If a girl is standing still and holding a box, is she doing any work? Why or why not?

sukhopar [10]

I beleive she isnt doing any work due to holding the box motionless, you must be exerting a force in the direction of the box motion. If she is just standing there holding the box their isn't no work becuase no distance has been covered. work = force = distance.

Two ions with masses of 4.39×10−27 kg move out of the slit of a mass spectrometer and into a region where the magnetic field is

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

7.2 cm

Explanation:

magnetic field, B = 0.301 T

speed, v = 7.92 x 10^5 m/s

mass, m = 4.39 x 10^-27 kg

q = 1.6 x 10^-19 C

The radius of singly changed ion is given by

$r = \frac{mv}{Bq}$

where, m is the mass of ion, v be the speed of ion, B is the magnetic field and q be the charge

$r = \frac{4.39\times 10^{-27}\times 7.92 \times 10^{5}}{0.301\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}$

r = 0.072 m

r = 7.2 cm

The activity of a radioisotope is found to decrease 40% of its original value in 2.59 x 10 s.

Rainbow [258]

Answer: $0.0353\ s^{-1}$

Explanation:

Given

Radioactive material is found to decrease 40% of its original value in $2.59\times 10\ s$

Sample at any time is given by

$N=N_oe^{-\lambda t}$

where, $\lambda=\text{decay constant}$

Put values

$\Rightarrow 0.4N_o=N_oe^{-\lambda\cdot 2.59\times 10}\\\Rightarrow 0.4=e^{-\lambda\cdot 2.59\times 10$

Taking natural logarithm both side

$\Rightarrow \lambda=\dfrac{\ln 2.5}{25.9}\\\\\Rightarrow \lambda =0.0353\ s^{-1}$

Earth orbits the sun at an average circular radius of about 149.60 million kilometers every 365.26 Earth days.

kobusy [5.1K]

The Earth’s average orbital speed expressed in kilometers per hours is 107225.5 Km/hr and the mass of the sun is 2.58 x $10^{24}$ Kg

<h3>Relationship between Linear and angular speed</h3>

Linear speed is the product of angular speed and the maximum displacement of the particle. That is,

V = Wr

Where

V = Linear speed

W = Angular speed

r = Radius

Given that the earth orbits the sun at an average circular radius of about 149.60 million kilometers every 365.26 Earth days.

a) To determine the Earth’s average orbital speed, we will make use of the below formula to calculate angular speed

W = 2 $\pi$ /T

W = (2 x 3.143) / (365.26 x 24)

W = 6.283 / 876624

W = 7.2 x $10^{-4}$ Rad/hr

The Earth’s average orbital speed V = Wr

V = 7.2 x $10^{-4}$ x 149.6 x $10^{6}$

V = 107225.5 kilometers per hours.

b) Based on the information given in this question, to calculate the approximate mass of the Sun, we will use Kepler's 3rd law

M = (4 $\pi ^{2}$ $r^{3}$ ) / G $T^{2}$

M = (4 x 9.8696 x 3.35 x $10^{24}$ ) / (6.67 x $10^{-11}$ x 7.68 x $10^{11}$ <em>)</em>

<em>M = 1.32 x </em> $10^{26}$ / 51.226

M = 2.58 x $10^{24}$ Kg

Therefore, the Earth’s average orbital speed expressed in kilometers per hours is 107225.5 Km/hr and the mass of the sun is 2.58 x $10^{24}$ Kg
