Listed following are three possible models for the long-term expansion (and possible contraction) of the universe in the absence

of dark energy:
A) recollapsing universe
B) coasting universe
C) critical universe
Rank each model from left to right based on the ratio of its actual mass density to the critical density, from smallest ratio (mass density much smaller than critical density) to largest ratio (mass density much greater than critical density).

Answer:

1. Recollapsing universe

2. Critical universe

3. Coasting universe

Explanation:

Recollapsing universe has dark matter density greater than critical density. While critical universe has its matter density equal to the critical sensity. Coasting universe on the other hand has much smaller matter density compared to critical density.

Note that the critical density is approximately 10^-20 grams/cm3

What distance will a vehicle travel before coming to a complete stop from a speed of 70 mph, (a) When the vehicle is traveling o

OLga [1]

Answer:

(a), The SSD will be 723.9 ft.

(b-1), The SSD will be 620.2 ft.

(b-2), The SSD will be $723.91>SSD>620.2$

(c), The SSD will be 910.5 ft.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed = 70 mph

Suppose, a perception reaction time of 2.5 sec and the coefficient of friction is 0.35

We need to calculate the stopping sight distance

Using formula of SSD

$SSD=1.47\times v\times t+\dfrac{v^2}{30\times(f\pm g)}$

Where, v = speed of vehicle

t = perception reaction time

f = coefficient of friction

g = gradient of road

(a). If the gradient of road is zero.

Then, the stopping sight distance will be

$SSD=1.47\times 70\times 2.5+\dfrac{70^2}{30\times(0.35)}$

$SSD=723.9\ ft$

(b-1). If the gradient of road is 0.1

Then, the stopping sight distance will be

$SSD=1.47\times 70\times 2.5+\dfrac{70^2}{30\times(0.35+0.1)}$

$SSD=620.2\ ft$

(b-2). If the grade continuously decrease then the SSD will be increase.

But if the grade is increase then the SSD will be decrease and for flat grade the SSD will be more.

So, The SSD will be $723.91>SSD>620.2$

(c). When the vehicle is traveling downhill on a roadway of constant grade then the vehicle take will be more SSD

So, The SSD will be

$SSD=1.47\times 70\times 2.5+\dfrac{70^2}{30\times(0.35-0.1)}$

$SSD=910.5\ ft$

Hence, (a), The SSD will be 723.9 ft.

(b-1), The SSD will be 620.2 ft.

(b-2), The SSD will be $723.91>SSD>620.2$

(c), The SSD will be 910.5 ft.

A physicist is calibrating a spectrometer that uses a diffraction grating to separate light in order of increasing wavelength (λ

cluponka [151]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

$N=3680 cm^{-1}$

therefore slit spacing $d=\frac{1}{N}=\frac{1}{3680}=2.717\times 10^{-4}\ cm$

since $d\sin \theta =n\lambda$

for $n=1$

$d\sin \theta =\lambda$

Now,at $\theta _1=12.9^{\circ},\Rightarrow \lambda _1=6.0657\times 10^{-7}\ m=606.57\ nm$

at $\theta _2=14.2^{\circ}\Rightarrow \lambda_2=666.5\ nm$

at $\theta _3=15^{\circ}\Rightarrow \lambda_3=703.21\ nm$

A 250 g air-track glider is attached to a spring with springconstant 4.0 N/m. Th damping constant due to air resistance is0.015

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

33.33 seconds

Explanation:

$N=\dfrac{1}{e}N_0$

$N_0$ = Initial length pulled = 20 cm

b = Damping constant = 0.015 kg/s

k = Spring constant = 4 N/m

m = Mass of glider = 250 g

Time period is given by

$T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}\\\Rightarrow T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{0.25}{4}}\\\Rightarrow T=1.57079632679\ s$

Using exponential decay formula

$N=N_0e^{\dfrac{-bt}{m}}$

Final amplitude = Initial times decay

$\dfrac{1}{e}0.2=0.2e^{\dfrac{-0.015t}{2\times 0.25}}\\\Rightarrow 0.2=0.2e^{\frac{-0.015t}{2\cdot \:0.25}+1}\\\Rightarrow e^{\frac{-0.015t}{2\cdot \:0.25}+1}=1\\\Rightarrow \ln \left(e^{\frac{-0.015t}{2\cdot \:0.25}+1}\right)=\ln \left(1\right)\\\Rightarrow \left(\frac{-0.015t}{2\cdot \:0.25}+1\right)\ln \left(e\right)=\ln \left(1\right)\\\Rightarrow \frac{-0.015t}{2\cdot \:0.25}+1=\ln \left(1\right)\\\Rightarrow -\frac{0.015t}{0.5}=-1\\\Rightarrow -0.000225t=-0.0075\\\Rightarrow t=33.33\ s$

The time taken is 33.33 seconds
