A spherical helium filled balloon (B) with a hanging passenger cage being held by a single vertical cable (C) attached to Earth

(Cable is going from the cage to ground). If the total mass of the balloon and the cage is 200 kg and the radius of the balloon is 5 m, how much tension (at least), the cable could be able to support in order to keep the balloon from breaking away. (Density of air is approximately 1.225 kg/m3 .)

Answer:

The tension is $T = 4326.7 \ N$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The total mass is $m = 200 \ kg$

The radius is $r = 5 \ m$

The density of air is $\rho_a = 1.225 \ kg/m^3$

Generally the upward force acting on the balloon is mathematically represented as

$F_N = T + mg$

=> $(\rho_a * V * g ) = T + mg$

=> $T = (\rho_a * V * g ) - mg$

Here V is the volume of the spherical helium filled balloon which is mathematically represented as

$V = \frac{4}{3} * \pi r^3$

=> $V = \frac{4}{3} * 3.142 *(5)^3$

=> $V = 523.67\ m^3$

So

$T = (1.225 * 523.67* 9.8 ) - 200 * 9.8$

$T = 4326.7 \ N$

A photon of wavelength 7.33 pm scatters at an angle of 157° from an initially stationary, unbound electron. What is the de Brogl

Ann [662]

Answer:

4.63 p.m.

Explanation:

The problem given here can be solved by the Compton effect which is expressed as

$\lambda^{'}-\lambda=\frac{h}{m_e c}(1-cos\theta)$

here, $\lambda$ is the initial photon wavelength, $\lambda^{'}$ is the scattered photon wavelength, h is he Planck's constant, $m_e$ is the free electron mass, c is the velocity of light, $\theta$ is the angle of scattering.

Given that, the scattering angle is, $\theta=157^{\circ}$

Putting the respective values, we get

$\lambda^{'}-\lambda=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34} }{9.11\times 10^{-31}\times 3\times 10^{8} } (1-cos157^\circ ) m\\\lambda^{'}-\lambda=2.42\times 10^{-12} (1-cos157^\circ ) m\\\lambda^{'}-\lambda=2.42(1-cos157^\circ ) p.m.$

Therfore,

$\lambda^{'}-\lambda=4.64 p.m.$

Here, the photon's incident wavelength is $\lamda=7.33pm$

So,

$\lambda^{'}=7.33+4.64=11.97 p.m$

From the conservation of momentum,

$\vec{P_\lambda}=\vec{P_{\lambda^{'}}}+\vec{P_e}$

here, $\vec{P_\lambda}$ is the initial photon momentum, $\vec{P_{\lambda^{'}}}$ is the final photon momentum and $\vec{P_e}$ is the scattered electron momentum.

Expanding the vector sum, we get

$P^2_{e}=P^2_{\lambda}+P^2_{\lambda^{'}}-2P_\lambda P_{\lambda^{'}}cos\theta$

Now expressing the momentum in terms of De-Broglie wavelength

$P=h/\lambda$ and putting it in the above equation we get,

$\lambda_{e}=\frac{\lambda \lambda^{'}}{\sqrt{\lambda^{2}+\lambda^{2}_{'}-2\lambda \lambda^{'} cos\theta}}$

Therfore,

$\lambda_{e}=\frac{7.33\times 11.97}{\sqrt{7.33^{2}+11.97^{2}-2\times 7.33\times 11.97\times cos157^\circ }} p.m.\\\lambda_{e}=\frac{87.7401}{18.935} = 4.63 p.m.$

This is the de Broglie wavelength of the electron after scattering.

You have a pendulum clock made from a uniform rod of mass M and length L pivoting around one end of the rod. Its frequency is 1

drek231 [11]

The new oscillation frequency of the pendulum clock is 1.14 rad/s.

The given parameters;

<em>Mass of the pendulum, = M </em>
<em>Length of the pendulum, = L</em>
<em>Initial angular speed, </em> $\omega _i$ <em> = 1 rad/s</em>

The moment of inertia of the rod about the end is given as;

$I_i = \frac{1}{3} ML^2$

The moment of inertia of the rod between the middle and the end is calculated as;

$I_f = \int\limits^L_{L/2} {r^2\frac{M}{L} } \, dr = \frac{M}{3L} [r^3]^L_{L/2} = \frac{M}{3L} [L^3 - \frac{L^3}{8} ] = \frac{M}{3L} [\frac{7L^3}{8} ]= \frac{7ML^2}{24}$

Apply the principle of conservation of angular momentum as shown below;

$I _i \omega _i = I _f \omega _f\\\\\frac{ML^2}{3} (1 \ rad/s)= \frac{7ML^2}{24} \times \omega _f\\\\\frac{24 \times ML^2}{3 \times 7 ML^2} (1 \ rad/s)= \omega _f\\\\1.14 \ rad/s = \omega _f$

Thus, the new oscillation frequency of the pendulum clock is 1.14 rad/s.
