Answer: $\dfrac{1}{60} ms^{-1}$

Explanation:

Speed of an object is defined as the ratio of the distance covered by the object to the time taken to cover that distance.

Let $s$ be the speed of the object.

Let $D$ be the distance travelled by the object.

Let $t$ be the time taken by the object.

So, $s=\frac{D}{t}$

s= $\frac{2}{120}=\frac{1}{60}ms^{-1}$

So,the speed of the car is $\frac{1}{60}ms^{-1}$

The diameter of a copper atom is approximately 2.28e-10 m. The massof one mole of copper is 64 grams. Assume that the atoms area

KIM [24]

1) Mass of one copper atom: $1.063\cdot 10^{-22} kg$

2) There are $9.33\cdot 10^{24}$ atoms in the cube

3) Mass of the cubical block: 992 kg

Explanation:

We are told here that the mass of one mole of copper is

$M=64 g$

for

$n=1 mol$ (number of moles)

We also know that the number of atoms inside 1 mole of substance is equal to Avogadro number:

$N_A = 6.022\cdot 10^{23}$

This means that $N_A$ atoms of copper have a mass of M = 64 g. Therefore, we can find the mass of one copper atom by dividing the total mass by the avogadro number:

$m=\frac{M}{N_A}=\frac{64}{6.022\cdot 10^{23}}=1.063\cdot 10^{-22} kg$

We are told that the diameter of a copper atom is

$d=2.28\cdot 10^{-10} m$

We can assume that the atoms are arranged in a cube, and that they are all attached to each other; so the side of the cube can be written as size of one atom multiplied by the number of atom per side:

$L=Nd$

where

N is the number of atoms (rows) in one side of the cube

Since the side of the cube is

L = 4.8 cm = 0.048 m

We find N:

$N=\frac{L}{d}=\frac{0.048}{2.28\cdot 10^{-10}}=2.11\cdot 10^8$

This is the number of atom rows per side; therefore, the total number of atoms in the cube is

$N^3=(2.11\cdot 10^8)^3=9.33\cdot 10^{24}$

The total mass of the cubical block of copper will be given by the mass of one atom of copper multiplied by the total number of atoms, so:

$M= N^3 m$

where:

$N^3 = 9.33\cdot 10^{24}$ is the number of atoms in the cube

$m=1.063\cdot 10^{-22} kg$ is the mass of one atom

Therefore, substituting, we find:

$M=(9.33\cdot 10^{24})(1.063\cdot 10^{-22})=992 kg$

So, the mass of the cubical block is 992 kg.

A student carried out an experiment adding different weights to a spring and recording the results. Look at the table of results

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

0.25 m.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the spring constant of the spring.

From the diagram, we shall used any of the weight with the corresponding extention to determine the spring constant. This is illustrated below:

Force (F) = 0.1 N

Extention (e) = 0.125 m

Spring constant (K) =?

F = Ke

0.1 = K x 0.125

Divide both side by 0.125

K = 0.1/0.125

K = 0.8 N/m

Therefore, the force constant, K of spring is 0.8 N/m

Now, we can obtain the number in gap 1 in the diagram above as follow:

Force (F) = 0.2 N

Spring constant (K) = 0.8 N/m

Extention (e) =..?

F = Ke

0.2 = 0.8 x e

Divide both side by 0.8

e = 0.2/0.8

e = 0.25 m

Therefore, the number that will complete gap 1is 0.25 m.

An L-R-C series circuit, R = 160 Ω , L = 0.790 H , and C = 1.30×10−2 μF . The source has a voltage amplitude of 140 V and a freq

wolverine [178]

Answer: a) 1 b) 61 W c) 61 W

Explanation:

a) The Power Factor (also known as cos φ), is defined by the difference in phase between current and voltage, in a RLC series circuit, and is expressed as follows:

cos φ = R / Z = R / $\sqrt{(R)^{2} + (Xl -Xc)^{2} }$

In resonance, XL =XC, so the circuit behaves like it were purely resistive, so Z=R.

Replacing in the expression for power factor, we have:

cos φ = R/Z = R/R = 1

This means that in resonance, current and voltage are in phase each other.

b) The average power delivered by the source, in resonance, is simply the power dissipated at the resistance R, as follows:

Pavg = V² rms / R = V₀² / √2 / R = 61 W

c) If the circuit remains in resonance, the average power , which does not depends on frequency provided this condition remains, keeps the same, i.e. , 61 W.
