Answer:

 E = 10⁵ J

Explanation:

given,

Power, P = 100 TW

           = 100 x 10¹² W

time, t = 1 ns

           = 1 x 10⁻⁹ s

The energy of a single pulse is:-

Energy = Power x time

 E = P t

 E = 100 x 10¹² x 1 x 10⁻⁹

 E = 10⁵ J

The energy contained in a single pulse is equal to 10⁵ J

At the local playground, a 21-kg child sits on the right end of a horizontal teeter-totter, 1.8 m from the pivot point. On the l
Ksju [112]

Answer:

By convention a negative torque leads to clockwise rotation and a positive torque leads to counterclockwise rotation.

here weight of the child =21kgx9.8m/s2 = 205.8N

the torque exerted by the child Tc = - (1.8)(205.8) = -370.44N-m ,negative sign is inserted because this torque is clockwise and is therefore negative by convention.

torque exerted by adult Ta = 3(151) = 453N , counterclockwise torque.

net torque Tnet = -370.44+453 =82.56N , which is positive means counterclockwise rotation.

b) Ta = 2.5x151 = 377.5N-m

Tnet = -370.44+377.5 = 7.06N-m , positive ,counterclockwise rotation.

c)Ta = 2x151 = 302N-m

Tnet = -370.44+302 = -68.44N-m, negative,clockwise rotation.

Suppose students experiment with the tube and a variety of darts. Some darts have higher masses than others but are the same aer
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

The dart with the small mass will travel the farthest distance.

Explanation:

Acceleration is proportional to force times mass, and inertia is proportional to mass. Inertia is the reluctance of a moving body to stop, and a stationary body to start moving (inertia increses with mass). Assuming they both have the same aerodynamic design, and that they are both launched with the same force applied for the same time duration, the dart with less small mass will accelerate faster than the big mass dart. From this we can see that the small dart will have covered a longer distance before the effect of the force stops, when compared to the more massive dart.

A 0.150 kg ball on the end of a 1.10 m long cord (negligible mass)is swung in a vertical circle..
Aneli [31]
<span> For any body to move in a circle it requires the centripetal force (mv^2)/r. In this case a ball is moving in a vertical circle swung by a mass less cord. At the top of its arc if we draw its free body diagram and equate the forces in radial direction to the centripetal force we get it as T +mg =(mv^2)/r T is tension in cord m is mass of ball r is length of cord (radius of the vertical circle) To get the minimum value of velocity the LHS should be minimum. This is possible when T = 0. So minimum speed of ball v at top =sqrtr(rg)=sqrt(1.1*9.81) = 3.285 m/s In the second case the speed of ball at top = (2*3.285) =6.57 m/s Let us take the lowest point of the vertical circle as reference for potential energy and apllying the conservation of energy equation between top & bottom we get velocity at bottom as 9.3m/s. Now by drawing the free body diagram of the ball at the bottom and equating the net radial force to the centripetal force T-mg=(mv^2)/r We get tension in cord T=13.27 N</span>

How does air pressure change with altitude?
charle [14.2K]
Air pressure changes with altitude because of issues related to gravity. Molecules have more weight the closer they are to the Earth and more of them move to lower elevations as a result; this causes increased pressure because there are more molecules in number and proximity. Conversely, air at higher elevations has less weight, but also forces pressure on those layers below it, resulting in the molecules closer to the Earth supporting more weight, increasing the pressure

If an unknown element has a mass of 17 and contains 6 neutrons, how many protons does it have ?
lbvjy [14]

The mass number is the total number of protons and neutrons within an atom and since we know that the unknown element has 6 neutrons, we can simply subtract the number of neutrons from the mass number to get the number of protons.

17 - 6 = 11

There are 11 protons in this unknown element.


Extra:

The number of protons (+) and electrons (-) are equal in a neutral atom so since you know that there are 11 protons you also know that there are 11 electrons. On the periodic table, the element with 11 electrons is Na or Sodium.


Hope this helps! :)
