Answer:
1) A
2) A
3) D
Explanation:
For parallel plates,the electric field E is given by:
E = σ / ε(o), where
E = Electric Field
σ = surface charge density
E = 10^-5 / 8.85*10^-12
E= 1.13*10^6 which is approximately 1*10^6 N/C, option A
B) K has a charge of 1.6*10^-19
F= q*E= (1.13*10^6) * (1.6*10^-19)
F= 1.8*10^-13 Which is approximately 2*10^-13 N, option A
C) Potential difference ,V = Ed
d = 10 nm= 1*10^-9
V = 1.13*10^6 * 1**10^-9
V = 0.0113 v
V = 1.13×10^-2 which is approximately 1x10^-2v, option D
The answers are 1) 1×10^6 N/C, 2) 2×10^13 N, 3) 6×10^3 V, 4) Toward the inner wall.
1) The magnitude of the electric field between the membranes can be calculated using the formula for electric field strength in a parallel plate capacitor:
E = σ / ε₀ = 10^(-5) C/m^2 / (8.85 x 10^(-12) F/m)
= 1.13 x 10^6 N/C.
Therefore, the answer is (a) 1×10^6 N/C.
2) The force on a K+ ion between the cell walls can be found using the formula F = qE, where q is the charge of the K+ ion. As K+ has a +1 charge, the force will be 1.13 x 10^6 N/C × 1.6 x 10^(-19) C
= 1.80 x 10^(-13) N.
Therefore, the answer is 2×10^13 N.
3) The potential difference between the cell walls can be calculated by multiplying the electric field strength by the distance between the walls:
V = Ed = 1.13 x 10^6 N/C × 10 x 10^(-9) m
= 1.13 x 10^4 V = 11.3 kV.
Therefore, the answer is (a) 6×10^3 V.
4) The direction of the electric field between the walls is from the outer wall to the inner wall.
Therefore, the answer is (b) Toward the inner wall.
An electron moves with a speed of 8.0 × 10^{6} m/s along the +x-axis. It enters a region where there is a magnetic field of 2.5 T, directed at an angle of 60° to the +x-axis and lying in the xy-plane. What is the magnitude of the magnetic force of the electron?
Answer:
The magnitude of the magnetic force of the electron is 2.77 x 10⁻¹² N
Explanation:
Given;
speed of the electron, v = 8.0 × 10⁶ m/s
magnetic field strength, B = 2.5 T
angle of inclination of the field, θ = 60°
The magnetic force experienced by the electron in the magnetic field is given as;
F = qvBsinθ
where;
q is charge of electron = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C
B is strength of magnetic field
v is speed of the electron
Substitute the given values and solve for F
F = (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹)( 8.0 × 10⁶)(2.5)sin60
F = 2.77 x 10⁻¹² N
Thus, the magnitude of the magnetic force of the electron is 2.77 x 10⁻¹² N
The magnitude of the magnetic force on the electron is approximately 2.06 x 10^-13 N.
Explanation:In this scenario, the magnitude of the magnetic force on the electron can be calculated using the equation F = qvBsinθ, where q is the charge of the electron (+1.6 x 10-19 C), v is its velocity (8.0 x 106 m/s), B is the magnetic field (2.5 T), and θ is the angle between the velocity and the magnetic field (60°). Plugging in the values, we get:
F = (1.6 x 10-19 C)(8.0 x 106 m/s)(2.5 T)sin(60°)
Using the trigonometric identity sin(60°) = sqrt(3)/2, we can simplify the equation and calculate the magnitude of the magnetic force to be approximately 2.06 x 10-13 N.

A wheel 1.70 m in diameter lies in a vertical plane and rotates about its central axis with a constant angular acceleration of 3.60 rad/s2. The wheel starts at rest at t = 0, and the radius vector of a certain point P on the rim makes an angle of 57.3° with the horizontal at this time. At t = 2.00 s. What is the tangential speed, total acceleration, and angular position of point P.
Final answer:
To calculate the tangential speed, total acceleration, and angular position of point P on the wheel at t = 2.00 s, we can use the formulas for tangential speed, total acceleration, and angular position. By substituting the given values into these equations, we can find the required values.
Explanation:
To calculate the tangential speed of a point on the wheel, we can use the formula:
Tangential Speed = Angular Velocity x Radius
In this case, the angular velocity is given by the equation:
Angular Velocity = Initial Angular Velocity + (Angular Acceleration x Time)
Substituting the given values and solving the equations, we can find the tangential speed, which is the speed of the point P on the rim at time t = 2.00 s.
