Answer:

1.78×10⁶ C

Explanation:

Using the atomic mass of pluonium atoms (244 g/mol), you can calculate the number of atoms in 47.0 g. Then, knowing that each plutonium atom has 96 protons, you calculate the number of protons in the 47.0 g sample. Finally, using the positive charge of one proton, you calculate the total positive charge in the 47.0 g of plutonium.

<u>1. Number of atoms of plutonium in 47.0 g</u>

Number of moles = mass / atomic mass = 47.0 g / 244 = 0.1926 moles

Number of atoms = number of moles × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms/mol

Number of atoms = 0.1926 mol × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms/mol = 1.15998×10²³ atoms

<u>2. Number of protons</u>

Number of protons = 1.15998×10²³ atoms × 96 protons/atom = 1.11385×10²⁵ protons

<u>3. Charge</u>

<u />

Charge = charge of one proton × number of protons

Charge = 1.602×10⁻¹⁹ C/proton × 1.11385×10²⁵ protons = 1.78×10⁶C

A 190 g glider on a horizontal, frictionless air track is attached to a fixed ideal spring with force constant 160 N/m. At the i

laiz [17]

(a) Let <em>x</em> be the maximum elongation of the spring. At this point, the glider would have zero velocity and thus zero kinetic energy. The total work <em>W</em> done by the spring on the glider to get it from the given point (4.00 cm from equilibrium) to <em>x</em> is

<em>W</em> = - (1/2 <em>kx</em> ² - 1/2 <em>k</em> (0.0400 m)²)

(note that <em>x</em> > 4.00 cm, and the restoring force of the spring opposes its elongation, so the total work is negative)

By the work-energy theorem, the total work is equal to the change in the glider's kinetic energy as it moves from 4.00 cm from equilibrium to <em>x</em>, so

<em>W</em> = ∆<em>K</em> = 0 - 1/2 <em>m</em> (0.835 m/s)²

Solve for <em>x</em> :

- (1/2 (160 N/m) <em>x</em> ² - 1/2 (160 N/m) (0.0400 m)²) = -1/2 (0.190 kg) (0.835 m/s)²

==> <em>x</em> ≈ 0.0493 m ≈ 4.93 cm

(b) The glider attains its maximum speed at the equilibrium point. The work done by the spring as it is stretched away from equilibrium to the 4.00 cm position is

<em>W</em> = - 1/2 <em>k</em> (0.0400 m)²

If <em>v</em> is the glider's maximum speed, then by the work-energy theorem,

<em>W</em> = ∆<em>K</em> = 1/2 <em>m</em> (0.835 m/s)² - 1/2 <em>mv</em> ²

Solve for <em>v</em> :

- 1/2 (160 N/m) (0.0400 m)² = 1/2 (0.190 kg) (0.835 m/s)² - 1/2 (0.190 kg) <em>v</em> ²

==> <em>v</em> ≈ 1.43 m/s

(c) The angular frequency of the glider's oscillation is

√(<em>k</em>/<em>m</em>) = √((160 N/m) / (0.190 kg)) ≈ 29.0 Hz

A solid sphere of radius R is placed at a height of 30 cm on a15 degree slope. It is released and rolls, without slipping, to th

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

The height is $h_c = 42.857$

A circular hoop of different diameter cannot be released from a height 30cm and match the sphere speed because from the conservation relation the speed of the hoop is independent of the radius (Hence also the diameter )

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The height is $h_s = 30 \ cm$

The angle of the slope is $\theta = 15^o$

According to the law of conservation of energy

The potential energy of the sphere at the top of the slope = Rotational kinetic energy + the linear kinetic energy

$mgh = \frac{1}{2} I w^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

Where I is the moment of inertia which is mathematically represented as this for a sphere

$I = \frac{2}{5} mr^2$

The angular velocity $w$ is mathematically represented as

$w = \frac{v}{r}$

So the equation for conservation of energy becomes

$mgh_s = \frac{1}{2} [\frac{2}{5} mr^2 ][\frac{v}{r} ]^2 + \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$mgh_s = \frac{1}{2} mv^2 [\frac{2}{5} +1 ]$

$mgh_s = \frac{1}{2} mv^2 [\frac{7}{5} ]$

$gh_s =[\frac{7}{10} ] v^2$

$v^2 = \frac{10gh_s}{7}$

Considering a circular hoop

The moment of inertial is different for circle and it is mathematically represented as

$I = mr^2$

Substituting this into the conservation equation above

$mgh_c = \frac{1}{2} (mr^2)[\frac{v}{r} ] ^2 + \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

Where $h_c$ is the height where the circular hoop would be released to equal the speed of the sphere at the bottom

$mgh_c = mv^2$

$gh_c = v^2$

$h_c = \frac{v^2}{g}$

Recall that $v^2 = \frac{10gh_s}{7}$

$h_c= \frac{\frac{10gh_s}{7} }{g}$

$= \frac{10h_s}{7}$

Substituting values

$h_c = \frac{10(30)}{7}$

$h_c = 42.86 \ cm$

A recent home energy bill indicates that a household used 475475 kWh (kilowatt‑hour) of electrical energy and 135135 therms for

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,.

A house hold power consumption is

475 KWh

Gas used is

135 thermal gas for month

Given that, 1 thermal = 29.3 KWh

Then,

135 thermal = 135 × 29.3 = 3955.5 KWh

So, total power used is

P = 475 + 3955.5

P =4430.5 KWh

Since 1 hr = 3600 seconds

So, the energy consumed for 1hr is

1KW = 1000W

P = energy / time

Energy = Power × time

E = 4430.5 KWhr × 1000W / KW × 3600s / hr

E = 1.595 × 10^10 J

So, using Albert Einstein relativity equation

E = mc²

m = E / c²

c is speed of light = 3 × 10^8 m/s

m = 1.595 × 10^10 / (3 × 10^8)²

m = 1.77 × 10^-7 kg

Then,

1 kg = 10^6 mg

m = 1.77 × 10^-7 kg × 10^6 mg / kg

m = 0.177mg

m ≈ 0.18 mg
