200(1 – 0.956e–0.18t ) where L(t) is the length (in centimeters) of a fish t years old.

Answer:

Rate of change of length as a function of time is given by \frac{dL(t)}{dt}=34.416e^{-0.18t}

Explanation:

The length as function of time is given byL(t)=200(1-0.956e^{-0.18t})

Differentiating with respect to time we get

\frac{dL(t)}{dt}=\frac{d(200(1-0.956e^{-0.18t}))}{dt}\\\\\frac{dL(t)}{dt}=200\frac{d(1-0.956e^{-0.18t})}{dt}\\\\=200\times 0.18\times 0.956e^{-0.18t}\\\\\frac{dL(t)}{dt}=34.416e^{-0.18t}

Calculate the magnitude of the electric field inside the solid at a distance of 9.50 cm from the center of the cavity. Express y
WITCHER [35]

Question:

A point charge of -2.14uC  is located in the center of a spherical cavity of radius 6.55cm  inside an insulating spherical charged solid. The charge density in the solid is 7.35×10−4 C/m^3.

a) Calculate the magnitude of the electric field inside the solid at a distance of 9.50cm  from the center of the cavity.  

Express your answer using two significant figures.

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric field inside the solid at a distance of 9.50cm from the center of the cavity 3.65\times 10^5N/C

Explanation:

A point charge ,q = -2.14\times 10^{-6} C is located in the center of a spherical cavity of radius , r =6.55\times 10^{-2}  m inside an insulating spherical charged solid.  

The charge density in the solid , d = 7.35 \times 10^{-4}C/m^3.

Distance from the center of the cavity,R =9.5\times 10^{-2 }m

Volume of shell of charge= V  =(\frac{4\pi}{3})[ R^3 - r^3 ]

Charge on the shell ,Q = V \times d'

Q =(\frac{4\pi}{3})[ R^3 - r^3 ] \times d

Q = 4.1888*\times 10^{-4 }[8.57375 - 2.81011 ]\times 7.35\times 10^{-4}

Q = 4.1888\times 10^{-4} [5.76364 ] \times 7.35 \times 10^{-4}

Q =2.4143 \times 10^{-4} \times 7.35 \times 10^ { -4}

Q =1.7745 \times 10^{-6 }C

Electric field at 9.5\times 10^{-2}m due to shellE1  = \frac{k Q}{R^2}

E1 =  \frac{ 9 \times 10^9\times 1.7745\times 10^{-6 }}{ 90.25\times 10^{-4}}

E1 =1.769\times 10^6 N/C

Electric field at  9.5\times 10^{-2} due to 'q' at center E2 = \frac{kq}{R^2}

E2 =\frac{ - 9 \times 10^9\times 2.14\times 10^{-6 }}{ 90.25\times 10^{-4}}

E2 =2.134\times 10^6 N/C

The magnitude of the electric field inside the solid at a distance of 9.50cm from the center of the cavity

= E2- E1

=[  2.134  - 1.769 ]\times 10^6

= 3.65\times 10^5 N/C

Find the slit separation of a double-slit arrangement that will produce interference fringes 0.018 rad apart on a distant screen
inessss [21]

Answer:

1.64 * 10^(-5) m

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Angular separation, θ = 0.018 rad

Wavelength, λ = 589 nm = 5.89 * 10^(-7) m

The angular separation when there are 2 slots is given as

θ = λ/2d

where d = separation between slits

d = λ/2θ

d = (589 * 10^(-9))/(2 * 0.018)

d = 1.64 * 10^(-5) m

The position of a particle moving along the x-axis depends on the time according to the equation x = ct2 - bt3, where x is in me
Sav [38]

Answer:

(a):  \rm meter/ second^2.

(b):  \rm meter/ second^3.

(c):  \rm 2ct-3bt^2.

(d):  \rm 2c-6bt.

(e):  \rm t=\dfrac{2c}{3b}.

Explanation:

Given, the position of the particle along the x axis is

\rm x=ct^2-bt^3.

The units of terms \rm ct^2 and \rm bt^3 should also be same as that of x, i.e., meters.

The unit of t is seconds.

(a):

Unit of \rm ct^2=meter

Therefore, unit of \rm c= meter/ second^2.

(b):

Unit of \rm bt^3=meter

Therefore, unit of \rm b= meter/ second^3.

(c):

The velocity v and the position x of a particle are related as

\rm v=\dfrac{dx}{dt}\\=\dfrac{d}{dx}(ct^2-bt^3)\\=2ct-3bt^2.

(d):

The acceleration a and the velocity v of the particle is related as

\rm a = \dfrac{dv}{dt}\\=\dfrac{d}{dt}(2ct-3bt^2)\\=2c-6bt.

(e):

The particle attains maximum x at, let's say, \rm t_o, when the following two conditions are fulfilled:

  1. \rm \left (\dfrac{dx}{dt}\right )_{t=t_o}=0.
  2. \rm \left ( \dfrac{d^2x}{dt^2}\right )_{t=t_o}

Applying both these conditions,

\rm \left ( \dfrac{dx}{dt}\right )_{t=t_o}=0\\2ct_o-3bt_o^2=0\\t_o(2c-3bt_o)=0\\t_o=0\ \ \ \ \ or\ \ \ \ \ 2c=3bt_o\Rightarrow t_o = \dfrac{2c}{3b}.

For \rm t_o = 0,

\rm \left ( \dfrac{d^2x}{dt^2}\right )_{t=t_o}=2c-6bt_o = 2c-6\cdot 0=2c

Since, c is a positive constant therefore, for \rm t_o = 0,

\rm \left ( \dfrac{d^2x}{dt^2}\right )_{t=t_o}>0

Thus, particle does not reach its maximum value at \rm t = 0\ s.

For \rm t_o = \dfrac{2c}{3b},

\rm \left ( \dfrac{d^2x}{dt^2}\right )_{t=t_o}=2c-6bt_o = 2c-6b\cdot \dfrac{2c}{3b}=2c-4c=-2c.

Here,

\rm \left ( \dfrac{d^2x}{dt^2}\right )_{t=t_o}

Thus, the particle reach its maximum x value at time \rm t_o = \dfrac{2c}{3b}.

Students will consider the following items: ice, glass, copper, and aluminium. what happens to each item when hammered? what pro
vladimir2022 [97]

All metals except potassium and sodium, have a property known as malleability. Malleability is the quality of something that can be shaped into something else without breaking. So when aluminium and copper are hammered they will not break. Rather they will change shape and become thin or flat at the area where its hammered.

All Non- metals except diamond are brittle in nature, so when we hammer it , they will break down into pieces. So when ice and glass will be hammered they will shatter into pieces.
