If a carbon atom was broken in half, would it still be carbon?

1 answer:

4 0

If a carbon atom was broken in half, would it still be carbon? 99% of all carbon atoms are the isotope carbon-12m containing 6 protons and 6 neutrons. If you split that evenly, the resulting atom would have 3 protons and 3 neutrons, which would be lithium-6.

An airplane is moving at 350 km/hr. If a bomb is

bogdanovich [222]

Answers:

a) -171.402 m/s

b) 17.49 s

c) 1700.99 m

Explanation:

We can solve this problem with the following equations:

$y=y_{o}+V_{oy}t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$ (1)

$x=V_{ox}t$ (2)

$V_{f}=V_{oy}-gt$ (3)

Where:

$y=0 m$ is the bomb's final height

$y_{o}=1.5 km \frac{1000 m}{1 km}=1500 m$ is the bomb's initial height

$V_{oy}=0 m/s$ is the bomb's initial vertical velocity, since the airplane was moving horizontally

$t$ is the time

$g=9.8 m/s^{2}$ is the acceleration due gravity

$x$ is the bomb's range

$V_{ox}=350 \frac{km}{h} \frac{1000 m}{1 km} \frac{1 h}{3600 s}=97.22 m/s$ is the bomb's initial horizontal velocity

$V_{f}$ is the bomb's final velocity

Knowing this, let's begin with the answers:

With the conditions given above, equation (1) is now written as:

$y_{o}=\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$ (4)

Isolating $t$ :

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2 y_{o}}{g}}$ (5)

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2 (1500 m)}{9.8 m/s^{2}}}$ (6)

$t=17.49 s$ (7)

<h3>a) Final velocity </h3>

Since $V_{oy}=0 m/s$ , equation (3) is written as:

$V_{f}=-gt$ (8)

$V_{f}=-(97.22)(17.49 s)$ (9)

$V_{f}=-171.402 m/s$ (10) The negative sign only indicates the direction is downwards

<h3>c) Range </h3>

Substituting (7) in (2):

$x=(97.22 m/s)(17.49 s)$ (11)

$x=1700.99 m$ (12)

An astronaut who is repairing the outside of her spaceship accidentally pushes away a 92.9 cm long steel rod, which flies off at

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

V = 0.0723 volts = 72.3 milivolts

Explanation:

The emf induced in the rod is the motional emf due to the magnetic field. This motional emf can be calculated by the following formula:

$EMF = V = vBl Sin\theta$

where,

V = Motional EMF = ?

v = speed of rod = 12.5 m/s

B = Magnetic Field = 6.23 mT = 0.00623 T

l = Length of rod = 92.9 cm = 0.929 m

θ = angle between v and B = 90°

Therefore,

$V = (12.5\ m/s)(0.00623\ T)(0.929\ m)Sin\ 90^o\\$

<u>V = 0.0723 volts = 72.3 milivolts</u>
