Why can an object still be seen when it is at absolute zero?

Physics

zavuch27 [327]3 years ago

<span>As the temperature goes down, the chaotic motion (velocity) of atoms start decreasing. If the temperature hits the absolute zero (which, in reality, is impossible to achieve), the atoms of the body would freeze, making the body still and stiff. One thing to note here is that the atoms do not get destroyed when the temperature reaches the absolute zero. That is the reason why the object can still be seen when it is at absolute zero.</span>

A torque of 36.5 N · m is applied to an initially motionless wheel which rotates around a fixed axis. This torque is the result
vivado [14]

Answer:

21.6\ \text{kg m}^2

3.672\ \text{Nm}

54.66\ \text{revolutions}

Explanation:

\tau = Torque = 36.5 Nm

\omega_i = Initial angular velocity = 0

\omega_f = Final angular velocity = 10.3 rad/s

t = Time = 6.1 s

I = Moment of inertia

From the kinematic equations of linear motion we have

\omega_f=\omega_i+\alpha_1 t\\\Rightarrow \alpha_1=\dfrac{\omega_f-\omega_i}{t}\\\Rightarrow \alpha_1=\dfrac{10.3-0}{6.1}\\\Rightarrow \alpha_1=1.69\ \text{rad/s}^2

Torque is given by

\tau=I\alpha_1\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{\tau}{\alpha_1}\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{36.5}{1.69}\\\Rightarrow I=21.6\ \text{kg m}^2

The wheel's moment of inertia is 21.6\ \text{kg m}^2

t = 60.6 s

\omega_i = 10.3 rad/s

\omega_f = 0

\alpha_2=\dfrac{0-10.3}{60.6}\\\Rightarrow \alpha_1=-0.17\ \text{rad/s}^2

Frictional torque is given by

\tau_f=I\alpha_2\\\Rightarrow \tau_f=21.6\times -0.17\\\Rightarrow \tau=-3.672\ \text{Nm}

The magnitude of the torque caused by friction is 3.672\ \text{Nm}

Speeding up

\theta_1=0\times t+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1.69\times 6.1^2\\\Rightarrow \theta_1=31.44\ \text{rad}

Slowing down

\theta_2=10.3\times 60.6+\dfrac{1}{2}\times (-0.17)\times 60.6^2\\\Rightarrow \theta_2=312.03\ \text{rad}

Total number of revolutions

\theta=\theta_1+\theta_2\\\Rightarrow \theta=31.44+312.03=343.47\ \text{rad}

\dfrac{343.47}{2\pi}=54.66\ \text{revolutions}

The total number of revolutions the wheel goes through is 54.66\ \text{revolutions}.

Which substances are inorganic? Check all that apply.
bezimeni [28]

The major characteristic an organic compound has which an inorganic

compound doesn't  have is the presence of carbon atoms in the molecule.

This helps us to differentiate the compounds into their respective divisions.

Inorganic compounds

  • K2CO3
  • Fe3O4

Organic compounds

  • C6H12O6
  • C4H10
  • C27H46O

We can observe that inorganic compounds lack carbon atoms which makes

the answer valid.

The resistivity of gold is at room temperature. A gold wire that is 0.9 mm in diameter and 14 cm long carries a current of 940 m
IgorC [24]

Answer:

0.0360531138247 V/m

Explanation:

\rho = Resistivity of gold = 2.44\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega .m (General value)

I = Current = 940 mA

d = Diameter = 0.9 mm

A = Area = \dfrac{\pi}{4}d^2

E = Electric field

Resistivity is given by

\rho=\dfrac{EA}{I}\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{\rho I}{A}\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{2.44\times 10^{-8}\times 940\times 10^{-3}}{\dfrac{\pi}{4}(0.9\times 10^{-3})^2}\\\Rightarrow E=0.0360531138247\ V/m

The  electric field in the wire is 0.0360531138247 V/m
