A window in a submersible needs to be able to withstand the incredible forces that water will exert at depth. If the window is 3

0 cm x 15 cm, what would the force exerted by the water be at a depth of 1 km

Answer:

Explanation:

Area of the window, A = 30 cm x 15 cm = 0.045 m²

depth, h = 1 km = 1000 m

Let P is the pressure

P = h x d x g

where d is the density of water

P = 1000 x 1000 x 9.8 = 9.8 x 10^6 Pa

Force, F = Pressure x Area

F = 9.8 x 10^6 x 0.045

F = 4.41 x 10^5 N

Answer:

$F=441000\ N$

Explanation:

Given:

dimension of the window, $(30\times 15)\ cm$

depth of window under water, $d=1000\ m$

<u>We know that the pressure due to liquid column is given as:</u>

$P=\rho.g.d$

where:

$\rho=$ density of water

$g=$ acceleration due to gravity

$d=$ depth of the water column at the desired position

$P=1000\times 9.8\times 1000$

$P=9800000\ Pa$

Now the force acting on the area of the window:

$F=P.A$

where:

$A=$ area of the window

$F=9800000\times (0.3\times 0.15)$

$F=441000\ N$

Suppose a scientist doing an experiment in nuclear fusion starts out with twelve atoms. How many atoms will most likely result f

ddd [48]

<span>So we wan't to know what happens during nuclear fusion where we have 12 atoms. Nuclear fusion is a nuclear process where 2 or more nuclei will form 1 or more different nuclei with a release of energy. So if we start with 12 atoms, the most likely result will be 6 atoms. </span>

A volleyball player bumps a ball across a net with the velocity and angle shown below. What is the maximum height of the ball?

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

D. 12.4 m

Explanation:

Given that,

The initial velocity of the ball, u = 18 m/s

The angle at which the ball is projected, θ = 60°

The maximum height of the ball is given by the formula

h = u² sin²θ/2g m

Where,

g - acceleration due to gravity. (9.8 m/s)

Substituting the values in the above equation

h = 18² · sin²60 / 2 x 9.8

= 18² x 0.75 / 2 x 9.8

= 12.4 m

Hence, the maximum height of the ball attained, h = 12.4 m

At the moment t = 0, a 20.0 V battery is connected to a 5.00 mH coil and a 6.00 Ω resistor. (a) Immediately thereafter, how does

insens350 [35]

(a) On the coil: 20 V, on the resistor: 0 V

The sum of the potential difference across the coil and the potential difference across the resistor is equal to the voltage provided by the battery, V = 20 V:

$V = V_R + V_L$

The potential difference across the inductance is given by

$V_L(t) = V e^{-\frac{t}{\tau}}$ (1)

where

$\tau = \frac{L}{R}=\frac{0.005 H}{6.00 \Omega}=8.33\cdot 10^{-4} s$ is the time constant of the circuit

At time t=0,

$V_L(0) = V e^0 = V = 20 V$

So, all the potential difference is across the coil, therefore the potential difference across the resistor will be zero:

$V_R = V-V_L = 20 V-20 V=0$

(b) On the coil: 0 V, on the resistor: 20 V

Here we are analyzing the situation several seconds later, which means that we are analyzing the situation for

$t >> \tau$

Since $\tau$ is at the order of less than milliseconds.

Using eq.(1), we see that for $t >> \tau$ , the exponential becomes zero, and therefore the potential difference across the coil is zero:

$V_L = 0$

Therefore, the potential difference across the resistor will be

$V_R = V-V_L = 20 V- 0 = 20 V$

(c) Yes

The two voltages will be equal when:

$V_L = V_R$ (2)

Reminding also that the sum of the two voltages must be equal to the voltage of the battery:

$V=V_L +V_R$

And rewriting this equation,

$V_R = V-V_L$

Substituting into (2) we find

$V_L = V-V_L\\2V_L = V\\V_L=\frac{V}{2}=10 V$

So, the two voltages will be equal when they are both equal to 10 V.

(d) at $t=5.77\cdot 10^{-4}s$

We said that the two voltages will be equal when

$V_L=\frac{V}{2}$

Using eq.(1), and this last equation, this means

$V e^{-\frac{t}{\tau}} = \frac{V}{2}$

And solving the equation for t, we find the time t at which the two voltages are equal:

$e^{-\frac{t}{\tau}}=\frac{1}{2}\\-\frac{t}{\tau}=ln(1/2)\\t=-\tau ln(0.5)=-(8.33\cdot 10^{-4} s)ln(0.5)=5.77\cdot 10^{-4}s$

(e-a) -19.2 V on the coil, 19.2 V on the resistor

Here we have that the current in the circuit is

$I_0 = 3.20 A$

The problem says this current is stable: this means that we are in a situation in which $t>>\tau$ , so the coil has no longer influence on the circuit, which is operating as it is a normal circuit with only one resistor. Therefore, we can find the potential difference across the resistor using Ohm's law

$V=I_0 R = (3.20 A)(6.0 \Omega)=19.2 V$

Then the battery is removed from the circuit: this means that the coil will discharge through the resistor.

The voltage on the coil is given by

$V_L(t) = -V e^{-\frac{t}{\tau}}$ (1)

which means that it is maximum at the moment when the battery is disconnected, when t=0:

$V_L(0)=.V$

And V this time is the voltage across the resistor, 19.2 V (because the coil is now connected to the resistor, not to the battery). So, the voltage across the coil will be -19.2 V, and the voltage across the resistor will be the same in magnitude, 19.2 V (since the coil and the resistor are connected to the same points in the circuit): however, the signs of the potential difference will be opposite.

(e-b) 0 V on both

After several seconds,

$t>>\tau$

If we use this approximation into the formula

$V_L(t) = -V e^{-\frac{t}{\tau}}$ (1)

We find that

$V_L = 0$

And since now the resistor is directly connected to the coil, the voltage in the resistor will be the same as the coil, so 0 V. This means that the coil has completely discharged, and current is no longer flowing through the circuit.

Which color of light is diffracted at a greater angle from a diffraction grating, red or yellow light?

topjm [15]

The amount of diffraction depends on the wavelength of light, with shorter wavelengths being diffracted at a greater angle than longer ones (in effect, blue and violet<span> light are diffracted at a larger angle than is red light).

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!
