For two un-related quantities, the Heisenberg uncertainty equations holds: the prduct of the two uncertainty quantities is greater than \hbar/2
Example of unrelated quantities are position and momentum, energy and time. 
Thus
\Delta x*\Delta p  \ \textgreater \ \hbar/2
Knowing the speed of the bacteria the uncertainty in its position is
\Delta x \ \textgreater \ \hbar/(2 \Delta p) =\hbar/(2mv)

Answer:

A. quality of road-making material

Explanation:

The CBR method of flexible pavement design gives an idea about the:

A. quality of road-making material

B. traffic intensities

C. characteristics of soil

D. All of the above

The California Bearing Ratio (CBR) test is a penetration test used to evaluate the subgrade strength of roads and pavements. The results of these tests are used with the curves to determine the thickness of pavement and its component layers. it is the measure of the resistance of a material against the penetration of a standard plunger.

This can be used to determine the quality of road making material. CBR is expressed as the percentage of the actual load to the standard load.

A microwave oven operates at 2.50 GHzGHz . What is the wavelength of the radiation produced by this appliance? Express the wavel
sattari [20]

Answer:

The wavelength is \lambda  =  1.2  * 10^8 nm

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The frequency of operation of the microwave is  f =  2.50 GHz  =  2.50 *10^{9} \ Hz

     Generally the wavelength is mathematically represented as

          \lambda  =  \frac{c}{f}

Here c is the speed of light with value c =  3.0 *10^{8} \  m/s

So  

         \lambda  =  \frac{3.0 *10^{8}}{  2.50 *10^{9}}

=>       \lambda  =  0.12 \  m

converting to nanometer

           \lambda  =  1.2  * 10^8 nm

A single sports fan is capable of yelling at an intensity level of 80 decibels from a given distance. If 10,000 similar fans wer
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is part 'c' 160 dB

Explanation:

When noise levels of different intensities are superimposed the resultant intensity is given by the equation

L_{avg}=20log(\frac{1}{N}\sum_{i=1}^{N}(10^{\frac{L_{i}}{20}}))\\

where,

L_{i} is the intensity of a general sound level

Since we have 10000 fans each producing sound of 80dB thus the resultant intensity is given using the above formula as

L_{avg}=20log(\frac{1}{10000}\sum_{i=1}^{10000}(10^{\frac{80}{20}}))\\

\therefore L_{eq}=160dB