To find the total acceleration, we can use the formula:
Total Acceleration = Tangential Acceleration + Radial Acceleration
The tangential acceleration can be calculated using the equation:
Tangential Acceleration = Angular Acceleration x Radius
The radial acceleration can be calculated using the equation:
Radial Acceleration = (Angular Velocity x Angular Velocity) x Radius
By substituting the given values into these equations, we can find the total acceleration at time t = 2.00 s.
To find the angular position of point P at time t = 2.00 s, we can use the equation:
Angular Position = Initial Angular Position + (Initial Angular Velocity x Time) + (0.5 x Angular Acceleration x Time x Time)
Substituting the given values, we can find the angular position of point P at t = 2.00 s.

A helium balloon containing 5m³ of gas at a pressure of 30kPa is released into the air. Assuming that the temperature is constant calculate the volume the balloon would have when the pressure inside the balloon has fallen to 5kPa. Answer in m³.
Answer:
30 m³
Explanation:
Parameters given:
Initial volume of helium, V1 = 5 m³
Initial pressure in balloon, P1 = 30 kPa
Final pressure, P2 = 5 kPa
To find the volume of the balloon at that volume, we apply Boyle's law.
It states that at constant temperature, the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas.
Mathematically:
P = k / V
Where k = constant of proportionality
This implies that:
P * V = k
This means that if the pressure or volume of the gas changes at the same temperature, the product of the pressure and volume would be the same:
Hence:
P1 * V1 = P2 * V2
Hence, to find the final volume:
30 * 5 = 5 * V2
=> V2 = (30 * 5) / 5
V2 = 30 m³
The volume of the gas when the pressure is 5 kPa is 30 m³.

A British bicycle light company advertises flashing bicycle lights that require no batteries and produce no resistance to riding. A magnet attached to a spoke on the bicycle tire moves past a generator coil on the bicycle frame, inducing an emf that causes a light to flash. The magnet and coil never touch. Does this lighting system really produce no resistance to riding? Justify your answer.
Answer:
Lenz's law is responsible for the resistance to advance due to the change in magnetic flux
Explanation:
This system produces electricity by Faraday's law,
E = - d / dt B.A
Where the electromotive force is generated by the change of the field strength maintained due to the circular movement of the wheel.
As this field changes when Lenz's law increases or decreases, it creates a field that opposes this change, this field is applied to the bicycle and is in the opposite direction to movement, so it is an effect that creates resistance to the advance of the bike.
In summary Lenz's law is responsible for the resistance to advance due to the change in magnetic flux
Technician A says that the evacuation process will remove dirt and debris from the refrigerant system. Technician B says that the evacuation process will remove moisture and air from the refrigerant system. Who is correct?
Answer: Technician B is right.
Explanation:
Evacuation process is used in refrigeration systems to remove moisture, air and non-profit condensable gases in order to achieve maximum function of the system.
vacuum pump is used to draw the sealed AC system into a vacuum. Evacuation of a refrigerant system also helps to maintain pressure, this is so as pulling a vacuum on the system is simply removing matter (mostly air and nitrogen) from inside the system so that the pressure inside drops below atmospheric pressure.
A student waiting on a platform for an incoming train hears a train whistle blow some place down the track but she is not certain from which direction it came. If the student notices that the frequency of the train whistle slowly decreases. What can the student conclude about the speed and direction of the train blowing the whistle
Answer:
Considering the two cases of when the train is moving towards and away from the stationary observer. The observed frequency of sound waves from the train can decrease when
1) The speed of the train is slowly reducing and its direction is towards the stationary observer.
2) The speed of the train is slowly increasing and its direction is away from the observer for the sound's observed frequency to keep decreasing.
Explanation:
This phenomenon is due to Doppler's Effect.
Doppler's Effect explains how relative frequency of a sound source varies with the velocity of the source or the observer.
Generally, the mathematical expression for Doppler's Effect is given below
f' = f [(v + v₀)/(v - vₛ)]
where
f' = observed frequency
f = actual frequency
v = velocity of sound waves
v₀ = velocity of observer
vₛ = velocity of sound source
When the train is moving towards the stationary observer,
f' = observed frequency of the sound wave = f₁
f = actual frequency of the sound wave = f
v = velocity of sound waves = v
v₀ = velocity of observer = 0 m/s
vₛ = velocity of sound source = vₛ
f' = f [(v + v₀)/(v - vₛ)]
f₁ = f [(v + 0)/(v - vₛ)]
f₁ = fv/(v - vₛ) (eqn 1)
Observed frequency is obviously higher than the frequency of the train.
