w does the molecular mass of A compare to that of B? (a) It is twice that of B. (b) It is one half that of B (c) It is four times that of B (d) It is one fourth that of B. (e) It is 1.4 times that of B.

Answer:

option (d)

Explanation:

The relation between the rms velocity and the molecular mass is given by

v   proportional to  \frac{1}{\sqrt{M}} keeping the temperature constant

So for two gases

\frac{v_{A}}{v_{B}}=\sqrt{\frac{M_{B}}{M_{A}}}

\frac{2v_{B}}{v_{B}}=\sqrt{\frac{M_{B}}{M_{A}}}

{\frac{M_{B}}{M_{A}}} = 4

{\frac{M_{B}}{4}} = M_{A}

Riding in a car, you suddenly put on the brakes. As you experience it inside the car, do Newton's law apply? Do they apply as se
alisha [4.7K]

Answer with Explanation:

Newton's laws are applicable for inertial frames of reference which is a frame which is not accelerating when seen from the observer standing on earth.

For the person as he presses the brakes his frame is a decelerating frame of reference hence he cannot apply the newtons laws of motion as they are in their original form but if he analyses the motion he has to apply a correction known as  pseudo-force on the object he is analyzing. Pseudo Force has no basis in newton's laws but are a correction that needs to be applied if he wishes to analyse the motion from non inertial frame of reference

While as a person standing on earth outside the car since his frame is an inertial frame of reference he can apply newton's laws of motion without any correction.

A small object carrying a charge of -4.00 nC is acted upon by a downward force of 24.0 nN when placed at a certain point in an e
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

E  = -6 \  N/C

Generally given that the electric field is negative it mean that its direction is opposite to that of the force    

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The charge on the small object is Q = -4.00 \ nC =  -4.00 *10^{-9} \  C

   The force is  F  =  24  \ nN  =  24 *10^{-9} \  N

    Generally the magnitude of the electric  field is mathematically represented as

       E  =  \frac{F}{Q}

=>    E  =  \frac{ 24 *10^{-9}} {-4 *10^{-9 }}

=>     E  = -6 \  N/C

Generally given that the electric field is negative it mean that its direction is opposite to that of the force

What are the units, if any, of the particle in a box wavefunction. What does this mean?
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

  • [\psi]= [Length^{-3/2}]
  • This means that the integral of the square modulus over the space is dimensionless.

Explanation:

We know that the square modulus of the wavefunction integrated over a volume gives us the probability of finding the particle in that volume. So the result of the integral

\int\limits^{x_f}_{x_0} \int\limits^{yf}_{y_0} \int\limits^{z_f}_{z_0} |\psi|^2 \, dz \,  dy \,  dx

must be dimensionless, as represents a probability.

As the differentials has units of length

[dx]=[dy]=[dz]=[Length]

for the integral to be dimensionless, the units of the square modulus of the wavefunction has to be:

[\psi]^2 = [Length^{-3}]

taking the square root this gives us :

[\psi] = [Length^{-3/2}]
