          y ’= y 2

the distance between stripes is doubled

Describe how, using a positively-charged rod and two neutral metal spheres, we canmake one sphere positive without touching it to the rod. You might want to draw adiagram to help you.

Answers

Answer:

se the principle of induction.

place the two metallic spheres together,  now we bring the positively charged bar closer to the first sphere.

The charge that was induced in the sphere is distributed as infirm as possible,

At this time I separate the spheres and move the bar away, by separating the spheres the excess positive

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use that the electric charge is not created, it is not destroyed and charges of the same sign repel.

Let's use the principle of induction. We place the two metallic spheres together, one in front of the other, now we bring the positively charged bar closer to the first sphere.

Here the positive charge of the bar repels the positive charge of the sphere, but as this is mocil it moves as far away as possible, until the negative charge that remains neutralizes the positive charge of the bar.

The charge that was induced in the sphere is distributed as infirm as possible, most of it in the furthest sphere, since the Coulomb force decreases.

At this time I separate the spheres and move the bar away, by separating the spheres the excess positive charge in the last sphere cannot be neutralized, therefore this sphere remains with a positive charge.
