Assuming two hypothetical maps that each cover a standard 8.5 by 11-inch sheet of paper, the larger-scale map would cover a larger geographic area than the smaller-scale map.
a) true
b) false
Answer:
b) false
Explanation:
The scale of a map is the ratio of a distance on the map to the corresponding distance on the ground. Scaling allow us to capture a large geographical area on a reduced platform while still retaining the relative sizes and positioning of places on the map to their real life sizes and positioning. If both maps cover a standard 8.5 by 11-inch sheet of paper, then the map with the smaller ratio will have the bigger geographical area.
To understand better, let us assume two geographical areas A and B. A is bigger than B. If we were to put them both on the same area of map paper, then we'll have to scale up the smaller geographical area B so as to fit into the map paper. This means that the geographical area with the smaller area B will have the larger scale on the map.
The Kelvin temperature of the hot reservoir of an engine is twice that of the cold reservoir, and work done by the engine per cycle is 50 J.
Calculate:
(a) the efficiency of the engine,
(b) the heat absorbed per cycle, and
(c) the heat rejected per cycle.
Answer:
a) 50%
b) 100 J
c) 50 J
Explanation:
The cold temperature of the reservoir = [tex]T_{c}[/tex]
according to the problem, it is stated that the hot reservoir of an engine is twice that of the cold reservoir, therefore,
the hot temperature of the reservoir [tex]T_{h}[/tex] = [tex]2T_{c}[/tex]
The work done by the engine = 50 J
a) The max efficiency obtainable from a heat engine η = [tex]1 - \frac{T_{c} }{T_{h} }[/tex]
since [tex]T_{h}[/tex] = [tex]2T_{c}[/tex], the equation becomes
η = [tex]1 - \frac{T_{c} }{2T_{c} }[/tex] =
η = [tex]1 - \frac{1 }{2 }[/tex] = 0.5 = 50%
b) The heat absorbed per cycle will be gotten from
η = [tex]\frac{W}{Q}[/tex]
η is the efficiency of the system = 0.5
where W is the work done = 50 J
Q is the heat absorbed = ?
substituting, we have
0.5 = [tex]\frac{50}{Q}[/tex]
Q = 50/0.5 = 100 J
c) The heat rejected per cycle = 50% of the absorbed heat
==> 0.5 x 100 J = 50 J
(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]
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 research submarine can withstand an external pressure of 62 megapascals (million pascals) all the while maintaining a comfortable internal pressure of 101 kilopascals. How deep can it dive in the ocean before it would risk collapsing from the pressure
Answer:
The depth will be equal to 6141.96 m
Explanation:
pressure on the submarine [tex]P_{sea}[/tex] = 62 MPa = 62 x 10^6 Pa
we also know that [tex]P_{sea}[/tex] = ρgh
where
ρ is the density of sea water = 1029 kg/m^3
g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^2
h is the depth below the water that this pressure acts
substituting values, we have
[tex]P_{sea}[/tex] = 1029 x 9.81 x h = 10094.49h
The gauge pressure within the submarine [tex]P_{g}[/tex] = 101 kPa = 101000 Pa
this gauge pressure is balanced by the atmospheric pressure (proportional to 101325 Pa) that acts on the surface of the sea, so it cancels out.
Equating the pressure [tex]P_{sea}[/tex], we have
62 x 10^6 = 10094.49h
depth h = 6141.96 m
Calculate the density of a rod of metal in g/cm3, with a mass of 9.58g, a diameter of 8 mm and a height of 3.5cm
Answer:
5.448 g/cm³
Explanation:
Density: This is defined as the ratio of the mass of a body to its volume.
The unit of density is kg/m³ other sub units are g/cm³, mg/mm³.
From the question,
D = m/πr²h......................... Equation 1
Where D = density, m = mass, r = radius, h = height.
Given: m = 9.58 g, r = 8/2 mm = 4 mm = 0.4 cm, h = 3.5 cm
Substitute this values into equation 1
D = 9.58/(3.14×0.4²×3.5)
D = 5.448 g/cm³
Hence the density of the metal rod is 5.448 g/cm³

