11–8 Consider a heavy car submerged in water in a lake with a flat bottom. The driver’s side door of the car is 1.1 m high and 0

.9 m wide, and the top edge of the door is 10 m below the water surface. Determine the net force acting on the door (normal to its surface) and the location of the pressure center if (a) the car is well-sealed and it contains air at atmospheric pressure and (b) the car is filled with water.

Answer:

Explanation:

position of centre of mass of door from surface of water

= 10 + 1.1 / 2

= 10.55 m

Pressure on centre of mass

atmospheric pressure + pressure due to water column

10 ⁵ + hdg

= 10⁵ + 10.55 x 1000 x 9.8

= 2.0339 x 10⁵ Pa

the net force acting on the door (normal to its surface)

= pressure at the centre x area of the door

= .9 x 1.1 x 2.0339 x 10⁵

= 2.01356 x 10⁵ N

pressure centre will be at 10.55 m below the surface.

When the car is filled with air or  it is filled with water , in both the cases pressure centre will lie at the centre of the car .

How many photons will be required to raise the temperature of 1.8 g of water by 2.5 k ?'?
tatyana61 [14]
Missing part in the text of the problem: 
"<span>Water is exposed to infrared radiation of wavelength 3.0×10^−6 m"</span>

First we can calculate the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of the water, which is given by
Q=m C_s \Delta T
where
m=1.8 g is the mass of the water
C_s = 4.18 J/(g K) is the specific heat capacity of the water
\Delta T=2.5 K is the increase in temperature.

Substituting the data, we find
Q=(1.8 g)(4.18 J/(gK))(2.5 K)=18.8 J=E

We know that each photon carries an energy of
E_1 = hf
where h is the Planck constant and f the frequency of the photon. Using the wavelength, we can find the photon frequency:
\lambda =  \frac{c}{f}= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{3 \cdot 10^{-6} m}=1 \cdot 10^{14}Hz

So, the energy of a single photon of this frequency is
E_1 = hf =(6.6 \cdot 10^{-34} J)(1 \cdot 10^{14} Hz)=6.6 \cdot 10^{-20} J

and the number of photons needed is the total energy needed divided by the energy of a single photon:
N= \frac{E}{E_1}= \frac{18.8 J}{6.6 \cdot 10^{-20} J} =2.84 \cdot 10^{20} photons

A stone is thrown vertically upwards with a speed of 30.0 m/s.
matrenka [14]

a)

Y₀ = initial position of the stone at the time of launch = 0 m

Y = final position of stone = 20.0 meters

a = acceleration = - 9.8 m/s²

v₀ = initial speed of stone at the time of launch = 30.0 m/s

v = final speed = ?

Using the equation

v² = v₀² + 2 a (Y - Y₀)

inserting the values

v² = 30² + 2 (- 9.8) (20 - 0)

v = 22.5 m/s


b)

Y₀ = initial position of the stone at the time of launch = 0 m

Y = maximum height gained

a = acceleration = - 9.8 m/s²

v₀ = initial speed of stone at the time of launch = 30.0 m/s

v = final speed = 0 m/s

Using the equation

v² = v₀² + 2 a (Y - Y₀)

inserting the values

0² = 30² + 2 (- 9.8) (Y - 0)

Y = 46 m

The magnetic field direction and direction of induced current in a wire are related by the right hand grip rule. Since the magnetic field was upwards, the thumb points upwards and the fingers curl around it. When viewed from above, it is seen as a current flowing in the counter clockwise direction.
