The only one that isn't is the one in the middle:  ft/s
Answer 2

km/hr2 ,m/s/s and miles/hr/min are appropriate units of the acceleration from all the given options.

What is acceleration?

The rate of change of the velocity with respect to time is known as the acceleration of the object. Generally, the unit of acceleration is considered as meter/seconds².

Newton's three equations of motion are only applicable for the constant acceleration, the slope of the velocity time graph represents the acceleration of any object.

As we know the rate of change of velocity is known as acceleration

acceleration =change in velocity/change in time

In the acceleration unit, we divide the velocity and time components by the units of meters per second (m/s) and seconds (s) to compute acceleration. In addition, multiplying a distance by time twice equals multiplying a distance by time squared. The meter per second squared, or (m/s2), is the SI unit of acceleration as a result.

Thus, Out of all the alternatives provided, km/hr2, m/s/s, and miles/hr/min are valid units of acceleration.

If a muon is traveling at 70% of the speed of light, how long does it take to decay in the observer's rest frame (i.e., what is the observed lifetime τμ of the muon)? express your answer in microseconds to two significant figures.

Answers

The muon lifetime in the muon reference frame is
[tex]\tau_0 = 2.2 \mu s[/tex]

In the observer's rest frame, the muon lifetime is instead given by
[tex]\tau = \gamma \tau_0[/tex]
where
[tex]\gamma = \frac{1}{ \sqrt{1- \frac{v^2}{c^2} } } [/tex] is the relativistic factor, with v being the muon speed and c the speed of light.

Since the muon is traveling at 70 % of the speed of light, 
[tex]v=0.70 c[/tex]
and the relativistic factor is

A ball is thrown vertically upward with a speed of 1.53 m/s from a point 4.21 m above the ground. calculate the time in which the ball will reach the ground.

Answers

The ball moves by uniformly accelerated motion, and its vertical position at time t is described by the following law
[tex]y(t) = h+v_0t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2 [/tex]
where
[tex]h=4.21 m[/tex] is the initial height from which the ball starts its motion
[tex]v_0=1.53 m/s[/tex] is the initial velocity of the ball
[tex]g=9.81 m/s^2[/tex] is the gravitational acceleration

The time in which the ball reaches the ground is the time t at which the vertical position y(t) becomes zero:
[tex]0= h + v_0 t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2[/tex]
Which means
[tex]0=4.21 + 1.53 t - 4.9 t^2 [/tex]

whose solutions are:
[tex]t=-0.78 s[/tex]
[tex]t=1.10 s[/tex]
Neglecting the negative solution (since it has no physical meaning), we can say that the ball reaches the ground after 1.10 s.

The time in which the ball will reach the ground is about 1.10 s

Further explanation

Acceleration is rate of change of velocity.

[tex]\large {\boxed {a = \frac{v - u}{t} } }[/tex]

[tex]\large {\boxed {d = \frac{v + u}{2}~t } }[/tex]

a = acceleration ( m/s² )

v = final velocity ( m/s )

u = initial velocity ( m/s )

t = time taken ( s )

d = distance ( m )

Let us now tackle the problem !

This problem is about Kinematics.

We will solve it in the following way

Given:

initial speed = u = 1.53 m/s

initial height = H = 4.21 m

Unknown:

time taken = t = ?

Solution:

[tex]H = ut - \frac{1}{2}gt^2[/tex]

[tex]-4.21 = 1.53t - \frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^2[/tex]

[tex]-4.21 = 1.53t - 4.9t^2[/tex]

[tex]4.9t^2 - 1.53t - 4.21 = 0[/tex]

We will solve the above equation using the following quadratic function formula:

[tex]t = \frac{1.53 + \sqrt{1.53^2 - 4(4.9)(-4.21)}}{2(4.9)}[/tex]

[tex]t \approx 1.10 ~ s[/tex]

Two moles of an ideal gas are compressed in a cylinder at a constant temperature of 80.0 ∘c until the original pressure has tripled. calculate the amount of work done by gas.

