How long (in ns) does it take light to travel 1.0 m in vacuum?

1 answer:

6 0

If light travels 290,000,000 meters in 1 second, simply divide 1 second by 290,000,000 to find the time it takes to travel 1 meter.

1 / 290,000,000 = 0.000000003448 seconds (or 3.5 nano seconds)

What conditions are typcial of the soil the deeper we dig into it?

Tems11 [23]

When we first dig into soil, it's nice and soft.( Depending on what soil it is; usually topsoil)

But when we go deeper into it, there are rocks and the soil is harder. There is bedrock at the bottom, subsoil in the middle, and topsoil at the top, which is where we walk.

In which case does viscosity play a dominant role? Case A: a typical bacterium (size ~ 1 mm1 mm and velocity ~ 20 mm/s20 mm/s) i

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Case A

Explanation:

given,

size of bacteria = 1 mm x 1 mm

velocity = 20 mm/s

size of the swimmer = 1.5 m x 1.5 m

velocity of swimmer = 3 m/s

Viscous force

$F = \eta A \dfrac{dv}{dx}$

for the bacteria

$F = \eta \times 10^{-6}\times 20\times 10^{-3}$

$F =2\times 10^{-8} \eta\ N$

for the swimmer

$F = \eta \times 1.5^2\times 3$

$F =6.75 \eta\ N$

from the above force calculation

In case B inertial force that represent mass is more than the inertial force in case of bacteria.

Viscous force is dominant in case of bacteria.

So, In Case A viscous force will be dominant.

A 10 cm diameter pulley is used to lift a bucket of cement weighing 400 N. How much force must be applied to the rope to lift th

$\large \bold {ANSWER}$

Considering that the pulley is fixed, the force applied should be equal to the weight of the object - of 400N.

$\large \bold {EXPLANATION}$

Pulleys or pulleys are mechanical tools used to assist in the movement of objects and bodies. There are two types of pulleys: fixed and movable. While the fixed pulley changes the direction of force, the moving pulley helps to decrease the force needed to move the object or body in question.

As the statement only tells us a pulley, we must consider that it is fixed, because generally when it is mobile, this information is highlighted in the question.

In this way, a fixed pulley only changes the direction of the applied force. Thus, the force must have the same magnitude as the weight of the object to be moved. If the bucket weighs 400N, the force applied to the pulley must be 400N.

Therefore, having a fixed pulley, the force applied must be equal to the weight of the object, and will be 400N.
