Answer:

82.8986 km

Explanation:

Given:

Pressure = 7.00×10⁻¹³ atm

Since , 1 atm = 101325 Pa

So, Pressure = 7.00×10⁻¹³×101325 Pa = 7.09275×10⁻⁸ Pa

Radius = 2.00×10⁻¹⁰ m

Diameter = 4.00×10⁻¹⁰ m (2× Radius)

Temperature = 303 K

The expression for mean free path is:

\lambda (Mean\ free\ path)=\frac {K (Boltzmann\ Constant)\times Temperature}{\sqrt {2}\times \pi\times (Diameter)^2\times Pressure}

Boltzmann Constant = 1.38×10⁻²³ J/K

So,

\lambda (Mean\ free\ path)=\frac {1.38\times 10^{-23}\times 303}{\sqrt {2}\times \frac {22}{7}\times (4.00\times 10^{-10})^2\times 7.09275\times 10^{-8}}

<u>Mean free path = 82.8986×10³ m = 82.8986 km</u>

Which times and distances are represented by the function? select three options. the starting distance, at 0 hours, is 300 miles
Naya [18.7K]

The times and distances are represented by the function are

  • at 2 hours, the traveler is 725 miles from home.
  • at 3 hours, the distance is constant, at 875 miles
  • the total distance from home after 6 hours is 1,062.5 miles.

<h3>What is distance?</h3>

The distance is the length of path travelled by a body when moving with some speed and taking time t.

Given function is

D (t) = 300t +125 for 0≤t<2.5

D (t) = 875  for 2.5 ≤t≤3.5

D(t)= 75t +612.5 for 3.5<t≤6

According to the given function, for 2 hours, the traveler will travel from home,

D (2) = 300x2 +125 = 725 miles.

For time between 2.5 to 3.5 hr, the distance is constant i.e. 875 miles.

For total time 6hr, the distance travelled will be

D(6) = 75 x 6 +612.5 = 1062.5 miles.

Thus, the correct options are picked up.

A rifle with a weight of 25 N fires a 4.5-g bullet with a speed of 240 m/s. (a) Find the recoil speed of the rifle. m/s (b) If a
asambeis [7]

Answer:

The recoil speed of the man and rifle is v_{man}=0.016 ms^{-1}.

Explanation:

The expression for the force in terms of mg is as follows;

F=mg

Here, m is the mass and acceleration due to gravity.

Rearrange the expression for mass.

m=\frac{F}{g}

Calculate the combined mass of the man and rifle.

m_{man,rifle}=\frac{650+25}{g}

Put g=9.8 ms^{-2}.

m_{man,rifle}=\frac{650+25}{9.8}

m_{man,rifle}=68.88 kg

The expression for the conservation of momentum is as follows as;

m_{man}u_{man}+m_{bullet}u_{bullet}=m_{man}v_{man}+m_{rifle}v_{man,rifle}

Here, m_{man,rifle} is the mass of the man and rifle,  m_{rifle} is the mass of the rifle,u_{man},u{bullet}  are the initial velocities of the man and bullet and v_{man},v{man,rifle} are the final velocities of the man and rifle and rifle.

It is given in the problem that a rifle with a weight of 25 N fires a 4.5-g bullet with a speed of 240 m/s.

Convert mass of rifle from gram to kilogram.

m_{bullet}=4.5 g

m_{bullet}=.0045 kg

Put m_{bullet}=.0045 kg,m_{man,rifle}=68.88 kg , u_{man,rifle}=0, v_{bullet}= 240 ms^{-1} and u_{bullet}=0.

m_{man}(0)+m_{bullet}(0)=(68.88)v_{man,rifle}+(.0045)(240)

0=(68.88)v_{man,rifle}+(.0045)(240)

0=(68.88)v_{man,rifle}+1.08

(68.88)v_{man,rifle}=\frac{-1.08}{68.88}

v_{man,rifle}=-0.016 ms^{-1}  

Therefore, the recoil speed of the man and rifle is v_{man}=0.016 ms^{-1}.

A metal detector used in airports is actually a large coil of wire carrying a small current. Explain how it detects a gun, even
Alexus [3.1K]

<u>Metal detectors work by transmitting an electromagnetic field from the search coil into the ground. Any metal objects (targets) within the electromagnetic field will become energised and retransmit an electromagnetic field of their own. The detector’s search coil receives the retransmitted field and alerts the user by producing a target response. metal detectors are capable of discriminating between different target types and can be set to ignore unwanted targets. </u>

1. Search Coil

The detector’s search coil transmits the electromagnetic field into the ground and receives the return electromagnetic field from a target.

2. Transmit Electromagnetic Field (visual representation only - blue)

The transmit electromagnetic field energises targets to enable them to be detected.

3. Target

A target is any metal object that can be detected by a metal detector. In this example, the detected target is treasure, which is a good (accepted) target.
