Explain the following observations:
a) A balloon filled with hydrogen gas floats in air;
B) A ship made of steel floats on water.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer and Explanation:

a. An oxygen-filled balloon is not able to float in the air, because the oxygen inside the balloon is of the same density, that is, the same "weight" as the oxygen outside the balloon and present in the atmosphere. The balloon can only float if the gas inside it is less dense than atmospheric oxygen. Helium gas is less dense than atmospheric gas, so if a balloon is filled with helium gas, that balloon will be able to float because of the difference in density.

b. The ship is able to float in the water because its steel construction is hollow and full of air. This makes the average density of this ship less than the density of water, which makes the ship lighter than water and for this reason, this ship is able to float. In addition, the ship is partially immersed, allowing the weight of the ship on the water to counteract the buoyant force that the water promotes on the ship. Weight and buoyant are two opposing forces that keep the ship afloat.

Explain why the flow from the battery increases when the switch is closed. Give the label of the concept(s) that you use from the model of electricity. [

Answers

Answer:

Due to the applied filed the electrons move in a particular direction.

Explanation:

Initially when the switch is off, the free electrons move here and there in any random directions in the conductor with the random speeds called thermal velocity.  So, tat the net flow is almost zero.

When the battery is connected is switch is ON, the random motion of the electrons aligned in a particular direction due to the force applied by the electric filed, so the net flow is not zero it increases and thus the current flow.

g A spherical container of inner diameter 0.9 meters contains nuclear waste that generates heat at the rate of 872 W/m3. Estimate the total rate of heat transfer from the container to its surroudings ignoring radiation.

Answers

Answer: The total rate of heat transfer from the container to its surroundings ignoring radiation is 332.67 W.

Explanation:

Given: Inner diameter = 0.9 m

q = 872 [tex]W/m^{3}[/tex]

Now, radii is calculated as follows.

[tex]r = \frac{diameter}{2}\\= \frac{0.9}{2}\\= 0.45 m[/tex]

Hence, the rate of heat transfer is as follows.

[tex]Q = q \times V[/tex]

where,

V = volume of sphere = [tex]\frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}[/tex]

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

[tex]Q = q \times \frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}\\= 872 W/m^{3} \times \frac{4}{3} \times 3.14 \times (0.45 m)^{3}\\= 332.67 W[/tex]

Thus, we can conclude that the total rate of heat transfer from the container to its surroundings ignoring radiation is 332.67 W.

A boy throws a ball upward with a velocity of 4.50 m/s at 60.0o. What is the maximum height reached by the ball?

Answers

Answer:

3.1m

Explanation:

Since we only care about the y direction we only need to find vy. Once u draw your vector you will realize that vy= 4.5sin60=3.897m/s.

use vf²=v²+2a(y)

At the maximum height the velocity is 0 and since the object is in freefall, a=-g

Plug in all values

0=15.1875-2*9.8(y)

solve for y

-15.1875*2/-9.8=y

y=3.1m

Answer:

0.774m

Explanation:

The formula for maximum height is given by:

hmax = ∨₀² ₓ Sin (α)² / 2 × g

where;

∨₀ = initial velocity

Sin (α) = angle of launch

g = gravitational acceleration which is equal to 9.8m/s²

Plugging in our values, we will have:

hmax = (4.50m/s)² × (Sin 60.0)² / 2 × 9.8m/s²

hmax= 20.25m/s × 0.75 / 19.8m/s²

hmax = 15.1875 / 19.8

hmax = 0.774m

how many bits are required to sample an incoming signal 4000 times per second using 64 different amplitude level

Answers

Answer:

6 bits

Explanation:

The quality of digitized signal can be improved by reducing quantizing error. This is done by increasing the number of amplitude levels, thereby minimizing the difference between the levels and hence producing a smoother signal.

Also, Sampling frequently (also known as oversampling) can help in improving signal quality.

To get the number of bits, we use:

2ⁿ = amplitude level

where n is the number of bits.

Given an amplitude level of 64, hence:

2ⁿ = 64

2ⁿ = 2⁶

n = 6 bits

A ball is thrown from ground level with an initial speed of 24.5 m/s at an angle of 35.5 degrees above the horizontal. The ball hits a wall that is 25.8 meters horizontally from where it started. How high (meters) does the ball hit on the wall?

