Answer:

radiation: energy as electromagnetic waves or as moving subatomic particles, especially high-energy particles which cause ionization.

some radiations are: alpha radiation, beta radiation, gamma radiation, and x radiation. and more

got some info from google

hope it helps:)

The lowest possible temperature in outer space is 3.13 K. What is the rms speed of hydrogen molecules at this temperature? (The

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

$v_{rms} =196.59 m/s$

Given:

Temperature, T = 3.13 K

molar mass of molecular hydrogen, m = 2.02 g/mol = $2.02\times 10^{-3}kg/mol$

Solution:

To calculate the root mean squarer or rms speed of hydrogen molecule, we use the given formula:

$v_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{3TR}{m}}$

where

R = rydberg's constant = 8.314 J/mol-K

Putting the values in the above formula:

$v_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{3\times 3.13\times 8.314}{2.02\times 10^{-3}}}$

$v_{rms} =196.59 m/s$

1) $1.86\cdot 10^6 rad/s^2$

2) 2418 rad/s

3) $27000 m/s^2$

4) 36.3 m/s

Explanation:

The angular acceleration of an object in rotation is the rate of change of angular velocity.

It can be calculated using the following suvat equation for angular motion:

$\theta=\omega_i t +\frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2$

where:

$\theta$ is the angular displacement

$\omega_i$ is the initial angular velocity

t is the time

$\alpha$ is the angular acceleration

In this problem we have:

$\theta=90^{\circ} = \frac{\pi}{2}rad$ is the angular displacement

t = 1.3 ms = 0.0013 s is the time elapsed

$\omega_i = 0$ is the initial angular velocity

Solving for $\alpha$ , we find:

$\alpha = \frac{2(\theta-\omega_i t)}{t^2}=\frac{2(\pi/2)-0}{0.0013}=1.86\cdot 10^6 rad/s^2$

For an object in accelerated rotational motion, the final angular speed can be found by using another suvat equation:

$\omega_f = \omega_i + \alpha t$

where

$\omega_i$ is the initial angular velocity

t is the time

$\alpha$ is the angular acceleration

In this problem we have:

t = 1.3 ms = 0.0013 s is the time elapsed

$\omega_i = 0$ is the initial angular velocity

$\alpha = 1.86\cdot 10^6 rad/s$ is the angular acceleration

Therefore, the final angular speed is:

$\omega_f = 0 + (1.86\cdot 10^6)(0.0013)=2418 rad/s$

The tangential acceleration is related to the angular acceleration by the following formula:

$a_t = \alpha r$

where

$a_t$ is the tangential acceleration

$\alpha$ is the angular acceleration

r is the distance of the point from the centre of rotation

Here we want to find the tangential acceleration of the tip of the claw, so:

$\alpha = 1.86\cdot 10^6 rad/s$ is the angular acceleration

r = 1.5 cm = 0.015 m is the distance of the tip of the claw from the axis of rotation

Substituting,

$a_t=(1.86\cdot 10^6)(0.015)=27900 m/s^2$

Since the tip of the claw is moving by uniformly accelerated motion, we can find its final speed using the suvat equation:

$v=u+at$

where

u is the initial linear speed

a is the tangential acceleration

t is the time elapsed

Here we have:

$a=27900 m/s^2$ (tangential acceleration)

u = 0 m/s (it starts from rest)

t = 1.3 ms = 0.0013 s is the time elapsed

Substituting,

$v=0+(27900)(0.0013)=36.3 m/s$

Two ropes are attached to either side of a 100.0 kg wagon as shown below. The rope on the right is pulled at an angle 40.0° rela

NikAS [45]

The acceleration of the wagon is found by applying Newton's Second Law of motion.

1. The responses for question 1 are;

x-component of the tension in the rope on the right is approximately 91.93 N

y-component of the tension in the rope on the right is approximately 71.135 N

x-component of the tension in the rope on the left is -80.0 N

y-component of the tension in the rope on the left is 0

2. The net force in the x-direction is approximately 11.93 N

3. The net acceleration of the wagon in the horizontal direction is approximately 0.1193 m/s².

Reasons:

The given parameters are;

Mass of the wagon, m = 100.0 kg

Angle of inclination to the horizontal of the rope to the right, θ = 40.0°

Tension in the rope on the right = 120.0 N

Direction in which the rope on the left is pulled = To the west

Tension in the rope on the left = 80.0 N

1. The x and y component of the tension in the rope on the right are;

x-component = 120.0 N × cos(40.0°) ≈ 91.93 N

y-component = 120.0 N × sin(40.0°) ≈ 77.135 N

The x and y component of the tension in the rope on the left are;

x-component = 80.0 N × cos(180°) = -80.0 N

y-component = 80.0 N × sin(180°) = 0.0 N

2. The net force in the horizontal direction, Fₓ, is found as follows;

Fₓ = The x-component of the rope on the left + The x-component of the rope on the right

Which gives;

Fₓ = 91.93 N - 80.0 N = 11.93 N

3. The net acceleration of the block is given as follows;

According to Newton's Second Law of motion, we have;

Force in the horizontal direction, Fₓ = Mass of wagon, m × Acceleration of the wagon in the horizontal direction, aₓ

Fₓ = m × aₓ

Therefore;

$\displaystyle a_x = \frac{F_x}{m} \approx \frac{11.93 \, N}{100.0 \, kg} = \mathbf{0.1193 \ m/s^2}$

The acceleration of the wagon in the horizontal direction, aₓ ≈ 0.1193 m/s².
