g An object with mass m=2 kg is completely submerged, and tethered, to the bottom of a large body of water. If the density of th

e water is rhow = 1000 kg/m3and the density of the object is rhoob j=500 kg/m3, find the tension in the rope. Take g=10 m/s2and assume the object has a uniform mass density

Answer:

The tension in the rope is 20 N

Solution:

As per the question:

Mass of the object, M = 2 kg

Density of water, $\rho_{w} = 1000\ kg/m^{3}$

Density of the object, $\rho_{ob} = 500\kg/m^{3}$

Acceleration due to gravity, g = $10\ m/s^{2}$

Now,

From the fig.1:

'N' represents the Bouyant force and T represents tension in the rope.

Suppose, the volume of the block be V:

V = $\frac{M}{\rho_{ob}}$ (1)

Also, we know that Bouyant force is given by:

$N = \rho_{w}Vg$

Using eqn (1):

$N = \rho_{w}\frac{M}{\rho_{ob}}g$

$N = 1000\frac{2}{500}\times 10 = 40\ N$

From the fig.1:

N = Mg + T

40 = 2(10) + T

T = 40 - 20 = 20 N

$N = \rho_{w}Vg$

Kali left school and traveled toward her friend's house at an average speed of 40 km/h. Matt left one hour later and traveled in

zlopas [31]

Answer:

t = 5 hr

Explanation:

Let kali moves toward east with velocity= V₁= 40 km/ h

Mat moves toward west with velocity = V₂= 50 km/hr

As Klai left one hour earlier = t₁= 1 hr

distance traveled in 1st hour = s₁ = v * t = 40 * 1 = 40 km

Remaining distance = 400 - 40 = 360 km

As they move in the opposite directions:

Relative speed= 40 + 50 = 90 km/ h

s = v * t

⇒ t = s / v

⇒ t₂ = 360 / 90

⇒ t₂ = 4 hr

Total time = t = t₁ + t₂

t = 1 hr + 4 hr

t = 5 hr

A 13.5 μF capacitor is connected to a power supply that keeps a constant potential difference of 24.0 V across the plates. A pie

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Capacitance of the capacitor = 13.5μF

Voltage across plate is 24V

Dielectric constant k=3.55.

a. Energy in capacitor is given by

E=1/2CV^2

We want to calculate energy without the dielectric substance

Given that C=13.5 μF and V=24V

The capacitance give is with dielectric so we need to remove it

C=kCo

Co=C/k

Then the Co=13.5μF/3.55

Co=3.803μF

Then

E=(1/2)×3.803×10^-6×24^2

E=1.1×10^-3J

E=1.1mJ

b. Energy in capacitor is given by

E=1/2CV^2

The capacitance given is with a dielectric, so we are going to apply it direct.

Given that C=13.5 μF and V=24V

Then

E=(1/2)×13.5×10^-6×24^2

E=3.89×10^-3J

E=3.9mJ

c. The energy without dielectric is 1.1mJ and the energy with dielectric is 3.9mJ

The energy increase when the dielectric material is added

d. Dielectrics in capacitors serve three purposes: to keep the conducting plates from coming in contact, allowing for smaller plate separations and therefore higher capacitances;

Therefore, Since dielectric allow higher capacitance, and energy of a capacitor is directly proportional to the capacitance, then the higher the capacitance the higher the energy.

An electron in the n = 7 level of the hydrogen atom relaxes to a lower energy level, emitting light of 397 nm. what is the value

Dimas [21]

Answer:

$n_f=2$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Initially, the electron is in n = 7 energy level. When it relaxes to a lower energy level, emitting light of 397 nm. We need to find the value of n for the level to which the electron relaxed. It can be calculate using the formula as :

$\dfrac{1}{\lambda}=R(\dfrac{1}{n_f^2}-\dfrac{1}{n_i^2})$

$\dfrac{1}{397\times 10^{-9}\ m}=R(\dfrac{1}{n_f^2}-\dfrac{1}{(7)^2})$

R = Rydberg constant, $R=1.097\times 10^7\ m^{-1}$

$\dfrac{1}{397\times 10^{-9}\ m}=1.097\times 10^7\ m^{-1}\times (\dfrac{1}{n_f^2}-\dfrac{1}{(7)^2})$

Solving above equation we get the value of final n is,

$n_f=2.04$

or

$n_f=2$

So, it will relax in the n = 2. Hence, this is the required solution.

An x-ray beam of a certain wavelength is incident on a crystal, at 30.7° to a certain family of reflecting planes of spacing 33.

klemol [59]

Answer:

λ=34.068pm

Explanation:

Wavelength λ=2dsinθ

λ=2(33.4pm)sin30.7

λ=2(33.4pm) * 0.510

λ=66.8* sin30.7

λ=66.8*0.510

λ=34.068pm

X-rays are usually produced by charged particles that are accelerating or decelerating such as a beam of electrons striking a metal plate in an X-ray tube.

Review. As an astronaut, you observe a small planet to be spherical. After landing on the planet, you set off, walking always st

To find the mass of the planet we will apply the relationship of the given circumference of the planet with the given data and thus find the radius of the planet. From the kinematic equations of motion we will find the gravitational acceleration of the planet, and under the description of this value by Newton's laws the mass of the planet, that is,

The circumference of the planet is,

$\phi = 25.1m$

Under the mathematical value the radius would be

$\phi = 2\pi r$

$r = \frac{25}{2\pi}$

$r = 3.9788km$

Using second equation of motion

$x = \frac{1}{2} at^2$

Replacing the values given,

$1.4 = \frac{1}{2} a (29.2)^2$

Rearranging and solving for 'a' we have,

$a = 0.003283m/s^2$

Using the value of acceleration due to gravity from Newton's law we have that

$a = \frac{GM}{r^2}$

Here,

r = Radius of the planet

G = Gravitational Universal constant

M = Mass of the Planet

$\frac{(6.67*10^{-11})*M}{(3.9788*10^3)^2} = 0.003283$

$M = 7.79201*10^{14}kg$

Therefore the mass of this planet is $7.79201*10^{14}kg$
