g We have studied diffraction from a single slit, where light is sent through a thin opening. A similar phenomena occurs when light bends around a thin object, like a human hair. Here the width of the hair plays the role of the width of the single slit. Measurements found that when a beam of light of wavelength 632.8 nm was shone on a single strand of hair, the first dark fringe on either side of the central bright spot were 5.22 cm apart. If the screen is 1.25 meters away, how thick was this strand of hair?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]3.031\times 10^{-5}\ \text{m}[/tex]

Explanation:

[tex]y[/tex] = Distance between central maxima and first minimum

m = Order = 1

d = Thickness of hair

[tex]\lambda[/tex] = Wavelength = 632.8 nm

L = Distance between light source and screen = 1.25 m

Width of central maximum is given by

[tex]2y=5.22\times 10^{-2}\\\Rightarrow y=\dfrac{5.22\times 10^{-2}}{2}\\\Rightarrow y=0.0261\ \text{m}[/tex]

Distance between central maxima and first minimum is given by

[tex]y=L\tan\theta_{min}\\\Rightarrow \tan\theta_{min}=\dfrac{y}{L}\\\Rightarrow \tan\theta_{min}=\dfrac{0.0261}{1.25}\\\Rightarrow \theta_{min}=\tan^{-1}0.02088\\\Rightarrow \theta_{min}=1.1962^{\circ}[/tex]

Since [tex]\theta[/tex] is small [tex]\tan\theta_{min}=\sin\theta_{min}[/tex]

[tex]\sin\theta_{min}=\dfrac{m\lambda}{d}\\\Rightarrow d=\dfrac{m\lambda}{\sin\theta}\\\Rightarrow d=\dfrac{1\times 632.8\times 10^{-9}}{\sin1.1962^{\circ}}\\\Rightarrow d=3.031\times 10^{-5}\ \text{m}[/tex]

The strand of hair is [tex]3.031\times 10^{-5}\ \text{m}[/tex] thick.

A student at a polymer lab conducted a stress-relaxation experiment on a polymer, whose material response can be modeled by the Maxwell model. In the experiment, a 10-cm-long bar was stretched instantly until the stress reached 200 MPa. After 2 min, the measured stress in the bar was 160 MPa. a) Calculate the relaxation time constant of the polymer. b) If the initial stress was reached by stretching the bar by 16 mm, what is the viscosity of the dashpot in the Maxwell model

Answers

Answer: add 10 cm plus 200 mpa divided by 2 min then caculate that into 160 bars.

Explanation:

a) The relaxation time constant of the polymer is approximately 8.9 min.

b) The viscosity of the dashpot in the Maxwell model is approximately 4.55 GPa s.

What is the stress-relaxation model?

The stress-relaxation response of the Maxwell model can be modeled by the following equation:

σ(t) = σ₀ exp(-t/τ)

where σ₀ is the initial stress, τ is the relaxation time constant, and t is the time.

a) The relaxation time constant of the polymer:

σ(2 min) = 160 MPa

σ₀ = 200 MPa

160 MPa = 200 MPa exp(-2 min/τ)

Taking the natural logarithm of both sides, we get:

ln(160/200) = -2 min/τ

Solving for τ, we get:

τ = -2 min / ln(160/200) ≈ 8.9 min

Therefore, the relaxation time constant of the polymer is approximately 8.9 min.

b) The displacement of the spring in the Maxwell model can be modeled by the following equation:

x(t) = (σ₀ / G) (1 - exp(-t/τ))

where G is the shear modulus of the polymer. We can use this equation and the given displacement of 16 mm to find the viscosity of the dashpot:

x(t) = 16 mm = 0.016 m

σ₀ = 200 MPa

τ = 6.09 min = 365.4 s

Assume that the shear modulus of the polymer is constant and use the given stress to find it:

G = σ₀ / γ

where γ is the strain induced by the stretching.

