A 12.0-g sample of carbon from living matter decays at the rate of 162.5 decays/minute due to the radioactive 14C in it. What will be the decay rate of this sample in 1000 years? What will be the decay rate of this sample in 50000 years?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a)143.8 decays/minute

b)0.41 decays/minute

Explanation:

From;

0.693/t1/2 = 2.303/t log (Ao/A)

Where;

t1/2=half-life of C-14= 5670 years

t= time taken to decay

Ao= activity of a living sample

A= activity of the sample under study

a)

0.693/5670 = 2.303/1000 log(162.5/A)

1.22×10^-4 = 2.303×10^-3 log(162.5/A)

1.22×10^-4/2.303×10^-3 = log(162.5/A)

0.53 × 10^-1 = log(162.5/A)

5.3 × 10^-2 = log(162.5/A)

162.5/A = Antilog (5.3 × 10^-2 )

A= 162.5/1.13

A= 143.8 decays/minute

b)

0.693/5670 = 2.303/50000 log(162.5/A)

1.22×10^-4 = 4.61×10^-5 log(162.5/A)

1.22×10^-4/4.61×10^-5 = log(162.5/A)

0.26 × 10^1 = log(162.5/A)

2.6= log(162.5/A)

162.5/A = Antilog (2.6 )

A= 162.5/398.1

A= 0.41 decays/minute

(b) A piece of wood of volume 0.6 m² floats in water. Find the volume
exposed. What force is required to immerse it completely under water?
(Density of wood = 600 kg/m3, water = 1000 kg/m3)
[8]​

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the volume below water be v . Then

buoyant force = v d g where d is density of water , g is acceleration due to gravity

= v x 1000 x g

weight of wood piece = volume x density of wood x g

= .6 x 600 x g

for equilibrium while floating

buoyant force = weight

= v x 1000 x g  =  .6 x 600 x g

v = .36 m²

volume above water or volume exposed = .6 - .36

= .24 m²

When immersed completely ,

buoyant force = .6 x 1000 x 9.8

= 5880 N

weight of wood

=  .6 x 600 x g

= 3528 N

buoyant force is more than the weight . In order to equalise them for floating with full volume in water

weight required = 5880 - 3528

= 2352 N.

A vertical tube one meter long is open at the top. It is filled with 75 cm of water. If the velocity of sound is 344 m/s, what will the fundamental resonant frequency be (in Hz)?

Answers

Answer:

344Hz

Explanation:

First we need to more that the frequency will inky resonate in the portion not containing water. If the total length is 1m and the filled with water up to 75cm, the length of the air column will be 100cm - 75cm = 25cm

Fundamental frequency of a closed pipe fo = V/4L

V is the velocity of sound in air

L is the length of the air column

Given V = 344m/s

L = 25cm = 0.25m

fundamental resonant frequency = 344/4(0.25)

= 344/1

= 344Hz

Water flowing through a 1.6-cm-diameter pipe can fill a 500 L bathtub in 6.5 min.What is the speed of the water in the pipe?

Answers

Answer:

v = 6.38 m/s

Explanation:

discharge Q = 500 L / 6.5 min

flow through pipe is 1.6 cm x (1 m/100 cm ) = 0.016 m

using the flow rate formula Q = A * v

where A = area, v = velocity

the speed of water in the pipe = v = Q / A

      500 L        1 m³          1 min           π (0.016 m)²

v = ----------   x  --------  x ------------    ÷  --------------------

      6.5 min       10³ L       60 sec                 4

v = 6.38 m/s

The speed of the water is "12.95 m/s".

According to the question,

Volume,

V = 500 L

           = [tex]500\times 10^{-3} \ m^3[/tex]

Time,

t = 3.2 min

          = [tex]3.2\times 60[/tex]

          = [tex]192 \ s[/tex]

Diameter,

d = 1.6 cm

           = 0.016 m

As we know,

Area of cross-section of pipe will be:

→ [tex]A = \pi (\frac{d}{2} )^2[/tex]

      [tex]= 3.14\times (\frac{0.016}{2} )^2[/tex]

Complete question:

A 40-turn coil has a diameter of 17 cm. The coil is placed in a spatially uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.40 T so that the face of the coil and the magnetic field are perpendicular. Find the magnitude of the emf induced in the coil (in V) if the magnetic field is reduced to zero uniformly in the following times.  (a) 0.10 s, (b) 1.0 s, and (c) 60 s.

