Answer:

<h2><em>6000 counts per second</em></h2>

Explanation:

If a sample emits 2000 counts per second when the detector is 1 meter from the sample, then;

2000 counts per second = 1 meter ... 1

In order to know the number of counts per second that would be observed when the detector is 3 meters from the sample, we will have;

x count per second = 3 meter ... 2

Solving the two expressions simultaneously for x we will have;

2000 counts per second = 1 meter

x counts per second = 3 meter

Cross multiply to get x

2000 * 3 = 1* x

6000 = x

<em></em>

<em>This shows that 6000 counts per second would be observed when the detector is 3 meters from the sample</em>

Jenise is buying a car for $7,020. The TAVT rate is 9.1%.

djyliett [7]

Answer:

$7,658.82

Explanation:

<u>Sales Tax Calculations:</u>

Sales Tax Amount = Net Price x (Sales Tax Percentage / 100)

Total Price = Net Price + Sales Tax Amount

Net Price: $ 7,020.00

+Sales Tax (9.1%): $ 638.82

Total Price: $ 7,658.82

Therefore, the amount of tax that Jenise has to pay on her car is $7,658.82

Find the wavelength in meters for a transverse mechanical wave with an amplitude of 10 cm and a radian frequency of 20π rad/s if

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

The wavelength of the wave is 20 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Amplitude = 10 cm

Radial frequency $\omega = 20\pi\ rad/s$

Bulk modulus = 40 MPa

Density = 1000 kg/m³

We need to calculate the velocity of the wave in the medium

Using formula of velocity

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{\rho}}$

Put the value into the formula

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{40\times10^{6}}{10^3}}$

$v=200\ m/s$

We need to calculate the wavelength

Using formula of wavelength

$\lambda =\dfrac{v}{f}$

$\lambda=\dfrac{v\times2\pi}{\omega}$

Put the value into the formula

$\lambda=\dfrac{200\times2\pi}{20\pi}$

$\lambda=20\ m$

Hence, The wavelength of the wave is 20 m.

a chamber with a fixed volume of 1.0 meters cubed contains a monatomic gas at 3.00 *10^K. The chamber is heated to a temperature

igomit [66]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Volume of fixed chamber $V=1 m^3$

Initial Temperature $T_1=300 K$

Final Temperature $T_2=400 K$

Heat Supplied $Q=10 J$

From First law of thermodynamics

Change in internal energy of the system is equal to heat added minus work done by the system

$\Delta U=Q-W$

as the volume is fixed therefore work

$W=\int PdV=0$

thus $\Delta U=mc_v\Delta T=Q$

$c_v$ for mono-atomic gas is $12.471 J/K-mol$

$n\times 12.471\times (400-300)=10$

$n=0.008018 mol$

and 1 mole contains $6.022\times 10^{23} molecules$

thus No of molecules $=0.008018\times 6.022\times 10^{23}$

No of molecules $=4.82\times 10^{21} molecules$
