In 1995 a research group led by Eric Cornell and Carl Wiemann at the University of Colorado successfully cooled Rubidium atoms t

o the 20-200 nK temperature range. Assuming (incorrectly) that the Rubidium atoms behave like particles of a classical ideal gas, calculate the RMS speed of a Rubidium atom at a temperature of 85.0 nK. In the experiments one particular isotope of Rubidium was used, Rubidium-87. The molar mass of this isotope is 86.91 g/mol.

Answer:

0.00493 m/s

Explanation:

T = Temperature of the isotope = 85 nK

R = Gas constant = 8.341 J/mol K

M = Molar mass of isotope = 86.91 g/mol

Root Mean Square speed is given by

v_r=\sqrt{\dfrac{3RT}{M}}\\\Rightarrow v_r=\sqrt{\dfrac{3\times 8.314\times 85\times 10^{-9}}{86.91\times 10^{-3}}}\\\Rightarrow v_r=0.00493\ m/s

The Root Mean Square speed is 0.00493 m/s

A 10 kg bear is running to the right at 10 m/s. He crashes into another 10 kg bear running to the left at -5 m/s. They collide a
faust18 [17]

Answer:

<em>Total momentum is conserved</em>

Explanation:

<u>Conservation of Momentum </u>

The momentum is a physical magnitude that measures the product of the object's velocity by its mass. The total momentum of a system is the sum of all its components' individual momentums. The two-bear system starts with a total moment of  

p=m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(10)(10)+(10)(-50)=50\ kg.m/s

When both bears stick together, the total mass is 20 kg, and the new momentum is

p'=(20)(2.5)=50 \ kg.m/s

We have assumed both bears move to the right after the collision. In this situation, the total momentum is conserved

Explain how the pressure at the bottom of a container depends on the container shape and the fluid height
3241004551 [841]

The pressure at the bottom of a column of fluid in a container
depends only on the depth of the fluid, not on the shape of the
container.  The pressure is simply the result of the weight of the
fluid resting on the bottom.

Two long straight parallel lines of charge, #1 and #2, carry positive charge per unit lengths of λ1 and λ2, respectively. λ1 &gt
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

Somewhere between the two wires, but closer to the wire carrying λ₂

Explanation:

Electric Field for a point at distance x from an electric charge Q is Ef = K*Q/x².

Electric Fied due to an electric charge is a vector and its direction is  such that  if we place a positive charge in the point it will be rejected ( equal sign charge repulse each other and different attract each other)

According to that previous explanation, it is no possible two have Ef=0 out of the two wires region, since above the upper wire and below the lower wire we have to add the two electric fields (both have the same direction). Therefore we only have possibilities of Ef = 0 inside the two wires, where the repulsion produced over a positive charge due to the two wires  are opposite

In the particular case in which λ₁ and λ₂ are equals then all the points exactly in the middle of d (distance between the two wires ) will have Ef =0.

As we can see at the beginning of the step by step explanation Electric field is proportional to the electric charge, or for a bigger charge, bigger Ef (keeping constant distance). In our case λ₁ >λ₂ then E₁ (Electric field produced by a wire carrying λ₁ will be bigger than (Electric field produced by wire carrying λ₂ at the middle way between the wires.

But for points closer to wire with λ₂  ( where E₂ is bigger than E₁ ) we will surely find an appropriate distance  to get equals E and then Ef = 0
