How many minutes does it take for light to go from the sun to the planet Uranus, a distance of 2.88x109 km? (The
velocity of light is constant in free space and is 3.00x108 m/s)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

t = 160 minutes

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance of Uranus from Sun is [tex]2.88\times 10^9\ km[/tex]

We need to find the time taken by the light to go from sun to Uranus if the velocity of light is constant in free space and it is equal to c.

So,

[tex]t=\dfrac{d}{v}\\\\t=\dfrac{2.88\times 10^9\times 10^3\ m}{3\times 10^8}\\\\t=9600\ s[/tex]

Since, 1 minute = 60 seconds

t = 160 minutes

So, 160 minutes is taken by the light.

Mass of the truck = 8000Kg

K.E=[tex]\frac{1}{2} mv[/tex]

K.E =[tex]\frac{1}{2}*8000*v\\ 4000v[/tex]

Mass of the car = 1000 Kg

K.E of the car =[tex]\frac{1}{2}*1000*v\\ 500v[/tex]

Therefore Kinetic energy of the truck is greater than that of the car

Robin fired a bullet of mass 100 gm from a gun of mass 5 kg. The bullet leaves the gun with a speed of 400 m/s. After penetrating 4 cm of a plank of 10 cm, the bullet loses one third of its initial velocity.
a. Calculate the backward velocity of the gun?
b. Can the bullet penetrate the plank of the wood completely? Explain mathematically.

please help

Answers

(a) The recoil or backward velocity of the gun is 8 m/s.

(b) The bullet cannot penetrate the plank of the wood completely.

The given parameters include;

mass of the bullet, m₁ = 100 g = 0.1 kgmass of the gun, m₂ = 5 kginitial velocity of the bullet, u₁ = 400 m/sthickness of the plank, x = 10 cm

(a) The backward or recoil velocity of the gun is calculated by applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum.

let the backward or recoil  velocity of the gun = u₂

m₁u₁  + m₂u₂ = 0

m₂u₂ = -m₁u₁

[tex]u_2 = -\frac{m_1u_1}{m_2} \\\\u_2 = - \frac{0.1 \times 400}{5} \\\\u_2 = -8 \ m/s[/tex]

Thus, the recoil or backward velocity of the gun is 8 m/s.

(b) determine if the bullet can penetrate the plank of the wood completely

the bullet traveled 4 cm and lost ¹/₃ of u₁the remaining distance to completely penetrate the plank = 6 cmthe final velocity of the bullet at 4 cm, v = 400 - ¹/₃ x 400 m/s  = 266.67 m/s

the acceleration of the bullet is calculated as;

v² = u₁² + 2as

2as = v² - u²

[tex]a = \frac{v^2 -u_1^2}{2s} \\\\a = \frac{(266.67)^2 -(400)^2}{2\times 0.04} = -1.111 \times 10^6 \ m/s^2[/tex]

Finally, determine the distance traveled by the bullet when it comes to a complete stop, that is the final velocity = 0

[tex]v_f^2 = v^2 + 2ad\\\\2ad = v_f^2 - v^2\\\\d = \frac{v_f^2 - v^2}{2a} \\\\d = \frac{(0) - (266.67)^2}{2(-1.111\times 10^6)} \\\\d = 0.032 \ m[/tex]

d = 3.2 cm

The total distance traveled by the bullet inside the plank = 4 cm + 3.2 cm = 7.2 cm

Therefore, the bullet cannot penetrate the plank completely.

The balloon is removed from the refrigerator and placed on the kitchen counter. What would you expect to happen to the appearance of the balloon? Explain your answer in terms of particle movement and their change in temperature.

Answers

Answer:

1) The balloon will shrink

2) The balloon will grow bigger and regain its shape

Explanation:

By the kinetic theory of gases, we have;

[tex]v_{rms} = \sqrt{\dfrac{3 \cdot R \cdot T}{MW} }[/tex]

[tex]P = \dfrac{n \cdot MW \cdot vrms^2}{3 \cdot V}[/tex]

Where;

[tex]v_{rms}[/tex] = RMS Speed

R = The universal gas constant

T = The temperature

MW = The Molecular weight

n = The number of moles

V = The volume

P = The pressure

1) When the balloon is placed in the refrigerator for  minutes, the temperature inside the balloon will drop and RMS speed will reduce, however due to the elastic wall of the balloon, the pressure will remain the same therefore the volume  will reduce and the balloon will shrink

2) When the balloon is placed on the kitchen counter, the temperature inside the balloon will rise leading to the increase in the RMS speed which will raise the pressure effect on the wall  of the balloon as the balloon is made of elastic material, as the pressure rises, the wall expands to keep the pressure constant and the volume occupied by the air particles will increase, the balloon will grow bigger and regain its shape.

