The water in the plumbing in a house is at a gauge pressure of 300,000 pa. What force does this cause on the top of the tank ins

Answer:

60 000 N

Explanation:

1 pa = 1 N/m^2

you have 300 000 of these = 300 000 N /m^2

but only an area of .2 m^2

300 000 N / m^2 * .2 m^2 = 60 000 N

You have a rod with a length of 146.4 cm. You prop up one end on a brick which is 3.8 cm thick. Your uncertainty in measuring th

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

$\partial \theta = 0.003$

Explanation:

we know that

$sin\theta = \frac{3.8}{146.4}$

$\theta = sin^{-1} \frac{3.8}{146.4}$

$\theta = 1.484°$

$\theta = 1.484° *\frac{\pi}{180} = 0.0259 radians$

as we see that $sin\theta = \theta$

relative error $\frac{\partial \theta}{\theta} = \frac{\partial X}{X_1} +\frac{\partial X}{X_2}$

Where X_1 IS HEIGHT OF ROCK

$X_2$ IS THE HEIGHT OF ROAD

$\partial X$ = uncertainity in measuring distance

$\partial X = 0.05$

Putting all value to get uncertainity in angle

$\frac{\partial \theta}{0.0259} = \frac{0.05}{3.8} +\frac{0.05}{146.4}$

solving for $\partial \theta$ we get

$\partial \theta = 0.003$

How does Lenz's Law illustrate the concept that "you can't get

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

When there is a change in magnetic flux linkage through a loop of wire, an electromotive force is induced in the loop, according to the Faraday-Newmann-Lenz Law:

$\epsilon=-\frac{N\Delta \Phi}{\Delta t}$

where

N is the number of turns in the loop

$\Delta \Phi$ is the change in magnetic flux through the loop

$\Delta t$ is the time elapsed

The negative sign in the formula represents Lenz's Law, and tells us about the direction of the electromotive force.

In fact, the negative sign means that the direction of the induced emf is such that to oppose to the change in the magnetic flux that originated the induced emf.

This is a consequence of the law of conservation of energy: no energy can be created out of nowhere. In fact, when the emf is induced in the loop, electrical energy appears in the circuit; however, this electric energy cannot come out of nowhere. Instead, it is just "created" from the transformation of some other form of energy (for instance, the mechanical energy that is used to move the loop in the magnetic field, and changing its magnetic flux).

The negative sign in Lenz's Law tells exactly this: the direction of the induced emf is such that it opposes the initial change in magnetic flux that generated the induced emf, so that overall the total energy is conserved.

Consider the hydrogen atom. How does the energy difference between adjacent orbit radii change as the principal quantum number i

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

the energy difference between adjacent levels decreases as the quantum number increases

Explanation:

The energy levels of the hydrogen atom are given by the following formula:

$E=-E_0 \frac{1}{n^2}$

where

$E_0 = 13.6 eV$ is a constant

n is the level number

We can write therefore the energy difference between adjacent levels as

$\Delta E=-13.6 eV (\frac{1}{n^2}-\frac{1}{(n+1)^2})$

We see that this difference decreases as the level number (n) increases. For example, the difference between the levels n=1 and n=2 is

$\Delta E=-13.6 eV(\frac{1}{1^2}-\frac{1}{2^2})=-13.6 eV(1-\frac{1}{4})=-13.6 eV(\frac{3}{4})=-10.2 eV$

While the difference between the levels n=2 and n=3 is

$\Delta E=-13.6 eV(\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{3^2})=-13.6 eV(\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{9})=-13.6 eV(\frac{5}{36})=-1.9 eV$

And so on.

So, the energy difference between adjacent levels decreases as the quantum number increases.

At a rock concert, the sound intensity 1.0 m in front of the bank of loudspeakers is 0.10 W/m². A fan is 30 m from the loudspeak

Klio2033 [76]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the Area, the power and the proportionality relationships between intensity and distance.

The expression for sound power is,

$P = AI$

Here,

A = Area

I = Intensity

P = Power

At the same time the area can be written as,

$A = \frac{\pi d^2}{4}$

Now the intensity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source, then

$I \propto \frac{1}{r^2}$

The expression for the intensity at different distance is

$\frac{I_1}{I_2}= \frac{r^2_2}{r_1^2}$

Here,

$I_1$ = Intensity at distance 1

$I_2$ = Intensity at distance 2

$r_1$ = Distance 1 from light source

$r_2$ = Distance 2 from the light source

If we rearrange the expression to find the intensity at second position we have,

$I_2 = I_1 (\frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2})$

If we replace with our values at this equation we have,

$I_2 = (0.10W/m^2)(\frac{1.0m^2}{30.0m^2})$

$I_2 = 1.11*10^{-4} W/m^2$

Now using the equation to find the area we have that

$A = \frac{\pi (8.4*10^{-3}m)^2}{4}$

$A = 5.5*10^{-5}m^2$

Finally with the intensity and the area we can find the sound power, which is

$P = AI$

$P = (5.5*10^{-5}m^2)(1.11*10^{-4}W/m^2)$

$P = 6.1*10^{-9}J/s$

Power is defined as the quantity of Energy per second, then

$E = 6.1*10^{-9}J$