Answers

The work done by a gas during an isothermal process is given by:
[tex]W=nRT ln \frac{V_f}{V_i} [/tex] (1)
where
n is the number of moles of the gas
R is the gas constant
T is the absolute temperature of the gas
[tex] \frac{V_f}{V_i} [/tex] is the ratio between the final volume and the initial volume of the gas

We need to calculate this ratio, and we can do it by using the gas pressure. In fact, for an isothermal process, Boyle's law states that the product between pressure and volume of the gas is constant:
[tex] pV=k [/tex]
which can be rewritten as
[tex] p_i V_i= p_f V_f[/tex]
which is equivalent to
[tex] \frac{V_f}{V_i}= \frac{p_i}{p_f} [/tex]
The problem says that the pressure of the gas is tripled, therefore the ratio between final and initial volume is:
[tex] \frac{V_f}{V_i} = \frac{p_i}{3 p_i} = \frac{1}{3} [/tex]

Now we can use eq.(1) to calculate the work done by the gas. The absolute temperature is
[tex]T=80.0^{\circ}C+273 = 353 K[/tex]
The number of moles is n=2, therefore the work done is
[tex]W=nRT ln \frac{V_f}{V_i}=(2 mol)(8.31 J/mol K) (353 K) \ln \frac{1}{3}= -6445 J[/tex]
And the work is negative, because it is done by the environment on the gas (the gas is compressed)

Final answer:

The work done by two moles of an ideal gas compressed isothermally in a cylinder can be calculated using the formula W = nRT ln(V1/V2). The work is generally negative as the gas does work on its surroundings during the process.

Explanation:

When an ideal gas is compressed in a cylinder, the work done by the gas can be calculated using the principles of thermodynamics. Specifically, if the gas is compressed isothermally (at a constant temperature), the work done by the gas during this process can be calculated using the formula W = nRT ln(V1/V2), where n represents the number of moles of gas, R is the universal gas constant, T is the temperature in Kelvin, and V1 and V2 are the initial and final volumes of the gas respectively.

In the scenario presented, we have 2 moles of gas, a temperature of 80.0°C, and the original pressure being tripled during the compression. This tripling of pressure corresponds to reduction in volume to one third. From these values, we can calculate the work done by the gas during compression. However, we do not have specific information about the volumes or pressures, so we cannot calculate a numerical value. In general, though, we can say the work done by the gas during an isothermal process is negative, as it is compressed and does work on its surroundings.

When violet light of wavelength 415 nm falls on a single slit, it creates a central diffraction peak that is 9.90 cm wide on a screen that is 2.53 m away. how wide is the slit?

Answers

Final answer:

The width of the slit when violet light of 415 nm wavelength creates a central diffraction peak of 9.90 cm on a screen 2.53 m away is approximately 10.6 μm.

Explanation:

The wavelength of violet light is given as 415 nm, and it produces a diffraction pattern with a central peak width of 9.90 cm on a screen 2.53 meters away. We can find the width of the slit using the formula for single-slit diffraction:

Δy = λL/a

where Δy is the width of the central peak, λ is the wavelength, L is the distance to the screen, and a is the width of the slit. Rearranging the formula to solve for a, we have:

a = λL/Δy

Substituting the provided values:

a = (415 x 10^-9 m)(2.53 m) / (9.90 x 10^-2 m)

After calculating, we find that the width of the slit (a) is approximately:

a ≈ 1.06 x 10^-5 m or 10.6 μm

Using the single-slit diffraction formula and given values, we calculate the width of the slit to be 21.1 μm.

To solve this problem, we'll use the formula for the width of the central peak in a single-slit diffraction pattern:

w = 2Lλ / a

Where:

w = width of the central peak (9.90 cm = 0.099 m)L = distance from the slit to the screen (2.53 m)λ = wavelength of violet light (415 nm = 415 x 10⁻⁹ m)a = width of the slit (what we need to find)

Rearranging the formula to solve for a:

a = 2Lλ / w

Substituting the given values:

a = (2 * 2.53 m * 415 x 10⁻⁹ m) / 0.099 m

Now, calculate:

a = 2.11 x 10⁻⁵ m or 21.1 μm

Therefore, the width of the slit is 21.1 μm.

A crying baby emits sound with an intensity of 8.0 × 10-8 w/m2. calculate a reasonable estimate for the intensity level from a set of quintuplets (five babies), all crying simultaneously at the same place? the lowest detectable intensity is 1.0 × 10-12 w/m2.

