Suppose an oxygen molecule traveling at this speed bounces back and forth between opposite sides of a cubical vessel 0.17 m on a

Answer: The last part of the question has some details missing which is ; (Assume that the molecule's velocity is perpendicular to the two sides that it strikes.) molecule v=482 m/s molecule momentum=2.56 x 10^(-23)

Explanation:

  • The momentum of the molecule is 2.56 x 10^(-23) .
  • Particle hits the wall and bounces.
  • Momentum is reversed. Change in momentum = impulse
  • This is Force x time.
  • Momentum change happens at a wall after each trip.

  • time required = distance /speed

  • = 0.17 X 2/(482 m/s)

  • Average force = impulse / time

  • = 2 x 482 x 2.56 x 10^(-23) / (0.17 x 2)

  • = 7.76 x 10^20N, is the average force the molecule exerts on one of the walls of the container.

2. How does the medium vibrate in a transverse wave?
stiv31 [10]

ANSWER :

(A) AT RIGHT ANGLES TO THE DIRECTION THE WAVE TRAVELS.

EXPLANATION :

TRANSVERSE WAVES IS THAT IN WHICH THE PARTICLES VIBRATE WITH AN UP-AND-DOWN MOTION. THE PARTICLES IN A TRANSVERSE WAVE MOVE ACROSS OR PERPENDICULAR TO THE DIRECTION THAT THE WAVE IS TRAVELING OR AT RIGHT ANGLES TO THE DIRECTION THE WAVE TRAVELS.

28. (a) A daredevil is attempting to jump his motorcycle over a line of buses parked end to end by driving up a 32° ramp at a sp
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

a) # buses = 7  

Explanation:

For this exercise we use the kinematic equations, let's find the time it takes to reach the same height

   

     y =v_{oy}  t - ½ g t²

Let's decompose the speed, with trigonometry

      v₀ₓ = v₀ cos θ

      v_{oy} = v₀ sin  θ

      v₀ₓ = 40 cos 32

      v₀ₓ = 33.9 m / s

      v_{oy} = 40 sin32

      v_{oy} = 21.2 m / s

When it arrives it is at the same initial height y = 0

         0 = (v_{oy} - ½ gt) t

That has two solutions

       t = 0                    when it comes out

       t = 2 v_{oy} / g       when it arrives

       t = 2 21.2 /9.8

       t = 4,326 s

We use the horizontal displacement equation

       x = vox t

       x = 33.9   4.326

       x = 146.7 m

To find the number of buses we can use a direct proportions rule

    # buses = 146.7 / 20

    # buses = 7.3

    # buses = 7

The distance of the seven buses is

     L = 20 * 7 = 140 m

b) let's look for the scope for this jump

     R = vo2 sin2T / g

     R = 40 2 without 2 32 /9.8

     R = 146.7 m

As we can see the range and distance needed to pass the seven (7) buses is different there is a margin of error of 6.7 m in favor of the jumper (security)

A planet in our solar system is located far from the sun describe the size and composition of the planet
Brilliant_brown [7]
Well first we can tell that it will be very cold. For ex. Earth is fairly close to the sun. It gets pretty hot whenever the sun is out. Therefore we know being closer to the sun creates warmth on the planet.  And as you can see on the picture of the solar system I attached, it seems as if the planet gets bigger the further away from the sun. So I would appose cold and big. <span />

The net force on a 13 kg cart is 4.6 N backward.
Illusion [34]

Divide the net force by the mass:

<em>a</em> = (4.6 N) / (13 kg) ≈ 0.35 m/s²

also pointing backward, which looks like option B, but hard to say for sure since it's missing a decimal point.
