Answer:

625000 N/ m

Explanation:

m= 20 kg

v= 30 m/s

x= 12 cm

k = ?

Here when the mass when hits at spring its speed is

Vi= 30 m/s

Finally it comes to rest after compressing for 12 cm

i-e Vf = 0 m/s

Distance= S= 12 cm = 0.12 m

using

2aS= Vf2 - Vi2

==> 2a ×0.12 = o- 30 × 30

==> a = 900 ÷ 0.24 = 3750 m/sec2

Now we know;

F = ma

F= -Kx

==> ma= -kx

==> 20 × 3750 = -K × 0.12

==> k = 625000 N/ m

A source at rest emits light of wavelength 500 nm. When it is moving at 0.90c toward an observer, the observer detects light of
Vesna [10]

Answer:

The observer detects light of wavelength is 115 nm.

(b) is correct option

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength of source = 500 nm

Velocity = 0.90 c

We need to calculate the wavelength of observer

Using Doppler effect

\lambda_{o}=\sqrt{\dfrac{1-\beta}{1+\beta}}\lambda_{s}

Where, \beta=\dfrac{c}{v}

\lambda_{o}=\sqrt{\dfrac{c-0.90c}{c+0.90c}}\times500\times10^{-9}

\lambda_{o}=115\ nm

Hence, The observer detects light of wavelength is 115 nm.

A 2.0 kg particle moving along the z-axis experiences the
DochEvi [55]

At point x = 0, the particle accelerates. Since there will be change of velocity at that point. The the force of the particle will change from negative sign to positive sign according to the given figure, we can therefore conclude that the particle will have a turning point at point x = 0.

Given that a 2.0 kg particle moving along the z-axis experiences the  force shown in a given figure.

Force is the product of mass and acceleration. While acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. Both the force and acceleration are vector quantities. They have both magnitude and direction.

If the particle's velocity is  3.0 m/s at x = 0 m, that mean that the particle experience change of velocity at point x = 0. Since the the force of the particle will change from negative sign to positive sign according to the given figure, we can therefore conclude that the particle will have a turning point at point x = 0.

Q10. Explain the Retention time, in GC. What will happen to retention time, if you increase the detector temperature
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

The detector temperature doesn't affect retention time

Explanation:

Retention time is one of the chromatographic parameters. Is defined as the time of a compound spends from injection to detection.

A solute in GC is added to the injector where is volatilized. When volatilized, it pass through a column until the detector.

The detector temperature doesn't affect retention time. To change retention time you must change injector temperature or column temperature. An increase in column or injector temperature results in a decrease in retention time.
