Find the minimum radius of a helium balloon that will lift her off the ground. the density of helium gas is 0.178 kg/m3, and the

density of air is 1.29 kg/m3. neglect the weight of the deflated balloon itself (but not the weight of the helium). assume that the shape of the balloon is a sphere. neglect the buoyant force of the air on the woman.

Volume of balloon = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}

Where r is the radius of balloon.

Here mass of woman = 68 kg

Mass of air displaced by a balloon with volume V = 1.29*V

Mass of helium inside balloon = 0.178*V

Total mass to be lifted by balloon = 68 +0.178*V

Buoyant force = 1.29V-0.178V=1.112V

So we have 1.112 V =  68+ 0.178*V

   0.934 V = 68

     V = 72.81 m^3

    \frac{4}{3} \pi r^{3}[/tex]= 72.81

     r = 2.59 m

So radius of helium balloon = 2.59 m

Rank the following meteorites in terms of their age, from youngest to oldest:1) a meteorite containing 500 238U isotopes and 100
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

When 238U which is radioactive turns into 206Pb , it becomes stable and no further disintegration is done . Hence in the initial period ratio of 238U undecayed and 206Pb formed  will be very high because no of atoms of 238U in the beginning will be very high. Gradually number of 238U undecayed will go down and number of 206Pb formed will go up . In this way the ratio of 238U and 206Pb in the mixture will gradually reduce to be equal to one or even less than one .

In the given option we shall calculate their raio

1 ) ratio of 238U and 206Pb = 5

2 ) ratio of 238U and 206Pb = 4

3 )ratio of 238U and 206Pb = 1

4 ) ratio of 238U and 206Pb = 20

5 )ratio of 238U and 206Pb = 3

lowest ratio is 1 , hence this sample will be oldest.

Ranking from youngest to oldest

4 , 1 , 2 , 5 , 3 .

Richard is driving home to visit his parents. 150 mi of the trip are on the interstate highway where the speed limit is 65 mph .
Serggg [28]

Answer:

t = 25.5 min

Explanation:

To know how many minutes does Richard save, you first calculate the time that Richard takes with both velocities v1 = 65mph and v2 = 80mph.

t_1=\frac{x}{v_1}=\frac{150mi}{65mph}=2.30h\\\\t_2=\frac{x}{v_2}=\frac{150mi}{80mph}=1.875h

Next, you calculate the difference between both times t1 and t2:

\Delta t=t_1-t_2=2.30h-1.875h=0.425h

This is the time that Richard saves when he drives with a speed of 80mph. Finally, you convert the result to minutes:

0.425h*\frac{60min}{1h}=25.5min=25\ min\ \ 30 s

hence, Richard saves 25.5 min (25 min and 30 s) when he drives with a speed of 80mph

A 60kg student is 5m from a 120kg door, how much gravitational forces act between the two?
slavikrds [6]

Gravitational force = G · m₁ · m₂ / r²

' G ' is the 'universal gravitational constant, 6.673 x 10⁻¹¹ m³/kg-s²

m₁ = 60 kg

m₂ = 120 kg

r = 5 m

F = (6.673 x 10⁻¹¹ m³/kg-sec²) · (60 kg) · (120 kg) / (5m)²

F = (6.673 x 10⁻¹¹ · 60 · 120 / 25) · (m³ · kg · kg / kg · s² · m²)

F = 1.922 x 10⁻⁸ (kg · m / s²)

<em>F = 1.922 x 10⁻⁸ Newton</em>  (about 0.0000000692 ounce of force)

A vertical straight wire carrying an upward 26-A current exerts an attractive force per unit length of 7.3×10−4 N/m on a second
gladu [14]

Answer:

The direction of current in the second wire will be upward.

Explanation:

We first need to find the direction of the magnetic field due to the first wire using the right-hand thumb rule.

Knowing that, one can easily find the direction of the second wire by using the right-hand rule.

The force per unit length on wire 2 due to wire 1 is given by,

\frac{F}{\Delta L} =\frac{\mu_oI_1I_2}{2\pi r}

Therefore,

I_2=\frac{F}{\Delta L} \frac{2\pi r}{\mu_oI_1} =\frac{7.3\times10^{-4}\times 2\pi\times0.075}{1.256\times10^{-6}\times26} A=1.053A
