Physics
1 answer:
sineoko [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: There is an unsolved mystery surrounding Titan's atmosphere: Because methane is broken down by sunlight, scientists believe there is another source that replenishes what is lost. One potential source of methane is volcanic activity, but this has yet to be confirmed.

"A steel rotating-beam test specimen has an ultimate strength of 120 kpsi. Estimate the life of the specimen if it is tested at
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

life (N) of the specimen is 117000  cycles

Explanation:

given data

ultimate strength Su = 120 kpsi

stress amplitude σa = 70 kpsi

solution

we first calculate the endurance limit of specimen Se i.e

Se = 0.5× Su   .............1

Se = 0.5 × 120

Se = 60 kpsi

and we know strength of friction f  = 0.82

and we take endurance limit Se is = 60 kpsi

so here coefficient value (a) will be

a = \frac{(f\times Su)^2}{Se}     ......................1  

put here value and we get

a = \frac{(0.82\times 120)^2}{60}  

a = 161.4  kpsi

so coefficient value (b) will be

b = -\frac{1}{3}log\frac{(f\times Su)}{Se}  

b =  -\frac{1}{3}log\frac{(0.82\times 120)}{60}  

b = −0.0716

so here number of cycle N will be  

N =  (\frac{ \sigma a}{a})^{1/b}

put here value  and we get

N =  (\frac{ 70}{161.4})^{1/-0.0716}

N = 117000

so life (N) of the specimen is 117000  cycles

If the half-life of tritium (hydrogen-3) is 12.3 years, how much of
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

0.0000076 grams

Explanation:

We're given the half life of Tritium to be 12.3 years. In order to find out the amount of substabce remaining:

Let's first find how many 'half lives' are in 250 years.

n =  \frac{250}{12.3}  = 20.325

Now what is half life? It means the time taken for a given quantity of an element to lose half it's mass.

So in 12.3 years we can find that The amount of 250 g of Tritium will be 250/2 = 125 g. In 24.6 years we'll have 125/2 = 62.5 g

So now we can devise a formula:

m =  \frac{original \: amount}{ {2}^{n} }

Where m is the remaining amount and n is th number of half lives in the time given.

Using this formula we can calculate:

m =  \frac{10}{ {2}^{20.325} }

Doing this calculation we get:

m = 0.0000076 \: g

As we can see a very small value remains.

A mass of 5kg accelerates at 3m/s/s, how much force was put on it?
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

15N

Explanation:

According to Newton's Second Law of Motion

F = m*a

mass = m = 5Kg

acceleration = a = 3m/s^2

=> F = 5kg * 3m/s^2

=> F = 15 N

A block of ice at 0 degrees C, whose mass is initially 62 kg, slides along a horizontal surface, starting at a speed of 5.48 m/s
Kryger [21]

The mass of ice melted as a result of friction between the ice and the horizontal surface is 2.78g

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given,

Temperature, T = 0°C

Initial mass, Mi = 62kg

Speed, s = 5.48m/s

Distance, x = 26.8m

Friction is present.

Mass of ice melted = ?

We know,

The amount of energy required for the melting of ice is exactly equal to the initial kinetic energy of the block of ice

and

            Kinetic Energy, KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Therefore,    KE = \frac{62 X  5.48 X 5.48}{2}

KE = 930.94 Joules

Ice melting lateral heat is  334 kJ/kg = 334000 J/kg.

Therefore, the melted mass of the ice = 930.94 / 334000 = 0.00278 kg = 2.78 g.

Thus, The mass of ice melted as a result of friction between the ice and the horizontal surface is 2.78g