Since the bar was stretched by 16 mm and its original length was 10 cm (i.e., 100 mm), the strain is:

γ = 16 mm / 100 mm = 0.16

Therefore,

G = 200 MPa / 0.16 = 1250 MPa

Now we can solve for the viscosity of the dashpot:

η = σ₀τ / x(t)

= (200 MPa) (365.4 s) / (0.016 m)

≈ 4.55 GPa s

Therefore, the viscosity of the dashpot in the Maxwell model is approximately 4.55 GPa s.

The potential energy of a 40-kg cannonball is 14000 J. How high was the cannon ball to have this much potential energy?

Answers

Answer:

35.71 m

Explanation:

Potential energy is calculated using this formula:

PE = mghwhere m = mass (kg). g = gravitational acceleration on Earth (9.8 m/s²), h = height (m)

We are given 3 out of the 4 variables in this problem. We want to solve for h, the height of the cannon ball.

List out the known variables:

PE = 14,000 J m = 40 kg g = 9.8 m/s² h = ? m

Substitute these values into the potential energy formula.

14,000 = (40)(9.8)h 14,000 = -392h h = 35.7142857143

The cannonball was 35.71 m high to have a potential energy of 14,000 J.

You pull with a force of 295 N on a rope that is attached to a block of mass 22 kg, and the block slides across the floor at a constant speed of 1.6 m/s. The rope makes an angle of 35 degrees with the horizontal. What is the net force on the block

Answers

Answer:

Fnet = 0

Explanation:

Since the block slides across the floor at constant speed, this means that it's not accelerated.According Newton's 2nd Law, if the acceleration is zero, the net force on the sliding mass must be zero.This means that there must be a friction force opposing to the horizontal component of the applied force, equal in magnitude to it:

       [tex]F_{appx} = F_{app} * cos \theta = 295 N * cos 35 = 242 N (1)[/tex]

In the vertical direction, the block is not accelerated either, so the sum of the normal force and the vertical component of the applied force, must be equal in magnitude to the force of gravity on the block:

      [tex]F_{appy} = F_{app} * cos \theta = 295 N * sin 35 = 169 N (2)[/tex]

⇒    169 N + Fn = Fg = 216 N  (3)

This means that there must be a normal force equal to the difference between Fappy and Fg, as follows:Fn = 216 N - 169 N = 47  N (4)

Q = 0.03x10^-3

Blood pressure = 11x10³

Pn = 4x10^-3

Density of blood = 1.06x10³

Pn - Pv = 8*Q*n*L/pi*r⁴

Pn - pv = 463.57pa

Pn - pv = 463.57pa

Make pn subject

when a constant force is applied to an object, the acceleration of the object varies inversely with its mass. When a certain constant force acts upon an object with a mass 12 kg, the acceleration of the object is 6 m/s. If the same force acts on another object whose mass is 9kg, what is the objects acceleration

Answers

Answer:

8 m/s²

Explanation:

From the question,

Since the same force act on both object,

F = ma = m'a'.............................. Equation 1

Where F = force action on the obeject, m = mass of the first object, a = acceleration of the first object, m' = mass of the second object, a' = acceleration of the second object.

make a' the subject of the equation

a' = ma/m'................... Equation 2

Given: m = 12 kg, a = 6 m/s², m' = 9 kg.

Substitute these values into equation 2

a' = 12(6)/9

a' = 8 m/s².

Hence the acceleration of the second object is 8 m/s²

Answers

Answer:

D. A large force produces a large change in the object’s momentum only if the force is applied over a very short time interval.

Explanation:

Momentum can be defined as the multiplication (product) of the mass possessed by an object and its velocity. Momentum is considered to be a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.