Answers

Sound intensity of 1 baby, I = 8*10^-8 W/m^2

The sound heard should be higher by:

10*log (n) where for 5 babies, n = 5. Then
10*log (n) = 10*log (5) ≈ 7 dB

Also give is the reference sound, Io = 1.0*10^-12 W/m^2

Therefore,
Sound intensity, L1 = 10*log (I/I1) = 10*log [(8*10^-8)/(1*10^-12)] ≈ 49 dB
Therefore, total intensity for the five babies is:

Total intensity = 49+7 = 56 dB

The intensity level from a set of quintuplets (five babies) : 56 dB

Further explanation

Wave intensity is the power of a wave that is moved through a plane of one unit that is perpendicular to the direction of the wave

Can be formulated

[tex]\rm I=\dfrac{P}{A}[/tex]

I = intensity, W m⁻²

P = power, watt

A = area, m²

The farther the distance from the sound source, the smaller the intensity

[tex]\rm \dfrac{I_2}{I_1}=\dfrac{(r_1)^2}{(r_2)^2}[/tex]

So the intensity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source

[tex]\rm I\approx \dfrac{1}{r^2}[/tex]

Intensity level (LI) can be formulated

[tex]\rm LI=10\:log\dfrac{I}{I_o}[/tex]

Io = 10⁻¹²

For the level of intensity of several sound sources as many as n pieces can be formulated:

LIn = LI1 + 10 log n

The intensity level of 1 baby is

[tex]\rm LI=10\:log\dfrac{8.10^{-8}}{10^{-12}}[/tex]

LI = 10 log 8.10⁴

LI = 49

Even at such low fractions of the speed of light these stars are moving quite quickly (thousands of kilometers a second) compared to the standard velocity dispersion in the milky way galaxy (which is around 300km/s). suppose the star was actually moving toward the earth at a more reasonable 300km/s. what wavelength λ would the 656.46-nm line move to? use 299,792km/s for the speed of light. express your answer in nanometers to five significant figures.

Answers

According to Doppler Effect, an observer at rest will perceive a shift in the wavelength or frequency of the radiation emitted by a source in movement.This shift is given by the formula:
[tex] \frac{ \lambda - \lambda_{0} }{ \lambda_{0} } = \frac{-v}{c} [/tex]

where:
[tex] \lambda[/tex] = observed wavelength
[tex] \lambda_{0}[/tex] = wavelength at rest
v = speed of source (positive if towards the observer, negative if away from the observer)
c = speed of light

Therefore, we can solve for the observed wavelength:
[tex]\lambda = \lambda_{0} (\frac{-v}{c}) + \lambda_{0} \\ \lambda = \lambda_{0} (1 - \frac{v}{c})[/tex]

Substituting the given data:
[tex]\lambda = 656.46 (1 - \frac{300}{299792})[/tex]
= 655.80 nm

Hence, the observed wavelength of the line would be 655.80 nm. Note that this value is smaller than the one at rest, which means that we have a blue-shift, as expected for an approaching source.

The hydrogen line at 656.46 nm shifts to about 655.80 nm if a star is traveling 300 km/s toward Earth.

Using the Doppler Effect to Determine the Wavelength Shift

First, note the speed of light: c = 299,792 km/s.Original wavelength of the hydrogen line: λ₀ = 656.46 nm.Star's velocity towards Earth: v = -300 km/s (negative because the star is approaching).

Use the Doppler shift formula for wavelengths:

[tex]\[\lambda = \lambda_0 \sqrt{\frac{c - v}{c + v}}\][/tex]

Plugging in the values:

[tex]\[\lambda = 656.46 \, \text{nm} \sqrt{\frac{299,792 - 300}{299,792 + 300}}\][/tex]

Calculate the ratio:

Ratio = √(299,492 / 300,092) ≈ √(0.998)

Evaluate the square root:

[tex]\[\frac{299,492}{300,092} \approx 0.998\][/tex][tex]\[\sqrt{0.998} \approx 0.999\][/tex]

Compute the shifted wavelength:

[tex]\[\lambda \approx 656.46 \, \text{nm} \times 0.999\][/tex] ≈ 655.80 nm

The 656.46-nm line would shift to approximately 655.80 nm if the star were moving towards Earth at 300 km/s.

