A uniform bar has two small balls glued to its ends. The bar is 2.10 m long and with mass 3.70 kg , while the balls each have mass 0.700 kg and can be treated as point masses.

Required:
Find the moment of inertia of this combination about an axis
a. perpendicular to the bar through its center.
b. perpendicular to the bar through one of the balls.
c. parallel to the bar through both balls.
d. parallel to the bar and 0.500 m from it.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

moment of inertia in the first case will be sum of moment of inertia of two balls + moment of inertia of bar

= 2 x .700 x (2.1 / 2 )² + 3.7 x 2.1² / 12

= 1.5435 + 1.35975

= 2.90325 kg m²

b )

moment of inertia required

= moment of inertia of bar + moment of inertia of the other ball

= 3.70 x (2.1² / 3 )  + .7 x 2.1²

= 5.439 + 3.087

= 8.526 kg m²

c )

In this case moment of inertia of the combination = 0 as distance of masses from given axis is zero .

d )

masses = 3.7 + .7 = 4.4 kg

distance from axis = .5 m  

moment of inertia about given axis

= 4.4 x .5²

= 1.1 kg m².

(4) Use the preliminary observations to answer these questions; Compared to no polarizer or analyzer in the optical path, by what percent does the light intensity decrease when (a) The polarizer is introduced into the optical path? (b) The both polarizer and analyzer are introduced into the optical path?

Answers

Answer:

a)   I = I₀/2, b)  I = I₀/2 cos² θ

Explanation:

To answer these questions, let's analyze a little the way of working of a polarized

* When a non-polarized light hits a polarizer, the electric field that is not in the direction of the polarizer is absorbed, so the transmitted light is

          i = I₀ / 2

and is polarized in the direction of the polarizer

* when a polarized light reaches the analyzer it must comply with Malus's law

          I = I₁ cos² θ

where the angle is between the polarized light and the analyzer.

With this, let's answer the questions

a) When a polarizer is placed in the non-polarized light path, half of it is absorbed and only the light that has polarization in the direction of the polarizer is transmitted with an intensity of

                  I = I₀/2

b) when a polarizer and an analyzer are fitted, the intensity of the light transmitted by the analyzer is

                I = I₀/2 cos² θ

where the final value depends on the angle between the polarizer and the analyzer.

Let's look at two extreme cases

θ = 0          I = Io / 2

θ = 90º      I = 0

A fan rotating with an initial angular velocity of 1500 rev/min is switched off. In 2.5 seconds, the angular velocity decreases to 400 rev/min. Assuming the angular acceleration is constant, answer the following questions.
How many revolutions does the blade undergo during this time?
A) 10
B) 20
C) 100
D) 125
E) 1200

Answers

Answer:

The blade undergoes 40 revolutions, so neither of the given options is correct!

Explanation:

The revolutions can be found using the following equation:

[tex]\theta_{f} = \theta_{i} + \omega_{i}*t + \frac{1}{2}\alpha*t^{2}[/tex]

Where:

α is the angular acceleration

t is the time = 2.5 s

[tex]\omega_{i}[/tex] is the initial angular velocity = 1500 rev/min                

First, we need to find the angular acceleration:

[tex] \alpha = \frac{\omega_{f} - \omega_{i}}{t} = \frac{400 rev/min*2\pi rad*1 min/60 s - 1500 rev/min *2\pi rad*1 min/60 s}{2.5 s} = -46.08 rad/s^{2} [/tex]

Now, the revolutions that the blade undergo are:

[tex]\theta_{f} - \theta_{i} = \omega_{i}*t + \frac{1}{2}\alpha*t^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\Delta \theta = 1500 rev/min *2\pi rad*1 min/60 s*2.5 s - \frac{1}{2}*(46.08 rad/s^{2})*(2.5)^{2} = 248.7 rad = 39.9 rev[/tex]        

Therefore, the blade undergoes 40 revolutions, so neither of the given options is correct!

I hope it helps you!