Mathematically, momentum is given by the formula;

[tex] Momentum = mass * velocity [/tex]

Also, the impulse of an object is given by the formula;

[tex] Impulse = force * time [/tex]

In accordance with the impulse-momentum theorem, the statement which is true about the effect of a force exerted upon an object is that a large force produces a large change in the object’s momentum only if the force is applied over a very short time interval.

g Design an experiment you can use to determine the mass of the metal cylinder. When you explain your experiment, be sure to mention: What is the underlying model (equation) that you can use to determine the mass from your measurements

Answers

Answer:

m = [tex]\frac{k}{g}[/tex] x,

graph of x vs m

Explanation:

For this exercise, the simplest way to determine the mass of the cylinder is to take a spring and hang the mass, measure how much the spring has stretched and calculate the mass, using the translational equilibrium equation

              F_e -W = 0

              k x = m g

              m = [tex]\frac{k}{g}[/tex] x

We are assuming that you know the constant k of the spring, if it is not known you must carry out a previous step, calibrate the spring, for this a series of known masses are taken and hung by measuring the elongation (x) from the equilibrium position, with these data a graph of x vs m is made to serve as a spring calibration.

  In the latter case, the elongation measured with the cylinder is found on the graph and the corresponding ordinate is the mass

Initial momentum = 255(2) – 242.5(1.5) = 146.25

Final momentum = 255Va + 290Vb + 242.5 Vc = 146.25

Vb - Va = 0.8(2) = 1.6

Vc - Vb = 0.8(1.5) = 1.2

Va = Vb -1.6

Vc = Vb + 1.2

255(Vb -1.6) + 290Vb + 242.5(Vb + 1.2) = 146.25

255 Vb – 408 + 290 Vb + 242.5 Vb + 291 = 146.25

787.5 Vb = 263.25

Vb = 0.334 m/s

Va = Vb -1.6 = 0.334 – 1.6 = -1.265 m/s

You wish to make a simple amusement park ride in which a steel-wheeled roller-coaster car travels down one long slope, where rolling friction is negligible, and later slows to a stop through kinetic friction between the roller coaster's locked wheels sliding along a horizontal plastic (polystyrene) track. Assume the roller-coaster car (filled with passengers) has a mass of 743.0 kg and starts 83.4 m above the ground. (a) Calculate how fast the car is going when it reaches the bottom of the hill. m/s (b) How much does the thermal energy of the system change during the stopping motion of the car

Answers

Answer:

(a) The car is going approximately 40.43 m/s at the bottom of the hill

(b) The thermal energy will increase by 607,268.76 J

Explanation:

In the question, we have;

The height of the roller coaster above ground = 83.4 m

The mass of the roller coaster, m = 743.0 kg

(a) By the conservation of energy principle, we have;

The potential energy at the top of the hill, P.E., is equal to the kinetic energy at the bottom of the hill, K.E.

∴ P.E. = K.E.

P.E. = m·g·h

Where;

m = The mass of the roller coaster = 743.0 kg

g = The acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h = The height of the roller coaster = 83.4 m

Therefore, we have;

P.E. = 743.0 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 83.4 m = 607,268.76 J

P.E. = 607,268.76 J

K.E. = 1/2·m·v²

∴ K.E. = 1/2 × 743.0 kg × v²

P.E. = K.E.

∴ P.E. = K.E. = 607,268.76 J

1/2 × 743.0 kg × v² = 607,268.76 J

v² = 607,268.76 J/(1/2 × 743.0 kg) = 1,634.64 m²/s²

v = √(1,634.64 m²/s²) ≈ 40.43 m/s

(b) Given that the material wheel moves along polystyrene track, the sound released will be minimal and almost all the kinetic energy will be converted to heat energy when the train stops, therefore, the thermal energy will increase by K.E. = 607,268.76 J

The thermal energy change of the system is 624,492 J.

We know that in the roller coaster, there is an energy transformation from gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy. As such we can write;

mgh = 1/2mv^2

Where we cancel out the mass from both sides, we are left with;

gh=0.5v^2

v= √gh/0.5

v = √10 × 83.4 m/0.5

v = 41 ms-1

Now the kinetic energy is converted also into heat energy hence;

Thermal energy change of the system = 1/2 mv^2 = 0.5 × 743.0 kg × ( 41 ms-1)^2 = 624,492 J

What is Pythagoras' theorem?

Pythagoras' theorem is a fundamental theorem in mathematics that relates to the sides of a right-angled triangle. It states that in a right-angled triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides.

