A particle passes through the point P=(−3,1,0)P=(−3,1,0) at time t=3t=3, moving with constant velocity v⃗ =⟨5,3,−2⟩v→=⟨5,3,−2⟩.
eimsori [14]

Answer:

The parametric equation for the position of the particle is (-18+5t,-8+3t,6-2t).

Explanation:

Given that,

The point is

P=(-3,1,0)

Time t = 3

Velocity v=(5,3,-2)

We need to calculate the parametric equation for the position of the particle

Using parametric equation for position

r(t)=r_{0}+v(t)t....(I)

at t = 3,

P=r(t)

Put the value into the formula

(-3,1,0)=r_{0}+(5,3,-2)\times3

(-3,1,0)=r_{0}+(15,9,-6)

r_{0}=(-18,-8,6)

Put the value of r₀ in equation (I)

r(t)=(-18,-8,6)+(5,3,-2)t

r(t)=(-18+5t,-8+3t,6-2t)

Hence, The parametric equation for the position of the particle is (-18+5t,-8+3t,6-2t).

A nail driven into a board increases in temperature.
denis23 [38]

Answer:

ΔT = 40.91 °C

Explanation:

First we find the kinetic energy of one hit to the nail:

K.E = (1/2)mv²

where,

K.E = Kinetic energy = ?

m = mass of hammer = 1.6 kg

v = speed of hammer = 7.7 m/s

Therefore,

K.E = (1/2)(1.6 kg)(7.7 m/s)²

K.E = 47.432 J

Now, for 10 hits:

K.E = (10)(47.432 J)

K.E = 474.32 J

Now, we calculate the heat energy transferred (Q) to the nail. As, it is the 59% of K.E. Therefore,

Q = (0.59)K.E

Q = (0.59)(474.32 J)

Q = 279.84 J

The change in energy of nail is given as:

Q = mCΔT

where,

m = mass of nail = 7.6 g = 0.0076 kg

C = specific heat capacity of aluminum = 900 J/kg.°C

ΔT = Increase in temperature = ?

Therefore,

279.84 J = (0.0076 kg)(900 J/kg.°C)ΔT

ΔT = (279.84 J)/(6.84 J/°C)

<u>ΔT = 40.91 °C</u>

Help fast I want the correct answer please does spectral diffusion cause light to scatter ​
LiRa [457]

Answer: No

Explanation:

Whenever light travelling on a straight line encounters obstruction, it diffracts and scatter.

Scattering of light occurs when light passes through a rough path or a diffused surface.

But in case of spectral diffusion, which is the fluctuation in spectroscopy as a result of time dependent frequency shifts.

Spectral diffusion occurs in particular molecules initiated by excessive excitation energy.

Fluctuation in frequency does not mean diffraction of light or particles

Therefore, spectral diffusion does not cause light to scatter.
