Sylvia and Jadon now want to work a problem. Imagine a puck of mass 0.5 kg moving as in the simulation. Suppose that the tension

in the string is 1.0 N, and that the radius of its circular path is 0.7 m. What will Jadon and Sylvia find for the tangential speed of the puck? m/s

Answer:

1.2 m/s

Explanation:

The puck in this problem is moving with uniform circular motion, so the net force acting on it (the tension in the string) must be equal to the centripetal force.

So we can write:

T=m\frac{v^2}{r}

where:

T is the tension in the string

m is the mass of the puck

v is its tangential speed

r is the radius of the circular path

For the puck in this problem, we have:

m = 0.5 kg

T = 1.0 N

r = 0.7 m

Substituting and solving for v, we find the tangential speed:

v=\sqrt{\frac{Tr}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{(1.0)(0.7)}{0.5}}=1.2 m/s

To solve this problem we will use the concepts related to Magnification. Magnification is the process of enlarging the apparent size, not physical size, of something. This enlargement is quantified by a calculated number also called "magnification".

The overall magnification of microscope is

M = \frac{Nl}{f_ef_0}

Where

N = Near point

l = distance between the object lens and eye lens

f_0= Focal length

f_e= Focal of eyepiece

Given that the minimum distance at which the eye is able to focus is about 25cm we have that N = 25cm

Replacing,

M = \frac{25*10}{3*5}

M = 16.67\approx 17\\

Therefore the correct answer is C.

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

t= 1.2 hours

Explanation:

Define first di distance between the points, so

\bar{x}_{canoe}=2*(2+3)=10

\bar{x}_{water}=2*2=4

The distance is

d= \bar{x}_{canoe}- \bar{x}_{water}

d= 10-4 = 6miles

t = \frac{x}{v} = \frac{6}{2+3}

t= 1.2 hours

Choose the sources of gamma rays. Check all that apply.
harina [27]

Answer:

a. Stars all warm objects

c. Some unstable atomic nuclei

Explanation:

Gamma rays are photons of very high energy (beyond 100keV) enough to remove an electron from its orbit.

They have a very short wavelength, less than 5 meters from the peak, and can be produced by nuclear decay, especially in the breasts of massive stars at the end of life.

They were discovered by the French chemist Paul Villard (1860 to 1934).

While X-rays are produced by electronic transitions in general caused by the collision of an electron with an atom at high speed, gamma rays are produced by nuclear transitions.

 Gamma rays produce damage similar to those caused by X-rays or ultraviolet rays (burns, cancer and genetic mutations).

The sources of gamma rays that we observe in the universe come from <u>massive stars (hypernovas) or some warm objects on the space</u> that end their lives by a gravitational collapse that leads to the formation of a neutron star or a black hole, as well as <u>unstable radioactive nuclei </u>that emit radiation gamma to reach its steady state.
