A butcher has a beam balance and masses 0.5kg and 2kg.How would he measure 1.5kg of meat on the balance at once

Physics
1 answer:
LekaFEV [45]3 years ago
6 0

Answer and Explanation:

  • The butcher will balance the meat and the 0.5 kg mass on one side of the beam balance and 2 kg mass on the other side of the beam balance.
  • By so doing, when the beam balances then the amount of meat measured will be exactly 1.5 kg as required. Since the 1.5 kg meat and 0.5 kg mass is equivalent to the 2 kg on the other side of the beam balance.

What is the longest wavelength of radiation with enough energy to break carbon-carbon bonds?
iogann1982 [59]

The longest wavelength of radiation used to break carbon-carbon bonds is 344 nm.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The longest wavelength of radiation can also be stated as the minimum radiation frequency required to cut carbon-carbon bond should be equal to the threshold energy of the carbon-carbon bonds.

The threshold energy will be equal to the binding energy of the carbon-carbon bonds. As it is known that carbon-carbon bonds exhibit a binding energy of 348 kJ/mole, the threshold energy to break it, is determined as followed.

First, we have to convert the energy from kJ/mol to J, i.e., energy for the carbon-carbon molecules,

\text { Energy } = \frac{348 \mathrm{KJ} / \mathrm{mol}}{6.023 \times 10^{23} \text { photons }} \times 1 \text { mole } \times 1000 = 57.77 \times 10^{-20} = 5.78 \times 10^{-19} J

As,

         E=h v=\frac{h c}{\lambda}

So,

\lambda=\frac{h c}{E}=\frac{6.626 \times 10^{-34} \times 3 * 10^{8}}{5.78 \times 10^{-19}}=3.44 \times 10^{-7}

Thus, \lambda=344 \mathrm{nm} is the longest wavelength of radiation used to break carbon-carbon bonds.

4. A light string is attatched to a heavy rope, and the whole thing is pulled tight. A wave is sent along the light string. When
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

The correct answer to the question is (A)

When it hits the heavy rope, compared to the wave on the string, the wave that propagates along the rope has the same (A) frequency

Explanation:

The speed of a wave in a string is dependent on the square root of the tension ad inversely proportional  to the square root of the linear density of the string. Generally, the speed of a wave through a spring is dependent on the elastic and inertia properties of the string

v = \sqrt{ \frac{T}{\mu } } =  \sqrt{ \frac{T}{m/L } }

Therefore if the linear density of the heavy rope is four times that of light rope the velocity is halved and since

v = f×λ therefore  v/2 = f×λ/2

Therefore the wavelength is halved, however the frequency remains the same as continuity requires the frequency of the incident pulse vibration to be transmitted to the denser medium for the wave to continue as the wave is due to vibrating particles from a source for example
