The tension in the upper rope is determined as 50.53 N.

<h3>Tension in the upper rope</h3>

The tension in the upper rope is calculated as follows;

T(u) = T(d)+ mg

where;

T(u) is tension in upper rope
T(d) is tension in lower rope

T(u) = 12.8 N + 3.85(9.8)

T(u) = 50.53 N

Thus, the tension in the upper rope is determined as 50.53 N.

A certain atom has atomic number Z = 25 and atomic mass number A = 52. a. What is the approximate radius of the nucleus of this

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

a)The approximate radius of the nucleus of this atom is 4.656 fermi.

b) The electrostatic force of repulsion between two protons on opposite sides of the diameter of the nucleus is 2.6527

Explanation:

$r=r_o\times A^{\frac{1}{3}}$

$r_o=1.25 \times 10^{-15} m$ = Constant for all nuclei

r = Radius of the nucleus

A = Number of nucleons

a) Given atomic number of an element = 25

Atomic mass or nucleon number = 52

$r=1.25 \times 10^{-15} m\times (52)^{\frac{1}{3}}$

$r=4.6656\times 10^{-15} m=4.6656 fm$

The approximate radius of the nucleus of this atom is 4.656 fermi.

b) $F=k\times \frac{q_1q_2}{a^2}$

k= $9\times 10^9 N m^2/C^2$ = Coulombs constant

$q_1,q_2$ = charges kept at distance 'a' from each other

F = electrostatic force between charges

$q_1=+1.602\times 10^{-19} C$

$q_2=+1.602\times 10^{-19} C$

Force of repulsion between two protons on opposite sides of the diameter

$a=2\times r=2\times 4.6656\times 10^{-15} m=9.3312\times 10^{-15} m$

$F=9\times 10^9 N m^2/C^2\times \frac{(+1.602\times 10^{-19} C)\times (+1.602\times 10^{-19} C)}{(9.3312\times 10^{-15} m)^2}$

$F=2.6527 N$

The electrostatic force of repulsion between two protons on opposite sides of the diameter of the nucleus is 2.6527

A 125kg bumper car going 12m/s hits a 235kg bumper car going -13m/s.if the first car bounces back at -12.5m/s what is the veloci

vovikov84 [41]

According to the law of conservation of momentum:

$m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2}=m_{1}v_{1}'+m_{2}v_{2}'$

m1 = mass of first object
m2 = mass of second object
v1 = Velocity of the first object before the collision
v2 = Velocity of the second object before the collision
v'1 = Velocity of the first object after the collision
v'2 = Velocity of the second object after the collision

Now how do you solve for the velocity of the second car after the collision? First thing you do is get your given and fill in what you know in the equation and solve for what you do not know.

m1 = 125 kg v1 = 12m/s v'1 = -12.5m/s
m2 = 235kg v2 = -13m/s v'2 = ?

$m_{1}v_{1}+m_{2}v_{2}=m_{1}v_{1}'+m_{2}v_{2}'$
$(125kg)(12m/s)+(235kg)(-13m/s)=(125kg)(-12.5m/s)+(235kg)(v_{2}'$
$1,500kg.m/s+(-3055kg.m/s)=(-1562.5kg.m/s)+(235kg)(v_{2}')$
$-1,555kg.m/s=(-1562.5kg.m/s)+(235kg)(v_{2}')$

Transpose everything on the side of the unknown to isolate the unknown. Do not forget to do the opposite operation.

$-1,555kg.m/s + 1562.5kg.m/s=(235kg)(v_{2}')$
$7.5kg.m/s=(235kg)(v_{2}')$
$(7.5kg.m/s)/(235kg)=(v_{2}')$
$0.03m/s=(v_{2}')$

The velocity of the 2nd car after the collision is 0.03m/s.

the carnot cycle attempts to model the most efficient possible process by avoiding what? adiabatic processes isothermal processe

kobusy [5.1K]

The carnot cycle attempts to model the most efficient possible process by avoiding irreversible processes.

In essence, the Carnot cycle is a reversible cycle made up of four other reversible processes. A reversible process is one that can be thought of as consisting of a sequence of equilibrium stages because it is carried out endlessly slowly.

Essentially, this means that any reversible cycle can be performed in reverse and that the amount of work or heat exchanged along the forward and backward pathways is the same.

It goes without saying that such reversible processes are not possible because they would take an unlimited amount of time. Therefore, the Carnot Engine is described as an idealized heat engine that uses the Carnot Cycle, a reversible cycle.