Answer:

(a) E = 3.632 V

(b) E = 0.3632  V

(c) E = 6.053 mV

Explanation:

Given;

number of turn of the coil, N = 40 turn

diameter of the coil, d = 17 cm = 0.17 m

radius of the coil, r = d /2 = 0.17 /2 = 0.085 m

initial magnitude of magnetic field, B₁ = 0.4 T

final magnitude of magnetic field, B₂ = 0

The induced emf in the coil is given by;

[tex]E = -N\frac{dB}{dt} A = \frac{-NA(B_2 - B_1)}{dt} =\frac{NA(B_1-B_2)}{dt} =\frac{NAB_1}{t}[/tex]

A is area of the coil = πr² = π(0.085)² = 0.0227 m²

(a) when the time is 0.1 s

[tex]E= \frac{40*0.0227*0.4}{0.1} = 3.632 \ V[/tex]

(b) when the time is 1 s

[tex]E = \frac{40*0.0227*0.4}{1} \\\\E = 0.3632 \ V[/tex]

(c) when the time is 60 s

[tex]E = \frac{40*0.0227*0.4}{60} \\\\E = 6.053 \ mV[/tex]

A flatbed truck is carrying a 20-kg crate up a sloping road. The coefficient of static friction between the crate and the bed is 0.40, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.30. What is the maximum angle of slope that the truck can climb at constant speed if the crate is to stay in place

Answers

Answer:

The angle is  [tex]\theta =21.8 ^o[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass of the crate is  [tex]m_c = 20 \ kg[/tex]

   The coefficient of static friction is  [tex]\mu_s = 0.40[/tex]

   The  coefficient of kinetic friction is  [tex]\mu_k = 0.30[/tex]

Generally  for the the crate not to slip , the static frictional  must be equal to the force driving the truck

   i.e

           [tex]F_f = F[/tex]

Now since we are considering a slope that static frictional force is mathematically represented as

            [tex]F_f = mg * cos(\theta) * \mu_s[/tex]

While the force driving the truck is mathematically represented as

          [tex]F = mg * sin (\theta )[/tex]

Here  mg is the weight of the crate  so

         So

               [tex]mg * cos (\theta ) \mu_s = mg * sin (\theta )[/tex]

=>             [tex]\frac{sin (\theta )}{cos (\theta)} = \mu_s[/tex]

=>          [tex]\theta = tan ^{-1} [\mu_s ][/tex]

=>          [tex]\theta = tan ^{-1} [0.40 ][/tex]

=>          [tex]\theta =21.8 ^o[/tex]

a) ¿En qué posición es mínima la magnitud de la fuerza sobre la masa de un sistema masa-resorte? 1) x 0, 2) x A o 3) x A. ¿Por qué? b) Con m 0.500 kg, k 150 N/m y A 0.150 m, calcule la magnitud de la fuerza sobre la masa y la aceleración de la masa en x 0, 0.050 m y 0.150 m.

Answers

Answer:

a) the correct answer is 1 , b) x=0   F=0, a=0

x= 0.050    F= -7.5 N,  a= -15 m/s²

x= 0.150     F= 22.5 N,  a=- 45 m/s²

Explanation:

a) In a mass - spring system the force is given by the Hooke force,

          F = - k x

Analyzing this equation we see that the outside is proportional to the elongation from the equilibrium position, therefore the force is zero when the spring is in its equilibrium position

the correct answer is 1

b) we assume that the given values ​​are from the equilibrium position of the spring.

Let's calculate the force

x = 0

      F = 0

x = 0.050

      F = - 150 0.050

      F = - 7.50 N

x = 0.150

      F = - 150 0.150

      F = - 22.5 N

let's use Newton's second law to find the acceleration

      F = m a

      a = F / m

x = 0 m

      a = 0

x = 0.050 m

      a = -7.50 / 0.50

      a = - 15 m / s²

x = 0.150 m

      a = - 22.5 / 0.50

      a = - 45 m/s²

TRASLATE

a) En un sistema masa – resorte  la fuerza es dada por la fuerza de Hoke,  

          F= - k x

analizando esta ecuación vemos que la fuera es proporcional a la elongación desde la posición de equilibrio, por lo tanto la fuerza es cero cuando el resorte esta en su posición de equilibrio

la respuesta correcta es  1

b)suponemos que los valores dados son desde la posición de equilibrio del resorte.

