Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

3A. This phenomenon can be seen in the discrete emission of the molecules.

3B. The emotion of the atoms is observed, from states high in energy to a state of minimum energy that is stable indefinitely.

3C. When an electron beam passes through an inhomogeneous magnetic field, it is divided into only two beams

3D. This is due to the stimulated emission

3E. The penetration of a potential barrier is observed in the radioactive emission of heavy atoms, where an alpha particle (Helium nucleus)

Explanation:

This problem asks for some experimental explanations of various quantum phenomena.

3A. This phenomenon can be seen in the discrete emission of the molecules.

In the classical explanation all states or energies are allowed, therefore when emitting energy (photons) there should be a continuum, this is not observed

In the correct quantum explanation only some states are allowed, therefore the emission must be discrete, which is observed in the emission or absorption of molecules and atoms

3B. The emotion of the atoms is observed, from states high in energy to a state of minimum energy that is stable indefinitely.

The incorrect classical explanation that if the minimum energy was zero the electrons cannot rotate around the nuclei and the atom collapses, this does not happen

3C. When an electron beam passes through an inhomogeneous magnetic field, it is divided into only two beams, which is evidence of the existence of two discrete states that we call spin, remember that a free electron beam has zero angular momentum.

3D. This is due to the stimulated emission that occurs when a photon passes through the emission zone, causing the atoms to have transitions and these emitted photons have the same initial photon location, the laser beam all photons are in phase and therefore it is coherent .

This is widely used for holographic and interference work

3E. The penetration of a potential barrier is observed in the radioactive emission of heavy atoms, where an alpha particle (Helium nucleus) leaves the atomic nucleus penetrating the barrier since its energy is lower than the nuclear barrier potential.

Suppose three forces are acting on a model rocket launching into the air. The force of gravity is 1.2 N acting downward. The rocket engine has a force of 12.3 N acting at an angle of 65⁰ above the horizontal to the right. The wind pushes the rocket with a force of 2.5 N to the left. Find the magnitude and direction of the resultant force on the rocket.

Please answer!!! Offering 50 points for answer and explanation

Answers

Answer:

can you include a picture

Decompose the forces acting on the rocket in horizontal and vertical components.

• net horizontal force:

F = (12.3 N) cos(65°) - 2.5 N ≈ 2.7 N

(notice we're taking "to the right" to be the positive direction)

• net vertical force:

F = (12.3 N) sin(65°) - 1.2 N ≈ 9.9 N

The resultant force then has magnitude

√((2.7 N)² + (9.9 N)²) ≈ 10.3 N

Since the horizontal and vertical components of the resultant are both positive, it points at an angle between 0° and 90° from the positive horizontal, so that

tan(θ) ≈ (9.9 N) / (2.7 N) ≈ 3.69

===>   θ ≈ arctan(3.69) ≈ 75°

Translatory motion and Circular motion difference between​

Answers

Correct question is;

What is the difference between Translatory motion and Circular motion.

Answer:

Outlined below

Explanation:

Circular motion is the motion whereby all the particles of a body move along the circumference of a circle while Translatory motion is one in which all particles move in a straight line or a curved fixed part.

Another difference is that in circular motion, the distance moved by all particles vary based on the distance moved from the centre of the circle while in Translatory motion, the distance covered by all particles is equal.

in the figure if coefficient of friction between block and surface is 0.2 then find acceleration produced by the resultant force acting on the block (take g= 10 m/s²)​

Answers

A N S W E R :

☃ First of all we have to calculate frictional force by using below equation :

→ F = μR

→ F = 0.2 × 5 × 10

F = 10 N

Hence,the frictional force (F) is 10 N.

☃ But we know that frictional force is acting on opposite direction of the motion :

⇏Net force = 15 - 10

Net force = 5 N

Hence,the net force is 5 N.

☃ By using Newton's second law we get :

Let the required acceleration produced by the block be 'a'.

➝ Force = mass × acceleration

➝ 5 = 5 × a

➝ a = 5 ÷ 5

a = 1 m/s²

Hence,the acceleration produced by the resultant force acting on the block is 1 m/.

The rate of change of velocity or speed is known as acceleration. If a car increases it speed form 10 to 20m/s in 2 seconds, then what is its rate of change in velocity?
A) 5 m/s/s
B) 10 m/s/s
C) 20 m/s/s
D) 40 m/s/s

Answers

Answer:

A) 5 m/s/s

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity = 10m/s²

Final velocity = 20m/s²

Time, t = 2 seconds.

In physics, acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time.

This simply means that, acceleration is given by the subtraction of initial velocity from the final velocity all over time.

Hence, if we subtract the initial velocity from the final velocity and divide that by the time, we can calculate an object’s acceleration.