But if the train keeps reducing its speed (vₛ) towards from the stationary observer, the observed frequency will decrease.
When the train is moving away from the stationary observer,
f' = observed frequency of the sound wave = f₂
f = actual frequency of the sound wave = f
v = velocity of sound waves = v
v₀ = velocity of observer = 0 m/s
vₛ = velocity of sound source = - vₛ (train is moving away from the observer, hence, the negative sign)
f' = f [(v + v₀)/(v - vₛ)]
f₂ = f [(v + 0)/(v - (-vₛ)]
f₂ = fv/(v + vₛ) (eqn 2)
From the expression, it is clear that the observed frequency is smaller than the frequency of the sound waves and it keeps decreasing as the speed of the train (vₛ) increases as the train moves away from the stationary observer.
Hope this Helps!!!
Answer:
The student can conclude that the speed of the train is increasing while the direction of the train is away from her or him
Explanation:
Here we have the Doppler effect given by
For an approaching wave
[tex]F_{obs} =\left [ \frac{v}{v - v_{source}} \right ] f_{source[/tex]
For a receding wave we have
[tex]F_{obs} =\left [ \frac{v}{v + v_{source}} \right ] f_{source[/tex]
Therefore, comparing the denominators of the two equation, it is seen that the frequency heard by the observer is decreases for a receding wave.
That is the student can conclude that the train is moving away from her or him or that the speed of the train is increasing while the direction of the train is away from her or him.
Technician A says a pull to the right during braking could be caused by a defective metering valve. Technician B says a pull to the left could be caused by a defective proportioning valve. Which technician is correct
Answer:
The correct option is;
Neither A nor B
Explanation:
The common cause of a vehicle pulling to the right or to the left during braking is due to a contaminated breaking surface or a faulty caliper. Other causes include tire size variation or worn out suspension components.
Other causes include;
Leaking break fluid
Piston frozen in wheel cylinder or caliper
Adjuster of rear break
Tire fault.
As soon as it is observed that the vehicle pulls on one side when braking, the vehicle should should be taking for checks by a qualified mechanic as soon as possible.
Final answer:
Both Technician A and B are incorrect, as a pull during braking is more likely due to uneven brake pad wear, sticking calipers, or collapsed brake lines rather than a defective metering or proportioning valve.
Explanation:
The question relates to whether a pull to the right during braking could be caused by a defective metering valve, and whether a pull to the left could be caused by a defective proportioning valve. Neither of these assertions is typically accurate.
A metering valve is designed to ensure that the rear brakes engage just after the front brakes, to prevent rear wheel lockup during early brake application. A proportioning valve adjusts the pressure between the front and rear brakes to prevent the rear wheels from locking up during heavy braking. Neither valve is designed to balance the braking force from side to side.
A pull to one side during braking is more likely to be caused by uneven brake pad wear, sticking calipers, or a collapsed brake line, rather than issues with the metering or proportioning valves. Therefore, both Technician A and Technician B are incorrect regarding the cause of a pull during braking.

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt}=-0.01 V/s[/tex]
R=600 ohms
I=0.04 A
[tex]\frac{dR}{dt}=0.5ohm/s[/tex]
[tex]V=IR[/tex]
[tex]\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{\partial V}{dI}\frac{dI}{dt}+\frac{\partial V}{dR}\frac{dR}{dt}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{dV}{dt}=R\frac{dI}{dt}+I\frac{dR}{dt}[/tex]
Substitute the values

[tex]-0.01-0.04\times 0.5=600\frac{dI}{dt}[/tex]
[tex]-0.03=600\frac{dI}{dt}[/tex]

Final answer:
The student's question concerns finding the rate of change of current in a circuit as described by Ohm's law. By finding partial derivatives of the voltage with respect to current and resistance and applying the provided rates, you solve for the rate of change of current.
Explanation:
The student is asking how the current I is changing over time in a circuit with a given resistance R, current I, and rates of change dR/dt and dV/dt according to Ohm's law. To solve this, we need to find the partial derivatives of voltage V with respect to current I and resistance R, and then use the given differential equation dV dt = ∂V ∂I dI dt + ∂V ∂R dR dt.