Complete question:

Suppose that you'd like to find out if a distant star is moving relative to the earth. The star is much too far away to detect any change in its brightness as it moves toward or away from the earth. Instead we can use the Doppler effect to determine its relative speed. For this problem we are going to look at the spectral lines from hydrogen, specifically the one with a wavelength of 656.46 nm. Even at such low fractions of the speed of light these stars are moving quite quickly (thousands of kilometers a second) compared to the standard velocity dispersion in the Milky Way galaxy (which is around 300 km/s). Suppose the star was actually moving toward the earth at a more reasonable 300 km/s. What wavelength I would the 656.46-nm line move to? Use 299, 792 km/s for the speed of light.

In our circuit, we have 3 resistors of [tex]10.0 \Omega[/tex] each, so the total resistance of the circuit is given by
[tex] \frac{1}{R_{eq}}= \frac{1}{10 \Omega}+ \frac{1}{10 \Omega}+ \frac{1}{10 \Omega}= \frac{3}{10 \Omega} [/tex]
which means a total resistance of
[tex]R_{Eq} = \frac{10 \Omega}{3}=3.33 \Omega [/tex]

2) Current in the circuit

The current in the circuit can be found by using Ohm's law:
[tex]I= \frac{V}{R_{Eq}} [/tex]
where V is the voltage of the battery and Req is the total resistance we found before. By using V=15 V, we find
[tex]I= \frac{15 V}{3.33 \Omega}=4.5 A [/tex]

The total resistance in the parallel circuit with three 10-ohm resistors and a 15-volt battery is approximately 3.33 ohms. The total current through the circuit is approximately 4.50 amps.

To calculate the total resistance in a parallel circuit with three resistors of 10 ohms each, we use the formula for parallel resistance:

[tex]\frac{1}{R_{\text{total}}} = \frac{1}{R_1} + \frac{1}{R_2} + \frac{1}{R_3}[/tex]

Substituting the values:

1/Rtotal = 1/10 + 1/10 + 1/10

1/Rtotal = 3/10

Therefore, Rtotal = 10/3 = 3.33 ohms

Next, we calculate the total current using Ohm's Law:

I = V/Rtotal

Given the battery voltage is 15 volts:

I = 15/3.33 ≈ 4.50 amps

The total resistance in the parallel circuit with three 10-ohm resistors and a 15-volt battery is approximately 3.33 ohms. The total current through the circuit is approximately 4.50 amps.

Calculate the magnitude of the angular momentum of the earth in a circular orbit around the sun. mastering

Answers

The angular momentum of the Earth around the Sun is given by:
[tex]L=m \omega r^2[/tex]
where 
m is the Earth's mass
[tex]\omega[/tex] is the Earth's angular velocity
r is the average distance of the Earth from the Sun

The Earth takes 365 days to make a complete revolution around the Sun, which corresponds to
[tex]t=365 d \cdot 24 \cdot 60 \cdot 60 =3.15 \cdot 10^7 s[/tex]
A complete revolution corresponds to [tex]2 \pi rad[/tex], therefore the Earth's angular velocity is
[tex]\omega = \frac{2 \pi rad}{3.15 \cdot 10^7 s}=1.99 \cdot 10^{-7} rad/s [/tex]

The average distance of Earth from the Sun is 149.6 million km:
[tex]r=149.6 Mkm = 149.6 \cdot 10^9 m[/tex]

And the Earth's mass is [tex]m=5.97 \cdot 10^{24} kg[/tex], therefore its angular momentum is
[tex]L=m \omega r^2 =(5.97 \cdot 10^{24} kg)(1.99 \cdot 10^{-7} rad/s)(149.6 \cdot 10^9 m)^2=[/tex]
[tex]=2.66 \cdot 10^{40} kg m^2/s[/tex]

If a hydrogen atom in the ground state absorbs a photon of energy 12.09 ev, to which state will the electron make a transition?

Answers

The energy levels of the hydrogen atom are given by
[tex]E_n = -13.6 \frac{1}{n^2} [eV][/tex] (1)
where n is the level number. Therefore, the ground state has energy of
[tex]E_1 = -13.6 \frac{1}{1^2} eV = -13.6 eV[/tex]

If the atom absorbs a photon of energy [tex]E=12.09 eV[/tex], the final energy of the hydrogen atom is
[tex]E_f = E_1 + E = -13.6 eV + 12.09 eV =-1.51 eV[/tex]

And we can use eq.(1) to find the corresponding level number:
[tex]n= \sqrt{ \frac{-13.6 eV}{E_f} } = \sqrt{ \frac{-13.6 eV}{-1.51 eV}}= \sqrt{9}=3 [/tex]
So, the electron made a transition to the n=3 level.

