Answer:

a) diffraction

Explanation:

Diffraction occurs when waves pass through small openings, around obstacles or sharp edges.When an opaque object is between the point of light and a screen, the border between the shaded and illuminated regions on the screen is not defined. A careful inspection of the scrubber shows that a small amount of light is diverted to the shaded region. The region outside the shadow contains bright and dark altered bands, where the intensity of the first band is brighter than the region of uniform illumination.

A boxer punches a sheet of paper in midair and brings it from rest up to a speed of 30 m/s in 0.060 s .

zimovet [89]

Answer:

Force exerted, F = 1.5 N

Explanation:

It is given that, a boxer punches a sheet of paper in midair and brings it from rest up to a speed of 30 m/s in 0.060 s.

i.e. u = 0

v = 30 m/s

Time taken, t = 0.06 s

Mass of the paper, m = 0.003 kg

We need to find the force the boxer exert on it. The force can be calculated using second law of motion as :

$F=m\times a$

$F=m\times (\dfrac{v-u}{t})$

$F=0.003\times (\dfrac{30}{0.06})$

F = 1.5 N

So, the force the boxer exert on the paper is 1.5 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

Atoms found in nature are either stable or unstable. ... An atom is unstable (radioactive) if these forces are unbalanced; if the nucleus has an excess of internal energy. Instability of an atom's nucleus may result from an excess of either neutrons or protons

Help me find the acceleration

ANEK [815]

a = 3.09 m/s²

<h3>Explanation</h3>

This question doesn't tell anything about how long it took for the car to go through 105 meters. As a result, the <em>timeless </em>suvat equation is likely what you need for this question.

In the <em>timeless</em> suvat equation,

$a = \dfrac{v^2 - u^2}{2\; x}$

where

$a$ is the acceleration of the car;
$v$ is the <em>final</em> velocity of the car;
$u$ is the <em>initial</em> velocity of the car; and
$x$ is the displacement of the car.

Note that <em>v</em> and <em>u</em> are velocities. Make sure that you include their signs in the calculation.

In this question,

$a$ is the unknown;
$v = -10.9 \; \text{m} \cdot \text{s}^{-2}$ ;
$u = -27.7 \; \text{m} \cdot \text{s}^{-2}$ ; and
$x = - 105 \; \text{m}$ .

Apply the <em>timeless</em> suvat equation:

$a = \dfrac{v^{2} - u^{2}}{2\; x}\\\phantom{a} = \dfrac{(-10.9)^{2} - (-27.7)^{2}}{2 \times (-105)}\\\phantom{a} = 3.09 \; \text{m} \cdot \text{s}^{-2}$ .

The value of $a$ is greater than zero, which is reasonable. Velocity of the car is negative, meaning that the car is moving backward. The car now moves to the back at a slower speed. Effectively it accelerates to the front. Its acceleration shall thus be positive.

A single Oreo cookie provides 53 kcal of energy. An athlete does an exercise that involves repeatedly lifting (without accelerat

Sever21 [200]

Answer:

Approximately $325$ (rounded down,) assuming that $g = 9.81\; {\rm N \cdot kg^{-1}}$ .

The number of repetitions would increase if efficiency increases.

Explanation:

Ensure that all quantities involved are in standard units:

Energy from the cookie (should be in joules, ${\rm J}$ ):

$\begin{aligned} & 53\; {\rm kCal} \times \frac{1\; {\rm kJ}}{4.184\; {\rm kCal}} \times \frac{1000\; {\rm J}}{1\; {\rm kJ}} \approx 2.551 \times 10^{5}\; {\rm J} \end{aligned}$ .

Height of the weight (should be in meters, ${\rm m}$ ):

$\begin{aligned} h &= 2\; {\rm dm} \times \frac{1\; {\rm m}}{10\; {\rm dm}} = 0.2\; {\rm m}\end{aligned}$ .

Energy required to lift the weight by $\Delta h = 0.2\; {\rm m}$ without acceleration:

$\begin{aligned} W &= m\, g\, \Delta h \\ &= 100\; {\rm kg} \times 9.81\; {\rm N \cdot kg^{-1}} \times 0.2\; {\rm m} \\ &= 196\; {\rm N \cdot m} \\ &= 196\; {\rm J} \end{aligned}$ .

At an efficiency of $0.25$ , the actual amount of energy required to raise this weight to that height would be:

$\begin{aligned} \text{Energy Input} &= \frac{\text{Useful Work Output}}{\text{Efficiency}} \\ &= \frac{196\; {\rm J}}{0.25} \\ &=784\; {\rm J}\end{aligned}$ .

Divide $2.551 \times 10^{5}\; {\rm J}$ by $784\; {\rm J}$ to find the number of times this weight could be lifted up within that energy budget:

$\begin{aligned} \frac{2.551 \times 10^{5}\; {\rm J}}{784\; {\rm J}} &\approx 325 \end{aligned}$ .

Increasing the efficiency (the denominator) would reduce the amount of energy input required to achieve the same amount of useful work. Thus, the same energy budget would allow this weight to be lifted up for more times.