Answers

Answer:

* if the spring force is greater than the maximum of the static friction force,  

               Fe = m (a + μ_k g)

* If the elastic force is less than or equal to the static friction force, the result is with static friction coefficient

              Fe =μ_s m g

Explanation:

For this exercise we must apply Newton's second law to the system

X axis

         Fe -fr = m a

         Fe = m a + fr

Y axis  

        N-W = 0

        N = W = mg

the roe force is given by

        fr = μ N

        fr = μ mg

we substitute

      Fe = m a + μ m g

      Ee = m (a + μ g)

Let's analyze the solution. We have several possibilities

* if the spring force is greater than the maximum of the static friction force, the system acquires an acceleration and the result is with the kinetic friction coefficient

               Fe = m (a + μ_k g)

* If the elastic force is less than or equal to the static friction force, the result is with static friction coefficient

A man sees a deer in the road and slams on his brakes. If he is traveling at 45.2 m/s and comes to a stop in 2.74 s, what is his acceleration? O -6:02 m/s2 -0.0606 m/s2 -47.9 m/s2 0 -16.5 m/s2 ​

Answers

Answer:

16.50 m/s²

Explanation:

initial velocity(u)=45.2 m/s

final velocity(v)= 0 (it stops)

time taken(t)= 2.74 s

now,we have

acceleration(a)= (v-u)/t

= (0-45.2 m/s)/2.74s

= -45.2 m/s / 2.74s

= -16.50 m/s²

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf -16.5 \ m/s^2}}[/tex]

Explanation:

We are asked to find the acceleration of a man driving. Acceleration is the change in velocity over the change in time. Acceleration is calculated with the following formula.

[tex]a= \frac{v_f- v_i}{t}[/tex]

The driver's initial velocity is 45.2 meters per second. His final velocity is 0 meters per second because he came to a stop. He stopped in 2.74 seconds.

[tex]\bullet \ v_f= 0 \ m/s \\\bullet \ v_i= 45.2 \ m/s \\\bullet \ t= 2.74 \ s[/tex]

Substitute these values into the formula.

[tex]a= \frac{0 \ m/s - 45.2 \ m/s }{ 2.74 \ s}[/tex]

Solve the numerator by subtracting.

[tex]a= \frac{- 45.2 \ m/s }{ 2.74 \ s}[/tex]

[tex]a= -16.49635036 \ m/s^2[/tex]

The original measurements of velocity and time have 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we calculated, that is the tenths place. The 9 in the hundredth place tells us to round the 4 in the tenths place up to a 5.

[tex]a \approx -16.5 \ m/s^2[/tex]

The acceleration is approximately -16.5 meters per second squared. The acceleration is negative because the man slowed down and came to a stop.

If we removed the producers from this food web, how would it affect the balance of the ecosystem?

Answers

Answer:

In a food web, the removal of any trophic level upsets the balance within the web and can cause its eventual collapse. Because producers capture solar energy and convert it to food energy, their loss would affect every other level of the food web.

Explanation:

The removal of the producers would cause the collapse of the entire food web. Primary consumers or herbivores, which feed on producers directly, would die off. The next to be affected would be the secondary consumers or carnivores that eat the primary consumers. Higher level consumers would suffer as organisms from lower trophic levels start to die off. Decomposers would break down the bodies of dead organisms, returning their basic elements and compounds to the environment. However, even these dead organisms would run out and the entire food web would collapse.

A stone is dropped from the same height at Terai and at the top of the
mountain. Where does it fall faster? Why?​

Answers

Answer:

It will fall at the same speed in both locations

Explanation:

When an object is falling, it is accelerated to the same degree irrespective of the height from which it is falling.

All objects on the earth's surface experience an acceleration due to gravity. This acceleration due to gravity is the same for all objects irrespective of their height or mass.

Hence for a stone dropped from the same height as Terai and the top of a mountain, the acceleration due to gravity is the same in both cases hence they will fall at the same speed.

A diver performs a dive from a 10 m-platform. She
jumps vertically upwards at 3 m s initially.
Find the time she takes to reach the water surface​

Answers

Answer:

The time she takes to reach the water from when she jumps off the platform is 1.71 s

Explanation:

According to the equations of motion, we have;

v = u - g·t

v² = u² - 2·g·s

s₁ = u₁·t₁ + 1/2·g₁·t₁²

The given parameters are;

The height of the platform (assumption: above the water) = 10 m

The velocity with which she jumps, u = 3 m/s

The acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s²

The height to which she jumps, s, is found as follows;

v² = u² - 2·g·s

At maximum height, v = 0, which gives;

0 = 3² - 2×9.81×s

2×9.81×s = 3² = 9

s = 9/(2×9.81) = 0.4587 m

s = 0.4587 m

The time to maximum height, t, is found as follows;

v = u - g·t

0 = 3 - 9.81×t

9.81×t = 3

t = 3/9.81 = 0.3058 s

The total distance, s₁ from maximum height to the water surface = s + 10 = 0.4587 + 10 = 10.4587 m = 10.46 m

The time to reach the water from maximum height, t₁, is found as follows;

s₁ = u₁·t₁ + 1/2·g₁·t₁²

Where;

s₁ =  The total distance from maximum height to the water surface = 10.46 m

u₁ = The initial velocity, this time from the maximum height = 0 m/s

g₁ = The acceleration due to gravity, g (positive this time as the diver is accelerating down) = 9.81 m/s²

t₁ = The time to reach the water from maximum height

Substituting the values gives;

s₁ = u₁·t₁ + 1/2·g₁·t₁²

10.46 = 0·t₁ + 1/2·9.81·t₁²

t₁²= 10.46/(1/2×9.81) = 2.13 s²

t₁ = √2.13  = 1.46 s

Total time = t₁ + t = 1.46 + 0.3058 = 1.7066 ≈ 1.71 s.

Therefore, the time she takes to reach the water from when she jumps off the platform = 1.71 s.