The absolute (or total) pressure at the bottom of a cylindrical container with a cross-sectional area of 47.0 cm2 and holding a fluid of density 560 kg/m3 is 115 kpa. (a) determine the depth of the fluid.

Answers

Final answer:

The fluid's depth in the cylinder can be determined using the equation for fluid pressure, h = P / (pg), and plugging in given values, resulting in an approximated depth of 20.9 meters.

Explanation:

The total absolute pressure at a point in a fluid is the sum of the atmospheric pressure and the pressure due to the fluid above the point of reference. The latter is given by the equation P = pgh, where p is the density of the fluid, g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is the height (or depth) of the fluid column above the point of reference. In this scenario, we know P (absolute pressure, 115 kPa), p (density, 560 kg/m3), and g (standard gravity, roughly 9.81 m/s2), and we want to find h.

To find h, we can rearrange our equation: h = P / (pxg) . Plugging the given values we have h=115000Pa/(560kg/m3*9.8m/s2), which gives h = 20.9 m.

This means the depth of the fluid in the cylinder is approximately 20.9 meters.

1) A substance has a half life of 20 years. what percentage would be left after 40 years?

2)After 4 half lifes of uranium, 10 grams of the uranium remains. how much uranium did you start with?

Answers

1) The half-life is the time required for a substance to reduce to half its initial value. In formulas:
[tex] \frac{m(t)}{m_0} = ( \frac{1}{2} )^{t/t_{1/2}}[/tex] (1)
where
m(t) is the amount of substance left at time t
m0 is the initial mass
[tex]t_{1/2}[/tex] is the half-life

In this problem, the half-life of the substance is 20 years:
[tex]t_{1/2} = 20 y[/tex]
therefore, the fraction of sample left after t=40 years will be
[tex] \frac{m(t)}{m_0}=( \frac{1}{2})^ \frac{40 y}{20 y} = ( \frac{1}{2})^2 = \frac{1}{4} [/tex]

So, only 1/4 of the original sample will be left, which corresponds to 25%.

2) We can use again formula (1), by re-arranging it:
[tex]m_0 = \frac{m(t)} {( \frac{1}{2} )^{ \frac{t}{t_{1/2} }}}[/tex]
If we use m(t)=10 g (mass of uranium left at time t), and [tex]t=4 t_{1/2}[/tex] (the time is equal to 4 half lifes), we get
[tex]m_0 = \frac{10 g}{ (\frac{1}{2})^4 } =16 \cdot 10 g = 160 g[/tex]
So, the initial sample of uranium was 160 g.

The pressure exerted by a phonograph needle on a record is surprisingly large. if the equivalent of 1.00 g is supported by a needle, the tip of which is a circle 0.210 mm in radius, what pressure is exerted on the record in n/m2?

Answers

Pressure, P = Force, F/ Surface Area, A

In the current scenario,
Force, F = Weight = mg = 1/1000*9.81 = 9.81*10^-3 N
Surface area, A = πr^2 = π*(0.210/1000)^2 = 1.385*10^-7 m^2

Therefore,
P = F/A = (9.81*10^-3)/(1.385*10^-7) = 70,807.71 N/m^2
Final answer:

The pressure exerted by a phonograph needle on a record, if the equivalent of 1g is supported by the needle with a radius of 0.210 mm, is approximately 7.05*10^7 Pa or N/m².

Explanation:

The pressure exerted by a phonograph needle on a record is calculated using the formula for pressure: P = F / A . To obtain the force (F), we multiply the mass of the needle (1g or 0.001 kg) by the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s²). This yields a force of 0.0098 N. The area (A) is calculated using the formula for the area of a circle, A=πr², where r is the radius of the needle tip (0.210 mm or 0.00021 m). So, the area amounts to roughly 0.000000139 m². The resulting pressure (P), when calculated comes out to be approximately 7.05*10^7 Pa or N/m².
