How would you determine the volume of an irregularly shaped object such as a paper clip?

Physics

zheka24 [161]3 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

Take a measuring cylinder and fill it with a certain amount of water. Measure this amount of water.

Place the paper clip in the filled measuring cylinder. You will notice that the water level has gone up. When we place the paper clip in the cylinder the volume of the paper clip gets added to the volume that was present in the cylinder.

The volume of the paper clip will be the final volume of water with the paper clip - The initial volume of water without the paper clip.

Any irregularly shaped object's volume can be determined by this method.

Two planes leave wichita at noon. one plane flies east 30 mi/h faster than the other plane, which is flying west. at what time w
scoundrel [369]
You have to take note of the individual directions of the plane. Since one is heading east, and the other is heading west, the planes are heading at opposite directions. So, it means that their distance between each other would be equal to 1,200 miles which accounts for the sum of their individual distances. The equation is as follows:

Total Distance = Distance of slower plane + Distance of faster plane
1,200 miles = st + (30+s)(t)
where
s is the speed of the slower plane and t is the time. Since both are not given, the final answer would just be in terms of s.
1,200 = t(s + 30 + s)
t = 1200/(30+2s)
t = 600/(15+s)

A medical cyclotron used in the production of medical isotopes accelerates protons to 6.5 MeV. The magnetic field in the cyclotr
mart [117]

Answer:

diameter of largest orbit is 0.60 m

Explanation:

given data

isotopes accelerates KE = 6.5 MeV

magnetic field B = 1.2 T

to find out

diameter

solution

first we find velocity from kinetic energy equation

KE = 1/2 × m×v²   ........1

6.5 × 1.6 × 10^{-19} = 1/2 × 1.672 × 10^{-27} ×v²

v = 3.5 × 10^{7} m/s

so

radius will be

radius = \frac{m*v}{B*q}   ........2

radius =  \frac{1.672*10^{-27}*3.5*10^{7}}{1.2*1.6*10^{-19}}  

radius = 0.30

so diameter = 2 × 0.30

so diameter of largest orbit is 0.60 m
