a 2kg marble is moving at 3 m/s when it strikes another 4kg marble moving in the opposite direction at -3 m/s. What will be the

velocity of the 4kg marble after the collision of the 2kg marble's new velocity is -4 m/s. Also state the direction of the 2kg marble after they hit.

Momentum is conserved after the collision

Momentum of 2 Kg before collision = 2 * 3 = 6
Momentum of 4 kg before collision = 4 * -3 = -12

so 6 + -12 = 2 * -4 + 4 *x where x is velocity of 4kg marble.

4x - 8 = -6
4x = 2
x = 0.5

Velocity of 4 kg marble is 0.5 m/s after collision

The 2 kg marble will move in the opposite direction to which it was moving before the collision.

Answer:

tex]2.898\times 10^{-7}\ \text{m}[/tex] ultraviolet region

$2.898\times 10^{-10}\ \text{m}$ x-ray region

Explanation:

T = Temperature

b = Constant of proportionality = $2.898\times 10^{-3}\ \text{m K}$

$\lambda$ = Wavelength

$T=10^4\ \text{K}$

From Wein's law we have

$\lambda=\dfrac{b}{T}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\dfrac{2.898\times 10^{-3}}{10^4}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=2.898\times 10^{-7}\ \text{m}$

The wavelength of the radiation will be $2.898\times 10^{-7}\ \text{m}$ and it is in the ultraviolet region.

$T=10^7\ \text{K}$

$\lambda=\dfrac{2.898\times 10^{-3}}{10^7}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=2.898\times 10^{-10}\ \text{m}$

The wavelength of the radiation will be $2.898\times 10^{-10}\ \text{m}$ and it is in the x-ray region.

61. A physics student has a single-occupancy dorm room. The student has a small refrigerator that runs with a current of 3.00 A

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

Part a)

$percentage = 21.3$ %

Part b)

$percentage = 2.13 \times 10^{-5}$ %

Explanation:

As we know that total power used in the room is given as

$P = P_1 + P_2 + P_3 + P_4$

here we have

$P_1 = (110)(3) = 330 W$

$P_2 = 100 W$

$P_3 = 60 W$

$P_4 = 3 W$

$P = 330 + 100 + 60 + 3$

$P = 493 W$

Part a)

Since power supply is at 110 Volt so the current obtained from this supply is given as

$110\times i = 493$

$i = 4.48 A$

now resistance of transmission line

$R = \frac{\rho L}{A}$

$R = \frac{(2.8 \times 10^{-8})(10\times 10^3)}{\pi(4.126\times 10^{-3})^2}$

$R = 5.23 \ohm$

now power loss in line is given as

$P = i^2 R$

$P = (4.48)^2(5.23)$

$P = 105 W$

Now percentage loss is given as

$percentage = \frac{loss}{supply} \times 100$

$percentage = \frac{105}{493} \times 100$

$percentage = 21.3$ %

Part b)

now same power must have been supplied from the supply station at 110 kV, so we have

$110 \times 10^3 (i ) = 493$

$i = 4.48\times 10^{-3} A$

now power loss in line is given as

$P = i^2 R$

$P = (4.48 \times 10^{-3})^2(5.23)$

$P = 1.05 \times 10^{-4} W$

Now percentage loss is given as

$percentage = \frac{loss}{supply} \times 100$

$percentage = \frac{1.05 \times 10^{-4}}{493} \times 100$

$percentage = 2.13 \times 10^{-5}$ %
