With what maximum precision can its position be ascertained? [hint: ?p=m?v.]

Nana76 [90]

The formula for the momentum is
p = mv
As a consequence of the conservation of energy, there is also the law of conservation of momentum.
So,
Δp = Δmv = mΔv
The maximum precision that the position can be ascertained is less than 100% because of dissipation.

Answer:

0.00493 m/s

Explanation:

T = Temperature of the isotope = 85 nK

R = Gas constant = 8.341 J/mol K

M = Molar mass of isotope = 86.91 g/mol

Root Mean Square speed is given by

$v_r=\sqrt{\dfrac{3RT}{M}}\\\Rightarrow v_r=\sqrt{\dfrac{3\times 8.314\times 85\times 10^{-9}}{86.91\times 10^{-3}}}\\\Rightarrow v_r=0.00493\ m/s$

The Root Mean Square speed is 0.00493 m/s

An unbalanced force of 500 N is applied to a 75 kg object. What is the acceleration of the object?

NemiM [27]

1. Define Newtons second law of motion (this will help put things into perspective)

2.Get the mass of the object (in this case 75 kg)

3.The net force acting on the object...find it (in this case 500 N)

4.Change the equation to F=ma (500=75a)

5.Divide both sides by 75 and that is the acceleration.

An electric pump rated 1.5 KW lifts 200kg of water through a vertical height of 6m in 10 secs: way is the efficiency of the pump

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

80%

Explanation:

Efficiency = Power output / Power input × 100 %

To calculate efficiency we need to find power output of electric pump.

We can use,

Work done = Energy change

Work done per second = Energy change per second

Work done per second = Power

Therefore, Power = Energy change per second

= Change in potential energy of water per second

=mgh / t

= 200× 10×6 / 10

= 1200 W = 1.2 kW

Now use the first equation to find efficiency,

Efficiency = $\frac{1.2}{1.5}$ × 100%

= 80 %
