A large, 68.0-kg cubical block of wood with uniform density is floating in a freshwater lake with 20.0% of its volume above the surface of the water.
You want to load bricks onto the floating block and then push it horizontally through the water to an island where you are building an outdoor grill.

a. What is the volume of the block? Express your answer with the appropriate units
b. What is the maximum mass of bricks that you can place on the block without causing
it to sink below the water surface? Express your answer with the appropriate units

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) V = 0.085 m^3

b) m = 17 kg

Explanation:

1) Data given

mb = 68 kg (mass for the block)

20% of the block volume is floating

100-20= 80% of the block volume is submerged

2) Notation

mb= mass of the block

Vw= volume submerged

mw = mass water displaced

V= total volume for the block

3) Forces involved (part a)

For this case we have two forces the buoyant force (B), defined as the weight of water displaced acting upward and the weight acting downward (W)

Since we have an equilibrium system we can set the forces equal. By definition the buoyant force is given by :

B = (mass water displaced) g = (mw) g   (1)

The definition of density is :

[tex] \rho_w = \frac{m_w}{V_w} [/tex]

If we solve for mw we got [tex]m_w = \rho_w V_w [/tex]  (2)

Replacing equation (2) into equation (1) we got:

[tex] B = \rho_w V_w g [/tex] (3)

On this case Vw represent the volume of water displaced = 0.8 V

If we replace the values into equation (3) we have

0.8 ρ_w V g = mg  (4)

And solving for V we have

 V =  (mg)/(0.8 ρ_w g )

We cancel the g in the numerator and the denominator we got

V = (m)/(0.8 ρ_w)

V = 68kg /(0.8 x 1000 kg/m^3) = 0.085 m^3

4) Forces involved (part b)

For this case we have bricks above the block, and we want the maximum mass for the bricks without causing  it to sink below the water surface.

We can begin finding the weight of the water displaced when the block is just about to sink (W1)

W1 = ρ_w V g

W1 = 1000 kg/m^3 x 0.085 m^3 x 9.8 m/s^2 = 833 N

After this we can calculate the weight of water displaced before putting the bricks above (W2)

W2 = 0.8 x 833 N = 666.4 N

So the difference between W1 and W2 would represent the weight that can be added with the bricks (W3)

W3 = W1 -W2 = 833-666.4 N = 166.6 N

And finding the mass fro the definition of weight we have

m3 = (166.6 N)/(9.8 m/s^2) = 17 Kg

Answer 2

Final answer:

The volume of the block of wood and the maximum mass of bricks it can carry without sinking are determined using principles of buoyancy and uniform density.

Explanation:

(a) To determine the volume of the block of wood, we use the fact that 20.0% of its volume is above the water. Given a uniform density, this means the submerged volume is 80% of the total volume. Hence, the volume of the block is 0.8 x (68.0 kg / 920 kg/m³) = 0.472 m³.

(b) The maximum mass of bricks that can be loaded without sinking the block can be calculated using the concept of buoyancy. The buoyant force equals the weight of the water displaced, so the mass of the bricks should not exceed the mass of the water displaced by the volume of the submerged part of the block. Therefore, the maximum mass of bricks is 0.472 m³ x 1100 kg/m³ x 9.8 m/s² = 5148.64 kg.

A surface receiving sound is moved from its original position to a position three times farther away from the source of the sound. The intensity of the received sound thus becomes A. Nine times higher. B. Nine times lower. C. Three times higher. D. Three times lower.

Answers

The intensity of the sound will be B. Nine times lower

Explanation:

The intensity of a sound follows an inverse square law, which means that it is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source:

[tex]I\propto \frac{1}{r^2}[/tex]

where

I is the intensity

r is the distance from the source

In this problem, the siund has an intensity of I when the receiver is placed at a distance r from the source.

Later, the receiver is placed three times farther away, so the new distance is

r' = 3r

Therefore, the new intensity of the sound will be:

[tex]I'\propto \frac{1}{r'^2}=\frac{1}{(3r)^2}= \frac{1}{9} (\frac{1}{r^2})= \frac{1}{9}I[/tex]

Therefore, the intensity of the sound received will be nine times lower.

