A penguin slides at a constant velocity of 1.43 m/s down an icy incline. The incline slopes above the horizontal at an angle of

6.47°. At the bottom of the incline, the penguin slides onto a horizontal patch of ice. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the penguin and the ice is the same for the incline as for the horizontal patch. How much time is required for the penguin to slide to a halt after entering the horizontal patch of ice?

Answer:

t =1.285  s

Explanation:

u=1.43 m/s

∅=6.47°

We know that  μ(k)=tan∅

F(net)=-f(k)

ma =μ(k)*m*g

a =μ(k)*g   equation 1

v=u+at

0=u+(μ(k)*g*t

Putting values

t=u/(g*tan∅)

t=\frac{1.43}{9.81*tan(6.47)}

t=1.285 s

If an unknown element has a mass of 17 and contains 6 neutrons, how many protons does it have ?
lbvjy [14]

The mass number is the total number of protons and neutrons within an atom and since we know that the unknown element has 6 neutrons, we can simply subtract the number of neutrons from the mass number to get the number of protons.

17 - 6 = 11

There are 11 protons in this unknown element.


Extra:

The number of protons (+) and electrons (-) are equal in a neutral atom so since you know that there are 11 protons you also know that there are 11 electrons. On the periodic table, the element with 11 electrons is Na or Sodium.


Hope this helps! :)

A college student is working on her physics homework in her dorm room. Her room contains a total of 6.0 x 10^26 gas molecules. A
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Temperature, T = 3.62 kelvin

Explanation:

It is given that,

Total number of gas molecules, N=6\times 10^{26}

Her body is converting chemical energy into thermal energy at a rate of 125 W, P = 125 W

Time taken, t = 6 min = 360 s

Energy of a gas molecules is given by :

\Delta E =\dfrac{3}{2}NkT

T=\dfrac{2E}{3Nk}, k is Boltzmann constant

T=\dfrac{2\times P\times t}{3Nk}

T=\dfrac{2\times 125\times 360}{3\times 6\times 10^{26}\times 1.38\times 10^{-23}}

T = 3.62 K

So, the temperature increases by 3.62 kelvin. Hence, this is the required solution.