Q.Solve the following circuit find total resistance RT. Also find value of voltage across resister RC.
Answer:
R_total = 14.57 Ω , V_C = 1.176 V
Explanation:
To solve this circuit we are going to find the equivalent resistance of each branch, let's remember
* Serial resistance
[tex]R_{eq}[/tex] = ∑ [tex]R_{i}[/tex]
* For resistance in parallel
1 / R_{eq} = ∑ 1/R_{i}
We solve the two branches of the wheatstone bridge
Series resistors
Branch B
R_B = Rb + R4
R_B = 2 + 18
R_B = 20 Ω
Branch C
R_C5 = Rc + R5
R_C5 = 3 + 12
R_C5 = 15 Ω
Resistance in parallel R_B and R_C5
1 / R_BC = 1 / R_B + 1 / R_C5
1 / R_BC = 1/20 + 1/15 = 0.116666
R_BC = 8.57 Ω
Now we have a single branch, we solve the series resistance
R_total = R_A + R_BC
R_total = 6 + 8.57
R_total = 14.57 Ω
b) they ask us for the voltage in the resistance R_C
Let's remember that the voltage in a series circuit is the sum of the voltages
10 = V_a + V_BC
10 = i R_a + i R_BC = i (R_a + R_BC)
i = 10 / (R_a + R_BC)
i = 10 / (14.57)
i = 0.6863 A
The current in the series circuit is constant
V_BC = i R_BC
V_BC = 0.6863 8.57
V_BC = 5.8819 V
This voltage is divided in the bridge, for the two branches in parallel it is the same, but the resistance is different in each branch.
Branch C
V_BC = i R_C5
i = V_BC / R_C5
i = 5.8819 / 15
i = 0.39213 A
In this branch we have two resistors in series, let's remember that the current in a series circuit is constant
V_C = i R_C
V_C = 0.39213 3
V_C = 1.176 V
When making maps of the large-scale universe, astronomers estimate distances to the vast majority of galaxies by using:
Answer:
The comoving distance and the proper distance scale
Explanation:
The comoving distance scale removes the effects of the expansion of the universe, which leaves us with a distance that does not change in time due to the expansion of space (since space is constantly expanding). The comoving distance and proper distance are defined to be equal at the present time; therefore, the ratio of proper distance to comoving distance now is 1. The scale factor is sometimes not equal to 1. The distance between masses in the universe may change due to other, local factors like the motion of a galaxy within a cluster. Finally, we note that the expansion of the Universe results in the proper distance changing, but the comoving distance is unchanged by an expanding universe.
Select True or False for the following statements about Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle.
A) It is not possible to measure simultaneously the x and z positions of a particle exactly.
B) It is possible to measure simultaneously the x and y momentum components of a particle exactly.
C) It is possible to measure simultaneously the y position and the y momentum component of a particle exactly.
Answer:
A and B are true C is false
Explanation:
Because it states that if we know everything about where a particle is located (the uncertainty of position is small), we know nothing about its momentum (the uncertainty of momentum is large), and vice versa.
So in A we can know the positions of two objects
In B we can measure the momentum at two different places
While in C we cannot measure both the position and momentum of y accurately

If we use to construct the latches on the windows and doors, then the magnetism will keep thee latches secure.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
a. True
Explanation:
I'll assume the question is about magnetic latches and locks.
Magnetic door locks use an electromagnetic force to stop doors from opening, so they are ideal for security. There are two main types of electric locking devices. Locking devices can either be a fail-secure locking device that remains locked when power is lost, or a fail-safe locking device that is unlocked when de-energized. An electromagnetic lock creates a magnetic field when energized or powered up, this causes an electromagnet and armature plate to become attracted to each other strongly enough to keep a door from opening.

An evacuated tube uses an accelerating voltage of 40 kV to accelerate electrons to hit a copper plate and produce x rays. Nonrelativistically, what would be the maximum speed of these electrons
Answer:
1.187 x 10^8 m/s
Explanation:
the potential of the electric field V = 40 kV = 40000 V
the charge on an electron e = 1.6 x 10^-19 C
The energy of an accelerated electron in an electric field is given as
E = eV
E = 1.6 x 10^-19 x 40000 = 6.4 x 10^-15 J
This energy is equal to the kinetic energy with which the electron moves, according to the conservation of energy.
The kinetic energy = [tex]\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}[/tex]
where
m is the mass of the electron = 9.109 x 10^-31
v is the speed of the electron.
Equating the energy, we have
6.4 x 10^-15 = [tex]\frac{1}{2}*9.109*10^-31*v^{2}[/tex]
6.4 x 10^-15 = 4.55 x 10^-31 [tex]v^{2}[/tex]
[tex]v^{2}[/tex] = 1.41 x 10^16
[tex]x^{2} v = \sqrt{1.41*10^{16}}[/tex] = 1.187 x 10^8 m/s

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.
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 2MeV proton is moving perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field of 2.5 T.the force on a proton is
Answer:
The force on the proton is 7.85 x 10⁻¹² N
Explanation:
Given;
kinetic energy of the proton, K.E = 2MeV = 2 x 10⁶ x 1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ J
= 3.204 x 10⁻¹³ J
magnitude of the magnetic field, B = 2.5 T
The kinetic energy of the proton is given by;
[tex]K.E = \frac{1}{2} m v^2\\\\v^2 = \frac{2K.E}{m}\\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{2K.E}{m} } \\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{2*3.204*10^{-13}}{1.67 *10^{-27}}} \\\\v = 1.959*10^7 \ m/s[/tex]
The force on the proton moving perpendicular to magnetic field is given by;
F = qvB
F = 1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 1.959 x 10⁷ x 2.5
F = 7.85 x 10⁻¹² N
Therefore, the force on the proton is 7.85 x 10⁻¹² N

