Answer:

4 x 10^12 kg Uranium

Explanation:

As we know that 1 gallon = 3.785 L

Amount of Uranium in 1 L sea water = 3 x 10^-6 g

3.535 x 10^20 gallons = 3.535 x 10^20 x 3.785 L = 13.38 x 10^20 L

1 L of sea water contains =  3 x 10^-6 g Uranium

13.38 x 10^20 L of sea water contains = 13.38 x 10^20 x 3 x 10^-6 g Uranium

                                                              = 4 x 10^15 g = 4 x 10^12 kg Uranium

if an object is moving at a constant speed in a changing direction, What is the acceleration of the object (zero or not zero)​
Andreas93 [3]
  • We know, acceleration is the change of velocity by time.
  • Velocity is the speed of an object which also indicates the direction.
  • Hence, acceleration is both dependant upon the speed as well as the direction.
  • So, if an object is moving at a constant speed in a changing direction, the acceleration will also change. It will not be zero.
  • An example is that of uniform circular motion.

Answer:

if an object is moving at a constant speed in a changing direction, the acceleration of the object will not be zero.

An object experiences a net acceleration to the left. Which of the following statements about this object are true? There may be
dedylja [7]

Answer:

  1. When an object experiences acceleration to the left, the net force acting on this object will also be to the left.
  2. If the mass of the object was doubled, it would experience an acceleration of half the magnitude

Explanation:

When an object experiences acceleration to the left, the net force acting on this object will also be to the left.

From Newton's second law of motion, the acceleration of the object is given as;

a = ∑F / m

a = -F / m

The negative value of "a" indicates acceleration to the left

where;

∑F is the net force on the object

m is the mass of the object

At a constant force, F = ma ⇒ m₁a₁ = m₂a₂

If the mass of the object was doubled, m₂ = 2m₁

a₂ = (m₁a₁) / (m₂)

a₂ = (m₁a₁) / (2m₁)

a₂ = ¹/₂(a₁)

Therefore, the following can be deduced from the acceleration of this object;

  1. When an object experiences acceleration to the left, the net force acting on this object will also be to the left.
  2. If the mass of the object was doubled, it would experience an acceleration of half the magnitude

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Average acceleration on first part of the chunk is given as

a_1 = 13.125 m/s^2

Average acceleration on second part of the chunk is given as

a_2 = -13.125 m/s^2

Explanation:

By momentum conservation along x direction we will have

mv_i = \frac{m}{2}v_1 + \frac{m}{2}v_2

so we have

v_1 + v_2 = 2v

v_1 + v_2 = 4.68

also by energy conservation

\frac{1}{2}(\frac{m}{2})v_1^2 + \frac{1}{2}(\frac{m}{2})v_2^2 - \frac{1}{2}mv^2 = 17 J

\frac{1}{4}m(v_1^2 + v_2^2) - \frac{1}{2}mv^2 = 17

(v_1^2 + v_2^2) - 2v^2 = \frac{4}{7.7}(17)

(4.68 - v_2)^2 + v_2^2 - 2v^2 = 8.83

21.9 + 2v_2^2 - 9.36 v_2 - 10.95 = 8.83

2v_2^2 - 9.36v_2 + 2.12 = 0

by solving above equation we will have

v_1 = 4.44 m/s

v_2 = 0.24 m/s

Average acceleration on first part of the chunk is given as

a_1 = \frac{4.44 - 2.34}{0.16}

a_1 = 13.125 m/s^2

Average acceleration on second part of the chunk is given as

a_2 = \frac{0.24 - 2.34}{0.16}

a_2 = -13.125 m/s^2

Consider an experiment in which slow neutrons of momentum ¯hk are scattered by a diatomic molecule; suppose that the molecule is
madreJ [45]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

When we have an object in periodic motion, the amplitude will be the maximum displacement from equilibrium. Take for example, when there’s a back and forth movement of a pendulum through its equilibrium point (straight down), then swings to a highest distance away from the center. This distance will be represented as the amplitude, A. The full range of the pendulum has a magnitude of 2A.

position = amplitude x sine function(angular frequency x time + phase difference)

x = A sin(ωt + ϕ)

x = displacement (m)

A = amplitude (m)

ω = angular frequency (radians/s)

t = time (s)

ϕ = phase shift (radians)

Kindly check the attached image below to see the step by step explanation to the question above.
