Consider two concentric spheres whose radii differ by t = 1 nm, the "thickness" of the interface. On log-log axes, plot the ratio of the shell volume to the interior sphere volume for an interior sphere radius of 10 microns to 1 nm. Assume the shell thickness to be t = 1 nm.

Answer:

3.85 nm

Explanation:

The volume of a sphere is:

V = 4/3 * π * r^3

The volume of a shell is the volume of the big sphere minus the volume of the small sphere

Vs = 4/3 * π * r2^3 - 4/3 * π * r1^3

Vs = 4/3 * π * (r2^3 - r1^3)

If the difference between the radii is 1 nm

r2 = r1 + 1 nm

Vs = 4/3 * π * ((r1 + 1)^3 - r1^3)

Vs = 4/3 * π * ((r1 + 1)^3 - r1^3)

Vs = 4/3 * π * (r1^3 + 3*r1^2 + 3*r1 + 1 - r1^3)

Vs = 4/3 * π * (3*r1^2 + 3*r1 + 1)

The volme of the shell is equall to the volume of the inner shell:

4/3 * π * (r1^3) = 4/3 * π * (3*r1^2 + 3*r1 + 1)

r1^3 = 3*r1^2 + 3*r1 + 1

0 = -r1^3 + 3*r1^2 + 3*r1 + 1

Solving this equation electronically:

r1 = 3.85 nm

A truck using a rope to tow a 2230-kg car accelerates from rest to 13.0 m/s in a time of 15.0s. How strong must the rope be? μk

Leokris [45]

Answer:

The rope must have a force of 10084,21 N

Explanation

Acceleration calculation

The car acceleration is equal to the acceleration of the truck

ac: car acceleration $\frac{m}{s^{2} }$

at: truck acceleration $\frac{m}{s^{2} }$ )

$ac = at= \frac{vf-vi}{t-ti}$ equation(1)

Known information:

vi = Initial speed = 0, ti = initial time = 0

vf = Final speed = 13 $\frac{m}{s}$ , t = final time =5 s

We replaced the known information in the equation(1):

$ac = at = \frac{13-0}{15-0}$

$ac=ac=\frac{13}{15} \frac{m}{s}$

Dynamic analysis

The forces acting on the car are the following:

Wc: Car weight

N: normal force, road force on the car

Ff: Friction force

T: Force of tension

Car weight calculation:

$Wc=mc*g$

mc = Car mass = 2230kg

g = Gravity acceleration=9.8 $\frac{m}{s^{2} }$

$Wc= 2230*9.8$

$Wc=21854 N$

Normal force calculation:

Newton's first law

$sum Fy= 0$

$N-W=0$

$N=W$

$N=21854 N$

Friction force calculation (Ff):

We have the formula to calculate the friction force:

Ff = μk * N Equation (3)

μk kinetic coefficient of friction

We know that μk = 0.373and N= 21854N ,then:

$Ff=0.373*21854$

$Ff=8151.54 N$

Calculation of the tension force in the rope (T):

Newton's Second law

$sum Fx= mc*ac$

$T-Ff=mc*ac$

$T=2230(\frac{13}{15}) + 8151.54$

T=10084,21 N

Answer: The rope must have a force of 10084,21 N

Artyom0805 [142]

He can throw the hammer in the direction opposite to the direction he wants to travel in. The hammer will exert an equal and opposite force on him, as per Newton's third law, and this will help him move towards the space station.

The pupil of the human eye can vary in diameter from 2.00 mm in bright light to 8.00 mm in dim light. The eye has a focal length

Zarrin [17]

The indicated data are of clear understanding for the development of Airy's theory. In optics this phenomenon is described as an optical phenomenon in which The Light, due to its undulatory nature, tends to diffract when it passes through a circular opening.

The formula used for the radius of the Airy disk is given by,

$y_r=1.22\frac{\lambda f}{d}$

Where,

$y_r =$ Range of the radius

$\lambda =$ wavelength

f= focal length

Our values are given by,

State 1:

$d=2.00mm = 2*10^{-3}m$

$f= 25mm = 25*10^{-3}m$

$\lambda = 750nm = 750*10^{-9}m$

State 2:

$d=8.00mm = 8*10^{-3}m$

$f= 25mm = 25*10^{-3}m$

$\lambda = 390nm = 390*10^{-9}$

Replacing in the first equation we have:

$y_{r1} = 1.22\frac{(750*10^{-9})(25*10^{-3})}{2*10^{-3}}$

$y_{r1}= 11.4\mu m$

And also for,

$y_{r2} =1.22\frac{(390*10^{-9})(25*10^{-3})}{8*10^{-3}}$

$y_{r2} = 1.49\mu m$

Therefor, the airy disk radius ranges from $1.49\mu m$ to $11.4\mu m$
