Explanation:

SI base units are the set of units to measure physical quantities given by international system of units.

Here, we need to write the SI base units for the following quantities.

1. The mass of a sports car : Kilogram (kg)

2. The diameter of a pizza : meters (m)

3. The mass of a single slice of pepperoni : Kilogram (kg)

4. The distance from your home to school : meters (m)

5. Your mass : Kilogram (kg)

Hence, this is the required solution.

A fisherman is fishing from a bridge and is using a "42.0-N test line." In other words, the line will sustain a maximum force of

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

(a) 42 N

(b)36.7 N

Explanation:

Nomenclature

F= force test line (N)

W : fish weight (N)

Problem development

(a) Calculating of weight of the heaviest fish that can be pulled up vertically, when the line is reeled in at constant speed

We apply Newton's first law of equlibrio because the system moves at constant speed:

∑Fy =0

F-W= 0

42N -W =0

W = 42N

(b) Calculating of weight of the heaviest fish that can be pulled up vertically, when the line is reeled with an acceleration whose magnitude is 1.41 m/s²

We apply Newton's second law because the system moves at constant acceleration:

m= W/g , m= W/9.8 , m:fish mass , W: fish weight g:acceleration due to gravity

∑Fy =m*a

m= W/g , m= W/9.8 , m:fish mass , W: fish weight g:acceleration due to gravity

F-W= ( W/9.8 )*a

42-W= ( W/9.8 )*1.41

42= W+0.1439W

42=1.1439W

W= 42/1.1439

W= 36.7 N

A screen is placed 1.20m behind a single slit. The central maximum in the resulting diffraction pattern on the screen is 1.40cm

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

2.8 cm

Explanation:

$y_1$ = Separation between two first order diffraction minima = 1.4 cm

D = Distance of screen = 1.2 m

m = Order

Fringe width is given by

$\beta_1=\dfrac{y_1}{2}\\\Rightarrow \beta_1=\dfrac{1.4}{2}\\\Rightarrow \beta_1=0.7\ cm$

Fringe width is also given by

$\beta_1=\dfrac{m_1\lambda D}{d}\\\Rightarrow d=\dfrac{m_1\lambda D}{\beta_1}$

For second order

$\beta_2=\dfrac{m_2\lambda D}{d}\\\Rightarrow \beta_2=\dfrac{m_2\lambda D}{\dfrac{m_1\lambda D}{\beta_1}}\\\Rightarrow \beta_2=\dfrac{m_2}{m_1}\beta_1$

Distance between two second order minima is given by

$y_2=2\beta_2$

$\\\Rightarrow y_2=2\dfrac{m_2}{m_1}\beta_1\\\Rightarrow y_2=2\dfrac{2}{1}\times 0.7\\\Rightarrow y_2=2.8\ cm$

The distance between the two second order minima is 2.8 cm

1. A sample consisting of 1.0 mol CaCO3 (s) was heated to 800oC when it is decomposed. The heating was carried out in a containe

ExtremeBDS [4]

Expansion work against constant external pressure: w=-pex Δ Δ V 3. The attempt at a solution . I tried following that. Because Vf>>Vi, and Vf=nRT/pex, then w=-pex x nRT/pex=-nRT (im assuming n is number of moles of CO2?). 1 mole of CaCO3 makes 1 mole of CO2, so plugging in numbers, I get 8.9kJ, although I dont use the 1 atm pressure at all

What is the scientific revolution??

Basile [38]

The scientific revolution is a concept which explains how the developments of science (biology, chemistry, physics and etc.) changed the way we (society) think about nature. I hope this helps! :)