A 70.0-kg person throws a 0.0420-kg snowball forward with a ground speed of 35.0 m/s. A second person, with a mass of 57.0 kg, catches the snowball. Both people are on skates. The first person is initially moving forward with a speed of 2.20 m/s, and the second person is initially at rest. What are the velocities of the two people after the snowball is exchanged?

Answers

Answer:

so throwers new velocity = 2.18032m/s

so catchers new velocity = 0.02577m/s

Explanation:

Directly by conservation of momentum we can write

[tex]m_1u_1+m_2u_2= m_1v_1+m_2v_2[/tex]

let x be the thrower's new velocity

(70+0.042)×2.2 + 57×0 = 70× x +0.042×35 +57×0

x = 2.18032m/s

so the velocity of 70 kg man = 2.18032m/s

so throwers new velocity = 2.18032m/s

now again by conservation of momentum

0.042×35 = (57+0.042) ×y

y = 0.02577m/s

so catchers new velocity = 0.02577m/s

Refrigerant-134a enters the condenser of a residential heat pump at 800 kPA and 35oC at a rate of 0.018 kg/s and leaves at 800 kPa as a saturated liquid. If the compressor consumes 1.2 kW of power, determine

(a) the COP of the heat pump

(b) the rate of heat absorbtion from the outside air.

Answers

Answer:

(A) COP = 2.64

(B) rate of heat absorption= 1.9637 kW

Explanation:

mass flow rate (m) = 0.018 kg/s

work input (Win) = 1.2kW

inlet pressure (P1) = 800kPa

inlet temperature (T1) = 35 degree Celsius

h1 = 271.24 KJ/Kg

outlet pressure (P2) = 800 kPa

outlet temperature (T2) = ?

entalphy (h2) = 95.48 KJ/Kg

The entalphies are gotten from tables for refrigerant 134a at the temperatures and pressures above

(A) COP = Qh ÷ Win

     where Qh  = m(h1 -h2) from the energy balance equation

     Qh = 0.018 ( 271.24 - 95.48 ) = 3.1637 kW

     COP = 3.1637 ÷ 1.2 = 2.64

(B) rate of heat absorption = Qh - Win

    = 3.1637 - 1.2 = 1.9637 kW

Final answer:

The COP of a heat pump is calculated by using the formula COP = Q_H/W, where Q_H is the heat delivered to the house and W is the work done. Utilizing the specific enthalpies and flow rate, Q_H can be calculated. Subsequently, the rate of heat absorption from the outside can be deduced using Q_L = Q_H - W.

Explanation:

The thermal efficiency or COP (Coefficient of Performance) of the heat pump can be calculated using the equation: COP = Q_H/W where Q_H is the heat delivered to the house and W is the work input. In this case, since the fluid leaves the condenser as a saturated liquid, Q_H = m_dot*(h_1 - h_2), where h_1 and h_2 are the specific enthalpies at the state 1 and state 2 and m_dot is the mass flow rate of refrigerant.

From the saturated liquid tables, we know that the specific enthalpy h_2 = 257 kJ/kg for Refrigerant-134a at 800 kPa. Thus, Q_H can be calculated and this value (in kW) can be used to calculate COP.

Then, to answer part (b), the rate of heat absorption from the outside air can be calculated using the equation Q_L = Q_H - W. Q_L is the rate of heat absorption, Q_H is the heat delivered to the house and W is the power absorbed by the compressor.

(c) The protons, because they have the smaller momentum and, hence, the smaller de Broglie wavelength
(d) The protons, because they have the larger momentum and, hence, the smaller de Broglie wavelength
(e) Both beams experience the same amount of diffraction, because the electrons and protons have the same de Broglie wavelength.

Answers

Answer:

(b) The electrons, because they have the smaller momentum and, hence, the larger de Broglie wavelength

Explanation:

de Broglie wavelength λ = h / m v

Since both electrons and protons have same velocity , momentum mv will be less for electrons because mass of electron is less .

for electron , momentum is less so  . Therefore de Broglie wavelength λ will be more for electrons .

Amount of diffraction that is angle of diffraction is proportional to λ

Therefore electrons having greater de Broglie wavelength will show greater diffraction.

A piano tuner hears three beats per second when a tuning fork and a note are sounded together and six beats per second after the string is tightened. What should the tuner do next, tighten or loosen the string? Explain.

