The movement of fluid as a result of differential heating or convection. Earth convection currents refer to the motion of molten rock in the mantle as radioactive decay heats up magma, causing it to rise and driving the global scale flow of magma.

An electron is located on a pinpoint having a diameter of 3.52 µm. What is the minimum uncertainty in the speed of the electron?
Komok [63]

Explanation:

It is given that,

An electron is located on a pinpoint having a diameter of 3.52 µm, \Delta x=3.52\times 10^{-6}\ m

We need to find the minimum uncertainty in the speed of the electron. It can be calculated using Heisenberg uncertainty principal as :

\Delta p.\Delta x \geq \dfrac{h}{4\pi}

\Delta p \geq \dfrac{h}{4\pi \Delta x}

Since, p = m v

So, mv \geq \dfrac{h}{4\pi \Delta x}

\Delta v \geq \dfrac{h}{4\pi \Delta x m}

\Delta v \geq \dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-34}}{4\pi 3.52\times 10^{-6}\times 9.1\times 10^{-31}}

\Delta v\geq 16.57\ m/s

So, the minimum uncertainty in the speed of the electron is greater than 16.57 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

A small rescue helicopter has 4 blades, each 4m long and 50kg in mass, and it carries a load of 1000kg. a) Find the rotational k
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

A) KE_rot= 5.26 x 10^(5) J

B) KE_trans = 2 x 10^(5)J

Ratio = 0.38

C) Max height = 52.7m

Explanation:

A) We are given;

m = 50kg

r = 4m

ω = 300 revs/min = 300 x 0.1047 = 31.4 rads/s

The formula for rotational kinetic energy is given as;

KE_rot= (1/2)Iω²

Where I is moment of inertia.

Now, I = mr²/3

But since it has 4 blades, thus,

I = 4mr²/3 = 4 x 50 x 4²/3 = 1067 kg. m²

Thus, KE_rot= (1/2)(1067)(31.4)² = 5.26 x 10^(5) J

B) The formula for translational kinetic energy is given by;

KE_trans = (1/2)mv²

We are given velocity as 20 m/s

Thus,

KE_trans = (1/2)(50)(20)² = 2 x 10^(5)J

To compare this to the rotational kinetic energy, we'll take the ratio. Thus; = KE_trans/KE_rot = 2 x 10^(5)J/5.26 x 10^(5)J = 0.38

C) At maximum height,

KE_rot = PE_gravity

Thus, 5.26 x 10^(5)J = mgh

Where m is the load it carries;

5.26 x 10^(5)J = 1000 x 9.8 x h

So, h = [5.26 x 10^(5)]/(9.8 x 1000) = 52.7m