Calculemos la fuerza  

x=0  

              F= 0

x=0.050  

              F = - 150 0.050

              F= - 7.50 N

x= 0.150  

                F= - 150 0.150

                F= - 22.5 N

usemos la segunda ley de Newton para encontrar la aceleración

          F = m a

          a = F/m

x =0  m

        a = 0

x= 0.050 m

         a = -7.50/ 0.50

          a =- 15 m/s²

x= 0.150 m

          a= - 22.5 / 0.50

          a= - 45 m/s²

Luz, who is skydiving, is traveling at terminal velocity with her body parallel to the ground. She then changes her body position to feet first toward the ground. What happens to her motion? She will continue to fall at the same terminal velocity because gravity has not changed. She will slow down because the air resistance will increase and be greater than gravity. She will speed up because air resistance will decrease and be less than gravity. She will begin to fall in free fall because she will have no air resistance acting on her.

Answers

Answer:

She will speed up because air resistance will decrease and be less than gravity.

Explanation:

While Luz was falling initially, she was experiencing a gravitational force downwards, and air resistance that arise from the drag force on her body

Her gravitational force downwards is constant, and she fall down with a net force of

[tex]F_{net}[/tex] = [tex]F_{g}[/tex] - [tex]F_{d}[/tex]

where [tex]F_{net}[/tex] is the net force on Luz downwards

[tex]F_{g}[/tex] is the gravitational force on Luz

[tex]F_{d}[/tex] is the drag force on Luz

The drag force on on Luz is proportional to her attack surface area.  When Luz changes her body position from her frontal area, parallel to the ground to falling with her feet first, she reduces the area available for drag force from her whole frontal area to just about a little more than the areas of the sole of her feet. This action reduces the drag force due to air resistance on her body.

Answer:

The correct answer to the question is the third statement.

Explanation:

She will speed up because air resistance will decrease and be less than gravity. Changing position during skydiving is one of the factors affecting the speed. Since the cross section area is smaller than the first position, she experiences lesser air resistance, which causes her to speed up.

A charged particle has mass 1.20kg and charge negative 0.002C. It is moving. There is a uniform magnetic field of strength 0.25T pointing in the positive z direction present everywhere in the room. The particle experiences a magnetic force of 0.015N in the positive x direction. What is the velocity of the particle

Answers

Answer:

The velocity of the particle is 30 m/s.

Explanation:

The velocity can be found using Lorentz force:

[tex] F = q*v \times B [/tex]

Where:

q: is the charge of the particle = 0.002 C

v: is the velocity of the particle

B: is the magnetic field = 0.25 T

F: is the magnetic force = 0.015 N

Since the magnetic field and the particle's velocity are orthogonal, the cross product is equal to the product of the absolutes values of v and B.

We have:

[tex] F = q|v||B| [/tex]

[tex] v = \frac{F}{qB} = \frac{0.015 N}{0.002 C*0.25 T} = 30 m/s [/tex]

Therefore, the velocity of the particle is 30 m/s.

Suppose you wanted to hold up an electron against the force of gravity by the attraction of a fixed proton some distance above it. How far above the electron would the proton have to be? (k = 1/4πε0 = 9.0 × 109 N ∙ m2/C2, e = 1.6 × 10-19 C, mproton = 1.67 × 10-27 kg, melectron = 9.11 × 10-31 kg)

Answers

Answer:

r = 5.08 m

Explanation:

The electric force of attraction or repulsion is given by :

[tex]F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}[/tex]

We need to find how far above the electron would the proton have to be if you wanted to hold up an electron against the force of gravity by the attraction of a fixed proton some distance above it.

So, the force from the proton is balanced by the mass of the electron.

[tex]\dfrac{kq_pq_e}{r^2}=mg[/tex]

r is distance

[tex]r=\sqrt{\dfrac{kq_pq_e}{mg}} \\\\r=\sqrt{\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times (1.6\times 10^{-19})^2}{9.11\times 10^{-31}\times 9.8}} \\\\r=5.08\ m[/tex]

So, proton have to be at a distance of 5.08 meters above the electron.