(Round your answer to two decimal places.) s (c) With what velocity does it strike the ground? (Round your answer to one decimal place.) m/s (d) If the stone is thrown downward with a speed of 9 m/s, how long does it take to reach the ground? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

A. Using displacement =Ut + 1/2gt²

=> 0 + 1/2 (-9.8)t²

= -4.9t²

So

h(t) = 50+ displacement

= 50 - 4.9t²

B. To reach the ground

h(t) = 0

So

50-4.9t²= 0

t = √ (50/4.9)

= 3.2s

C. Using

V = u+ gt

U= 0

V= - 9.8(3.2)

= 31.4m/s

D. If u = -9m/s

Then s = ut + 1/2gt²

5t- 1/2gt²

But distance from the ground is

=.> 50-5t- 4.8t²= 0

So t solving the quadratic equation

t= 3.58s

(a) The distance of the stone above the ground level at time t is [tex]h(t) = 50 - 4.9t^2[/tex]

(b) The time taken for the stone to strike the ground is 3.19 s.

(c) The velocity of the stone when it strikes the ground is 31.4 m/s.

(d) The time taken for the stone to reach the ground when thrown at the given speed is 2.41 s.

The given parameters;

height above the ground, h₀ = 50 m

The distance of the stone above the ground level at time t is calculated as;

[tex]h(t) = h_0 - ut - \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\h(t) = 50 - 0 -0.5\times 9.8t^2\\\\h(t) = 50 - 4.9t^2[/tex]

The time taken for the stone to strike the ground is calculated as;

[tex]t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} } \\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 50}{9.8} } \\\\t = 3.19 \ s[/tex]

The velocity of the stone when it strikes the ground is calculated as;

[tex]v =u + gt\\\\v = 0 + 3.2 \times 9.8\\\\v = 31.4 \ m/s[/tex]

The time taken for the stone to reach the ground when thrown at speed of 9 m/s is calculated as;

[tex]50 = 9t + \frac{1}{2} (9.8)t^2\\\\50 = 9t + 4.9t^2\\\\4.9t^2 + 9t - 50 = 0\\\\a = 4.9 \, \ b = 9, \ \ c = -50\\\\solve \ the \ quadratic \ equation\ using \ formula \ method\\\\t = \frac{-b \ \ + /- \ \ \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a} \\\\t = \frac{-9 \ \ + /- \ \ \sqrt{(9)^2 - 4(4.9 \times -50)} }{2(4.9)} \\\\t = 2.41 \ s \ \ or \ \ - 4.24 \ s[/tex]

A 6.7 cm diameter circular loop of wire is in a 1.27 T magnetic field. The loop is removed from the field in 0.16 ss . Assume that the loop is perpendicular to the magnetic field.

Required:
What is the average induced emf?

Answers

Answer:

The induced emf is [tex]\epsilon = 0.0280 \ V[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told

    The diameter of the loop is  [tex]d = 6.7 cm = 0.067 \ m[/tex]

    The magnetic field is  [tex]B = 1.27 \ T[/tex]

    The time taken is  [tex]dt = 0.16 \ s[/tex]

Generally the induced emf is mathematically represented as

          [tex]\epsilon = - N * \frac{\Delta \phi}{dt}[/tex]

Where  N =  1 given that it is only a circular loop

            [tex]\Delta \phi = \Delta B * A[/tex]

Where  [tex]\Delta B = B_f - B_i[/tex]

   where [tex]B_i[/tex] is  1.27 T  given that the loop of wire was initially in the magnetic field

    and  [tex]B_f[/tex] is  0 T given that the loop was removed from the magnetic field

Now the area of the of the loop is evaluated as

          [tex]A = \pi r^2[/tex]

Where r is the radius which is mathematically represented as

       [tex]r = \frac{d}{2}[/tex]

substituting values

       [tex]r = \frac{0.067}{2}[/tex]

        [tex]r = 0.0335 \ m[/tex]

So

         [tex]A = 3.142 * (0.0335)^2[/tex]

          [tex]A = 0.00353 \ m^2[/tex]

So

      [tex]\Delta \phi = (0- 127)* (0.00353)[/tex]

      [tex]\Delta \phi = -0.00448 Weber[/tex]

=>    [tex]\epsilon = - 1 * \frac{-0.00448}{0.16}[/tex]

=>   [tex]\epsilon = 0.0280 \ V[/tex]

An ac source of period T and maximum voltage V is connected to a single unknown ideal element that is either a resistor, and inductor, or a capacitor. At time t = 0 the voltage is zero. At time t = T/4 the current in the unknown element is equal to zero, and at time t = T/2 the current is I = -Imax, where Imax is the current amplitude. What is the unknown element?

Answers

Answer:

Capacitor, is the right answer.

Explanation:

The unknown element is a Capacitor.

Below is the calculation that proves that it is a capacitor.

