Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

If we are talking about the kinetic energy of the cylinder of oxygen:

The kinetic energy possessed by any object is given by

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its speed

In this case, we have one cylinder carried by a car and one standing on a platform: this means that the speed of the cylinder carried by the car will be different from zero (and so also its kinetic energy will be different from zer), while the speed of the cylinder standing on the platform will be zero (and so its kinetic energy also zero). Therefore, the kinetic energy of the cylinder carried by the car will be larger than that standing on a platform.

Instead, if we are talking about the kinetic energy due to the random motion of the molecules of oxygen inside the cylinder:

The kinetic energy of the molecules in a gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas:

K=\frac{3}{2}kT

where k is called Boltzmann constant and T is the absolute temperature of the gas. Therefore, we see that K does not depend on whether the gas is in motion or not, but only on its temperature - therefore, in this case there is no difference between the kinetic energy of the cylinder carried by the car and that standing on the platform (assuming they are at the same temperature)

Use the formula h = −16t2 + v0t. (if an answer does not exist, enter dne.) a ball is thrown straight upward at an initial speed
makkiz [27]
Using the given formula with v0=56 ft/s and h=40 ft 
h = -16t2 + v0t  
40 = -16t2 + 56t 
16t2 - 56t + 40 = 0  
Solving the quadratic equation:  
t= (-b+/-(b^2-4ac)^1/2)/2a = (56+/-((-56)^2-4*16*40)^1/2)/2*16 = (56 +/- 24) / 32 
 We have two possible solutions  
t1 = (56+24)/32 = 2.5 
t2 = (56-24)/32 = 1  
So initially the ball reach a height of 40 ft in 1 second.

Suppose all the people of the Earth go to the North Pole and, on a signal, all jump straight up. Estimate the recoil speed of th
Makovka662 [10]

Explanation:

It is known that relation between velocity and height is as follows.

              v = \sqrt{2gh}

where,     g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s^{2}

                h = height = 0.2 m

Therefore, velocity is calculated as follows.

            v = \sqrt{2gh}

               = \sqrt{2 \times 9.8 \times 0.2}

               = 3.92 m/s

Also,

      m_{people}v_{people} = m_{earth}v_{earth}

    v_{earth} = \frac{m_{people}v_{people}}{m_{earth}}

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

     v_{earth} = \frac{m_{people}v_{people}}{m_{earth}}

                = \frac{6 \times 10^{9} \times 74 kg/person}{6 \times 10^{24} kg}

                = \frac{444 \times 10^{9}}{6 \times 10^{24}}

                = 74 \times 10^{-15} m/s

or,             = 7.4 \times 10^{-14} m/s

Thus, we can conclude that recoil speed of the Earth is 7.4 \times 10^{-14} m/s.

A grating has 2000 slits/cm/cm. How many full spectral orders can be seen (400 to 700 nmnm) when it is illuminated by white ligh
Anton [14]

With the use of the formula SinФ = nλ / d, there are 16 spectral orders which can be seen when it is illuminated by white light.

Given that a grating has 2000 slits/cm. That is,

d = 0.01 / 2000

d = 5 x 10^{-6} m

The wavelength λ = (700 - 400) nm

λ = 300 x 10^{-9} m

To calculate how many full spectral orders that can be seen (400 to 700 nm) when it is illuminated by white light, we will use the below formula

SinФ = nλ / d

Φ = Sin^{-1} (nλ / d)

When n = 1

Φ = Sin^{-1}(300 x 10^{-9}/ 5 x 10^{-6} )

Φ = 3.4 degrees

when n = 2

Φ = Sin^{-1}(2 x 300 x 10^{-9}/ 5 x 10^{-6} )

Ф = 6.9 degrees

When n = 3

Ф = Sin^{-1}(3 x 300 x 10^{-9}/ 5 x 10^{-6} )

When n = 16

Ф = Sin^{-1}(16 x 300 x 10^{-9}/ 5 x 10^{-6} )

Ф = Sin^{-1}(0.96)

Ф = 73.7 degrees

when n = 17

Ф = Sin^{-1}(17 x 300 x 10^{-9}/ 5 x 10^{-6} )

Ф = Sin^{-1}(1.05)

Ф = Error ( that is, it does not exist)

Therefore, there are 16 spectral orders which can be seen when it is illuminated by white light.