Answers

Final answer:

The piano tuner should loosen the piano string after hearing an increase from three beats per second to six beats per second upon tightening the string, as this indicates the string's frequency was adjusted away from the tuning fork's frequency.

Explanation:

When a piano tuner hears beats, it indicates that there is a frequency difference between a tuning fork and the piano string that is being compared. Initially, the tuner hears three beats per second, which means the frequency of the piano string is either slightly higher or lower than that of the tuning fork. After tightening the string, the number of beats per second increases to six. This indicates that the frequency of the string has moved further away from the frequency of the tuning fork.

The fact that the beats increased after tightening the string implies that the tuner has adjusted the frequency of the piano string in the wrong direction. Since the goal is to eliminate the beats entirely by matching frequencies, the tuner should loosen the string to reduce the frequency instead of tightening it further.

Stars of spectral type A and F are considered ________.
a. reasonably likely to have Earth-like planets with complex plant- and animal-like life
b. reasonably likely to have habitable planets but much less likely to have planets with complex plant- or animal-like life
c. unlikely to have planets of any kind
d. unlikely to have habitable planets

Answers

Answer:

B. the stars of spectral type A and F are considered reasonably to have habitable planets but much less likely to have planets with complex plant - or animal - like life.

Explanation:

The appropriate spectral range for habitable stars is considered to be "late F" or "G", to "mid-K" or even late "A". This corresponds to temperatures of a little more than 7,000 K down to a little less than 4,000 K (6,700 °C to 3,700 °C); the Sun, a G2 star at 5,777 K, is well within these bounds. "Middle-class" stars (late A, late F, G , mid K )of this sort have a number of characteristics considered important to planetary habitability:

• They live at least a few billion years, allowing life a chance to evolve. More luminous main-sequence stars of the "O", "B", and "A" classes usually live less than a billion years and in exceptional cases less than 10 million.

• They emit enough high-frequency ultraviolet radiation to trigger important atmospheric dynamics such as ozone formation, but not so much that ionisation destroys incipient life.

They emit sufficient radiation at wavelengths conducive to photosynthesis.

Liquid water may exist on the surface of planets orbiting them at a distance that does not induce tidal locking.

Thus , the stars of spectral type A and F are considered reasonably to have habitable planets but much less likely to have planets with complex plant - or animak - like life.

A 500 g model rocket is on a cart that is rolling to the right at a speed of 3.0 m/s. The rocket engine, when it is fired, exerts an 8.0 N thrust on the rocket. Your goal is to have the rocket pass through a small horizontal hoop that is 20 m above the launch point. At what horizontal distance left of the hoop should you launch?

Answers

Answer:

x = 7.62 m

Explanation:

First we need to calculate the weight of the rocket:

W  = mg

we will use the gravity as 9.8 m/s². We have the mass (500 g or 0.5 kg) so the weight is:  

W  = 0.5 * 9.8 = 4.9 N

We know that the rocket exerts a force of 8 N. And from that force, we also know that the Weight is exerting a force of 4.9. From here, we can calculate the acceleration of the rocket:

F - W = m*a

a = F - W/m

Solving for a:

a = (8 - 4.9) / 0.5

a = 6.2 m/s²

As the rocket is accelerating in an upward direction, we can calculate the distance it reached, assuming that the innitial speed of the rocket is 0. so, using the following expression we will calculate the time which the rocket took to blast off:            

y = vo*t + 1/2 at²

y = 1/2at²

Solving for t:

t = √2y/a

t = √2 * 20 / 6.2

t = √6.45 = 2.54 s

Now that we have the time, we can calculate the horizontal distance:

x = V*t

Solving for x:

x = 3 * 2.54 = 7.62 m            

A box slides with uniform acceleration up an incline. The box has an initial speed of 9.0 m/s and rises vertically 2.60 m before coming to rest. If the angle of the incline is 30°, what is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the incline?

Answers

Answer: 0.58

Explanation:

First we need to get the acceleration of the body using equation of motion

v²=u²-2as

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is acceleration

s is the distance moved

0²=9²-2a(2.6)

-81=-5.2a

a=81/5.2

a= 15.6m/s²

Angle of inclination =30°

To get the coefficient of friction, we use the formula

Ff =nR

Ff is frictional force

n is coefficient of friction

R is normal reaction

n = Ff/R = Wsin30°/Wcos30°

n = tan30°

n = 0.58

An airplane takes hours to travel a distance of kilometers against the wind. The return trip takes hours with the wind. What is the rate of the plane in still air and what is the rate of the wind?