We know that for the Capacitor

i = Imax × sin(wt+(pi/2)).

i = Imax × sin ((2 × pi/T) × (T/4) + (pi/2))

i = Imax × sin(3.142) = 0 A

at, t = T/2

wt = (2 × pi/T) × (T/2) = pi

wt + (pi/2) = pi + (pi/2) = ( 3 × pi/2) =

i = Imax × sin(3 × pi/2) = -Imax

Which is in a correct agreement with capacitor  therefore, the answer is a Capacitor.

In a photoelectric-effect experiment it is observed that no current flows unless the wavelength is less than 540 nmnm . Part A What is the work function of this material

Answers

Answer:

Φ = 36.84 × 10^(-20) J

Explanation:

In the photoelectric effect, the energy of the incoming photon is usually used in part to extract the photoelectron from the material (work function) and then the rest is converted into kinetic energy of the photoelectron which is given by the formula;

K_max = hf - Φ

where;

hf represents the energy of the incoming photon

h is the Planck's constant

f is the light frequency

Φ is the work function of the material

K_max is the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons.

From the question, we are told that no current flows unless the wavelength is less than 540 nm. This means that when the wavelength has this value, the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons is zero i.e K_max = 0. Thus the energy of the incoming photons is just enough to extract the photoelectrons from the material.

Thus,

hf - Φ = 0

hf = Φ - - - (1)

We are given the wavelength as;

λ = 540 nm = 540 × 10^(-9) m

Now, let's find the frequency of the light by using the relationship between frequency and wavelength. The equation is;

f = c/λ

Where c is speed of light = 3 × 10^(8) m/s

f = (3 × 10^(8))/(540 × 10^(-9))

f = 5.56 × 10^(14) Hz

Thus, from equation 1,we can now find the work function;

Φ = hf

h is Planck's constant and has a value of 6.626 × 10^(-34) J.s

Thus;

Φ = 6.626 × 10^(-34) × 5.56 × 10^(14)

Φ = 36.84 × 10^(-20) J

Figure (3) shows a car travelling along the route PQRST in 30 minutes. What is the average speed of the car in km/hour?

Answers

Answer:

60 km/hour.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the total distance traveled by the car. This is illustrated below:

Total distance traveled = sum of distance between PQRST

Total distance = 10 + 5 + 10 + 5

Total distance = 30 km

Next, we shall convert 30 mins to hour. This can obtained as follow:

Recall:

60 mins = 1 hour

Therefore,

30 mins = 30/60 = 0.5 hour.

Finally, we shall determine the average speed of the car as follow:

Distance = 30 km

Time = 0.5 hour

Speed =?

Speed = distance /time

Speed = 30/0.5

Speed = 60 km/hour

Therefore, the speed of the car is 60 km/hour.

(b) At what angle does the next set of bright fringes appear?

Answers

Answer:

a

   [tex]\lambda = 1.667 nm[/tex]

b

     [tex]\theta = 0.8681^o[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The distance of separation is [tex]d = 0.220 \ mm = 0.00022 \ m[/tex]

    The  is distance of the screen from the slit is  [tex]D = 2.60 \ m[/tex]

    The distance between the central bright fringe and either of the adjacent bright   [tex]y = 1.97 cm = 1.97 *10^{-2}\ m[/tex]

Generally  the condition for constructive interference is  

      [tex]d sin \tha(\theta ) = n \lambda[/tex]

From the question we are told that small-angle approximation is valid here.

So    [tex]sin (\theta ) = \theta[/tex]

=>        [tex]d \theta = n \lambda[/tex]

=>        [tex]\theta = \frac{n * \lambda }{d }[/tex]

Here n is the order of maxima and the value is  n =  1 because we are considering the central bright fringe and either of the adjacent bright fringes

Generally the distance between the central bright fringe and either of the adjacent bright  is mathematically represented as

         [tex]y = D * sin (\theta )[/tex]

From the question we are told that small-angle approximation is valid here.

