                                         Potential energy  =  (mass) x (gravity) x (height)

Divide each side by (G x H) :      Mass  =  PE / (G x H) 

PE = 6 joules
Gravity = 9.8 m/s
Height = 3 m
                                                     Mass  =  6 / (9.8 x 3) =

                                                                     6 / (29.4)  =  <em>0.204 kg</em>

A weight lifter is trying to do a bicep curl with a weight of 300 N. At the "sticking point", the moment arm of this weight is 3
lesantik [10]

Answer:

The weight lifter would not get past this sticking point.

Explanation:

Generally torque applied on the weight is mathematically represented as

             T =  F z

To obtain Elbow torque we substitute 4000 N for F (the force ) and 2cm = \frac{2}{100} = 0.02m for z the perpendicular distance

So Elbow Torque is   T_e= 4000 * 0.02

                                   = 80Nm

 To obtain the torque required we substitute 300 N for F and 30cm =\frac{30}{100} = 0.3 m

  So the Required Torque is T_R = 300 *0.3

                                                     =90Nm

Now since   T_e < T_R it mean that the weight lifter would not get past this sticking point

A laser emits two wavelengths (λ1 = 420 nm; λ2 = 630 nm). When these two wavelengths strike a grating with 450 lines/mm, they pr
Westkost [7]

A) Order of the first laser: 3, order of the second laser: 2

B) The overlap occurs at an angle of 34.9^{\circ}

Explanation:

A)

The formula that gives the position of the maxima (bright fringes) for a diffraction grating is

d sin \theta = m \lambda

where

d is spacing between the lines in the grating

\theta is the angle of the maximum

m is the order of diffraction

\lambda is the wavelength of the light

For laser 1,

d sin \theta = m_1 \lambda_1

For laser 2,

d sin \theta = m_2 \lambda_2

where

\lambda_1 = 420 nm\\\lambda_2 = 630 nm

Since the position of the maxima in the two cases overlaps, then the term d sin \theta on the left is the same for the two cases, therefore we can write:

m_1 \lambda_1 = m_2 \lambda_2\\\frac{m_1}{m_2}=\frac{\lambda_2}{\lambda_1}=\frac{630}{420}=\frac{3}{2}

Therefore:

m_1 = 3

m_2 = 2

B)

In order to find the angle at which the overlap occurs, we use the 1st laser situation:

d sin \theta = m_1 \lambda_1

where:

N = 450 lines/mm = 450,000 lines/m is the number of lines per unit length, so the spacing between the lines is

d=\frac{1}{N}=\frac{1}{450,000}=2.2\cdot 10^{-6} m

m_1 = 3 is the order of the maximum

\lambda_1 = 420 nm = 420\cdot 10^{-9} m is the wavelength of the laser light

Solving for \theta, we find the angle of the maximum:

sin \theta = \frac{m_1 \lambda_1}{d}=\frac{(3)(420\cdot 10^{-9})}{2.2\cdot 10^{-6}}=0.572

So the angle is

\theta=sin^{-1}(0.572)=34.9^{\circ}

Explain different types of thermometer and their thermometry substance​
Rudiy27

Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

1) Liquid in glass thermometer: This type of thermometer is used primarily to measure the temperatures from inspection of changes in volume of liquid.

Thermometry substance is mercury or alcohol

2) Gas thermometer: This type is used to measure temperature as a result of changes in gas pressure or volume.

Thermometry substance is Gas.

3) Resistance thermometer: This type is used to measure temperature due to changes in electric resistance.

Thermometry substance is Resistance wire.

4) Thermocouple thermometer: This type is used to measure the temperature due to changes in electrical potential difference occurring between two metal junctions.

Thermometry substance is two wires that are dissimilar.

5) Bimetallic thermometer: This is a type of thermometer that measures temperature by converting temperature into mechanical displacement by making use of Bimetallic strip.

Thermometry substance is two metals that are dissimilar.

Temperature Dependence of the pH of pure Water
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

At 100°C, the pH of pure water is 6.14. That is the neutral point on the pH scale at this higher temperature. A solution with a pH of 7 at this temperature is slightly alkaline because its pH is a bit higher than the neutral value of 6.14.