Using Ohm's law, we can express the voltage as V = IR. The partial derivative of V with respect to I is R, and with respect to R is I. Substituting these derivatives and the given values into the differential equation, we have: -0.01 = 600 dI dt + 0.04 * 0.5. Solving for dI dt, we get the rate at which the current is changing over time, which is the answer the student is looking for.
An ordinary egg can be approximated as a 5.5-cm diameter sphere. The egg is initially at a uniform temperature of 8°C and is dropped into boiling water at 97°C. Taking the properties of the egg to be r 1020 kg/m3 and cp 3.32kJ/kg · °C, determine (a) how much heat is transferred to the egg by the time the average temperature of the egg rises to70°C and (b) the amount of entropy generation associated with this heat transfer process.
Answer:
a) [tex]Q_{in} = 13.742\,kW[/tex], b) [tex]\Delta S = 370.15\,\frac{kJ}{K}[/tex]
Explanation:
a) The heat transfered to the egg is computed by the First Law of Thermodynamics:
[tex]Q_{in} +U_{sys,1} - U_{sys,2} = 0[/tex]
[tex]Q_{in} = U_{sys,2} - U_{sys,1}[/tex]
[tex]Q_{in} = \rho_{egg}\cdot \left(\frac{4\pi}{3}\cdot r^{3}\right)\cdot c \cdot (T_{2}-T_{1})[/tex]
[tex]Q_{in} = \left(1020\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}\right)\cdot \left(\frac{4\pi}{3}\right)\cdot (0.025\,m)^{3}\cdot \left(3.32\,\frac{kJ}{kg\cdot ^{\textdegree}C} \right)\cdot (70\,^{\textdegree}C - 8\,^{\textdegree}C)[/tex]
[tex]Q_{in} = 13.742\,kW[/tex]
b) The amount of entropy generation is determined by the Second Law of Thermodynamics:
[tex]\Delta S = \frac{Q_{in}}{T_{in}}[/tex]
[tex]\Delta S = \frac{13.742\,kJ}{370.15\,K}[/tex]
[tex]\Delta S = 370.15\,\frac{kJ}{K}[/tex]
The heat transferred to the egg is approximately 18.24 kJ. The entropy generation associated with this heat transfer is about 5.68 kJ/K.
To determine how much heat is transferred to the egg, we use the following formula for heat transfer in a substance:
Q = m × cp × (T_final - T_initial)
Given data:
Initial temperature, T_initial: 8°CFinal temperature, T_final: 70°CDensity, ρ: 1020 kg/m³Specific heat, cp: 3.32 kJ/kg·°CDiameter of the egg: 5.5 cm (radius is 2.75 cm or 0.0275 m)The volume of the egg as a sphere is:
V = (4/3) × π × r³ = (4/3) × π × (0.0275)³ ≈ 8.72 × 10⁻⁵ m³
The mass of the egg is then:
m = ρ × V = 1020 kg/m³ × 8.72 × 10⁻⁵ m³ ≈ 0.0889 kg
Now, calculate the heat transferred:
Q = m × cp × (T_final - T_initial) = 0.0889 kg × 3.32 kJ/kg·°C × (70°C - 8°C) ≈ 18.24 kJ
(b) Calculating Entropy Generation:
Using the formula for entropy change, we have:
ΔS = m × cp × ln(T_final/T_initial)
Temperatures in Kelvin:
T_initial = 8°C + 273.15 = 281.15 KT_final = 70°C + 273.15 = 343.15 KThen:
ΔS = 0.0889 kg × 3.32 kJ/kg·°C × ln(343.15 / 281.15) ≈ 5.68 kJ/K
Hence, the amount of entropy generated during the process is approximately 5.68 kJ/K.

Consider a loop of wire whose plane is horizontal and that carries a current in the clockwise direction when viewed from above. If we were to represent the current loop as a bar magnet or magnetic dipole, in what direction would the north pole be pointing?
Answer:
Downwards into the plane
Explanation:
Solution:-
- This is a conceptual application of hand rule. We will place our palm fingers open vertical to a plane surface. Then curl our fingers in and naturally point the thumb.
- The direction of curl of fingers denotes the direction of of current flow in the coil. Which in our case is "clockwise direction". We will orient/invert our right hand palm in such a way that we curl our fingers in clockwise fashion. Then stick the thumb out to give us the direction of magnetic field or North pole end. In our case the the thumb points downwards into the plane denoting that the magnetic field within the loop is also acting downwards into the plane.