Answers

Answer:

Rate of plane in still air = P = W (t1 +t2)/ (t1-t2)

Rate of wind in still air = W = P (t1 - t2)/(t1 + t2)

Explanation:

Assuming speed of plane are the same on both trips

Rate (D/t1) = (P-W).... EQU 1 going from city a to b

Rate (D/t2) = (P +W)...Equ2 going back to city a

Where t1 is not equal to t2

Where D=distance between two cities

P &W are the speed of plane and wind

t1 &t2 = time taken for travel

Equ 1 & equ 2 becomes

D = ( P - W ) t1.. equ3

D = ( P + W ) t2 equa4

Equating equ 3 and 4

Pt1 - Wt1 = Pt2 +Wt2

P ( t1 - t2) = W ( t1 + t2)

Rate of plane in still air = P = W (t1 +t2)/ (t1- t2)

Rate of wind in still air = W = P (t1 - t2)/(t1 + t2)

1.67 points When comparing equal volumes of gases at the same pressure and temperature, different gases have different densities. Which property or properties of gas particles contribute to different gases having different macroscopic densities

Answers

Answer:

Molar mass due to different atomic masses

Explanation:

Two gases that have the same volume, pressure and gases have the same number of moles, as we can deduce from the ideal gas equation. So the gases will have the same number of moles of gases but they can have densities due to the fact that they have different molar masses due to the fact that they have different atomic masses. So one gas will be heavier than the other, for the same volume.

Calculate the energy that is required to change 50.0 g ice at -30.0°C to a liquid at 73.0°C. The heat of fusion = 333 J/g, the heat of vaporization = 2256 J/g, and the specific heat capacities of ice = 2.06 J/gK and liquid water = 4.184 J/gK

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Q=35011.6\ J[/tex]

Explanation:

Given:

mass of ice, [tex]m=50\ g[/tex]initial temperature of ice, [tex]T_i=-30^{\circ}C[/tex]final temperature of liquid water, [tex]T_f=73^{\circ}C[/tex]heat of fusion of ice, [tex]L=333\ J.g^{-1}[/tex]specific heat capacity of ice, [tex]c_i=2.06\ J.g^{-1}[/tex]specific heat capacity of liquid water, [tex]c_w=4.184\ J.g^{-1}.K^{-1}[/tex]

Now, total heat energy required get to the final state:

[tex]Q=m(c_i.\Delta T_i+L+c_w.\Delta T_w)[/tex]

where:

[tex]\Delta T_w=[/tex] change in temperature of water from 0 to 73 degree C

[tex]\Delta T_i=[/tex] change in temperature of ice from -30 to 0 degree C

[tex]\therefore Q=50(2.06\times 30+333+4.184\times 73)[/tex]

[tex]Q=35011.6\ J[/tex]

Answer:

The heat energy required is 350.1J

Explanation:

Given data

Mass of ice =50g---kg =50/1000= 0.05kg

Temperature of ice T1= - 30°c

Temperature of ice T2=0°c

Temperature of liquid T3=0°c

Temperature of water T4= 73°c

The heat of fusion = 333 J/g

heat of vaporization = 2256 J/g, and the specific heat capacities of ice = 2.06 J/gK

and liquid water = 4.184 J/gK

It will be a good idea to first understand the path this process will follow

Ice at - 30°c - - ice at 0°c

Ice at 0°c - - - - liquid at 0°c fusion

Liquid at 0°c -- - liquid at 73°c

First, you have to calculate the heat absorbed by ice going from -30 C to 0 C. Use the equation:

q = m c (T2-T1)

q= 0.5*2.06(0-(-30))

q= 30.9J

Then, calculate the heat required to melt that ice at 0C. Use the equation:

q = m *(heat of fusion)

q=0.5*333

q=166.5J

Then, calculate the heat required to raise the temperature of water from 0°C to 73°C. Use

q = m c (T4-T3)

q= 0.5*4.184(73-0)

q= 152.7J

Finally, we will sum up the heat required

Total heat energy required = 30.9+166.5+152.7= 350.1J

b.) What is the width of the central maximum?
(c.) Sketch the intensity distribution for the diffraction pattern observed on the viewing screen.

