2. Black holes

The Chandra X-ray Observatory (CXO),  formally recognized as the Advanced X-ray Astrophysics Facility (AXAF), is a space observatory originated about STS-93 by NASA on July 23, 1999. Chandra is susceptible to X-ray origins 100 times heavier than any preceding X-ray telescope, facilitated by the great angular interpretation of its glasses. Since the Earth's environment receives the vast majority of X-rays, they are not detectable from Earth-based telelectroscope; accordingly space-based telescopes are needed to make these observations. This observatory is basically famous for the study of Black holes in the Universe.

Estimate the mass of water that must evaporate from the skin to cool the body by 0.45 ∘C. Assume a body mass of 95 kg and assume
hram777 [196]

Answer:

0.0757 kg

Explanation:

m = mass of the body = 95 kg = 95000 g

ΔT = change in the temperature of the body = 0.45 °C

c = specific heat capacity of the body = 4.0 J/(g °C)

M = mass of water evaporated

L = latent heat of vaporization of water = 2260 J/g

Using conservation of heat

Heat gained by water = heat lost by body

ML = m c ΔT

M (2260) = (95000) (4.0) (0.45)

M = 75.7 g

M = 0.0757 kg

What is the acceleration of a proton moving with a speed of 7.0 m/s at right angles to a magnetic field of 1.7 t ?
Ivenika [448]
We know that a charge moving in a magnetic field is subject to the force:
F = q · v · B

But we also know that:
F = m · a

Therefore, it must be:
m · a = <span>q · v · B

And solving for a:
</span>a = <span>q · v · B / m

Recall that for a proton:
q = 1.6</span>×10⁻¹⁹ C
m = 1.673×10⁻²⁷ kg

Now, you can find:
a = 1.6×10⁻¹⁹ · 7.0 · 1.7 / <span>1.673×10⁻²⁷
   = 1.14</span>×10⁹ m/s²

Hence, the acceleration of the proton is 1.14<span>×10⁹ m/s²</span>.
