Where would a boat produce the highest concentration of carbon monoxide?

1 answer:

5 0

A boat would produce the highest concentration of carbon monoxide in the exhaust system.

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas that is slightly less dense than air. It is toxic to hemoglobic animals (both invertebrate and vertebrate, including humans) when encountered in concentrations above about 35 ppm.

A 2:2 kg toy train is con ned to roll along a straight, frictionless track parallel to the x-axis. The train starts at the origi

Liula [17]

Answer:

a) 10.51 J

b) 3.48 m/s

Explanation:

Given data :

mass of train ( M ) = 2.2 kg

Given initial velocity ( u ) = 1.6 m/s

a) calculating work done by the force over the journey of the train

F = mx + b ------ ( 1 )

m = slope = ( Δ f / Δ x ) = 2.8 / -7.5 = - 0.373 N/m

x = distance travelled on the x axis by the train = 7.5 m

F = force experienced by the train = 2.8 N

x = 0

∴ b = 2.8

hence equation 1 can be written as

F = ( -0.373) x + 2.8 ----- ( 2 )

hence to determine the work done by the force

W = $\int\limits^7_0 { ( -0.373) x + 2.8 )} \, dx$ Note: the limits are actually 7.5 and 0

∴ W ( work done ) = -10.49 + 21 = 10.51 J

b) calculate the speed of the train at the end of its journey

we will apply the work energy theorem

W = 1/2 m*v^2 - 1/2 m*u^2

∴ V^2 = 2 / M ( W + 1/2 M*u^2 ) ( input values into equation )

V^2 = 12.11

hence V = 3.48 m/s

Through what potential difference would you need to accelerate an alpha particle, starting from rest, so that it will just reach

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

$\Delta V = 1.8 \times 10^7 V$

Explanation:

GIVEN

diameter = 15 fm = $15 \times 10^{-15}$ m

we use here energy conservation

$K_{i}+U_{i} =K_{f}+U_{f}$

there will be some initial kinetic energy but after collision kinetic energy will zero

$K_{i} + 0 = 0 + \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon _{0}} \frac{(2e)(92e)}{7.5 \times 10^{-15}}$

on solving these equations we get kinetic energy initial

$KE_{i} = 5.65\times 10 ^{-12} \times \frac {1 eV}{1.6 \times 10^{-19}}$

$KE_{i} = 35.33$ J ..............(i)

That is, the alpha particle must be fired with 35.33 MeV of kinetic energy. An alpha particle with charge q = 2 e

and gains kinetic energy K =e∆V ..........(ii)

by accelerating through a potential difference ∆V

Thus the alpha particle will

just reach the ${238}_U$ nucleus after being accelerated through a potential difference ∆V

equating (i) and second equation we get

e∆V = 35.33 Me V

$\Delta V = \frac{35.33}{2} MV\\\Delta V = 1.8 \times 10^7 V$

Differences between Light year and Cosmic year in two points

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

A cosmic year is 365.25 days, some times called a side real year and is just the time it takes for us to go round the sun once.

A light year is the distance light travels in a year. Now light travels at about 186,262 miles a Second! Which is not slow by any ones book.

An experiment was conducted just after Christmas a few years ago. Two girls were selected from the audience and went into two phone boxes a few feet apart. They could only hear each other via the phones. The phone call went to a ground station about 200 miles away, then up to a geostationary coms satellite, back to a ground station 1/3 of the way around the world, then repeated, with a third satellite before being sent from another ground station back to London and the other phone box. We the audience could hear both sides of the conversation from both boxes. And could hear the delay between sending and receiving. So even at the speed of light, there was about 1.5 seconds of delay. So because distances in space are so vast that saying a star is x millions of miles away causes problems, you run out of zero’s! So our nearest other star is about 4.5 light years away. Our sun (our nearest start) is about 8 light minuets away. Varies slightly as our orbit is not 100% cirular.

I HOPE THIS IS HELPFUL.
