Kinetic energy is energy in motion. With that in mind, at a stand still, an object has almost no kinetic energy. Since he is starting to push it, which is moving it, he is increasing the kinetic energy.

The SAME amount of current I passes through three different resistors. R2 has twice the cross-sectional area and the same length
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

resistor R₂ has the lowest current density

Explanation:

The current density is

          j = I / A

now let's analyze each case

a) R₂ has an area 2A₀ and a length L₀ that R₁

b) R₃ has an area Ao and a length 3L₀ what R₁

we can see that all the area is given in relation to the resistance R₁

 

the current density in R₁ is

         j₁ = I / A₀

the current density in R₂

         j₂ = I / 2A₀

         j₂ 2 = ½ I/A₀

the current density in R₃

         j₃ = I / A₀

         j₂ < j₁ = j₃

therefore resistor R₂ has the lowest current density

An object is attached to a vertical spring and slowly lowered to its equilibrium position. This stretches the spring by an amoun
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

2d

Explanation:

For any instance equivalent force acting on the body is

mg-kd= m\frac{d}{dt}\frac{dx}{dt}

Where

m is the mass of the object

k is the force constant of the spring

d is the extension in the spring

and

d/dt(dx/dt)=  is the acceleration of the object

solving the above equation we get

x= Asin\omega t +d

where

\omega= \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} } = \frac{2\pi}{T}

A is the amplitude of oscillation from the mean position.

k= spring constant , T= time period

Here  we are assuming  that at t=T/4

x= 0   since, no extension in the spring

then

A=- d

Hence

x=- d sin wt + d

now, x is maximum when sin wt=- 1

Therefore,

x(maximum)=2d

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

a) P_α =  exp (-ΔE / kT),  b)   P_β = 0.145 , d)  ΔE = 309.7 meV

Explanation:

The expression for the number of molecules or particles in a given state in Boltzmann's expression

            n = n₀ exp (-ΔE / kT)

Where k is the Bolztmann constant and T the absolute temperature

The probability is defined as the number of molecules in a given state over the total number of particles

          P = n / n₀ = exp (- ΔE / kT)

Let's apply this expression to our case

a) P_α = n_α / n₀ = exp (-ΔE / kT)

b) the Boltzmann constant

       k = 1,381 10⁻²³ J / K (1 eV / 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J) = 8.63 10⁻⁵ eV / K

       kT = 8.63 105 300 = 2,589 10⁻² eV

       P_β = exp (- 50 10⁻³ /2.589 10⁻² = exp (-1.931)

       P_β = 0.145

c) If the temperature approaches absolute zero, the so-called is very high, so there is no energy to reach the excited state, therefore or all the molecules go to the alpha state

d) For molecules to spend ¼ of the time in this beta there must be ¼ of molecules in this state since the decay is constant.

        P_β = ¼ = 0.25

     

       P_β = exp (- ΔE / kT)

       ΔE = -kT ln P_β

       ΔE = - 2,589 10⁻² ln 0.25

       ΔE = 0.3097 eV

       ΔE = 309.7 meV
