Two objects are dropped from different heights at the same instant. If the first object takes 10.7 seconds to hit the ground and

the second takes 14.8 seconds what was the difference in their original heights?

Answer:

The answer to your question is : 521.8 m

Explanation:

Data:

Different heights

Time first object (tfo) = 10.7 s

Time second object (tso)= 14.8 s

Initial speed of both objects(vo) = 0 m/s

a = 9.81 m/s²

Formula:

h = vot + 1/2 (a)(t)² but vo = 0 so, h = 1/2 (a)(t)²

Then, height fo h = 1/2 (9.81)(10.7)² = 561.6 m

height so h = 1/2(9,81)(14.8)² = 1074.4 m

Difference in their heights = 1074.4 m - 561.6 m = 521.8 m

The wave function for a particle must be normalizable because:________ a. the particle's angular momentum must be conserved. b.

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

C the particle must be somewhere.

Explanation:

This is because normalization of wave function means the maximum probability of finding a particle in a region is 1. And a Wave function describes the probability of finding a particle in region. Also Since it is a probability distribution, its integral over all space must be 1, explaining that the probability that the particle is somewhere and thus it must integrate to 1, meaning it must be it must be normalizable

The British gold sovereign coin is an alloy of gold and copper having a total mass of 7.988 g, and is 22-karat gold 24 x (mass o

matrenka [14]

Answers:

(a) $0.0073kg$

(b) Volume gold: $3.79(10)^{-7}m^{3}$ , Volume cupper: $7.6(10)^{-8}m^{3}$

(c) $17633.554kg/m^{3}$

Explanation:

<h2>(a) Mass of gold </h2><h2 />

We are told the total mass $M$ of the coin, which is an alloy of gold and copper is:

$M=m_{gold}+m_{copper}=7.988g=0.007988kg$ (1)

Where $m_{gold}$ is the mass of gold and $m_{copper}$ is the mass of copper.

In addition we know it is a 22-karat gold and the relation between the number of karats $K$ and mass is:

$K=24\frac{m_{gold}}{M}$ (2)

Finding ${m_{gold}$ :

$m_{gold}=\frac{22}{24}M$ (3)

$m_{gold}=\frac{22}{24}(0.007988kg)$ (4)

$m_{gold}=0.0073kg$ (5) This is the mass of gold in the coin

<h2>(b) Volume of gold and cupper</h2><h2 />

The density $\rho$ of an object is given by:

$\rho=\frac{mass}{volume}$

If we want to find the volume, this expression changes to: $volume=\frac{mass}{\rho}$

For gold, its volume $V_{gold}$ will be a relation between its mass $m_{gold}$ (found in (5)) and its density $\rho_{gold}=19.30g/cm^{3}=19300kg/m^{3}$ :

$V_{gold}=\frac{m_{gold}}{\rho_{gold}}$ (6)

$V_{gold}=\frac{0.0073kg}{19300kg/m^{3}}$ (7)

$V_{gold}=3.79(10)^{-7}m^{3}$ (8) Volume of gold in the coin

For copper, its volume $V_{copper}$ will be a relation between its mass $m_{copper}$ and its density $\rho_{copper}=8.96g/cm^{3}=8960kg/m^{3}$ :

$V_{copper}=\frac{m_{copper}}{\rho_{copper}}$ (9)

The mass of copper can be found by isolating $m_{copper}$ from (1):

$M=m_{gold}+m_{copper}$

$m_{copper}=M-m_{gold}$ (10)

Knowing the mass of gold found in (5):

$m_{copper}=0.007988kg-0.0073kg=0.000688kg$ (11)

Now we can find the volume of copper:

$V_{copper}=\frac{0.000688kg}{8960kg/m^{3}}$ (12)

$V_{copper}=7.6(10)^{-8}m^{3}$ (13) Volume of copper in the coin

<h2>(c) Density of the sovereign coin</h2><h2 />

Remembering density is a relation between mass and volume, in the case of the coin the density $\rho_{coin$ will be a relation between its total mass $M$ and its total volume $V$ :

$\rho_{coin}=\frac{M}{V}$ (14)

Knowing the total volume of the coin is:

$V=V_{gold}+V_{copper}=3.79(10)^{-7}m^{3}+7.6(10)^{-8}m^{3}=4.53(10)^{-7}m^{3}$ (15)

$\rho_{coin}=\frac{0.007988kg}{4.53(10)^{-7}m^{3}}$ (16)

Finally:

$\rho_{coin}=17633.554kg/m^{3}}$ (17) This is the total density of the British sovereign coin

The length of a cylindrical axon is 8 cm and its radius of 8μm,and the thickness of the membrane is 0.01μm,dielectric constant (

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

9.965 nF

Explanation:

The capacitance of the axon C = εA/d where ε = dielectric constant = 24.78 × 10⁻¹² F/m, A = surface area of axon = 2πrL where r = radius of axon = 8 μm = 8 × 10⁻⁶ m and L = length of axon = 8 cm = 8 × 10⁻² m and d = thickness of membrane = 0.01 μm = 0.01 × 10⁻⁶ m

So, C = εA/d

C = ε2πrL/d

Substituting the of the values variables into the equation, we have

C = ε2πrL/d

C = 24.78 × 10⁻¹² F/m × 2π × 8 × 10⁻⁶ m × 8 × 10⁻² m/0.01 × 10⁻⁶ m

C = 9964.63 × 10⁻²⁰ Fm/0.01 × 10⁻⁶ m

C = 996463 × 10⁻¹⁴ F

C = 9.96463 × 10⁻⁹ F

C = 9.96463 nF

C ≅ 9.965 nF

Which two points on the wave shown in the diagram below are in phase with each other?

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

4. B and D

Explanation:

Two points along a transverse wave (such as the one in the figure) are said to be in phase when:

- the vertical position of the two points is the same

- The oscillation of the wave is going in the same way for both points

Basically, we say that two points are in phase when they are separated by a complete cycle (one complete oscillation) of the wave.

For this wave, we see that point B and C have same displacement, but they are not in phase since in B the oscillation is going down while in C is going up.

Instead, B and D are in phase, because they are separated by one complete cycle: both points have same displacement and the oscillation is going in the same way for both of them.
