A spaceship is headed toward Alpha Centauri at 0.999c. According to us, the distance to Alpha Centauri is about 4 light-years. H

aniked [119]

Answer:

According to the travellers, Alpha Centauri is c) very slightly less than 4 light-years

Explanation:

For a stationary observer, Alpha Centauri is 4 light-years away but for an observer who is travelling close to the speed of light, Alpha Centauri is very slightly less than 4 light-years. The following expression explains why:

v = d / t

where

v is the speed of the spaceship
d is the distance
t is the time

Therefore,

d = v × t

d = (0.999 c)(4 light-years)

d = 3.996 light-years

This distance is very slightly less than 4 light-years.

Which statement about van der Waals forces is true?

kobusy [5.1K]

The answer is A. When the forces are weaker, they will not be able to hold the particles of the substances together; therefore, the substance will be observed as being volatile.

series RC circuit is built with a 15 kΩ resistor and a parallel-plate capacitor with 18-cm-diameter electrodes. A 18 V, 36 kHz s

andre [41]

Answer:

$d=1.84\ mm$

Explanation:

Capacitance

A two parallel-plate capacitor has a capacitance of

$\displaystyle C=\frac{\epsilon_o A}{d}$

where

$\epsilon_o=8.85\cdot 10^{-12}\ F/m$

A = area of the plates = $\pi r^2$

d = separation of the plates

$\displaystyle d=\frac{\epsilon_o A}{C}=\frac{\epsilon_o \pi r^2}{C}$

We need to compute C. We'll use the circuit parameters for that. The reactance of a capacitor is given by

$\displaystyle X_c=\frac{1}{wC}$

where w is the angular frequency

$w=2\pi f=2\pi \cdot 36000=226194.67\ rad/s$

Solving for C

$\displaystyle C=\frac{1}{wX_c}$

The reactance can be found knowing the total impedance of the circuit:

$Z^2=R^2+X_c^2$

Where R is the resistance, $R=15 K\Omega=15000\Omega$ . Solving for Xc

$X_c^2=Z^2-R^2$

The magnitude of the impedance is computed as the ratio of the rms voltage and rms current

$\displaystyle Z=\frac{V}{I}$

The rms current is the peak current Ip divided by $\sqrt{2}$ , thus

$\displaystyle Z=\frac{\sqrt{2}V}{I_p}$

$I_p=0.65\ mA/1000=0.00065\ A$

Now collect formulas

$\displaystyle X_c^2=Z^2-R^2=\left(\frac{\sqrt{2}V}{I_p}\right)^2-R^2$

Or, equivalently

$\displaystyle X_c=\sqrt{\frac{2V^2}{I_p^2}-R^2}$

$\displaystyle X_c=\sqrt{\frac{2\cdot 18^2}{0.00065^2}-15000^2}$

$X_c=36176.34\ \Omega$

The capacitance is now

$\displaystyle C=\frac{1}{226194.67\cdot 36176.34}=1.22\cdot 10^{-10}\ F$

The radius of the plates is

$r=18\ cm/2=9 \ cm = 0.09 \ m$

The separation between the plates is

$\displaystyle d=\frac{8.85\cdot 10^{-12} \cdot \pi\cdot 0.09^2}{1.22\cdot 10^{-10}}$

$d=0.00184\ m$

$\boxed{d=1.84\ mm}$

A skier moving at 4.75 m/s encounters a long, rough, horizontal patch of snow having a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.220

disa [49]

First we need to find the acceleration of the skier on the rough patch of snow.
We are only concerned with the horizontal direction, since the skier is moving in this direction, so we can neglect forces that do not act in this direction. So we have only one horizontal force acting on the skier: the frictional force, $\mu m g$ . For Newton's second law, the resultant of the forces acting on the skier must be equal to ma (mass per acceleration), so we can write:
$ma=-\mu m g$
Where the negative sign is due to the fact the friction is directed against the motion of the skier.
Simplifying and solving, we find the value of the acceleration:
$a=-(0.220)(9.81 m/s^2)=-2.16 m/s^2$

Now we can use the following relationship to find the distance covered by the skier before stopping, S:
$2aS=v_f^2-v_i^2$
where $v_f=0$ is the final speed of the skier and $v_i=4.75 m/s$ is the initial speed. Substituting numbers, we find:
$S=- \frac{v_i^2}{2a}=- \frac{(4.75 m/s)^2}{2(-2.16 m/s^2)}=5.23 m$