So

       [tex]y = D * \theta[/tex]

=>   [tex]\theta = \frac{ y}{D}[/tex]

So

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

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

substituting values

       [tex]\lambda = \frac{0.00022 * 1.97*10^{-2} }{1 * 2.60 }[/tex]

        [tex]\lambda = 1.667 *10^{-6}[/tex]

        [tex]\lambda = 1.667 nm[/tex]

In the b part of the question we are considering the next set of bright fringe so  n=  2

    Hence

     [tex]dsin (\theta ) = n \lambda[/tex]

    [tex]\theta = sin^{-1}[\frac{ n * \lambda }{d} ][/tex]

    [tex]\theta = sin^{-1}[\frac{ 2 * 1667 *10^{-9}}{ 0.00022} ][/tex]

    [tex]\theta = 0.8681^o[/tex]

You measure the power delivered by a battery to be 4.26 W when it is connected in series with two equal resistors. How much power will the same battery deliver if the resistors are now connected in parallel across it

Answers

Answer:

The power delivered by the battery is 17.04 W

Explanation:

Power through a circuit is given as

P = IV    ....1

where P is the power

I is the current through the circuit

V is the voltage through the circuit

The voltage in a circuit is given as

V = IR    ....2

Let us take the value of each resistor as equal to R

when connected in series, the total resistance will be

[tex]R_{t}[/tex] = R + R = 2R

If we assume constant voltage through the circuit, then from equation 2, the current in this case is

I = V/2R

If the resistors are connected in parallel, then the total resistance will be

[tex]\frac{1}{R_{t} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{R}[/tex] +

[tex]R_{t}[/tex] = R/2

The current in this case will be increased since the resistance is reduced

I = 2V/R

comparing the two situations, we can see that the current increased when connected in parallel to a ratio of

[tex]\frac{2V}{R}[/tex] ÷  [tex]\frac{V}{2R}[/tex] =  

This means that the current increased 4 times

From equation 1, we can see that electrical power is proportional to the current at a constant voltage, therefore, the power will also increase by four times to

P = 4 x 4.26 = 17.04 W

Explanation:

Find:

3 times that of the Celsius and 1/5 times that of the Celsius

Computation:

F = (9/5)C + 32

3 times that of the Celsius

If C = x

So F = 3x

So,

3x = (9/5)x + 32

15x = 9x +160

6x = 160

x = 26.67

So, C = 26.67° and F = 80°

1/5 times that of the Celsius

If C = x

So F = x/5

So,

x/5 = (9/5)x + 32

x = 9x + 160

x = -20

So, C = -20° and F = -4°

Snell's Law: Light goes from material having a refractive index of n 1 into a material with refractive index n 2. If the refracted light is bent away from the normal, what can you conclude about the indices of refraction

Answers

Answer:

a) the light is close to normal therefore the reference incidence of medium 1 is less than medium n2 where the ray is transmitted.

b) The ray is far from normal in this case the refractive index of medium 1 is greater than index of medium 2

Explanation:

The expression for the angle of refraction is

          n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂

refractive index n₁ is for incident light and n₂ is for transmitted light.

We have two cases

a) the light is close to normal therefore the reference incidence of medium 1 is less than medium n2 where the ray is transmitted.

b) The ray is far from normal in this case the refractive index of medium 1 is greater than index of medium 2

The Milky Way has a diameter (proper length) of about 1.2×105 light-years. According to an astronaut, how many years would it take to cross the Milky Way if the speed of the spacecraft is 0.890 c?

Answers

Answer:

t = 134834.31 years

Explanation:

First we find the speed of the ship:

v = 0.890 c

where,

v = speed of the ship = ?

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Therefore, using the values, we get:

v = (0.89)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)

v = 2.67 x 10⁸ m/s

Now, we find the distance in meters:

Distance = s = (1.2 x 10⁵ light years)(9.461 x 10¹⁵/1 light year)

s = 11.35 x 10²⁰ m

Now, for the time we use the following equation:

s = vt

t = s/v

t = (11.35 x 10²⁰ m)/(2.67 x 10⁸ m/s)

t = (4.25 x 10¹² s)(1 h/3600 s)(1 day/24 h)(1 year/365 days)

t = 134834.31 years

Answers

Answer:

180 J

Explanation:

Mechanical energy = kinetic energy + potential energy

ME = KE + PE

ME = ½ mv² + mgh

ME = ½ (0.430 kg) (25.3 m/s)² + (0.430 kg) (9.8 m/s²) (10.0 m)

ME = 180 J

Mechanical energy is conserved, so it is 180 J at all points of the trajectory.

The baseball's mechanical energy when it is at a height of 8.0m is 180 J.

What is mechanical energy?

The mechanical energy is the sum of kinetic energy and the potential energy of an object at any instant of time. Mechanical energy is always conserved.

