A student walks 350 m [S], then 400 m [E20°N], and finally 550 m [N10°W]. Using the component method, find the resultant (total) displacement). Round your answer to the appropriate significant figures. Round your angle to the nearest degree.

Answers

Answer 1

In component form, the displacement vectors become

• 350 m [S]   ==>   (0, -350) m

• 400 m [E 20° N]   ==>   (400 cos(20°), 400 sin(20°)) m

(which I interpret to mean 20° north of east]

• 550 m [N 10° W]   ==>   (550 cos(100°), 550 sin(100°)) m

Then the student's total displacement is the sum of these:

(0 + 400 cos(20°) + 550 cos(100°), -350 + 400 sin(20°) + 550 sin(100°)) m

≈ (280.371, 328.452) m

which leaves the student a distance of about 431.8 m from their starting point in a direction of around arctan(328.452/280.371) ≈ 50° from the horizontal, i.e. approximately 431.8 m [E 50° N].

An amoeba has 1.00 x 1016 protons and a net charge of 0.300 pC. Assuming there are 1.88 x 106 fewer electrons than protons, If you paired them up, what fraction of the protons would have no electrons

Answers

Answer:

The fraction of the protons would have no electrons [tex]=1.88\times 10^{-10}[/tex]

Explanation:

We are given that

Amoeba has total number of protons=[tex]1.00\times 10^{16}[/tex]

Net charge, Q=0.300pC

Electrons are fewer than protons=[tex]1.88\times 10^6[/tex]

We have to find the fraction of protons would have no electrons.

The fraction of the protons would have no electrons

=[tex]\frac{Fewer\;electrons}{Total\;protons}[/tex]

The fraction of the protons would have no electrons

=[tex]\frac{1.88\times 10^{6}}{1.00\times 10^{16}}[/tex]

[tex]=1.88\times 10^{-10}[/tex]

Hence, the fraction of the protons would have no electrons [tex]=1.88\times 10^{-10}[/tex]

Sebastián se encuentra en una parada de trenes. El tren n° 15 pasa sin detenerse a una velocidad de 35 km/h. Si situamos el sistema de referencia en Sebastián, ¿el tren n° 15 está en reposo o en movimiento?

Answers

Answer:

the train is moving relative to the boy

Explanation:

When the train is on the road, it moves with respect to the Earth at a speed of 35 km / h. When we arrive at the station we change the reference system from the ground to the boy who is in the station, therefore the speed of the train can change

               v ’= v + u

where v is the speed of the train with respect to the boy, v is the speed with respect to the ground and u the speed of the boy with respect to the ground

In general, the people in the station are still, that is, their speed with respect to the ground is zero, consequently the speed of the train does not change.

The correct answer is that the train is moving relative to the boy.

What happen to the frequency of transverse vibration of a stretched string if its tension is halved and the area of cross section of the string is doubled?

Answers

Answer:

The fundamental frequency of the stretched string is:

[tex]f=[/tex] [tex]\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{T}{L} }[/tex] [ T = Tension and μ = mass per unit length]

Here,

 μ = [tex]\frac{m}{L} = \frac{Vp}{L} = Ap[/tex]

[tex]f= \frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{T}{Ap} }[/tex]

If T is halved and A is doubled,

[tex]f= \frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{T'}{A'p} } = \sqrt{\frac{1}{2* 2* A* p} } = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{T}{Ap} } = \frac{1}{2} f[/tex]

Thus, the frequency is reduced to half if its tension is halved and the area of cross-section of the string is doubled.

When the tension is halved and the area of cross section is doubled, the frequency increases by a factor of 1.414.

