Answer:

Explanation:

At the temperature of 1000K , hydrogen will have following degree of freedom

translational = 3

rotational = 2

vibrational = 1

Total = 6

Internal energy = 6N  x 1 /2 k T where N is no of molecules

E₁ = 3 N kT

At the temperature of 1000K , helium  will have following degree of freedom

translational = 3

rotational = 0

vibrational =  0

Total = 3

Internal energy = 3N  x 1 /2 k T where N is no of molecules

E₂ = 3 / 2 N kT

Ratio =  E₁ / E₂

=  2

A vertical spring has a mass hanging from it, which is displaced from the equilibrium position and begins to oscillate. At what
Orlov [11]

Answer:

the object has least potential energy at mean position of the SHM

Explanation:

If a block is connected with a spring and there is no resistive force on the system

In this case the total energy of the system is always conserved and it will change from one form to another form

So here we will say that

Kinetic energy + Potential energy = Total Mechanical energy

As we can say that total energy is conserved so here we have least potential energy when the system has maximum kinetic energy

So here we also know that at mean position of the SHM the system has maximum speed and hence maximum kinetic energy.

So the object has least potential energy at mean position of the SHM

Why are infrared waves located between microwaves and visible light on the electromagnetic spectrum?
dangina [55]

Answer: The infra red waves is located between microwave and visible light based on their WAVELENGTH and FREQUENCY of occurrence.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are those waves that do not require or need a material medium for its propagation, but they are able to travel through a vacuum. They exhibit or show all properties associated or connected with light. They are undeflected in electric and magnetic fields. These electromagnetic waves are arranged in order of their FREQUENCY and WAVELENGTHS which is known as ELECTROMAGNETIC SPECTRUM.

FREQUENCY is defined as the number of cycles which the wave completes in one second and is measured in Hertz(Hz). While WAVELENGTH is defined as the distance between two successive crests or troughs of waves which is measured in meter (m).

The electromagnetic spectrum is made up of the following rays which is arranged from the biggest wavelengths to the smallest:

--> Radiowaves

--> microwave :

--> infrared rays:

--> visible light:

--> ultraviolet rays

--> x-rays and

--> Gamma rays.

According to the arrangement of the spectrum above, the microwave has a higher wavelength and frequency than the infrared rays, while the visible light has a lower wavelength and frequency than the infrared rays.

In a pig caller can produce a sound intensity level of 107 dB. How many pig callers would be needed to generate an intensity lev
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

20 pig callers

Explanation:

Given that:

A pig caller produced intensity level of  a sound = 107 dB

To find how many pig callers required to generate an intensity level of 120 dB;

we have:

120 dB - 107 dB = 13 dB

Taking the logarithm function;

10 \ log \bigg(\dfrac{I}{I_o} \bigg) = 13 \ dB

where;

I_o = initial intensity

log \bigg(\dfrac{I}{I_o} \bigg) = 1.3

\dfrac{I}{I_o}=  10^{1.3 }

I = 19.95I_o

I ≅ 20 pig callers

1. A DC-10 jumbo jet maintains an airspeed of 550 mph in a southwesterly direction. The velocity of the jet stream is a constant
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

The magnitude of actual velocity is <u>496.67 mph</u> and its direction is <u>51.54° with the x axis in the third quadrant</u>.

Explanation:

Given:

Speed of jumbo jet in southwesterly direction (v_j) = 550 mph

Velocity of jet stream from west to east direction (v_s)=80\ mph

First let us draw a vectorial representation of the above velocity vectors.

Consider the south direction as negative y axis and west direction as negative x axis.

From the diagram,

The velocity of the jet can be represented as:

\vec{v_j}=-550\cos(45)\vec{i}+(-550\sin(45)\vec{j} )\\\\\vec{v_j}=-388.91\vec{i}-388.91\vec{j}\ mph

Similarly, the velocity of the stream is, \vec{v_s}=80\vec{i}

Now, the vector sum of the above two vectors gives the actual velocity of the aircraft. So, the resultant velocity is given as:

\vec{v}=\vec{v_j}+\vec{v_s}\\\\\vec{v}=-388.91\vec{i}-388.91\vec{j}+80\vec{i}\\\\\vec{v}=(-388.91+80)\vec{i}-388.91\vec{j}\\\\\vec{v}=(-308.91)\vec{i}-388.91\vec{j}

Now, magnitude is given as the square root of sum of the squares of the 'i' and 'j' components. So,

|\vec{v}|=\sqrt{(-308.91)^2+(-388.91)^2}\\\\|\vec{v}|=496.67\ mph

As the horizontal and vertical components of actual velocity negative, the resultant vector makes an angle \theta with the x axis in the third quadrant.

The direction is given as:

\theta=\tan^{-1}(\frac{v_y}{v_x})\\\\\theta=\tan^{-1}(\frac{-388.91}{-308.91})\\\\\theta=51.54\°(Third\ quadrant)

Therefore, the magnitude of actual velocity is 496.67 mph and its direction is 51.54° with the x axis in the third quadrant.