- The bar magnet would be placed in such a way that North pole is pointing downward into the plane in the direction of magnetic field and end up at south pole pointing up out of the plane.
What percentage of the intensity gets through both polarizers?
Answer:
if the two polarizers have the same direction the transmitted light is 50% of the incident and if the two polarizers are at 90º the transmitted light is zero
Explanation:
The incident light is generally random, that is, it does not have a polarization plane, when the first polarized stops by half, this already polarized light arrives at the second polarizer and the causticity passes
I = I₀ cos² θ
therefore if the two polarizers have the same direction the transmitted light is 50% of the incident and if the two polarizers are at 90º the transmitted light is zero
A source of emf is connected by wires to a resistor, and electrons flow in the circuit. The wire diameter is the same throughout the circuit. Compared to the drift speed of the electrons before entering the source of emf, the drift speed of the electrons after leaving the source of emf is __________.A. faster. B. slower. C. the same. D. either A or B depending on circumstances. E. any of A, B, or C depending on circumstances.
Answer:
C. the same.
Explanation:
The drift speed of electrons in a circuit is the same all through the circuit.
The drift speed of the electrons remains the same before and after they pass through the source of emf because the current is constant throughout the circuit assuming a steady state situation. The emf source does not affect the drift speed despite functioning like a pump that maintains the potential difference.
Explanation:The drift speed of the electrons after leaving the source of emf is the same as before entering it. This is so because, in a steady-state situation where the current is constant throughout a circuit, the rate at which electrons enter any given section of the circuit must equal the rate at which they exit. The drift speed is the average speed of the electrons as they move through the conductor, and it remains constant throughout the entirety of the circuit assuming the diameter of the wire is consistent.
It's important to understand that the emf source acts like a pump, helping move the electrons through the circuit and maintaining a potential difference. However, this doesn't result in an increase in the electron drift speed, as the overall velocity of the electron stays steady. Even in the presence of an electric field, the phenomenon known as drift velocity remains unaffected due to the near-random movements of the free electrons caused by their collisions with atoms and other free electrons.

A toy cannon uses a spring to project a 5.24-g soft rubber ball. The spring is originally compressed by 5.01 cm and has a force constant of 8.08 N/m. When the cannon is fired, the ball moves 15.8 cm through the horizontal barrel of the cannon, and the barrel exerts a constant friction force of 0.031 0 N on the ball.With what speed does the projectile leave the barrel of the cannon?
Answer:
Speed will be equal to 1.40 m/sec
Explanation:
Mass of the rubber ball m = 5.24 kg = 0.00524 kg
Spring is compressed by 5.01 cm
So x = 5.01 cm = 0.0501 m
Spring constant k = 8.08 N/m
Frictional force f = 0.031 N
Distance moved by ball d = 15.8 cm = 0.158 m
Energy gained by spring
[tex]KE=\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 8.08\times 0.0501^2=0.0101J[/tex]
Energy lost due to friction
[tex]W=Fd=0.031\times 0.158=0.0048J[/tex]
So remained energy to move the ball = 0.0101 - 0.0048 = 0.0052 J
This energy will be kinetic energy
[tex]\frac{1}{2}mv^2=0.0052[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{2}\times 0.00524\times v^2=0.0052[/tex]
v = 1.40 m/sec
The toy cannon's projectile leaves the barrel at approximately 1.42 m/s.
To find the speed at which the 5.24-g soft rubber ball leaves the barrel of the toy cannon, we follow these steps:
1.) Determine the Potential Energy in the Compressed Spring:
The potential energy stored in the spring when it is compressed can be calculated using the formula:
Potential Energy = (1/2) * k * x²where
k is the spring constant (8.08 N/m) and x is the compression distance (5.01 cm = 0.0501 m). Potential Energy = (1/2) * 8.08 N/m * (0.0501 m)²
Potential Energy = 0.01017504 J
2.) Calculate the Work Done by Friction:
Friction force is constant at 0.0310 N over a distance of 15.8 cm (0.158 m):
Work = Friction Force * DistanceWork = 0.0310 N * 0.158 mWork = 0.004898 J3.) Find the Net Energy Available:
Net Energy = Potential Energy - Work done by friction:Net Energy = 0.01017504 J - 0.004898 JNet Energy = 0.00527704 J4.) Calculate the Speed of the Ball:
Using the energy conservation principle where Net Energy is converted into kinetic energy:
Kinetic Energy = (1/2) * m * v²The ball's mass (m) = 5.24 g = 0.00524 kg.Solving for velocity (v):

what is the difference between condensation and conduction
Answer:
Convection is the heat transfer due to the bulk movement of molecules within fluids such as gases and liquids, including molten rock. Condensation is the process by which water vapor in the air is changed into liquid water. Condensation is crucial to the water cycle because it is responsible for the formation of clouds. These clouds may produce precipitation, which is the primary route for water to return to the Earth's surface within the water cycle.
