Answer:

<em>dV =3.39x10^-38 m/s</em>

Explanation:

Consider a 2250-lb automobile clocked by law-enforcement radar at a speed of 85.5 mph (miles/hour). if the position of the car is known to within 5.0 feet at the time of the measurement, what is the uncertainty in the velocity of the car?

According to the Heisenberg uncertainty law  which states tat te

product of uncertainty in position and uncertainty in momentum will be constant

\Delta x . \Delta P = \frac{h}{4\pi}

\Delta x . m \Delta v = \frac{h}{4\pi}

Mass(automobile)= 2150 lbs

1lbs=0.453592kg so:

2250 lbs= 1020.3 kg

Uncertainty(delta X)= 5ft

1ft= 0.3048m so:

5ft= 1.524m

h= Planck's constant = 6.62606957 × 10-34 m2 kg / s

(delta V) = (delta P)/ Mass

Solving the original equation we get:

(delta V) = h/( (4pi)(Mass)(delta X) )

= (6.626X10^-34)/( (4pi)( 1020.3 kg )(1.524m)

dV =3.39x10^-38 m/s

the uncertainty in the velocity of the car is dV =3.39x10^-38 m/s

As per law of Heisenberg uncertainty law

product of uncertainty in position and uncertainty in momentum will be constant

\Delta x . \Delta P = \frac{h}{4\pi}

\Delta x . m \Delta v = \frac{h}{4\pi}

now plug in all data

(5\times 0.3048). (2250 \times 0.454) \Delta v = \frac{6.6 \times 10^{-34}}{4\pi}

\Delta v = 3.37 \times 10^{-38} m/s

So above is the uncertainty in velocity of the object

A 2400W electric toaster is connected to a standard 120 V wall outlet. A family
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

1)  energy = 15.6 kWh,  2)    total_cost = $ 2.03

Explanation:

1) The energy dissipated is the product of the power and the time of use In a month it was used t = 6.5 h and the power of the toaster is

P = 2400 W = 2,400 kW

       energy = P  t

       energy = 2,400  6.5

        energy = 15.6  kWh

using rounding to a decimal

        energy = 15.6 kWh

2) The cost of energy is unit_cost = $ 0.13 / kWh

so the total cost

         total_cost = energy    unit_cost

         total_cost = 15.6   0.13

         total_cost = $ 2.028  

rounding to two decimal places

         total_cost = $ 2.03

At a particular instant, a proton at the origin has velocity &lt; 5e4, -2e4, 0&gt; m/s. You need to calculate the magnetic field
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

9.7\times 10^{-5} T

Explanation:

Velocity =5\times 10^4i-2\times 10^4j

r=0.03i+0.05j

r=\mid r\mid=\sqrt{(0.03)^2+(0.05)^2}=0.058

v=\mid V\mid=\sqrt{(5\times 10^4)^2+(-2\times 10^{4})^2}=5.39\times 10^{2}

We know that

B=\frac{mv}{qr}

Where q=1.6\times 10^{-19} C

Mass of proton=1.67\times 10^{-27} kg

Using the formula

B=\frac{1.67\times 10^{-27}\times 5.39\times 10^2}{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.058}

B=9.7\times 10^{-5} T