The frequency of transverse vibration of a stretched string is calculated as follows;

[tex]f = \frac{1}{2l} \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} }[/tex]

where;

T is the tension on the stringμ is the mass per unit length

[tex]f = \frac{1}{2l} \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} }\\\\f = \frac{1}{2l} \sqrt{\frac{Tl}{m} } \\\\f = \frac{l^2}{2l} \sqrt{\frac{T}{m} } \\\\f = \frac{A}{2l} \sqrt{\frac{T}{m}}[/tex]

when the tension is halved and the area of cross section is doubled, the frequency is calculated as;

[tex]\frac{f_1}{A_1 \sqrt{T_1} } = \frac{f_2}{A_2\sqrt{T_2} } \\\\f_2 = \frac{f_1 A_2\sqrt{T_2}}{A_1 \sqrt{T_1} }\\\\f_2 = \frac{f_1 \times 2A_1\sqrt{0.5T_1} }{\sqrt{T_1} }\\\\f_2 = \frac{f_1 \times 2A_1 \times 0.7071\sqrt{T_1} }{\sqrt{T_1} }\\\\f_2 = 1.414 f_1[/tex]

Thus, when the tension is halved and the area of cross section is doubled, the frequency increases by a factor of 1.414.

show that pv=nrt has the same unit with energy​

Answers

Answer:

The unit of the equation P·V = n·R·T is the Joules which is the same as the unit of energy

Explanation:

The unit of energy is Joules, with symbol J

The given equation for an ideal gas is P·V = n·R·T

Where;

P = The pressure of the gas with units Pascals, Pa

V = The volume of the gas, with units m³

n = The number of moles with unit moles

R = The universal gas constant = 8.314 J/(mol·K)

T = The temperature, with units, Kelvin, K

Therefore, we get;

P·V has unit 1 Pa × 1 m³ = 1 N/m² × 1 m³ = 1 N·m = 1 Joule

Similarly, we get

n·R·T with units n mole × 8.314 J/(mol·K) × 1 K = 8.314·n Joules

Therefore, P·V = n·R·T, has the unit of Joules which is the same unit with energy.

why is the tin of regular coke sink in water?​

Answers

Answer:

This happens because the tin is made of estañum, and the estañum is denser than the water.

Remember the relation:

density = mass/volume

The general rule is that if an object is denser than water, it will sink

If an object is less dense than water, like a piece of wood, it will float.

And if an object has the same (or nearly the same) density as water, it will float, but fully submerged.

Based on that, we can conclude that the tin will sink because it's density is larger than the density of the water.

We can use  2 g H = v2^2 - v1^2    or

v2^2 = 2 g H + v1^2

Since 88 ft/sec = 60mph   we have 30 mph = 44 ft/sec

The object will return with the same speed that it had initially so the object

starts out with a downward speed of 44 ft/sec

Then v2^2 = 2 * 32 ft/sec^2 * 160 ft + 44 (ft/sec)^2

v2^2 = (2 * 32 * 160 + 44^2) ft^2 / sec^2 = 12180 ft^2/sec^2

v2 = 110 ft/sec

Answers

Complete question is;

A cylinder of compressed gas is at a temperature of 23°C. It is cooled until it reaches the pressure of 2000kPa. It has to be cooled to 90K before this happens. Calculate the starting pressure of the gas

Answer:

Starting pressure = 604 KPa

Explanation:

We are given;

Initial temperature; T1 =23°C = 298 K

Final temperature; T2 = 90 K

Final pressure; P2 = 2000 KPa

From gay lussac's law, we know that;

P1•T1 = P2•T2

P1 = (P2•T2)/T1

P1 = (2000 × 90)/298

P1 ≈ 604 KPa

The statement, that is, food irradiation leaves food mildly radioactive is not true.  

A technology, which uses ionizing radiation to improve safety and extend the shelf life of foods by eliminating and reducing insects and microbes is known as food irradiation.  

• Irradiation is used in canning fruits and vegetables and pasteurizing milk to make food safer for consumption.  

• Irradiation does not compromise nutritional quality, makes food radioactive, or change the texture, text, or appearance of food. The effect of irradiation is so minimal that it is not easy to identify that whether the food is irradiated.  

• Food irradiation has been approved in over forty countries and is almost practiced globally.

The mean of a class of values, [tex]\overline x[/tex] = ∑(Frequency × Midpoint)/∑(Frequency)

Therefore, we get;

[tex]\overline x[/tex] = (20+60+150+840+1620+550+260)/(2+2+3+12+18+5+2) = 79.[tex]\overline {54}[/tex]

The median class = The middle value lass = The class at the 22 nd value = 80 - 100

The median = 80 - 100

The modal class = The class with the highest frequency = 80 - 100

The mode = 80 - 100