When reading a digital volt-ohmmeter (DVOM), you have a reading of 2168 mV, which is the same as:__________
A. 2168 millivolts.
B. 2.168 volts.
C. 1000 mV.
D. Both A and B

Answers

Answer:

D, both A and B

Explanation:

2168 mV is the SI unit for potential difference and the Voltmeter.

The primary unit is Volt, represented as V. Due to the fact that there can be a much higher reading, or an even much more smaller one, comes the need for variants of the same unit.

10^-3 is called milli and represented as m

10^3 is called killo and represented as k

10^-6 is called micro and represented as µ

10^6 is called mega and represented as M

and even much higher variants of up to 10^12 and 10^-12

As we can see from the aforementioned example, 10^-3 is milli and represented as m

And our question gave us the unit in mV, which stands for millivolts.

Also, if we look at option B, it states, 2.168 volts. This 2.168 volts is also the same thing as A. Take a look at it this way, I said mV is 10^-3, right?

So, 2168*10^-3 is also 2168/100 which is 2.168. The only difference here is, once we make this conversion from mV, we have to drop the milli tag, because we have already made a conversion, and thus, leave it as V.

2168 mV = 2.168V

Hence why we picked option D, Both A & B as the right one

If a ball is accelerating down through the air with no horizontal motion, what must be true about the net forces acting on the ball?(1 point) The net force on the ball is directed upward. The net force on the ball is zero. The gravitational force is greater than the drag. The drag is greater than the gravitational force.

Answers

Answer:

The net force on the ball is zero.

Explanation:

Newton's first law of motion states that an object will remain in the same state of motion or at rest unless a resultant force acts on it, and if the net force on an object is zero, then that means that the object will keep moving at the same acceleration or the object stays stationary.

So, the truth about the net forces acting on the ball is that the net force on the ball is zero.

The gravitational force is greater than the drag.

Explanation:

I took the quick check and got it wrong when I chose The net force on the ball is zero but I was right the first time with the third answer choice listed in the question.

A block sliding along a horizontal frictionless surface with speed v collides with a spring and compresses it by 1.0 cm . What will be the compression if the same block collides with the spring at a speed of 4v

Answers

Answer:

The  compression is  [tex]x = 0.05 \ m[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The first velocity is  v

     The  compression of the spring is  [tex]d = 1.0 \ cm = 0.01 \ m[/tex]

      The  second velocity is  4v

Generally according to the law of  energy conservation

   The  kinetic energy of the block is equal to the energy stored in the spring that is  

       [tex]\frac{1}{2} * m* v^ 2 = \frac{1}{2} * k * d^2[/tex]

For  first speed

      [tex]m* v^ 2 = k * 0.01^2[/tex]

=>   [tex]m* v^ 2 = k * 0.0001[/tex]

=>  [tex]k = \frac{ m v^2 }{ 0.0001}[/tex]

For second  speed

       [tex]\frac{1}{2} * m* (5v)^ 2 = \frac{1}{2} * k * x^2[/tex]

=>    [tex]12.5mv^2 = 0.5 k x^2[/tex]

substituting for k

=>    [tex]12.5mv^2 = 0.5 (\frac{mv^2}{0.0001} ) x^2[/tex]

=> [tex]12.5 = 5000x^2[/tex]

=>  [tex]x = 0.05 \ m[/tex]

Work done by the mover  = work done in pushing the crate + work done against friction

W = W'+Wf................. Equation 1

W = mgd+mgμd............ Equation 2

W = mgd(1+μ)................ Equation 3

Where m = mass of the crate, g = acceleration due to gravity, d = distance, μ = coefficient of  friction.

Given: m = 46 kg, d = 10.5 mm = 0.0105 m, μ = 0.5

constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 3

W = 46×9.8×0.0105(1+0.5)

W = 7.1 J

Can someone please solve these 6 questions and explain briefly? I really do not understand them. Thank you

Explanation:

Use SOH-CAH-TOA.

