Professor Frank Nabarro insists that all senior physics majors take his notorious physics aptitude test. The test is so tough th

at anyone not going on to a career in physics has no hope of passing, whereas 35% of the seniors who do go on to a career in physics still fail the test. Further, 70% of all senior physics majors in fact go on to a career in physics. Assuming that you fail the test, what is the probability that you will not go on to a career in physics? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

Answer:

0.5504

Explanation:

We can use Bay's theorem to solve this question

P( No physics career/fail) = P(No Physics career and fail)/P(Fail)

= P( Fail/ No physics career)×P( no physics career)/P( fail)

=\frac{0.3\times1}{(0.7\times0.35)+(0.3\times1)}

=0.5504

The specific heat of iron is 0.45j/gk. The amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of the 12 g of iron by exactly 15k?
labwork [276]

Answer:

81 J.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Specific heat capacity (C) = 0.45 J/gK.

Temperature change (ΔT) = 15 K

Mass = 12 g

Heat required (Q) =?

The heat required to raise the temperature of iron can be obtained as illustrated below:

Q = MCΔT

Q = 12 × 0.45 × 15

Q = 81 J

Therefore, the heat required to raise the temperature of the iron is 81 J.

A trombone has a variable length. When a musician blows into the mouthpiece and causes air in the tube of the horn to vibrate, t
Lilit [14]

Answer:

The frequency increases.

Explanation:

When the Musician draws the slide in the length of the horn gets shorter, which causes a decrease in the wavelength. A decrease in the wave length results in an increase in frequency.

Note:

The diameter of the horn has an effect on frequency, so a wider horn is effectively a long horn - open end correction ( distance between the the antinode and the open end of a pipe).

Frequency also depends on how hard the musician blows the trombone. The musician can change the frequency with the lip pressure being applied.
