If two children, with masses of 16 kg and 25 kg, sit in seats opposite one another in a rotating merry-go-round with an arm leng
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

92.25 kgm^2

Explanation:

Assume both children bodies are point particles. The total moment of inertia about the rotation axis of 2 points particles of mass 16 kg and 25 kg at 1.5 m arm length is

\sum I = m_1r_1^2 + m_2r_2^2

where m_1 = 16 kg, m_2 = 25 kg are the masses of 2 children r_1 = R-2 = 1.5m are their distance to the center of rotation

\sum I = 16*1.5^2 + 25*1.5^2 = 1.5^2(16 + 25) = 92.25 kgm^2

Beats are the difference in (a) Frequency (b) Amplitude (c) Intensity (d) None
sasho [114]

Answer:

Beats are the difference in frequency.

(a) is correct option.

Explanation:

Beat :

Beat is the difference of the frequency of two waves.

The difference in frequency is equal to the number of beat per second.

Amplitude :

Amplitude of the wave is the maximum displacement.

Frequency :

Frequency is the number oscillations of wave in per second.

Intensity :

Intensity is the power per unit area.

Hence, Beats are the difference in frequency.

An atom of carbon has a radius of 67.0 pm and the average orbital speed of the electrons in it is about 1.3 x 10⁶ m/s.
adoni [48]

Answer :

The least possible uncertainty in an electron's velocity is, 4.32\times 10^{5}m/s

The percentage of the average speed is, 33 %

Explanation :

According to the Heisenberg's uncertainty principle,

\Delta x\times \Delta p=\frac{h}{4\pi} ...........(1)

where,

\Delta x = uncertainty in position

\Delta p = uncertainty in momentum

h = Planck's constant

And as we know that the momentum is the product of mass and velocity of an object.

p=m\times v

or,

\Delta p=m\times \Delta v      .......(2)

Equating 1 and 2, we get:

\Delta x\times m\times \Delta v=\frac{h}{4\pi}

\Delta v=\frac{h}{4\pi \Delta x\times m}

Given:

m = mass of electron = 9.11\times 10^{-31}kg

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{-34}Js

radius of atom = 67.0pm=67.0\times 10^{-12}m     (1pm=10^{-12}m)

\Delta x = diameter of atom = 2\times 67.0\times 10^{-12}m=134.0\times 10^{-12}m

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

\Delta v=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}Js}{4\times 3.14\times (134.0\times 10^{-12}m)\times (9.11\times 10^{-31}kg)}

\Delta v=4.32\times 10^{5}m/s

The minimum uncertainty in an electron's velocity is, 4.32\times 10^{5}m/s

Now we have to calculate the percentage of the average speed.

Percentage of average speed = \frac{\text{Uncertainty in speed}}{\text{Average speed}}\times 100

Uncertainty in speed = 4.32\times 10^{5}m/s

Average speed = 1.3\times 10^{6}m/s

Percentage of average speed = \frac{4.32\times 10^{5}m/s}{1.3\times 10^{6}m/s}\times 100

Percentage of average speed = 33.2 % ≈ 33 %

Thus, the percentage of the average speed is, 33 %