Answers

6.07 m

Explanation:

Given:

[tex]v_0=24.5\:\text{m/s}[/tex]

[tex]\theta_0 = 35.5°[/tex]

First, we need to find the amount of time it takes to travel a horizontal distance of 25.8 m. We know that

[tex]x = v_{0x}t \Rightarrow t = \dfrac{x}{v_0 \cos \theta_0}[/tex]

A new car manufacturer advertises that their car can go from zero to sixty mph in 8 [s]. This is a description of

Answers

Answer:

Acceleration

Explanation:

The fact that new can go from zero to 60mph in 8 secs is a description of its pick-up or in physics,  it's called acceleration.

Here initial velocity u= 0

final velocity v = 60 mph = 1m/minute.

or v =1609.344/60 = 26.82m/s

and time taken to do so is 8 sec

Acceleration a = (v-u)/t

a = (26.82-0)/8 = 3.35 m/s^2

Therefore, acceleration of the car a = 3.35 m/s^2.

uppose that 3 J of work is needed to stretch a spring from its natural length of 32 cm to a length of 49 cm. (a) How much work (in J) is needed to stretch the spring from 37 cm to 45 cm

make k the subject of the equation

k = 2w/e²................ Equation 2

From the question,

Given: w = 3 J, e = 49-32 = 17 cm = 0.17 m

Substitute these values into equation 2

k = (2×3)/0.17²

k = 6/0.17

k = 35.29 N/m

(a) if the spring from 37 cm to 45 cm,

Then,

w = ke²/2

Given: e = 45-37 = 8 cm = 0.08

w = 35.29(0.08²)/2

Answers

Answer:

ΔE[tex]_{int[/tex],₁ = 977.7 J , Q₁ = 977.7 J and W₁ = 0 J

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

T[tex]_i[/tex] = 300 K, T[tex]_f[/tex] = 412 K, n = 0.7 mol

since helium is monoatomic;

Cv = (3/2)R, Cp = (5/2)R

W₁ = 0 J [ at constant volume or ΔV = 0]

Now for the first cylinder; from the first law of thermodynamics;

Q₁ = ΔE[tex]_{int[/tex],₁ +  W₁

Q₁ = ΔE[tex]_{int[/tex],₁ = n × Cv × ΔT

we substitute  

Q₁ = ΔE[tex]_{int[/tex],₁ = 0.7 × ( 3/2 )8.314 × ( 412 - 300 )

Q₁ = ΔE[tex]_{int[/tex],₁ = 0.7 × 12.471 × 112

Q₁ = ΔE[tex]_{int[/tex],₁ = 977.7 J

Therefore, ΔE[tex]_{int[/tex],₁ = 977.7 J , Q₁ = 977.7 J and W₁ = 0 J

Newspapers often talk about an energy crisis-about running out of certain energy sources in the not-so-distant future. About which kind of energy sources are they talking

Answers

Answer:

Nonrenewable energy

Explanation:

Renewable energy is also known as clean energy and it can be defined as a type of energy that are generated through natural sources or technology-based processes that are replenished constantly. Some examples of these natural sources are water (hydropower), wind (wind energy), sun (solar power), geothermal, biomass, waves etc.

Basically, a renewable energy source is sustainable and as such can not be exhausted.

On the other hand, a non-renewable energy refers to an energy source such as fossil fuels that takes a very long time to be created or their creation happened long ago and isn't likely to happen again e.g uranium.

For example, fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas, come from deep inside the Earth where they formed over millions of years ago.

In this scenario, the kind of energy the newspaper sources are talking about is a nonrenewable energy source because they are capable of being exhausted in the not-so-distant future.

What is Friction?

The resistance to something rolling or moving over another solid object is called friction. Even though frictional forces can be helpful, like the traction needed to walk without slipping, they also present a considerable amount of resistance to motion. About 20% of the engine power in a car is used to combat frictional forces in the moving parts.

The primary cause of friction between metals appears to be the forces of attraction, also known as adhesion, between the contact zones of the surfaces, which are always microscopically unequal. Because of friction caused by the imperfections of the tougher surface rubbing up against the softer surface, these "welded" connections are sheared.

The term "gravitational force" refers to the attraction between masses. The gravitational force increases in size as the masses get bigger (also called the gravity force). As the distance between masses grows, the gravitational force progressively lessens.

Greater gravitational forces will be used to attract heavier things since the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of both interacting objects. Therefore, when two things' respective masses increase, so does their gravitational pull to one another.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Let's start by using Hooke's law to find the force applied to the block

          F = k x

          F = 87.0 0.065

          F = 5.655 N

Now we use the translational equilibrium relation since the block has no acceleration

          ∑ F = 0

          F -fr = 0

          F = fr

           

the expression for the friction force is

          fr = μ N

if we write Newton's second law for the y-axis

          N -W = 0
