Answer: 42.1

Explanation:

Mass specific metabolic rate of a dolphin can be defined as the rate at which the dolphin consume energy per unit mass of body weight.

R = E/M

Where R = mass specific metabolic rate

E = Energy consumption = 8000kcalsday

M = mass = 190kg

R = 8000kcalsday/190kg

R = 42.1

Two narrow, parallel slits separated by 0.85 mm are illuminated by 600 nm light, and the viewing screen is 2.8 m away from the s
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

Phase difference = pi/4 radians

Explanation:

Given:

- The wavelength of incident light λ = 600 nm

- The split separation d = 0.85 mm

- Distance of screen from split plane L = 2.8 m

Find:

What is the phase difference between the two interfering waves on a screen, at a point 2.5 mm from the central bright fringe?

Solution:

- The phase difference can be evaluated by determining the type of interference that occurs at point y = 2.5 mm above central order. We will use the derived results from Young's double slit experiment.

                                  sin ( Q ) = m*λ /d  

                                  m = d*sin(Q) / λ

- Where, m is the order number and angle Q is the angle for mth order of fringe from central bright fringe.

                                  r = sqrt ( L^2 + 0.0025^ )

Where, r is the distance from split to the interference bright fringe.

                                  r = sqrt(2.8^ + 0.0025^) = 2.8

                                  sin(Q) = 0.0025 / 2.8

Hence.                        m = 0.00085*0.0025 / 2.8*(600*10^-9)

                                   m = 1.26

- We know that constructive interference would occurred at m = 1 and destructive interference @ m = 1.5. They have a phase difference of pi/2 radians.

- The order number lies in between constructive and destructive interference i.e m ≈ 1.25 then the corresponding phase difference = 0.5*(pi/2).

Answer:                  Phase difference = pi/4 radians

A bus travels a distance of 120 km with a speed of 40km per hour and returns with a speed of 30km per hour calculate the average
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

35 km/hr

Explanation:

Average speed = (total of the speed)/(the sets of speeds given)

Direction does not matter in this instance since speed is only magnitude,

Average speed = (30 + 40)/2

Average speed = 70 ÷ 2

= 35 km/hr

Which of the following equations describes Newton’s second law
svp [43]
C.

Newton’s Second Law is F=ma (force is equal to the mass multiplied by acceleration), however, the equation can be rearranged to isolate and calculate mass from force over acceleration. Therefore, m=F/a

A 2.0 kg block has a rope attached to the block on a table and is pulled with a force of 8.0 N. The block accelerated at 2.5m/s^
Masja [62]

Answer:

0.15

Explanation:

Assuming the rope is horizontal, sum the forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

N − mg = 0

N = mg

Sum the forces in the x direction:

∑F = ma

F − Nμ = ma

Substitute:

F − mgμ = ma

mgμ = F − ma

μ = (F − ma) / (mg)

Plug in values:

μ = (8.0 N − 2.0 kg × 2.5 m/s²) / (2.0 kg × 9.8 m/s²)

μ = 0.15
