A book that weighs 16N is on top of a shelf that is 3m high. What is the work required to

Physics

DENIUS [597]3 years ago
8 0

48J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight of the book = 16N

Height of the shelf = 3m

Unknown:

Work done to raise the book = ?

Solution:

Work done is defined as the product of force and distance. The force here is the weight of the book which signifies that it was carried in the vicinity of gravitational force.

   Work done = Force x  distance = weight x distance

Weight is a type of force;

  Input the parameters;

     Work done = 16 x 3 = 48J

The unit of workdone is in Joules

Answer:

1a) 857143 m

1b) 414 m

2a)

2b)

3) the medium of air has a wavelength of 0.334 m, the medium of water has a wavelength of 1.493 m, and the medium of 5.130 m.

Explanation:

Question 1a)

Given the velocity/speed, and frequency of the wave, the length can be calculated using these two quantites.

[ λ = v / f ] wavelength = <u>v</u>elocity of the wave / <u>f</u>requency of the wave in Hz.

Since 3 × 10^8 × ms^-1 is the velocity, and 350Hz is the frequency.

Anything to the negative power is reciprocated. i.e ms^-1 = m/s.

The wavelength is 300000000m/350Hz = 857142.8571428..... m ≈ 857143 m

Question 1b) Given that the frequency of the second wave in water is 1% of the first wave, and the speed of the second wave is 1450ms^-1

Therefore the second wave has a frequency of 1% of 3.5 = 350/100 Hz = 3.5 Hz

The wavelength is found using the same

formula: wavelength = 1450m/3.5Hz = 414.2857142857.... m ≈ 414 m

Question 2a)

Question 2b)

Question 3) Remember, the speed of sound of the medium = frequency of the medium × wavelength of the medium.

Therefore the wavelength of the medium = speed of sound of the medium / frequency of the medium. This has a similar correlation to the wavelength formula. We are given that all these mediums have a frequency of 1KHz = 1000Hz, where So the wavelength of each medium =

In a Young's double-slit experiment the separation distance y between the second-order bright fringe and the central bright frin
atroni [7]

Answer:

Y = 0.0254 m = 25.4 mm

Explanation:

The formula for the fringe spacing in Young's Double-slit experiment is given by the following formula:

Y = \frac{\lambda L}{d}

where,

Y = fringe spacing = 0.0176 m

λ = wavelength = 425 nm = 4.25 x 10⁻⁷ m

L = Distance between screen and slits

d = slit separation

Therefore,

\frac{0.0176\ m}{4.25\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m} = \frac{L}{d}\\\\\frac{L}{d} =  41411.76

Now, for:

λ = 614 nm = 6.14 x 10⁻⁷ m

Y = (6.14\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m)(41411.76)\\

<u>Y = 0.0254 m = 25.4 mm</u>

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

w =  - 508.53 joules

q = - 3091.47 joules

Explanation:

Let us convert the time in hours into seconds

0.010* 3600\\= 36

Change in internal energy

\delta E = p * \delta t

where E is the internal energy in Joules

p is the power in watts

and t is the time in seconds

\delta E = - 100 * 36\\

\delta E = - 3600 Joules

Amount of work done by the system

w = - P * \delta V

where P is the pressure and V is the volume

Substituting the given values in above equation, we get -

w = - 1 * ( 5.92 -0.90)\\

w = -5.02 liter-atmospheres

Work done in Joules

- 5.02 * 101.3\\= 508.53Joules

q = \delta E - w\\

Substituting the given values we get -

q = - 3600 - (-508.53)\\q = - 3091.47

Thus

w =  - 508.53 joules

q = - 3091.47 joules
