Answer:

Period of the signal.

Explanation:

So, this question is all about a concept in physics or astronomy which is called or known as Radiation Astronomy and Galactic Nuclei that are active. This concept talks most about Quasars; a powerful radiating object which derives its power from black holes.

When You take a look at Quasars, we get the to know that the more you think you can see, the more they move away from us.

Thus, when "You are observing the radiation from a distant active galaxy and you notice that the amplitude of the signal varies in strength regularly over a certain period. The maximum possible size for the source of this radiation can now be calculated from the "PERIOD OF THE SIGNAL.

NB: not the amplitude but the period.

In a television set, electrons are accelerated from rest through a potential difference of 20 kV. The electrons then pass throug
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer: Fmax = 5.54*10^-12 N

Explanation: From the question, we have the potential difference (V) =20kv = 20,000v and strength of magnetic field (B) =0.41 T.

The maximum force experienced by a charge of magnitude (q) is given as

Fmax = qvB

Where v = velocity of electron.

The velocity of the electron can be gotten by using the work energy theorem.

The kinetic energy of the electron (mv²/2) equals the work done needed to accelerate it.

mv²/2 = qV.

Where m = mass of an electronic charge = 9.11×10^-31 kg, q = magnitude of an electronic charge = 1.609×10^-19 c, v = velocity of electron, V = potential difference = 20,000v.

By substituting the parameters, we have that

(9.11×10^-31 × v²)/2 = 1.609×10^-19 × 20000

(9.11×10^-31 × v²) = 1.609×10^-19 × 20000 ×2

v² = (1.609×10^-19 × 20000 ×2)/9.11×10^-31

v² = 64.36*10^(-16)/9.11×10^-31

v² = 7.0647×10^15

v = √7.0647×10^15

v = 8.40×10^7 m/s

Fmax = 1.609×10^-19 × 8.40×10^7 × 0.41

Fmax = 5.54*10^-12 N

A 460 g model rocket is on a cart that is rolling to the right at a speed of 3.0 m/s. The rocket engine, when it is fired, exert
ollegr [7]

Answer:

The rocket should be launched at a horizontal distance of <u>6.45 m</u> left of the loop.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the rocket model (m) = 460 g = 0.460 kg [1 g = 0.001 kg]

Speed of the cart (v) = 3.0 m/s

Thrust force by the rocket engine (F) = 8.5 N

Vertical height of the loop (y) = 20 m

Let the horizontal distance left to the loop for launch be 'x'. Also, let 't' be the time taken by the rocket to reach the loop.

Now, there are two types of motion associated with the rocket- one is horizontal and the other vertical.

So, we will apply kinematics of motion in the two directions separately.

Vertical motion:

Given:

Force acting in the vertical direction is given as:

F_y=F-mg=8.5-0.46\times 9.8=3.992\ N

So, acceleration in the vertical direction is given as:

Acceleration = Force ÷ mass

a_y=\frac{F_y}{m}=\frac{3.992\ N}{0.46\ kg}=8.678\ m/s^2

Vertical displacement of rocket is same as the height of loop. So, y=20\ m

There is no initial velocity in the vertical direction. So, u_y=0\ m/s

Now, applying equation of motion in vertical direction. we have:

y=u_yt+\frac{1}{2}a_yt^2\\\\20=0+\frac{1}{2}\times 8.678t^2\\\\20=4.339t^2\\\\t^2=\frac{20}{4.339}\\\\t=\sqrt{\frac{20}{4.339}}=2.15\ s

Now, time taken to reach the loop is 2.15 s.

Horizontal motion:

There is no acceleration in the horizontal motion. So, displacement in the horizontal direction is equal to the product of horizontal speed and time.

Also, displacement of the rocket in the horizontal direction is nothing but the horizontal distance of its launch left of the loop. So,

x=vt\\\\x=3.0\ m/s\times 2.15\ s\\\\x=6.45\ m

Therefore, the rocket should be launched at a horizontal distance of 6.45 m left of the loop.

What fraction of the total energy of a SHO is kinetic when the displacement is one third the amplitude
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

The fraction of kinetic energy to the total energy is \frac{K}{T}=\frac{8}{9}.

Explanation:

displacement is one third of the amplitude.

Let the amplitude is A.

x= A/3

The kinetic energy of the body executing SHM is

K = 0.5 mw^2(A^2 - x^2)\\\\K = 0.5 m w^2 \left ( A^2 -\frac{A^2}{9} \right )\\\\K = 0.5 mw^2\times \frac{8A^2}{9}......(1)

The total energy is

T =0.5 mw^2A^2 ..... (2)

Divide (1) by (2)

\frac{K}{T}=\frac{8}{9}

Romeo (81.0 kg) entertains Juliet (53.0 kg) by playing his guitar from the rear of their boat at rest in still water, 2.70 m awa
den301095 [7]

Answer:

0.64 m

Explanation:

The first thing is calculate the center of mass of the system.

X_{cm}= \sum_{n=1}^{n}\frac{X_n\times M_n}{M_n}

now multiplying every coordinate x by the mass of each object (romeo, juliet and the boat) and dividing all by the total mass  taking by reference the position of juliet.

X_{cm}=\frac{53\times0 +81\times2.7+79\times1.35}{53+81+79}

X_cm = 1.4589 m

When the forces involved are internals, the center of mass don't change  

After the movement the center of mass remains in the same distance from the shore, but change relative to the rear of the boat.

X_{cm}=\frac{79\times1.35+(81+53)\times2.7}{53+81+79}

X_cm= 2.10 m

this displacement is how the boat move toward the shore.

2.10-1.46= 0.64 m
