6. The image to the right shows a moment of inertia
Trava [24]

The moment of inertia is the rotational analog of mass, and it is given by

the  product of mass and the square of the distance from the axis.

  • The moment of inertia changes as the position of the weight is changed, which indicates that; statement is incorrect

Reasons:

The weight on each arm that have adjustable positions can be considered as point masses.

The moment of inertia of a point mass is <em>I</em> = m·r²

Where;

m = The mass of the weight

r = The distance (position) from the center to which the weight is adjusted

Therefore;

The moment of inertia, <em>I </em>∝ r²

Which gives;

Doubling the distance from the center of rotation, increases the moment of inertia by factor of 4.

Therefore, the statement contradicts the relationship between the radius of rotation and moment of inertia.

Prob. 3: Manifestation of quantum phenomena (total 25 points) (a)-(e) 5 points each.
TEA [102]

Answer:

3A. This phenomenon can be seen in the discrete emission of the molecules.

3B. The emotion of the atoms is observed, from states high in energy to a state of minimum energy that is stable indefinitely.

3C. When an electron beam passes through an inhomogeneous magnetic field, it is divided into only two beams

3D. This is due to the stimulated emission

3E. The penetration of a potential barrier is observed in the radioactive emission of heavy atoms, where an alpha particle (Helium nucleus)

Explanation:

This problem asks for some experimental explanations of various quantum phenomena.

3A. This phenomenon can be seen in the discrete emission of the molecules.

In the classical explanation all states or energies are allowed, therefore when emitting energy (photons) there should be a continuum, this is not observed

In the correct quantum explanation only some states are allowed, therefore the emission must be discrete, which is observed in the emission or absorption of molecules and atoms

3B. The emotion of the atoms is observed, from states high in energy to a state of minimum energy that is stable indefinitely.

The incorrect classical explanation that if the minimum energy was zero the electrons cannot rotate around the nuclei and the atom collapses, this does not happen

3C. When an electron beam passes through an inhomogeneous magnetic field, it is divided into only two beams, which is evidence of the existence of two discrete states that we call spin, remember that a free electron beam has zero angular momentum.

3D. This is due to the stimulated emission that occurs when a photon passes through the emission zone, causing the atoms to have transitions and these emitted photons have the same initial photon location, the laser beam all photons are in phase and therefore it is coherent .

This is widely used for holographic and interference work

3E. The penetration of a potential barrier is observed in the radioactive emission of heavy atoms, where an alpha particle (Helium nucleus) leaves the atomic nucleus penetrating the barrier since its energy is lower than the nuclear barrier potential.

Which result occurs during an exothermic reaction?
Irina-Kira [14]

In exothermic reactions, heat and light are released to the surrounding environment. On the other hand, in an endothermic reaction, heat is required and therefore it can be considered as a reactant.

  • In exothermic reactions, light and heat are released into the environment (Option D).

  • Exothermic reactions release energy in the form of heat or light.

  • Combustion reactions are generally exothermic reactions.

  • After an exothermic reaction takes place it is possible to observe that the energy of the products of the reaction is lesser than the energy of the reactants.

  • The energy released in exothermic reactions is evidenced by the increase in temperature of the reaction.
