Which one of the following environments will sound not travel through?

1 answer:

7 0

The answer is d. Vacuum

Sound waves need a molecul to travel through. Gas , solid, annd liquid provide that medium.

But vacuum is just an empty space withour any moleculs in it.

Thats why in space, no one can hear you scream. Because it simply not physicsly possible

Answer:

The value is $R_f = \frac{4}{5} R$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The initial velocity of the proton is $v_o$

At a distance R from the nucleus the velocity is $v_1 = \frac{1}{2} v_o$

The velocity considered is $v_2 = \frac{1}{4} v_o$

Generally considering from initial position to a position of distance R from the nucleus

Generally from the law of energy conservation we have that

$\Delta K = \Delta P$

Here $\Delta K$ is the change in kinetic energy from initial position to a position of distance R from the nucleus , this is mathematically represented as

$\Delta K = K__{R}} - K_i$

=> $\Delta K = \frac{1}{2} * m * v_1^2 - \frac{1}{2} * m * v_o^2$

=> $\Delta K = \frac{1}{2} * m * (\frac{1}{2} * v_o )^2 - \frac{1}{2} * m * v_o^2$

=> $\Delta K = \frac{1}{2} * m * \frac{1}{4} * v_o ^2 - \frac{1}{2} * m * v_o^2$

And $\Delta P$ is the change in electric potential energy from initial position to a position of distance R from the nucleus , this is mathematically represented as

$\Delta P = P_f - P_i$

Here $P_i$ is zero because the electric potential energy at the initial stage is zero so

$\Delta P = k * \frac{q_1 * q_2 }{R} - 0$

$\frac{1}{2} * m * \frac{1}{4} * v_o ^2 - \frac{1}{2} * m * v_o^2 = k * \frac{q_1 * q_2 }{R} - 0$

=> $\frac{1}{2} * m *v_0^2 [ \frac{1}{4} -1 ] = k * \frac{q_1 * q_2 }{R}$

=> $- \frac{3}{8} * m *v_0^2 = k * \frac{q_1 * q_2 }{R} ---(1 )$

Generally considering from initial position to a position of distance $R_f$ from the nucleus

Here $R_f$ represented the distance of the proton from the nucleus where the velocity is $\frac{1}{4} v_o$

Generally from the law of energy conservation we have that

$\Delta K_f = \Delta P_f$

Here $\Delta K$ is the change in kinetic energy from initial position to a position of distance R from the nucleus , this is mathematically represented as

$\Delta K_f = K_f - K_i$

=> $\Delta K_f = \frac{1}{2} * m * v_2^2 - \frac{1}{2} * m * v_o^2$

=> $\Delta K_f = \frac{1}{2} * m * (\frac{1}{4} * v_o )^2 - \frac{1}{2} * m * v_o^2$

=> $\Delta K_f = \frac{1}{2} * m * \frac{1}{16} * v_o ^2 - \frac{1}{2} * m * v_o^2$

And $\Delta P$ is the change in electric potential energy from initial position to a position of distance $R_f$ from the nucleus , this is mathematically represented as

$\Delta P_f = P_f - P_i$

Here $P_i$ is zero because the electric potential energy at the initial stage is zero so

$\Delta P_f = k * \frac{q_1 * q_2 }{R_f } - 0$

$\frac{1}{2} * m * \frac{1}{8} * v_o ^2 - \frac{1}{2} * m * v_o^2 = k * \frac{q_1 * q_2 }{R_f }$

=> $\frac{1}{2} * m *v_o^2 [-\frac{15}{16} ] = k * \frac{q_1 * q_2 }{R_f }$

=> $- \frac{15}{32} * m *v_o^2 = k * \frac{q_1 * q_2 }{R_f } ---(2)$

Divide equation 2 by equation 1

$\frac{- \frac{15}{32} * m *v_o^2 }{- \frac{3}{8} * m *v_0^2 } } = \frac{k * \frac{q_1 * q_2 }{R_f } }{k * \frac{q_1 * q_2 }{R } }}$

=> $-\frac{15}{32 } * -\frac{8}{3} = \frac{R}{R_f}$

=> $\frac{5}{4} = \frac{R}{R_f}$

=> $R_f = \frac{4}{5} R$

HOW FAR DOES A UNICYCLE TRAVEL AT A SPEED OF 20 M/S FOR 15 SECONDS?

astra-53 [7]

Given:-

Speed of the unicycle = 20 m/s
Time taken = 15 s

To Find: Distance travelled by the unicycle.

We know,

s = vt

where,

s = Distance travelled,
v = Speed &
t = Time taken.

Therefore,

s = (20 m/s)(15 s)

→ s = (20 m)(15)

→ s = 300 m (Ans.)

A 1200 kg car reaches the top of a 100 m high hill at A with a speed vA. What is the value of vA that will allow the car to coas

Pavel [41]

Complete question is:

A 1200 kg car reaches the top of a 100 m high hill at A with a speed vA. What is the value of vA that will allow the car to coast in neutral so as to just reach the top of the 150 m high hill at B with vB = 0 m/s. Neglect friction.

Answer:

(V_A) = 31.32 m/s

Explanation:

We are given;

car's mass, m = 1200 kg

h_A = 100 m

h_B = 150 m

v_B = 0 m/s

From law of conservation of energy,

the distance from point A to B is;

h = 150m - 100 m = 50 m

From Newton's equations of motion;

v² = u² + 2gh

Thus;

(V_B)² = (V_A)² + (-2gh)

(negative next to g because it's going against gravity)

Thus;

(V_B)² = (V_A)² - (2gh)

Plugging in the relevant values;

0² = (V_A)² - 2(9.81 × 50)

(V_A) = √981

(V_A) = 31.32 m/s

What displacement in cm would occur with a 75 N/m spring if you placed a 300 N weight on the spring?

ollegr [7]

Surface tension=75N/m

Weight=300N

$\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto Surface\:Tension=\dfrac{Weight}{Displacement}$

$\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto Displacement=\dfrac{Weight}{Surface\:Tension}$

$\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto Displacement=\dfrac{300}{75}$

$\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto Displacement=4m$

$\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto Displacement=400cm$