Answers

Answer:

a) The screen should be located at 1.08 meters

b) The width of the central maximum is 1.7 mm

c) See figure below.

Explanation:

a) This is a single slit diffraction problem, the equation that describes this kind of phenomenon is:

[tex]a\sin\theta=m\lambda [/tex] (1)

Because we’re interested in a minimum near the center of the screen, we can use the approximation [tex] \sin\theta\approx\tan\theta=\frac{y}{x} [/tex]

So equation (1) is now:

[tex]a\frac{y}{x}=m\lambda [/tex] (2)

Solving (2) for x:

[tex] x=\frac{ay}{m\lambda}=\frac{(0.75\times10^{-3})(0.85\times10^{-3})}{1(587.5\times10^{-9})}\approx1.08m [/tex]

b) As you can see on the figure below a maximum is approximately between the two adjacent minimums, because the diffraction pattern is approximately symmetric respect the center of the screen the width of the central maximum is 2*0.850mm = 1.7 mm.

During fabrication processes, polymeric materials are generally subjected to which of the following conditions? The ambient temperature. Elevated temperatures. The ambient pressure. Elevated pressures.

Answers

Answer:

- Elevated temperatures.

- Elevated pressures.

Explanation:

In the manufacture of plastic products are used:

Raw material (pellets) which are the monomers that promote the chemical reaction.

To these are added the charges, in order to reduce the cost of the final product and improve some properties. These charges can be fiberglass, paper, metal structures.

Additives are also added whose mission is to improve or achieve certain properties, such as reducing friction, reducing chemical degradation, increasing electrical conductivity, coloring the product, and all this happens in the presence of a catalyst that is responsible for initiating and accelerating the chemical reaction process.

There are different methods of production of plastics, one of the most frequent is by injection.

Injection is a process that is carried out on machines similar to extrusion machines, in which the spindle, in addition to rotating, has an axial displacement.

In the injection, once the mold is filled, it is separated from the nozzle of the machine, breaking the feed channel. After a certain time, the piece already cooled is demoulded.

High pressures and temperatures are necessary, but parts of good finish and at high production speeds are obtained

The correct answer is: Elevated temperatures.

During fabrication processes, polymeric materials are often subjected to elevated temperatures. This is because many polymers are thermoplastic, meaning they soften and can be reshaped when heated. The elevated temperatures allow the polymer chains to move more freely, enabling the material to be molded, extruded, or otherwise formed into the desired shape or structure.

While ambient temperature and pressure can also affect polymeric materials, the key condition for shaping and fabricating these materials is typically elevated temperature. Ambient temperature is usually not sufficient to induce the necessary molecular mobility for fabrication. Ambient pressure is generally constant and does not play a significant role in the fabrication process unless specific pressure conditions are required for certain molding techniques, such as injection molding or compression molding, where controlled pressure is applied to ensure the polymer fills the mold properly.

D) conduction carries heat downward toward the fire fighter and thealuminum tent conducts that heat harmlessly into the ground.

Answers

Answer:

option A

Explanation:

The correct answer is option A

People fighting forest fire carry emergency tent which has a shiny outer surface because the radiation of the heat which is downward toward firefighter the aluminium tents reflects the heat from the fire.

Aluminium Reflects 95 % of the infrared heat that hit the shiny surface of aluminium i.e. it is used by the firefighter to prevent from the heat radiation.

Final answer:

Emergency tents with shiny aluminum outer surfaces protect firefighters from heat primarily by reflecting infrared radiation. Convection plays a lesser role as hot air rises, and conduction is minimal. Radiative heat, the main form of heat transfer from fire, is what the tents are designed to protect against.

Explanation:

The reason emergency tents with shiny aluminum outer surfaces help firefighters when they lie under them to block heat from burning trees overhead is due to the tent's ability to reflect infrared radiation. Heat from fires is primarily transferred through radiation, particularly infrared radiation, which the shiny aluminum surface is effective at reflecting away. This reflection helps to protect the firefighter by reducing the amount of heat that reaches them. Convection plays a smaller role in transferring heat downward in this scenario, since hot air tends to rise, and conduction is negligibly slow here, especially from the fire to the tent. Therefore, the tents are designed to reflect the intense radiative heat that a fire emits, which is the main mechanism at play in this scenario for heat transfer.