In equation form, the theorem can be written as:

c² = a² + b²

Where

c =the length of the hypotenuse,

a and b = the lengths of the other two sides.

The theorem is named after the ancient Greek mathematician Pythagoras, who is credited with his discovery and proof. Pythagoras' theorem is widely used in mathematics and has many practical applications in fields such as architecture, engineering, and physics.

Here in the question

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the distance from the takeoff point:

Distance = √(West)² + (North+Up)²

Plugging in the given values, we get:

Distance = √(10.4)² +( 8.7 + 2.1)²

Distance ≈ 14.99km

Therefore, the airplane is approximately 14.99km away from the takeoff point.

Answers

Answer:

a) F= 25.9 N

b) The object's speed would increase with time.

c) The object  would slow and come to rest.

Explanation:

a)

By definition of work, this is the process through which a force applied on an object, produces a displacement of the object.If the force is constant, and the displacement is parallel to the direction of the force, this work is just the product of the applied force times the distance, as follows:

       [tex]W = F_{app} * d (1)[/tex]

We can solve for Fapp, replacing W and d by their values:

       [tex]F_{app} =\frac{W}{d} = \frac{280J}{10.8m} = 25.9 N (2)[/tex]

b)

If the object is moving at constant speed when it is applied a force F, this means that this force must be compensated by an equal opposite force, in this case, the kinetic friction force.Since this force is constant while the object is moving, if we increase the force F making it larger, there will be a net force in the direction of the displacement, which will cause an acceleration that will increase the speed with time.

c)

We have already said in b) that if the object is moving at constant speed, there must be an equal and opposite force to the applied force F, the kinetic friction force, which is constant, acting on the object.If we apply  a force less than F, there will be a net force in the direction opposite to the displacement, that will cause a acceleration opposite to the displacement, which will make the object to slow down and eventually come to rest.

The one above I am guessing

Answer: A

Explanation:

An amusement park ride called the Rotor debuted in 1955 in Germany. Passengers stand in the cylindrical drum of the Rotor as it rotates around its axis. Once the Rotor reaches its operating speed, the floor drops but the riders remain pinned against the wall of the cylinder. Suppose the cylinder makes 26.0 rev/min and has a radius of 3.70 m. 1) What is the coefficient of static friction between the wall of the cylinder and the backs of the riders

Answers

Answer:

μs = 0.36

Explanation:

While the drum is rotating, the riders, in order to keep in a circular movement, are accelerated towards the center of the drum.This acceleration is produced by the centripetal force.Now, this force is not a different type of force, is the net force acting on the riders in this direction.Since the riders have their backs against the wall, and the normal force between the riders and the wall is perpendicular to the wall and aiming out of it, it is easily seen that this normal force is the same centripetal force.In the vertical direction, we have two forces acting on the riders: the force of gravity (which we call weight) downward, and the friction force, that will oppose to the relative movement between the riders and the wall, going upward.When this force be equal to the weight, it will have the maximum possible value, which can be written as follows:

       [tex]F_{frmax} = \mu_{s}* F_{n} = m * g (1)[/tex]

where μs= coefficient of static friction (our unknown)As  we have already said Fn = Fc.The value of the centripetal force, is related with the angular velocity ω and the radius of the drum r, as follows:

      [tex]F_{n} = m* \omega^{2} * r (2)[/tex]

Replacing (2) in (1), simplifying and rearranging terms, we can solve for μs, as follows:

       [tex]\mu_{s} = \frac{g}{\omega^{2} r} (3)[/tex]

Prior to replace ω for its value, is convenient to convert it from rev/min to rad/sec, as follows:

       [tex]\omega = 26.0 \frac{rev}{min} * \frac{1min}{60 sec} *\frac{2*\pi rad }{1 rev} = 2.72 rad/sec (4)[/tex]

Replacing g, ω and r in (3):[tex]\mu_{s} = \frac{g}{\omega^{2} r} = \frac{9.8m/s2}{(2.72rad/sec)^{2} *3.7 m} = 0.36 (5)[/tex]
