Answer:

915 Hz

Explanation:

The observed frequency from a sound source is given as

f₀ = f [(v + v₀)/(v+vₛ)]

where

f₀ = observed frequency of the sound by the observer = ?

f = actual frequency of the sound wave = 983 Hz

v = actual velocity of the sound waves = 343 m/s

vₛ = velocity of the source of the sound waves = 55.9 m/s

v₀ = velocity of the observer = 28.4 m/s

f₀ = 983 [(343+28.4)/(343+55.9)]

f₀ = 915.2 Hz = 915 Hz

A 60-W, 120-V light bulb and a 200-W, 120-V light bulb are connected in series across a 240-V line. Assume that the resistance o

gulaghasi [49]

A. 0.77 A

Using the relationship:

$P=\frac{V^2}{R}$

where P is the power, V is the voltage, and R the resistance, we can find the resistance of each bulb.

For the first light bulb, P = 60 W and V = 120 V, so the resistance is

$R_1=\frac{V^2}{P}=\frac{(120 V)^2}{60 W}=240 \Omega$

For the second light bulb, P = 200 W and V = 120 V, so the resistance is

$R_1=\frac{V^2}{P}=\frac{(120 V)^2}{200 W}=72 \Omega$

The two light bulbs are connected in series, so their equivalent resistance is

$R=R_1 + R_2 = 240 \Omega + 72 \Omega =312 \Omega$

The two light bulbs are connected to a voltage of

V = 240 V

So we can find the current through the two bulbs by using Ohm's law:

$I=\frac{V}{R}=\frac{240 V}{312 \Omega}=0.77 A$

B. 142.3 W

The power dissipated in the first bulb is given by:

$P_1=I^2 R_1$

where

I = 0.77 A is the current

$R_1 = 240 \Omega$ is the resistance of the bulb

Substituting numbers, we get

$P_1 = (0.77 A)^2 (240 \Omega)=142.3 W$

C. 42.7 W

The power dissipated in the second bulb is given by:

$P_2=I^2 R_2$

where

I = 0.77 A is the current

$R_2 = 72 \Omega$ is the resistance of the bulb

Substituting numbers, we get

$P_2 = (0.77 A)^2 (72 \Omega)=42.7 W$

D. The 60-W bulb burns out very quickly

The power dissipated by the resistance of each light bulb is equal to:

$P=\frac{E}{t}$

where

E is the amount of energy dissipated

t is the time interval

From part B and C we see that the 60 W bulb dissipates more power (142.3 W) than the 200-W bulb (42.7 W). This means that the first bulb dissipates energy faster than the second bulb, so it also burns out faster.

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:

1)

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:

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

2)

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

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

3)

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.
