Answer:

Second Option: it suddenly drops to zero

Explanation:

Superconductors are resistance free materials that enable (allow) <u>electricity conduction (i.e. electron transportation between atoms)</u>.

As the superconductor temperature is gradually lowered, eventually a Critical Temperature is reached, where the <u>superconductor electrical resistivity</u> suddenly drops to zero. Such drop is so fast, that can be described as a complete matter-phase transition. This is in contrast with typical conductors,<em> where with gradually decreasing temperature there is also a gradually decreasing resistivity (which is also true at temperatures of near absolute zero). </em>

Thus the correct answer is the Second Option: it suddenly drops to zero

A steel ball with mass m=5.21 g is moving horizontally with speed ????=412 m/s when it strikes a block of hardened steel with ma
docker41 [41]

Answer:

a) The speed of the block immediately after the collision is v_{2f}=(0.289\±0.002)m/s.

b) The impulse exerted on the block is p_{2}=(4.2772\±0.0296)kg*m/s.

Explanation:

Hi

a) As this is a perfectly elastic collision, we can use the formula  v_{2f}=(\frac{2m_{1} }{m_{1}+m_{2}} ) v_{1i}+ (\frac{m_{2}-m_{1}}{m_{1}+m_{2}} )v_{2i}, due v_{2i}=0m/s, we obtain v_{2f}=(\frac{2m_{1} }{m_{1}+m_{2}} ) v_{1i}. Then with the data that we know m_{1}=5.21g=0.00521kg, m_{2}=14.8kg and v_{1i}=412m/s, therefore v_{2f}=(\frac{2(0.00521kg) }{0.00521kg+14.8kg} ) 412m/s=0.289m/s or v_{2f}=(0.289\±0.002)m/s adding uncertainty.

b) Now that we know the speed we can use p_{2}=m_{2}*v_{f2} =14.8kg*(0.289\±0.002)m/s=(4.2772\±0.0296)kg*m/s.

Rank the wavelengths of the following quantum particles from the largest to the smallest. If any have equal wavelengths, display
goldfiish [28.3K]

The wavelengths of the following quantum particles from the largest to the smallest is (d) > (a) = (e) > (b) > (c)

  • De Broglie proposed that because light has both wave and particle properties, matter exhibits both wave and particle properties. This property has been explained as the dual behavior of matter.
  • From his observations, de Broglie derived the relationship between the wavelength and momentum of matter. This relationship is known as de Broglie's relationship.

De Broglie's relationship is given by  \lambda=\frac{h}{mv} .

This can be written as \lambda=\frac{h}{p}  .....(1) where λ  is known as de Broglie wavelength and p is momentum , h = Plank’s constant .

As we know that mass of proton is greater than electron and photon .

(a)For photon , the momentum is given by p=\frac{E}{c}     ...(2)  where c is the speed is the speed of light .

Putting E = 3eV in equation (2) , we get

              p=\frac{3\times 1.6\times10^-^1^9}{3\times 10^8} \\p=1.6\times10^-^2^7Js/m

Putting this value of p in equation (1) , we get

  \lambda=\frac{6.62\times10^{-34}}{1.6\times10^{-27}}\\\lambda=4.13\times10^{-7}

(b) As we know that  kinetic energy is given by

         K.E=\frac{1}{2} mv^2\\\\2K.E = mv^2\\2K.E\times m = m^2v^2\\2K.E\times m = (mv)^2\\2K.E\times m = p^2\\\\\sqrt{2K.E\times m }=p      ...(3)

Where mass of electron is 9.1\times10^-^3^1 kg .

Putting K.E = 3eV in equation (3) , we get

    \sqrt{2K.E\times m }=p\\p=\sqrt{2\times3\times1.6\times10^{-19} \times 9.31\times10^{-31} }\\p=\sqrt{89.376\times10^{-50}} \\p=9.45\times10^{-25}Js/m

Putting this value of p in equation (1) , we get

\lambda=\frac{6.62\times10^{-34}}{9.45\times10^{-25}}\\\lambda=0.7005\times10^{-9}

(c) Putting m=1.67\times10^{-27}kg and K.E = 3eV in equation (3) , we get

     \sqrt{2K.E\times m }=p\\p=\sqrt{2\times3\times1.6\times10^{-19} \times 1.67\times10^{-27} }\\p=\sqrt{16.032\times10^{-46}} \\p=4.003\times10^{-23}Js/m

Putting this value of p in equation (1) , we get

\lambda=\frac{6.62\times10^{-34}}{4.003\times10^{-23}}\\\lambda=1.65\times10^{-11}

(d) Putting E = 0.3eV in equation (2) , we get

   p=\frac{0.3\times 1.6\times10^-^1^9}{3\times 10^8} \\p=1.6\times10^-^2^8Js/m

Putting this value of p in equation (1) , we get

\lambda=\frac{6.62\times10^{-34}}{1.6\times10^{-28}}\\\lambda=4.13\times10^{-6}

(e) Putting p=3eV/c in equation (1) , we get

    \lambda=\frac{6.62\times10^{-34}\\\times3\times10^8}{3\times1.6\times10^{-19}}\\\lambda=4.13\times10^{-7}

On comparing the wavelength order should be (d) > (a) = (e) > (b) > (c) .

A bicycle tire of a radius of 0.44 m has a piece of gum stuck on its rim. What is the angle through which the tire rotates when
Karolina [17]

Based on the calculations, the angle through which the tire rotates is equal to 4.26 radians and 244.0 degrees.

<h3>How to calculate the angle?</h3>

In Physics, the distance covered by an object in circular motion can be calculated by using this formula:

S = rθ

<u>Where:</u>

  • r is the radius of a circular path.
  • θ is the angle measured in radians.
  • S is the distance.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

1.87 = 0.44 × θ

θ = 1.87/0.44

θ = 4.26 radians.

Next, we would convert this value in radians to degrees:

θ = 4.26 × 180/π

θ = 4.26 × 180/3.142

θ = 244.0 degrees.
