Atmosphere

Atmospheric gas from prehistoric eras is found trapped in glaciers in the form of bubbles. These gas bubbles are the basis of studying ice cores as they provide us with accurate estimates of the conditions of past climates. The bubbles allow us to determine the composition of atmospheric air, such as the carbon dioxide and methane concentrations, as well as allow us to determine air temperatures in the past.

An electron and a second particle both move in circles perpendicular to a uniformmagnetic field. The mass of the second particle

Katarina [22]

Answer:

The change on the second particle is $2.93\times 10^{-16}\ C$ .

Explanation:

The period of revolution of the particle in the magnetic field is given by the formula as follows :

$T=\dfrac{2\pi m}{Bq}$

It is given that the magnetic field is uniform. The mass of the second particle is the same as that of a proton but thecharge of this particle is different from that of a proton.

$m_s=m_p$

If both particles take the same amount of time to go once around their respective circles. So,

$T_e=T_s\\\\\dfrac{2\pi m_e}{Bq_e}=\dfrac{2\pi m_s}{Bq_s}\\\\\dfrac{m_e}{q_e}=\dfrac{m_p}{q_s}\\\\q_s=\dfrac{m_pq_e}{m_e}\\\\q_s=\dfrac{1.67\times 10^{-27}\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{9.11\times 10^{-31}}\\\\q_s=2.93\times 10^{-16}\ C$

So, the change on the second particle is $2.93\times 10^{-16}\ C$ .

A container with rigid walls is filled with 4.0 mol of air with Cv=2.5R Then the temperature is increased from 17 degrees C to 3

galina1969 [7]

Explanation:

Internal energy = heat + work

U = Q + W

Since there's no change in volume (rigid walls), W = 0.

U = Q

U = n Cᵥ ΔT

U = (4.0 mol) (2.5 × 8.314 J/mol/K) (354 C − 17 C)

U = 28,000 J

A bullet of mass m=26g is fired into a wooden block of mass M=4.7kg. The block is attached to a string of length 1.5m. The bulle

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

u = 449 m/s

Explanation:

Given,

Mass of the bullet, m = 26 g

Mass of the wooden block,M = 4.7 Kg

height of the block,h = 0.31 m

initial speed of the block, u = ?

Using conservation of energy

$(M+ m)gh = \dfrac{1}{2}(M+m)v^2$

$gh = \dfrac{1}{2}v^2$

$v=\sqrt{2gh}$

$v=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 0.31}$

v = 2.47 m/s

Now, using conservation of momentum to calculate the speed of the bullet.

m u + M u' = (M+m)v

m u = (M+m)v

0.026 x u = (4.7+0.026) x 2.47

u = 449 m/s

Hence, the speed of the bullet is equal to 449 m/s.
