Hold a pencil in front of your eye at a position where its blunt end just blocks out the Moon.

Physics
1 answer:
Valentin [98]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

D = 3.55 \times 10^6 m

Explanation:

Light rays coming from moon is blocked by the pencil

so as per figure we know that angle subtended by pencil and angle subtended by moon must be same

so we have

Angle = \frac{Arc}{Radius}

so we have

\frac{D}{3.8 \times 10^8 m} = \frac{0.7 cm}{75 cm}

so we have

D = 3.55 \times 10^6 m

Calculate the acceleration of a car that begins at rest at a stop light and accelerates to a speed of 20m/s in a 10 sec time per
Dominik [7]
A = delta v over delta t delta v is calculated with final velocity less initial velocity then delta v is equals to 20 - 0 that is 20m/s and to calculate delta t is like delta v is final time less initial time as initial time always is 0 the delta t is equals to 10s then a = 20/10 then acceleration is 10m/s^2 (remember that is squared)

Calculate the force which will produce an extension of 0.30mm in a steel wire with a length of 4.0m and a cross section area of
Anna [14]

Given data:

* The extension of the steel wire is 0.3 mm.

* The length of the wire is 4 m.

* The area of cross section of wire is,

A=2\times10^{-6}m^2

* The young modulus of the steel is,

Y=2.1\times10^{11}\text{ Pa}

Solution:

The young modulus of the steel in terms of the force and extension is,

Y=\frac{F\times l}{A\times dl}

where F is the force acting on the steel wire,, l is the original length of the wire, dl is the extension of the wire, and A is the area,

Substituting the known values,

\begin{gathered} 2.1\times10^{11}=\frac{F\times4}{2\times10^{-6}\times0.3\times10^{-3}} \\ F=0.315\times10^2\text{ N} \\ F=31.5\text{ N} \end{gathered}

Thus, the force which produce the extension of 0.3 mm of the steel wire is 31.5 N.

The Bohr model below represents which answer Choice
Anton [14]

Answer:

Na⁺

Explanation:

In the given atom:

  Number of protons  = 11

  Number of neutrons  = 12

So, the number of electrons  = 10

The number of protons within an atom is used to determine the kind of atom we have been given.

Since the number of protons is the same as the atomic number, here the atomic number is 11 and this is Sodium .

 In this sodium atom, the number of protons is more than the number of electrons;

 Charge = number of protons  - number of electrons  = 11 - 10  = +1

So, we have a Na⁺

. The artificial sweetener NutraSweet is a chemical called aspartame (C14H18N2O5). What is (a) its molecular mass (in atomic mas
loris [4]

The molecular mass, in atomic mass unit, of aspartame would be 294 amu while the mass, in kg, of an aspartame molecule would be 0.294 kg

Aspartame has the chemical formula C14H18N2O5

C = 12, H = 1, N = 14, O = 16

(a) Molecular weight = (12x14) + (1x18) + (14x2) + (16x5)

                                  = 168 + 18 + 28 + 80

                                    = 294 amu

(b) Mass of 1 molecule of aspartame = mole x molar mass

                                    = 1 x 294

                                        = 294 g

Converting 294 g to kg = 294/1000

                                         = 0.294 kg

What is the wavelength of a radio photon from an "am" radio station that broadcasts at 1160 kilohertz?what is its energy?
netineya [11]
Given:
f = 1160 kHz = 1160 x 10³ Hz
The velocity is c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s, the velocity of light (approximmately).

Calculate the wavelength, λ.
c = fλ
λ = c/f = (3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(1160 x 10³ 1/s) = 258.62 m

Answer: 258.6 m
