Answer;

= 2.34 x 10^-4 g pcbs

Explanation;

-A typical smelt has 1.04 ppm of PCB is great lakes.

Therefore;

The amount of PCB in a smelt in great leak can be calculated by multiplying the mass of smelt by the pcbs present in a smelt

= 225 g * ( 1.04/100000)

= 2.34 x10^-4 g pcbs

A crate resting on a horizontal floor (\muμs = 0.61, \muμk = 0.3 ) has a horizontal force F = 49 Newtons applied to the right. T
Darya [45]

Answer:

a = 7.80 m/s²

Explanation:

given,

μs = 0.61

μk = 0.3

F = 49 N

we know,

F = μs m g

m = \dfrac{F}{\mu_s\ g}

m = \dfrac{49}{0.61 \times 9.81}

m = 8.19\ kg

now when the block start moving

F - F_k = F_{net}

F - F_k = ma

a = \dfrac{F}{m}-\dfrac{F_k}{m}

a = \dfrac{F}{m}-\dfrac{\mu_k m g}{m}

a = \dfrac{88}{8.19}-0.3\times 9.8

a = 7.80 m/s²

A submarine periscope uses two totally reflecting 45-45-90 prisms with total internal reflection on the sides adjacent to the 45
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer

Given,

Periscope uses 45-45-90 prisms with total internal reflection adjacent to 45°.

refractive index of water, n_a = 1.33

refractive index of glass, n_g = 1.52

When the light enters the water, water will act as a lens and when we see the object from the periscope the object shown is farther than the usual distance.

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

A) He finds the same value of q / m for different materials , B)      y = ½ (q / m) E L² / v₀ₓ² , C) v = E / B , D)   B = 2.13 10⁻⁶ T, E) For the first part I have two off-center points., For the second part I can center one point but the other is off center

Therefore the third statement is correct

Explanation:

Part A

Thomson's experiments are the first proof that the atoms that until now were considered indivisible were constituted by different elements, in these experiments Thomson himself the ratio q / m of several cathodes and always found the same value, which allowed to establish that In atoms there are two types of particles, some of which are mobile and others are still.

When examining his statements the correct one is: He finds the same value of q / m for different materials

Part B

For this part let's use Newton's second law

        F = ma

        q E = m a

        a = q / m E

We use the kinematic relationship

          y = voy t - ½ to t²

          x = v₀ₓ t

The initial vertical velocity of electrons is zero

           y = ½ a (x / v₀ₓ)²

We replace

           y = ½ (q / m) E L² / v₀ₓ²

Part C

If there is no deflection, the electric and magnetic forces are the same and in the opposite direction

         Fm = Fe

         q v B = q E

          v = E / B

Part D

       

        We replace

        y = ½ (q / m) E L² / (E / B)²

         y = ½ (q / m) L² B² / E

If we do not want any deflection the magnetic field has to return the electrons the amount that they lower y = -4.12 cm

      -4.12 10⁻² = ½ q / m 0.12² B² / 1.1 10³

       -16.97 10⁻⁴ = 6.54 10⁻³ B² q / m

      B² = -2.59 10⁻¹ q / m

      q / m = -1.758 10¹¹ C/ kg

      B = √ 0.259 1.758 10¹¹ = √ 4.55 10⁻¹²

      B = 2.13 10⁻⁶ T

Part E

As the charge that the two particles is different

For the first part I have two off-center points.

For the second part I can center one point but the other is off center

Therefore the third statement is correct

Two samples of water are mixed together.
Anon25 [30]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

A.75°C

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

Let the change in temp of cold water be  x degrees,

while that of  hot water be 100 - x degrees.

Heat exchange =  mcΔt

Ice

Δt = x

m = 0.50 kg

c = 4.18 kJ/kg*°C

Hot water

Δt = 100 - x

m = 1.5 kg

c = 4.18

But;

Heat lost = heat gained

0.50 * c * x = 1.5 * c * (100 - x)          

0.50 *x = 1.5*(100 - x)                          

0.5x = 150 - 1.5x                                  

0.5x + 1.5x = 150 - 1.5x + 1.5x            

2x = 150                                              

x = <u>75° C</u>

Hence; the equilbrium temperature will be 75° C
