Say you want to make a sling by swinging a mass M of 1.9 kg in a horizontal circle of radius 0.042 m, using a string of length 0

.042 m. You wish the mass to have a kinetic energy of 15.0 Joules when released. How strong will the string need to be? (How much tension will there be in the string?)

Answer: T= 715 N

Explanation:

The only external force (neglecting gravity) acting on the swinging mass, is the centripetal force, which. in this case, is represented by the tension in the string, so we can say:

T = mv² / r

At the moment that the mass be released, it wil continue moving in a straight line at the same tangential speed that it had just an instant before, which is the same speed included in the centripetal force expression.

So the kinetic energy will be the following:

K = 1/2 m v² = 15. 0 J

Solving for v², and replacing in the expression for T:

T = 1.9 Kg (3.97)² m²/s² / 0.042 m = 715 N

In a natural gas power plant, natural gas is burned to heat steam, which turns a turbine. What energy conversion is happening in
Irina18 [472]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is A. Chemical energy to heat energy to kinetic energy to electrical energy.

<h2>Why?</h2>

Let's check the energy conversion given in the statement:

Chemical energy: Chemical energy is usually obtained from a natural resource combustion. For this particular case is the result of natural gas combustion.

Heat energy: Heat energy comes from chemical reactions such as natural gas combustions.

Kinetic energy: Kinetic energy is obtained by turbines transforming the pressurized steam on mechanical movement. Turbines are formed by a turbine that absorbs the heat energy to do mechanical work and transmit it to an output rotating shaft.

Electrical energy: Electrical energy is generated by gas turbines when the rotating output shaft is connected to an electrical generator. Electrical generators use mechanical energy to generate electrical energy by using electromagnetic induction. Electrical generators are basically formed by a rotor and a stator.

Have a nice day!

Describe the quantum mechanical model of the atom and several observations which support this model.
PIT_PIT [208]

This means that we shouldn't imagine electrons as single objects going around the atom. Instead, all we know is the probability of finding an electron at a particular location. What we end up with is something called an electron cloud. An electron cloud is an area of space in which an electron is likely to be found. It's like a 3-D graph showing the probability of finding the electron at each location in space. Quantum mechanics also tells us that a particle has certain numbers (called quantum numbers) that represent its properties. Just like how materials can be hard or soft, shiny or dull, particles have numbers to describe the properties. These include a particle's orbital quantum numbers, magnetic quantum number, and its spin. No two electrons in an atom can have exactly the same quantum numbers. Orbital quantum numbers tell you what energy level the electron is in. In the Bohr model, this represents how high the orbit is above the nucleus; higher orbits have more energy. The first orbit is n=1, the second is n=2, and so on. The magnetic quantum number is just a number that represents which direction the electron is pointing. The other important quantum mechanical property, called spin, is related to the fact that electrons come in pairs. In each pair, one electron spins one way (with a spin of one half), and the other electron spins the other way (with a spin of negative one half). Two electrons with the same spin cannot exist as a pair. This might seem kind of random, but it has effects in terms of how magnetic material is. Materials that have unpaired electrons are more likely to be magnetic

The electric field of a sinusoidal electromagnetic wave obeys the equation E = (375V /m) cos[(1.99× 107rad/m)x + (5.97 × 1015rad
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

a)  v = 2,9992 10⁸ m / s , b)  Eo = 375 V / m ,  B = 1.25 10⁻⁶ T,

c)     λ = 3,157 10⁻⁷ m,   f = 9.50 10¹⁴ Hz ,  T = 1.05 10⁻¹⁵ s , UV

Explanation:

In this problem they give us the equation of the traveling wave

        E = 375 cos [1.99 10⁷ x + 5.97 10¹⁵ t]

a) what the wave velocity

all waves must meet

        v = λ f

In this case, because of an electromagnetic wave, the speed must be the speed of light.

        k = 2π / λ

        λ = 2π / k

        λ = 2π / 1.99 10⁷

        λ = 3,157 10⁻⁷ m

        w = 2π f

        f = w / 2 π

        f = 5.97 10¹⁵ / 2π

        f = 9.50 10¹⁴ Hz

the wave speed is

        v = 3,157 10⁻⁷   9.50 10¹⁴

        v = 2,9992 10⁸ m / s

b) The electric field is

           Eo = 375 V / m

to find the magnetic field we use

           E / B = c

           B = E / c

            B = 375 / 2,9992 10⁸

            B = 1.25 10⁻⁶ T

c) The period is

           T = 1 / f

            T = 1 / 9.50 10¹⁴

            T = 1.05 10⁻¹⁵ s

the wavelength value is

          λ = 3,157 10-7 m (109 nm / 1m) = 315.7 nm

this wavelength corresponds to the ultraviolet
