A neutron consists of one "up" quark of charge +2e/3 and two "down" quarks each having charge -e/3. If we assume that the down q

uarks are 4.6 × 10-15 m apart inside the neutron, what is the magnitude of the electrostatic force between them?

Answer:

The magnitude of the electrostatic force is 120.85 N

Explanation:

We can use Coulomb's law to find the electrostatic force between the down quarks.

In scalar form, Coulomb's law states that for charges q_1 and q_2 separated by a distance d, the magnitude of the electrostatic force F between them is:

F = k \frac{|q_1q_2|}{d^2}

where k is Coulomb's constant.

Taking the values:

d = 4.6 \ 10^{-15} m

q_1 = q_2 = - \frac{e}{3} = - \frac{1.6 \ 10^{-19} \ C}{3}

and knowing the value of the Coulomb's constant:

k = 8.99 \ 10 ^{9} \frac{N m^2}{C^2}

Taking all this in consideration:

F = 8.99 \ 10 ^{9} \frac{N m^2}{C^2} \frac{ (- \frac{1.6 \ 10^{-19} \ C}{3} ) ^2}{(4.6 \ 10^{-15} m)^2}

F = 120.85  \ N

An early submersible craft for deep-sea exploration was raised and lowered by a cable from a ship. When the craft was stationary
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

a) 5200 N  b) 8800 N

Explanation:

a) tension in the cable when it was being lowered to the sea floor = weight of the object which acts downward ( equals the tension in the cable when the craft was stationary in opposite direction)  - the drag force which will act upward =  7000 - 1800 = 5200 N

b) tension in the cable when the craft was being raised since the tension will act upward and the drag force and the weight will act downward = 7000 + 1800 = 8800 N

Which of the following is same dimension quantity?
hram777 [196]

Answer:

Find the dimension of each and every quantity in all the options to check whether they are the same or not. We can use any one formula of each identity to find its dimension.

Complete step by step solution:

To find the dimension of a quantity, we can use any formula related to that quantity but we will use the easiest ones to save time.

Force-

from Newton’s law of motion,

F=maF=ma

Dimension of force =[M][LT−2]=[MLT−2]=[M][LT−2]=[MLT−2]

Work done-

W=F×sW=F×s

Dimension of work=[MLT−2][L]=[ML2T−2]=[MLT−2][L]=[ML2T−2]

Momentum-

p=mvp=mv

Dimension of momentum=[M][LT1]=[MLT−1]=[M][LT1]=[MLT−1]

Impulse-

I=F×tI=F×t

Dimension of impulse=[MLT−2][T]=[

Two go-carts, A and B, race each other around a 1.0 track. Go-cart A travels at a constant speed of 20.0 /. Go-cart B accelerate
maria [59]

Complete Question

Q. Two go-carts, A and B, race each other around a 1.0km track. Go-cart A travels at a constant speed of 20m/s. Go-cart B accelerates uniformly from rest at a rate of 0.333m/s^2. Which go-cart wins the race and by how much time?

Answer:

Go-cart A is faster

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

       The length of the track is l =  1.0 \ km  =  1000 \  m

       The speed of  A is  v__{A}} =  20 \ m/s

       The uniform acceleration of  B is  a__{B}} =  0.333 \ m/s^2

  Generally the time taken by go-cart  A is mathematically represented as

              t__{A}} = \frac{l}{v__{A}}}

=>          t__{A}} = \frac{1000}{20}

=>           t__{A}} =  50 \  s

  Generally from kinematic equation we can evaluate the time taken by go-cart B as

             l =  ut__{B}} + \frac{1}{2}  a__{B}} * t__{B}}^2

given that go-cart B starts from rest  u =  0 m/s

So

            1000 =  0 *t__{B}} + \frac{1}{2}  * 0.333  * t__{B}}^2

=>         1000 =  0 *t__{B}} + \frac{1}{2}  0.333  * t__{B}}^2            

=>         t__{B}} =  77.5 \  seconds  

 

Comparing  t__{A}} \  and  \ t__{B}}  we see that t__{A}} is smaller so go-cart A is  faster

Which considerations are used to calculate a windchill factor? Select two options.
vlada-n [284]

Wind speed and air temperature are used to calculate a windchill factor.

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u></u>

Wind-chill factor is the reduction of body temperature due to the passing flow of lower-temperature air.

The air temperature  value is always higher than the wind chill numbers. the heat index will be used if the apparent temperature is higher than the air temperature.So, Wind speed and air temperature are mainly used to calculate a windchill factor.

There are many ways, the surface loses its heat through conduction, evaporation,radiation, and convection.The rate of convection depends on  the difference in temperature between the surface and the fluid surrounding the surface and the velocity of that fluid with respect to the surface. The air around the warm surface will be heated, an insulating  layer of warm air forms against the surface.The layer becomes a boundary between two. As the wind speed is high the surface cools down rapidly.
