A mass m is attached to a string connected to a force sensor on a rotating platform. The platform’s angular velocity, ω, can be

easily measured, but the linear velocity of the mass cannot. When the mass is at r = 0.20 m and rotates at a constant ω = 8.5 rad/s, a force sensor reads 4.8 N. What is the mass m?

Answer:

The mass m is 0.332 kg or 332 gm

Explanation:

Given

The platform is rotating with angular speed , $\omega =8.5\, \frac{rad}{sec}$

Mass m is moving on platform in a circle with radius , $r=0.20\, m$

Force sensor reading to which spring is attached , $F=4.8\, N$

Now for the mass m to move in circle the required centripetal force is given by $F=m\omega ^{2}r$

=> $4.8=m\times 8.5 ^{2}\times 0.20$

$=>m=0.332\, kg$

Thus the mass m is 0.332 kg or 332 gm

Calculate the separation between the two lowest levels for an O2 molecule in a one-dimensional container of length 5.0 cm. At wh

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

The separation between the two lowest levels = $1.24 * 10^{-39}J$

The values of n where the energy of molecule reaches 1/2 kT at 300K = $2.2 * 10^{9}$

The separation at this level = 1.8 * $10^{-30}$ J

Explanation:

Knowing the formula

En = $\frac{n^{2} h^{2} }{8 mL^{2} }$

Mass of oxygen molecule

m (O2) = 32 amu * $\frac{1.6605 * 10^{-27 kg} }{1 amu}$

So the energy diference between the two lowest levels:

E2 - E1 = $\frac{3h^{2} }{8mL^{2} }$

E2 - E1 = $\frac{3 * (6.626 * 10^{-34} Js)^{2} } {8 * 32 amu * (\frac{1.6605 * 10^{-27 kg} }{1 amu})* (5*10^{-2})^{2} } = 1.24 * 10^{-39}J$

Now we should find n where the energy of molecule reaches 1/2 kT

En = $\frac{n^{2} h^{2} }{8 mL^{2} }$ = $\frac{1}{2}kT$

$\frac{h^{2} }{8 mL^{2} }$ = $4.13 * 10^{-14}J$

$n^{2} * (4.13 * 10^{-14}J) = \frac{1}{2} (1.38 * 10^{-23}JK^{-1}) * 300K$

$n = 2.2 * 10^{9}$

by the end is necessary to calculate the separation of the level

En - En-1 = $(n^{2} - (n - 1)^{2}) * \frac{h^{2} }{8 mL^{2} }$

= 1.8 * $10^{-30}$ J

Very easy physics maths about current and other stuffs only one question please help me

Reil [10]

Answer:

The total voltage of the circuit is 18 volts.

Explanation:

We have, three identical resistors of resistance 3 ohms are connected in series in a circuit.

For a series combination, the equivalent resistance is given by the sum of individual resistances i.e.

$R_{eq}=R_1+R_2+R_3\\\\R_{eq}=3+3+3\\\\R_{eq}=9\ \Omega$

Let V is the voltage of the battery if the current in the circuit is 2 A. So,

$V=IR$

$V=2\times 9\\\\V=18\ V$

So, the total voltage of the circuit is 18 volts.

PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS PROBLEM

1) The mass of the continent is $2.13\cdot 10^{21} kg$

2) The kinetic energy of the continent is 274.8 J

3) The speed of the jogger must be 2.76 m/s

Explanation:

1)

The continent is a slab of side 5900 km (so the surface is 5900 x 5900, assuming it is a square) and depth 26 km, therefore its volume is:

$V=(36)(4600)^2=7.62\cdot 10^8 km^3 = 7.62\cdot 10^{17} m^3$

The mass of the continent is given by

$m=\rho V$

where:

$\rho = 2790 kg/m^3$ is its density

$V=7.62\cdot 10^{17} m^3$ is its volume

Substituting, we find the mass:

$m=(2790)(7.62\cdot 10^{17})=2.13\cdot 10^{21} kg$

2)

To find the kinetic energy, we need to convert the speed of the continent into m/s first.

The speed is

v = 1.6 cm/year

And we have:

1.6 cm = 0.016 m

$1 year = (365)(24)(60)(60)=3.15\cdot 10^7 s$

So, the speed is

$v=\frac{0.016 m}{3.15 \cdot 10^7 s}=5.08\cdot 10^{-10}m/s$

Now we can find the kinetic energy of the continent, which is given by

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

$m=2.13\cdot 10^{21} kg$ is the mass

$v=5.08\cdot 10^{-10}m/s$ is the speed

Substituting,

$K=\frac{1}{2}(2.13\cdot 10^{21})(5.08\cdot 10^{-10})^2=274.8 J$

3)

The jogger in this part has the same kinetic energy of the continent, so

K = 274.8 J

And its mass is

m = 72 kg

We can write his kinetic energy as

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

v is the speed of the man

And solving the equation for v, we find his speed:

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(274.8)}{72}}=2.76 m/s$
