Answer:

54 km/h

Explanation:

given,

speed of the biker = 36 Km/h

time = 10 s

acceleration = 0.5 m/s²

speed at which it crosses the finish line  = ?

v = 36 x 0.278 = 10 m/s

using equation of motion

v = u + a t

v = 10 + 0.5 x 10

v = 15 m/s

v = 15 x 3.6 = 54 km/hr

speed at which the biker crosses the finish line is equal to 54 km/h

A 32-n force acts on a small mass in the positive x-direction. a 26-n force also acts on it in the negative x-direction. what is
motikmotik

Equilibrium force is the force that will keep the small mass in place, hence no movement must be made. So we know that 32 N of force is acted towards the positive direction so +32 N. Which is counteracted by 26 N force so:

32 N – 26 N = 6 N (positive)

Since positive 6 is left, therefore this must be acted by an equilibrant negative 6 N.

 

Answer:

<span>- 6 N </span>

A velocity selector in a mass spectrometer uses an electric field of 4.4 x 105 V/m. What magnetic field strength (in Tesla) is n
Brut [27]

Answer:

  B = 9.16 10⁻²  T

Explanation:

The speed selector is a configuration where the electric and magnetic force has the opposite direction, which for a specific speed cancel

       q v B = q E

       v = E / B

       B = E / v

Let's calculate

      B = 4.4 10⁵ / 4.8 10⁶

      B = 9.16 10⁻²  T

Enrico Fermi (1901–1954) was a famous physicist who liked to pose what are now known as Fermi problems, in which several assumpt
Katarina [22]

Answer:

Explanation:

(a)

Since the earth is assumed to be a sphere.

Volume of atmosphere = volume of (earth +atm osphere) — volume of earth

= \frac{4}{3}\pi(6400+ 50)^3 -  \frac{4}{3}\pi (6400)&#10;^3\\\\=  \frac{4}{3}\pi(6192125000) km’^3\\= 2.6\times 10^{19} m^3

Hence the volume of atmosphere is 2.6\times 10^{19} m^3

(b)

Write the ideal gas equation as foll ows:

PV = nRT\\\\n\frac{0.20atm\times 2.6\times10^{19} m^3}{0.08206L\, atm/mok\, K \times (15+273+15)K}\times \frac{1L}{10^{-3}m^3}\\\\= 2.20\times 10^{20} moles

no.\, of\, molecules = 2.20\times 10^{20} moles \times \frac{6.022\times10^{23}\,molecules}{1mole}= 13.3\times10^{43} molecules&#10;

Hence the required molecules is 13.3\times10^{43} molecules&#10;

(c)

Write the ideal gas equation as follows:

PV =nRT&#10;\\\\n=\frac{1.0 atm \times 0.5L&#10;}{0.08206 L\, atm/mol\,K \times (37 +273.1 5)K} = 0.0196 moles

no.\, of\, molecules = 0.0196 moles \times\frac{6.022\times10^{23} molecules}&#10;{Imole}= 1.2\times 10^{23} molecules

Hence the required molecules in Caesar breath is 1.2\times 10^{23} molecules

(d)

Volume fraction in Caesar last breath is as follows:  

Fraction,\, X =\frac{12\times 10 molecules}{13.3\times 10^{43} \,molecules}= 9.0\times 10\, molecule/air\, molecule}

(e)

Since the volume capacity of the human body is 500 mL.

Volume\, of\, Caesar\, nreath\, inhale\, is =\frac{ 12\times 10^{22}\, molecules}{breath}\times \frac{9.0\times10^{-23} molecule}{air\, molecule}\\\\= 1.08 molecule/breath