Explanation:
Their a difference....... A huge One
Condensation is the transition from gas to liquid, whereas conduction is a form of heat transfer through direct contact between objects.
The difference between condensation and conduction lies in their definition and the processes they describe. Condensation is a phase change in which a substance transitions from a gaseous state to a liquid state, often as a result of cooling. It is not directly related to heat transfer but is a thermodynamic process. On the other hand, conduction is a mode of heat transfer where thermal energy is transmitted through stationary matter due to physical contact, as when heat from an electric burner moves to the bottom of a pan.
Examples of conduction include the warming of a glass when holding it in a warm hand or the transfer of heat from a stove's burner to a pan. Convection is another mode of heat transfer involving the movement of fluids, which plays an important role in weather systems and heating systems. In contrast, conduction relies on direct contact between objects for heat to be transferred.

Suppose that a comet has a very eccentric orbit that brings it quite close to the Sun at closest approach (perihelion) and beyond Mars when furthest from the Sun (aphelion), but with an average distance (semi-major axis) of 1 AU. How long will it take to complete an orbit and where will it spend most of its time
Answer:
16.63min
Explanation:
The question is about the period of the comet in its orbit.
To find the period you can use one of the Kepler's law:
[tex]T^2=\frac{4\pi}{GM}r^3[/tex]
T: period
G: Cavendish constant = 6.67*10^-11 Nm^2 kg^2
r: average distance = 1UA = 1.5*10^11m
M: mass of the sun = 1.99*10^30 kg
By replacing you obtain:
[tex]T=\sqrt{\frac{4\pi}{GM}r^3}=\sqrt{\frac{4\pi^2}{(6.67*10^{-11}Nm^2/kg^2)(1.99*10^{30}kg)}(1.496*10^8m)^3}\\\\T=997.9s\approx16.63min[/tex]
the comet takes around 16.63min
The speed of sound in air is 320 ms-1 and in water it is 1600 ms-1. It takes 2.5 s for sound to reach a certain distance from the source placed in air. a. Find the distance. b. How much time will it take for sound to travel the same distance when the source is in water?
Answer:
Distance covered by the sound in air is 800 meter and the time taken by the sound in water for the same distance is 0.5 seconds.
Explanation:
Given:
Speed of sound in air = 320 m/s
Speed of sound in water = 1600 m/s
Time taken to reach certain distance in air = 2.5 sec
a.
We have to find the distance traveled by sound in air.
Distance = Product of speed and time.
⇒ [tex]Distance = Speed\times time\ taken[/tex]
⇒ [tex]Distance = 320\times 2.5[/tex]
⇒ [tex]Distance = 800[/tex] meters.
b.
Now we have to find how much time the sound will take to travel in water.
⇒ Time = Ratio of distance and speed
⇒ [tex]Time =\frac{distance}{speed}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]Time =\frac{800}{1600}[/tex] ...distance = 800 m and speed = 1600 m/s
⇒ [tex]Time =\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]Time =0.5[/tex] seconds.
Distance covered by the sound in air is 800 meter and the time taken by the sound in water for the same distance is 0.5 seconds.
Describe how the properties of water contribute to two of the following. Transpiration thermoregulation in endotherms plasma membrane structure
Answer:
Explanation:
The contributions of water properties in Thermoregulation in endotherms and in the plasma membrane structure.
A) Thermoregulation in endotherms: Water contributes to thermoregulation by its property of High specific heat. Water's high specific heat acts as a heat buffer, it is much harder to cool down/heat up, therefore, it will make warmer than the cold environment around it or colder than the hot environment around it. Thermoregulation works in humansas well. Recall Homeostasis which is the body's way of regulating our temperature.
