How to create a water ripple experiment

1 answer:

5 0

I once had to create a water ripple experiment. I took a tote covered the bottom with rocks then filled the tote half way full with water. i made a ramp out of a shoebox or similar and took a bouncy ball and rolled it down the ramp. The thing I should have done is have something so you could tell how strong the wave was.

I don't know if your teacher would take this When I did it we were talking about natural disasters so ask your teacher first!

Uranium-235 decays to thorium-231 with a half-life of 700 million years. When a rock was formed, it contained 6400 million urani

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

proof in explanation

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the number of half-lives:

$n = \frac{t}{t_{1/2}}$

where,

n = no. of half-lives = ?

t = total time passed = 2100 million years

$t_{1/2}$ = half-life = 700 million years

Therefore,

$n = \frac{2100\ million\ years}{700\ million\ years}\\\\n = 3$

Now, we will calculate the number of uranium nuclei left ( $n_u$ ):

$n_u = \frac{1}{2^{n} }(total\ nuclei)\\\\n_u = \frac{1}{2^{3} }(6400\ million)\\\\n_u = \frac{1}{8}(6400\ million)\\\\n_u = 800\ million$

and the rest of the uranium nuclei will become thorium nuclei ( $u_{th}$ )

$n_{th} = total\ nuclei - n_u\\n_{th} = 6400\ million-800\ million\\n_{th} = 5600\ million$

dividing both:

$\frac{n_{th}}{n_u}=\frac{5600\ million}{800\ million} \\\\n_{th} = 7n_u$

<u>Hence, it is proven that after 2100 million years there are seven times more thorium nuclei than uranium nuclei in the rock.</u>

Two pipes of equal length are each open at one end. Each has a fundamental frequency of 470 Hz at 310 K. In one pipe the air tem

Tresset [83]

Answer:

Given:

Fundamental frequency: 470Hz

T1:310k,T2:315k

Calculating velocity

Recall v=(331m/s)✓[T1/273k)

V=331✓(310/273)

V1=331*(1.0656)=352.72m/s

V2=331✓(315/273)=355.5m/s

Fundamental frequency=4L

F2=F1(V2/V1)

F2=470(355.5/352.72)=474.4Hz

Beat=[F2-F1]=474.4-470=4.4Hz

If a steady-state heat transfer rate of 3 kW is conducted through a section of insulating material 1.0 m2 in cross section and 2

kaheart [24]

Answer:

$\Delta T = \frac{3000 W *0.025 m}{1 m^2 (0.2 \frac{W}{mK})}= 375 K$

So then the difference of temperature across the material would be $\Delta T = 375 K$

Explanation:

For this case we can use the Fourier Law of heat conduction given by the following equation:

$Q = -kA \frac{\Delta T}{\Delta x}$ (1)

Where k = thermal conductivity = 0.2 W/ mK

A= 1m^2 represent the cross sectional area

Q= 3KW represent the rate of heat transfer

$\Delta T$ is the temperature of difference that we want to find

$\Delta x=2.5 cm =0.025 m$ represent the thickness of the material

If we solve $\Delta T$ in absolute value from the equation (1) we got:

$\Delta T =\frac{Q \Delta x}{Ak}$

First we convert 3KW to W and we got:

$Q= 3 KW* \frac{1000W}{1 Kw}= 3000 W$

And we have everything to replace and we got:

$\Delta T = \frac{3000 W *0.025 m}{1 m^2 (0.2 \frac{W}{mK})}= 375 K$

So then the difference of temperature across the material would be $\Delta T = 375 K$