Mechanical energy = kinetic energy + potential energy

Given is the mass of baseball m= 0.430 kg, height h =10m, speed v= 25.3m/s.

ME = KE + PE

ME = ½ mv² + mgh

Substitute the values, we get

ME = ½ (0.430 kg) (25.3 m/s)² + (0.430 kg) (9.8 m/s²) (10.0 m)

ME = 180 J

Thus, the baseball's mechanical energy when it is at a height of 8.0m is 180 J.

Your favorite radio station broadcasts at a frequency of 91.5 MHz with a power of 11.5 kW. How many photons does the antenna of the station emit in each second?

Answers

Answer:

Number of photons emit per second = 1.9 × 10²⁹  (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Frequency = 91.5 MHz

Power = 11.5 Kw = 11,500 J/s

Find:

Number of photons emit per second

Computation:

Total energy with frequency (E) = hf

Total energy with frequency (E) = 6.626×10⁻³⁴  × 91.5×10⁶

Total energy with frequency (E) = 6.06×10⁻²⁶ J

Number of photons emit per second = 11,500 / 6.06×10⁻²⁶

Number of photons emit per second = 1897.689 × 10²⁶

Number of photons emit per second = 1.9 × 10²⁹  (Approx)

Explain why the two plates of a capacitor are charged to the same magnitude when a battery is connected to the capacitor.

Answers

Answer:

This is because the same electron removed from the positively charged plate is what is taken to the negatively charged plate, maintaining the same amount of electron according to the conservation of charge in an electric circuit.

Explanation:

In any circuit, electrons are neither created nor destroyed according to the laws of conservation of charge, but are transferred from one point to another on the circuit. When the plates of a capacitor are connected to battery, the battery pushes the electron to move due to its potential difference. Electrons are then moved from the positive plate, at a steady rate, to the negative plate. The removal of electrons from the positive plate is what leaves it positively charged from deficiency of electrons, and the addition of electrons at the negatively charged plate is what leaves the plate negatively charge from excess of electrons. From this, we can see that the same electrons removed from the positively charged plate are  taken to the negatively charged plate.

2. The nuclear model of the atom held that
a. electrons were randomly spread through "a sphere of uniform positive
electrification."
b. matter was made of tiny electrically charged particles that were smaller than the
atom
C. matter was made of tiny, indivisible particles.
d. the atom had a dense, positively charged nucleus.​

Answers

Answer:

the atom had a dense, positively charged nucleus.​

Explanation:

Ernest Rutherford, based on the experiment carried out by two of his graduate students, established the authenticity of the nuclear model of the atom.

According to the nuclear model, an atom is made up of a dense positive core called the nucleus. Electrons are found to move round this nucleus in orbits. This is akin to the movement of the planets round the sun in the solar system.

A screen is placed a distance dd to the right of an object. A converging lens with focal length ff is placed between the object and the screen. In terms of f, what is the smallest value d can have for an image to be in focus on the screen?

Answers

Answer:

2f

Explanation:

The formula for the object - image relationship of thin lens is given as;

1/s + 1/s' = 1/f

Where;

s is object distance from lens

s' is the image distance from the lens

f is the focal length of the lens

Total distance of the object and image from the lens is given as;

d = s + s'

We earlier said that; 1/s + 1/s' = 1/f

Making s' the subject, we have;

s' = sf/(s - f)

Since d = s + s'

Thus;

d = s + (sf/(s - f))

Expanding this, we have;

d = s²/(s - f)

The derivative of this with respect to d gives;

d(d(s))/ds = (2s/(s - f)) - s²/(s - f)²

Equating to zero, we have;

(2s/(s - f)) - s²/(s - f)² = 0

(2s/(s - f)) = s²/(s - f)²

Thus;

2s = s²/(s - f)

s² = 2s(s - f)

s² = 2s² - 2sf

2s² - s² = 2sf

s² = 2sf

s = 2f

A heat engine operates between 200 K and 100 K. In each cycle it takes 100 J from the hot reservoir, loses 25 J to the cold reservoir, and does 75 J of work. This heat engine violates the second law but not the first law of thermodynamics. Why is this true?

Answers

Answer:

It does not violate the first law because the total energy taken is what is used 100J = 25J + 75J

But violates 2nd lawbecause the engine has a higher energy after doing work than the initial for e.g A cold object in contact with a hot one never gets colder, transferring heat to the hot object and making it hotter confirming the second law