0.97 * 1x10^-8 = 9.7x10^-9 cm

Now the volume:

V = 4/3π(9.7x10^-9)³

V = 3.82x10^-24 cm³

We know that 1 cm³ is 1 mL, and 1 L is 1000 mL so:

V = 3.82x10^-24 mL / 1000 = 3.82x10^-27 L

Now, using avogadro's number, we should get the total volume of all atoms of Ar so:

3.82x10^-27 * 6.02x10^23 = 2.3x10^-3 L

Finally, at STP the volume of an ideal gas is 22.4 L so:

2.3x10^-3 / 22.4 = 1.03x10^-4

With two significant figure, it would be 1.0x10^-4

On the moon the surface temperature ranges from 379 K during the day to 1.04 x 102 K at night. Convert these temperatures to the Celsius and Fahrenheit scales.

(b) 379 K in degrees Fahrenheit;
(c) 1.04 x 102 K in degrees Celsius;
(d) 1.04 x 102 K in degrees Fahrenheit.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Relation between Celsius and Kelvin is

K = C + 273

Relation between Kelvin and Fahrenheit is

[tex]\frac{K-273}{100}=\frac{F -32}{180}[/tex]

(a) 379 K

Relation between Celsius and Kelvin is

K = C + 273

So, C = K - 273 = 379 - 273 = 106

Thus, 379 K = 106°C.

(b) 379 K

Relation between Kelvin and Fahrenheit is

[tex]\frac{K-273}{100}=\frac{F -32}{180}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{379-273}{100}=\frac{F -32}{180}[/tex]

F = 222.8°F

Thus, 379 K = 222.8°F

(c) 1.04 x 10^2 K = 104 K

Relation between Celsius and Kelvin is

K = C + 273

So, C = K - 273 = 104 - 273 = -169

Thus, 104 K = - 169°C.

(d) 1.04 x 10^2 K = 104 K

Relation between Kelvin and Fahrenheit is

[tex]\frac{K-273}{100}=\frac{F -32}{180}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{104-273}{100}=\frac{F -32}{180}[/tex]

F =- 272.2°F

Thus, 104 K = - 272.2°F

Explanation:

Covalent bonding is the type of bonding found in all molecular substances much as water, carbon dioxide or methane. Unlike ionic bonding which is found in ionic substances, covalent bonding involves sharing, not transfer, of electrons between the bonding atoms to form molecules.

A space telescope travels about Earth in a circular orbit at a distance of 380 miles from Earth's surface. It makes one orbit every 95 minutes. Find its linear velocity in miles per hour. (The radius of Earth is approximately 3960 miles.) Round to the nearest tenth place.

Answers

Final answer:

The linear velocity of the space telescope is about 17,193.2 miles per hour when rounded to the nearest tenth. This is calculated using the orbit radius of 4340 miles and the orbital period of 1.5833 hours.

Explanation:

To calculate the linear velocity of a space telescope traveling around Earth, we need to use the formula v = 2πr / T, where v is the linear velocity, r is the radius of the orbit, and T is the orbital period. To find the orbit radius, we add Earth's radius and the altitude of the telescope above Earth's surface: r = 3960 miles + 380 miles = 4340 miles.

Next, we convert the orbital period from minutes to hours. There are 60 minutes in an hour, so T = 95 minutes / 60 minutes/hour = 1.5833 hours. We can then plug the radius and period into the formula to find the linear velocity: v = 2 x π x 4340 miles / 1.5833 hours = 17,193 miles/hour. When rounded to the nearest tenth, the linear velocity is approximately 17,193.2 miles per hour.

At one point in time, the price of gold was about $1400 per ounce, while that of silver was about $20 an ounce. The "ounce" in this case is the troy ounce, which is equal to 31.1035 g. (The more familiar avoirdupois ounce is equal to 28.35 g.) The density of gold is 19.3 g/cm3 and that of silver is 10.5 g/cm3.