B) Plasma membrane structure:
The property of water, polarity, contributes to the plasma membrane because it creates the arrangement of phospholipids making it a semi-permeable membrane.
Recall that the Plasma Membrane has a hydrophilic end on the outside that is charged and likes water and a hydrophobic end on the inside that has no charge and doesn't like water.
The membrane that separates the interior of the cell from the external environment is known as the plasma membrane, sometimes known as the cell membrane, and it is present in all cells. A cell wall is affixed to the plasma membrane on the exterior of bacterial and plant cells.
What is transpiration?Like all other living things, plants need an excretory system to remove extra water from their bodies. Transpiration is the term for this process of removing extra water from the body of the plant. Typically, it is the evaporation of water from the leaf surface.
Now, according to the question :
(A) Thermoregulation in endotherms :
Water helps regulate body temperature since it has a high specific heat. Due to its high specific heat, which acts as a heat buffer, water will either make an area warmer than the surrounding cold environment or colder than the surrounding hot environment. Humans are capable of thermoregulation as well. Remember that the body uses homeostasis to control our body temperature.
(B) Plasma membrane structure:
Because it forms the arrangement of phospholipids that makes the plasma membrane a semi-permeable membrane, water's polarity contributes to the plasma membrane.
Remember that the Plasma Membrane has an exterior hydrophilic end that is charged and prefers water, and an interior hydrophobic end that is uncharged and dislikes water.

The decibel scale is a logarithmic scale for measuring the sound intensity level. Because the decibel scale is logarithmic, it changes by an additive constant when the intensity as measured in W/m2 changes by a multiplicative factor. The number of decibels increases by 10 for a factor of 10 increase in intensity. The general formula for the sound intensity level, in decibels, corresponding to intensity I is
β=10log(II0)dB,
where I0 is a reference intensity. For sound waves, I0 is taken to be 10−12W/m2. Note that log refers to the logarithm to the base 10.
Part A) What is the sound intensity level β, in decibels, of a sound wave whose intensity is 10 times the reference intensity (i.e., I=10I0)?
Part B) What is the sound intensity level β, in decibels, of a sound wave whose intensity is 100 times the reference intensity (i.e. I=100I0)?
Express the sound intensity numerically to the nearest integer.
β = dB
One often needs to compute the change in decibels corresponding to a change in the physical intensity measured in units of power per unit area. Take m to be the factor of increase of the physical intensity (i.e., I=mI0).
Part C) Calculate the change in decibels ( Δβ2, Δβ4, and Δβ8) corresponding to m=2, m=4, and m=8.
Give your answers, separated by commas, to the nearest integer--this will give an accuracy of 20%, which is good enough for sound.
Answer:
a) 10 dB, b) 20dB, c) 10², 10⁴, 10⁸
Explanation:
The logarithmic scale has a great advantage when measuring magnitudes of a large number of scales, since it converts these values to linear, allowing easier viewing.
Part A
Let's look for decibels for an intensity I = 10 Io
We calculate
β = 10 log (10Io / Io)
β = 10 dB
Part b
Let's find the intensity for I = 100 Io
We calculate
β = 10 log (100Io / Io)
β = 10 log 100
β = 10 2
β = 20 db
Part c
Δβ2 corresponds to an intensity change of 10² Io, therefore it corresponds to an intensity increase of 10²
Δβ4 corresponds to a change in intensity of 10⁴Io
Δβ8 is an intensity change of 10⁸ Io
The sound intensity level in decibels can be calculated using the formula β = 10log(I/I_0). For a sound wave with intensity 10 times the reference intensity, the sound intensity level is 10 dB. For a sound wave with intensity 100 times the reference intensity, the sound intensity level is 20 dB.
Explanation:Part A: To find the sound intensity level when the intensity is 10 times the reference intensity, we use the formula β = 10log(I/I_0). Plugging in the values, β = 10log(10I_0/I_0) = 10log(10) = 10 x 1 = 10 dB.
Part B: Similarly, when the intensity is 100 times the reference intensity, we get β = 10log(100I_0/I_0) = 10log(100) = 10 x 2 = 20 dB.
Part C: To calculate the change in decibels for different intensities (m), we use the formula Δβ = 10log(m). For m = 2, Δβ2 = 10log(2) = 10 x 0.3 = 3 dB. For m = 4, Δβ4 = 10log(4) = 10 x 0.6 = 6 dB. And for m = 8, Δβ8 = 10log(8) = 10 x 0.9 = 9 dB.