Mathematically, acceleration is given by the equation;

[tex]Acceleration, a = \frac{final \; velocity - initial \; velocity}{time}[/tex]

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex]Acceleration, a = \frac{20 - 10}{2}[/tex]

[tex]Acceleration, a = \frac{10}{2}[/tex]

Acceleration, a = 5m/s²

A small sphere of mass m and charge –q is released from rest at point T. If the electric potentials at points S and T are VS and VT, respectively, what is the speed of the sphere when it reaches point S? Ignore the effects of gravity.
(A) 2q/m(Vs + VT)
(B) 4q/m(Vs + VT)
(C) q/2m(Vs - VT)
(D) q/2m (Vs + VT)
(E) 2q/m(Vs - VT)

Answers

Answer:

(E) √[2q/m(Vs - VT)]

Explanation:

Since the charge -q moves from VT to VS, the potential difference is VT - VS.

The work done in moving the charge q across a potential difference V is given by W = qV.

Now, the work done in moving the charge -q across that potential difference VT - VS is thus W = -q(VT - VS) = -q[-(VS - VT)] = q(VS - VT). This work equals the sphere's kinetic energy and kinetic energy equals K = 1/2mv² where m = mass of sphere and v = speed of sphere.

So, K = W

1/2mv² = q(VS - VT)

v² = 2q/m(VS - VT)

taking square root of both sides, we have

v = √[2q/m(Vs - VT)]

Some metals have a molecular structure that makes them good conductors. Explain how understanding this relationship can help engineers make more powerful batteries.​

Answers

Answer:

Explained below.

Explanation:

Conductors can be defined as materials that permit electricity to flow through them easily.

Now, metals have a molecular structure that makes them good conductors because electrons in the atoms of these conductors tend to move freely from one atom to the other. So a majority of metals make good conductors because these metals tend to hold their electrons loosely. In short, it can help engineers make powerful batteries because then it means that they are capable of giving much more electrical energy since nowadays, advanced batteries make use of ion charges for the batteries.

  [tex]W = 242.5 \ J[/tex]

1b

    [tex]W = 240 \ J[/tex]

Explanation:

Considering question a

From the question we are told that

       The mass of the toy baby stroller is  [tex]m = 5.0 \ kg[/tex]

        The distance covered is    [tex]d = 7.0\ m[/tex]

          The force the girl applies on the handle  is  [tex]F = 40 \ N[/tex]

          The angle at which this force is applied is  [tex]\theta = 30^o[/tex]

Generally the workdone is mathematically represented as

          [tex]W = F_x * d[/tex]

Here  [tex]F_x[/tex] is the force along the horizontal axis , this is mathematically represented as

           [tex]F_x = F cos (\theta )[/tex]

=>         [tex]F_x = 40 * cos(30 )[/tex]

=>         [tex]F_x = 34.64 \ N[/tex]

So

              [tex]W = 34.64 * 7[/tex]

=>           [tex]W = 242.5 \ J[/tex]

Considering question b

From the question we are told that

       The mass of the toy baby stroller is  [tex]m = 20 \ kg[/tex]

        The distance covered is    [tex]d = 4 \ m[/tex]

          The force the girl applies on the handle  is  [tex]F = 60 \ N[/tex]      

Generally the workdone is mathematically represented as

          [tex]W = F * d[/tex]

=>     [tex]W = 60 * 4[/tex]

=>     [tex]W = 240 \ J[/tex]

What is the resistance of a wire with "p" of .25, a length "L" of 11.2, and an area "A" of 1.26?

Answers

Answer:

Resistance = 2.2 Ohms.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Resistivity, P = 0.25

Length, L = 11.2

Area, A = 1.26

To find the resistance.

Resistance is given by the formula below;

Resistance = PL/A

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Resistance = (0.25*11.2)1.26

Resistance = 2.8/1.26

Resistance = 2.2 Ohms.

Therefore, the resistance of the wire is 2.2 Ohms.

A bowling ball weighing 71.2 N is swinging like a pendulum at the end of a 3.8 m rope. As the ball swings through its lowest point, its speed is measured at 4.2 m/s. What is the magnitude and direction of the acceleration of the ball at this point?

Answers

At its lowest point, the ball feels a downward force due to its weight of 71.2 N and an upward force of tension from the rope. Its motion is circular, so that the net radial acceleration is felt upward toward the center of the circle.

With a tangential speed of 4.2 m/s at the lowest point, its radial acceleration has magnitude

a = (4.2 m/s)² / (3.8 m) ≈ 4.6 m/s²

A 1.13 kg skateboard is coasting along the pavement at a speed of 4.28 m/s when a 0.93
kg cat drops from a tree vertically downward onto the skateboard. What is the speed of the
skateboard-cat combination?

Answers

By conservation of momentum,

Pinitial = Pfinal

m1v1 + m2v2 = (m1 + m2)*vf

m1 = mass of skateboard = 1.13 kg

m2 = mass of cat = 0.93 kg

v1 = initial velocity of skateboard = 4.28 m/s

v2 = initial velocity of cat = 0 m/s

vf = final velocity of skateboard-cat combo

So plug in the values and solve for vf,

1.13(4.28) + 0.93(0) = (1.13 + 0.93)vf

vf = 2.35 m/s