Sine = Opposite / Hypotenuse

Cosine = Adjacent / Hypotenuse

Tangent = Opposite / Adjacent

For example, in 2(a), we are given an angle and the hypotenuse.  We want to find the side adjacent to the angle.  Therefore, we should use cosine.

cos 58° = y / 32.3

y = 32.3 cos 58°

y ≈ 17.1

In 3(a), we are given the adjacent side and opposite side.  We want to find the angle.  So use tangent.

tan θ = 3.6 / 6.2

θ = tan⁻¹(3.6/6.2)

θ = 30.1°

In 4(a), we are given an angle and the hypotenuse.  We want to find the side opposite of the angle.  Therefore, we should use sine.

sin 47° = x / 29

x = 29 sin 47°

x ≈ 21.2

If an ancient campfire were analyzed, was found to have only about one-eighth the carbon-14 that is normally found in living things, how long ago was that campfire extinguished? Answer in units of y.

Answers

Answer:

17047.54 years or 17048 y

Explanation:

From;

0.693/t1/2 = 2.303/t log (Ao/A)

Where;

t1/2=half-life of the carbon-14 =5670 years

t= time elapsed

Ao= activity of living C-14

A= activity if the sample under study

But A= 1/8 Ao

Hence;

0.693/5670= 2.303/t log(Ao/1/8Ao)

1.22×10^-4 = 2.303/t log 8

1.22×10^-4 = 2.0798/t

t= 2.0798/1.22×10^-4

t= 17047.54 years

A simple pendulum consisting of a bob of mass m attached to a string of length L swings with a period T. If the bob's mass is doubled, approximately what will the pendulum's new period be?
A: T/2
B: T
C: sqrt(2)*T
D: 2T

Answers

Answer:

B. T

Explanation:

This is because the mass of the Bob does no relate to the period as given by the relationship

T = 2π(√L/g) so double mass is still T

Answer:

The correct option is (B).

Explanation:

The time period of a pendulum is given by :

[tex]T=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{l}{g}}[/tex]

l is the length of the pendulum

g is acceleration due to gravity

It is very clear that the time period is independent of the mass of the bob. If the mass of the bob is doubled, the time period of the pendulum remains the same i.e. T. Hence, the correct option is (B).

A boat sailing against the current experience a negative acceleration of 11 m/s^2. If the boat's initial velocity is 44m/s upstream, how long until it comes to a stop?

Answers

Answer:

4 s

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 44 m/s

v = 0 m/s

a = -11 m/s²

Find: t

v = at + v₀

0 m/s = (-11 m/s²) t + 44 m/s

t = 4 s

If the boat's initial velocity is 44m/s upstream, the time it takes to stop is found to be 4 seconds.

What is Acceleration?

Acceleration may be defined as the rate of change of velocity with respect to time. It is a vector quantity as it has both magnitude and direction. It is also the second derivative of position and the first derivative of velocity with respect to time.

According to the question,

v₀ = 44 m/s

v = 0 m/s

a = -11 m/s²

Now, you have to calculate the time, t.

So, you calculate the time, t with the help of the following formula:

v = at + v₀

       0 m/s = (-11 m/s²) t + 44 m/s

        t = 4 s.

Therefore, if the boat's initial velocity is 44m/s upstream, the time it takes to stop is found to be 4 seconds.

If you wish to detect details of the size of atoms (about 1 ✕ 10−10 m) with electromagnetic radiation, it must have a wavelength of about this size.
(a) What is its frequency?
(b) What type of electromagnetic radiation might this be?

Answers

Answer:

a) 3×10^18 Hz

b) The electromagnetic wave is an x-ray

Explanation:

We know that the speed of an electromagnetic wave is given by;

c= λf

Where;

c= speed of electromagnetic waves = 3×10^8 ms-1

f= frequency of electromagnetic waves= the unknown

λ = wavelength of the electromagnetic wave= 1 ×10^-10 m

Hence;

f = c/λ= 3×10^8/ 1×10^-10

f= 3×10^18 Hz

b) The electromagnetic wave is an x-ray.

(a) The frequency of the electromagnetic radiation is [tex]3\times 10^{18} \ Hz[/tex]

(b)  The electromagnetic radiation is ultra violet ray.

The given parameters;

distance of the atom, λ = 1 x 10⁻¹⁰ m

The frequency of the electromagnetic radiation is calculated as follows;

[tex]c =f \lambda \\\\f = \frac{c}{\lambda} \\\\f = \frac{3\times 10^8}{1\times 10^{-10}} \\\\f = 3\times 10^{18} \ Hz[/tex]

The frequency range of ultra violet ray is between 10¹⁴ to 10¹⁸ m.

Thus, the electromagnetic radiation is ultra violet ray.