A. If you found a spherical gold nugget worth $5 million, what would be its diameter?

ANSWER: ______________ cm

B. How much would a silver nugget of that size be worth?

ANSWER: $ ____________

Answers

Answer:

Gold nugget diameter    22,24 cm

Silver nugget price   38860  $

Explanation:  

Gold price    1400  $ /ou            1  ounce  = 31.1035 grs

so  1400 /31.1035

Gold price is 45,01   $/grs.

If a nugget worth   5000000 $  then  5000000/ 45.01

a nugget mass  :  111086,43 grs

Now gold density  is  d = 19.3 grs/cm³

And she volume is  V = 4/*π*r³

d = m/V         V = m/d           V  =   111086.43/19.3    cm³

V = 5755,77 cm³

Now V of the sphere is  V =  5755,77 = 4/3*π*r³

r³  =3*5755,77 / 4π        r³  = 1374,79

r  =  11.12 cm      2r  =  22,24  =  Φ (sphere diameter)

B)  d (silver)  =  m/V       m = d*V

V = 5755,77 cm³     The same size the same volume

m =  10,5 * 5755,77 [grs/cm³ * cm³]       m  = 60435,59 grs

Silver nugget worth  :

20  $ /ou         20/31.1035  =   0.643  $ /grs

Price   0,643 *  60435,59  =  38860  $

A spring with k = 53 N/m hangs vertically next to a ruler. The end of the spring is next to the 18 cm mark on the ruler. If a 2.4 kg mass is now attached to the end of the spring, and the mass is allowed to fall, where will the end of the spring line up with on the ruler marks when the mass is at its lowest position?

Answers

Answer:

1.07 m

Explanation:

x = Compression of the spring

k = Spring constant = 53 N/m

Initial length = 18 cm

P = Kinetic energy

K = Kinetic energy

At the lowest point of the mass the energy conservation is as follows

[tex]P_{ig}+P_{is}+K_i=P_{fg}+P_{fs}+K_f\\\Rightarrow mgx+0+0=mgx+\frac{1}{2}kx^2\\\Rightarrow x=\frac{2mg}{k}\\\Rightarrow x=\frac{2\times 2.4\times 9.81}{53}\\\Rightarrow x=0.89\ m[/tex]

At its lowest position the mark on the ruler will be

[tex]x_f=0.18+0.89\\\Rightarrow x_f=1.07\ m[/tex]

The spring line will end up at 1.07 m

Final answer:

In this scenario, when a 2.4 kg mass is attached to a spring, the spring gets displaced due to the force exerted by the mass due to gravity. The displacement can be calculated using Hooke's Law (F = kx), resulting in a mark of 62.4 cm on the ruler when the mass is at its lowest position.

Explanation:

The phenomenon described in this question is related to Hooke's Law of Physics, which states that the force required to extend or compress a spring by a distance is proportional to that distance. The force exerted by the spring is measured in Newtons (N) and is given by the equation F = kx, where k is the spring constant and x is the distance the spring is stretched or compressed.

In this case, when the 2.4 kg mass is attached to the spring, it will exert a force due to gravity which is equal to the mass times the acceleration due to gravity (g = 9.8 m/s²), therefore F = m*g = 2.4kg * 9.8m/s² = 23.52 N. The spring reacts to this force and gets displaced, which can be calculated using x = F/k = 23.52N / 53N/m = 0.444 m or 44.4 cm. Therefore, with the mass attached, the bottom of the spring would fall to 18cm + 44.4 cm = 62.4 cm on the ruler.

A physics student looks into a microscope and observes that small particles suspended in water are moving about in an irregular motion. Which of the following statements is the best explanation for this observation?
a. water molecules strike the particles giving them the same average kinetic energy as the water
b. the particles are carried by convection currents in the water
c. the small particles may be considered a fluid; and thus, move about randomly
d. the actual motion is regular, but the speeds of particles are too large to observe the regular motion
e. the particles are moving to be uniformly distributed throughout the volume of the water

Answers

Answer:

d. the actual motion is regular, but the speeds of particles are too large to observe the regular motion

Explanation:

The speeds of the particles are very large and comparatively the average  free path is very small . Therefore time taken in covering the free path ( path between two consecutive collision with medium particles ) is very small . Hence the st line  path covered by particles between two collision is less likely to be visible. Hence motion appears irregular or zig-zag.