the lenses in a students eyes have arefractive power of 52. 0 diopters when she is able to focus on the board if the distance between the ey lens and the retina is 2.00 cm find how
Answer:
p = 49.95 cm
This is the distance from the student to the stepped, in order to be able to reach this distance they must sit in the first row
Explanation:
In medicine it is very common to express the potential visual corrections that is
P = 1 / f
where P is the power and f the focal length in meters
In this exercises give the power, let's find the focal length
f = 1 / p
f = 1/52
f = 0.01923 m = 1.923 cm
For geometrical optics calculations the most used equation is the constructor equation
1 / f = 1 / p + 1 / q
Where p and q are the distance to the object and the image, respectively
To be able to see an object clearly, its image must be on the retina,
q = 2.00 cm
find the distance to the object
1 / p = 1 / f - 1 / q
1 / p = 1 / 1,923 - 1/2.00
1 / p = 0.02002
p = 49.95 cm
This is the distance from the student to the stepped, in order to be able to reach this distance they must sit in the first row
An object at rest on a flat, horizontal surface explodes into two fragments, one seven times as massive as the other. The heavier fragment slides 8.30 m before stopping. How far does the lighter fragment slide
Answer:
the distance d traveled by the lighter fragment is 58.1 m.
Explanation:
mass of the lighter fragment = m
the lighter fragment traveled a distance = ?
mass of the heavier fragment = 7m
the distance covered by the heavier fragment = 8.30 m
The two particles will be given the same amount of energy from the explosion. This energy is used to do work by the two fragments.
work done by heavier fragment w = mgd
where m is the mass
g is acceleration due to gravity
d is the distance traveled.
substituting, the work done by the heavier fragment is
w = 7m x g x 8.3 = 58.1mg
The same way, the lighter fragment does work of
w = mgd
equating the two work done since they are given the same amount of energy from the explosion, we have
58.1mg = mgd
mg cancels out, we have
the distance d traveled by the lighter fragment d = 58.1 m
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?
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 + v₀0 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.

A 817 kg car has four 8.91 kg wheels. When the car is moving, what fraction of the total kinetic energy of the car is due to rotation of the wheels about their axles
Answer:
0.0107
Explanation:
We know that
The rotational kinetic energy due to four wheel is
1/2ဃ²I x 4
So
1/4mR²(v/R)² = mv²
But kinetic energy along straight path of the car is 1/2mv²
=> 1/2( 817)v ²
Kc= 408.5v²
So The fraction of total kinetic energy that is due to rotation of the wheel about their axis
Is Kw/Kw+Kc
and Kw = 1/2* 8.91v²= 4.45v²
So 4.45v²/ 4.45v²+ 408.5v²
= 0.0107 as fraction of total kinetic energy

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
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]

The coil has a radius of 8 cm and 110 turns. While moving the magnet closer towards the coil, at a certain point in time, the voltage meter shows -310 mV. What is the magnitude of the rate of change of the flux through the coil?
Answer:
The magnitude of the rate of change of the flux through the coil is 2.82 x 10⁻³ T.m²/s
Explanation:
Given;
radius of coil, r = 8 cm = 0.08 m
number of turns of the coil, N = 110 turns
the induced emf through the coil, E = -310mV
The induced emf through the coil is given by;
[tex]E = - N\frac{d \phi}{dt} \\\\\frac{d \phi}{dt} = \frac{E}{-N}[/tex]
Where;
dФ/dt is the magnitude of the rate of change of the flux through the coil
[tex]\frac{d\phi}{dt} = \frac{-0.31}{110} \\\\\frac{d\phi}{dt} =2.82*10^{-3} \ T.m^2/s[/tex]
Therefore, the magnitude of the rate of change of the flux through the coil is 2.82 x 10⁻³ T.m²/s

Answer:
The pressure of the gas inside the apparatus is 1000 mmHg
Explanation:
Given;
outside pressure, Patm = 750 mmHg
change in height of the two columns, Δh = 25 cm = 250 mm
The pressure of the gas inside the apparatus is given by;
P(gas) = P(atm) + P(Hg)
where;
P(atm) is the outside pressure
P(Hg) is the gauge pressure = height difference of the two columns.
P(gas) = 750 mmHg + 250 mmHg
P(gas) = 1000 mmHg
Therefore, the pressure of the gas inside the apparatus is 1000 mmHg
The pressure of the gas inside the apparatus is 1000 mmHg.
Calculation of the pressure:Since
outside pressure, Patm = 750 mmHg
change in height of the two columns, Δh = 25 cm = 250 mm
so we know that
The pressure of the gas inside the apparatus is
P(gas) = P(atm) + P(Hg)
here;
P(atm) is the outside pressure
P(Hg) is the gauge pressure = height difference of the two columns.
So,
P(gas) = 750 mmHg + 250 mmHg
P(gas) = 1000 mmHg
