In order to sail through the frozen Arctic Ocean, the most powerful icebreaker ever built was constructed in the former Soviet U

nion. At the heart of the ship’s power plant is a nuclear reactor with a power output of 5.60* 10^7 W. How long will it take for this power plant to do 5.35* 10^10 J of work?

Answer:

955.36 seconds ≈ 16 minutes

Explanation:

Power(P) is the rate of doing work(W)

That is, P = W/t, where t is the time.

multipying both sides with 't' and dividing with 'P', we get: t=W/P

Here, W = 5.35 x 10^10 J and P = 5.6 x 10^7 W ( 1 W = 1 J/s).

Therefore , on dividing W with P, we get 955.36 seconds.

A ball is rolled at a velocity of 25 m/sec. after 13.5 seconds, it comes to a stop . What is the acceleration of the ball?
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is a = -1.85 m/s² the acceleration is negative because it is coming to stop.

Explanation:

Data

vo = 25 m/s

t = 13.5 s

a= ?

vf = 0 m/s

Formula

vf = vo + at

solve for a

a = (vf - vo)/t

Substitution

a = (0 - 25) / 13.5

Simplification

a = -25/13.5

Result

a = -1.85 m/s²

In the shadow of a tree with a dense, leafy canopy, one sees a number of light spots. Surprisingly, they all appear to be circul
Bad White [126]

The characteristics of the diffraction phenomenon allow to find the result for the shape of the points of light that you pass the tree is:

  • The shape of the dots is circular because it is in the range of far-field diffraction.

Diffraction is the phenomenon where the undulatory part of the light becomes evident, it is the interference of the waves that make up each ray of light, for this phenomenon to occur it must be fulfilled that the wavelength is of the order of the space where pass the light.

In the leafy tree it has many leaves, but there are spaces between them, some of these spaces are small and it fulfills the diffraction condition, therefore we see bright spots and not a continuous shadow.

Diffraction can be classified depending on the distance to the observer:

  • Near field or fresnel. In this case the distance from the observer is small and we can see the shape of the object that creates the diffraction.
  • Far field or Fraunhoger. In this case the distance between the obstacle (leaves) and the person is great, here the information on the shape of things is lost and we have two observable forms. Lines for the case of slits and circles for the case of objects with a closed shape.

In this case, the distance from the leaves to the observer is large, therefore we are in the case of far-field diffraction and since the edge of the leaves that forms the diffraction is closed, the observable shape is a circle.

In conclusion using the characteristics of the diffraction phenomenon we can find the result for the shape of the points of light that pass the tree is:

  • The shape of the dots is circular because it is in the range of far-field diffraction.

A pair of toy freight cars, one twice the mass of the other, fly apart when a compressed spring that joins them is released. Acc
saul85 [17]

Answer:

greater acceleration is experienced by the car with lower mass

Explanation:

Since both the toys are connected by same spring so the force due to spring on both the toys will be same and it is given as

F = kx

now we know by Newton's II law

F = ma

so here we have

a = \frac{F}{m}

here we have same force on both the blocks

so acceleration will be more if mass is less

so greater acceleration is experienced by the car with lower mass

A transformer is designed to provide 6 V from a 150 V supply. If the primary coil has 1000 turns, how many turns does the second
zavuch27 [327]
The applicable relationship is N1/N2 = V1/V2, meaning the ratio of primary voltage to secondary voltage is equal to the ratio of primary turns to secondary turns.

Here N1 = 1000, V1 = 250, V2 = 400V and N2 = TBD.

Rewriting the above relationship, N2 = N1 V2/V1 = 1000 x 400/250 = 1600 turns.