A small car traveling with 5,000 kgm/s hits a light truck that was at rest at a red light. After the collision the small car bounces backwards with a momentum of 3,000 kgm/s. What would the momentum of the truck be after the collision?

Answers

Answer:

8000

Explanation:

cause in the problem we dont have any ext Forces we know that the momentum of system is constant.

Fext=0

P1 + P2 = P1' + P2'

P2 = 0

5000 = -3000 + P2'

P2' = 5000+3000 = 8000

A 5.0 g coin is placed 15 cm from the center of a turntable. The coin has static and kinetic coefficients of friction with the turntable surface of μs = 0.70 and μk = 0.50. The turntable very slowly speeds up.

Answers

Answer:

Angular speed will reach 6.833rad/s before the coin starts slipping

Explanation:

There is no question but I'll asume the common one: Calculate the speed of the turntable before the coin starts slipping.

With a sum of forces:

[tex]Ff = m*a[/tex]

[tex]Ff=m*V^2/R[/tex]

At this point, friction force is maximum, so:

[tex]\mu*N=m*V^2/R[/tex]

[tex]\mu*m*g=m*V^2/R[/tex]

Solving for V:

[tex]V=\sqrt{\mu*g*R}[/tex]

V=1.025 m/s

The angular speed of the turntable will be:

ω = V/R = 6.833 rad/s   This is the maximum speed it can reach before the coin starts slipping.

What condition is required for cloud formation in the atmosphere?

Answers

Answer: To form a cloud, the air that rises must cool to the point where some of the water vapor molecules "clump together" at a faster pace than they are pulled apart by their thermal energy. These molecules then condense to form the clouds and water droplets.

We can see here that Cloud formation in the atmosphere requires two main conditions: the presence of water vapor and the cooling of air.

What is atmosphere?

The atmosphere is a layer of gases that surrounds a planet or celestial body, held in place by gravity. On Earth, the atmosphere is the layer of gases that envelops the planet and sustains life. It plays a crucial role in protecting and supporting life on Earth by providing essential elements, regulating temperature, and facilitating various atmospheric processes.

Clouds play a crucial role in the Earth's climate system by reflecting sunlight back into space (resulting in cooling) and trapping heat radiated from the Earth's surface (resulting in warming).

C. 3 minutes
D. 6 minutes

Answers

Answer:

Time, t = 2 minutes

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of Duplain st. d = 300 m = 0.3 km

If keith is strolling east from Baron at an average velocity of, v = 3 km/hr

Sue is power-walking west from Burkey at an average velocity of, v' =  6 km/hr

To find,

How long will it take them to meet ?

Solution,

When both objects are travelling in opposite direction, then the total speed is given by :

V = v + v'

V = 3 km/hr + 6 km/hr

V = 9 km/hr

Let t is the time taken will it take them to meet. It can be calculated as :

[tex]t=\dfrac{d}{V}[/tex]

[tex]t=\dfrac{0.3\ km}{9\ km/hr}[/tex]

t = 0.033 hour

So, they will take 2 minutes to meet. Hence, this is the required solution.

A tennis ball bouncing on a hard surface compresses and then rebounds. The details of the rebound are specified in tennis regulations. Tennis balls, to be acceptable for tournament play, must have a mass of 57.5 g. When dropped from a height of 2.5 m onto a concrete surface, a ball must rebound to a height of 1.4 m. During impact, the ball compresses by approximately 6 mm.
How fast is the ball moving when it hits the concrete surface? (Ignore air resistance.)

Answers

The velocity of the ball is 7 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the ball is a free fall motion, so it means that the ball falls down under the effect of the force of gravity only. Therefore, it has a constant acceleration (acceleration of gravity, g), and we can use the following suvat equation:

[tex]v^2-u^2=2as[/tex]

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the displacement

For the ball in this problem, we have:

u = 0 (initial velocity, the ball is dropped from rest)

[tex]a=g=9.8 m/s^2[/tex] (acceleration of gravity)

s = 2.5 m (vertical displacement)

Solving for v, we find the velocity at which the ball hits the concrete surface:

[tex]v=\sqrt{u^2+2as}=\sqrt{0+2(9.8)(2.5)}=7 m/s[/tex]
