The uncertainty in position of a proton confined to the nucleus of an atom is roughly the diameter of the nucleus. If this diame

ter is d = 7.8×10−15 m, what is the uncertainty in the proton's momentum?

Answer:

0.135E-19kgm/s

Explanation:

Using the uncertainty principle, we find

Dp = h / (4π Dx)

= (6.63×10-34Js)/4π(3.90×10-15m) = 0.135×10-19kg m/s

Answer:

3120J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

C = Specific heat capacity = 0.8J/g°C

Initial temperature = 20°C

Mass given = 5g

Final temperature = 800°C

Unknown:

Energy given to the mass = ?

Solution:

To find the energy given to the mass, let us simply use the expression below:

H = m c ΔT

H is the unknown, the energy supplied

m is the mass of the substance

c is the specific heat capacity

ΔT is the change in temperature

Input the variables;

H = 5 x 0.8 x (800 - 20) = 3120J

The unit for measuring electric power is the <br> A. ampere.<br> B. volt.<br> C. ohm.<br> D. watt.

Drupady [299]

The correct answer is D: Watt. This unit was named after James Watt, and is used to express the equivalent of one joule per second in energy. In experiments and on the packaging for electrical products such as light-bulbs, the measurement will usually be written in its abbreviated format: W.

A satellite circles the Earth in an orbit whose radius is twice the Earth’s radius. The Earth’s mass is 5.98 x 1024 kg, and its

gavmur [86]

Hello!

Recall the period of an orbit is how long it takes the satellite to make a complete orbit around the earth. Essentially, this is the same as 'time' in the distance = speed * time equation. For an orbit, we can define these quantities:

$d = 2\pi r$ ← The circumference of the orbit

speed = orbital speed, we will solve for this later

time = period

Therefore:

$T = \frac{2\pi r}{v}$

Where 'r' is the orbital radius of the satellite.

First, let's solve for 'v' assuming a uniform orbit using the equation:
$v = \sqrt{\frac{Gm}{r}}$

G = Gravitational Constant (6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²)

m = mass of the earth (5.98 × 10²⁴ kg)

r = radius of orbit (1.276 × 10⁷ m)

Plug in the givens:
$v = \sqrt{\frac{(6.67*10^{-11})(5.98*10^{24})}{(1.276*10^7)}} = 5590.983 m/s$

Now, we can solve for the period:

$T = \frac{2\pi (1.276*10^7)}{5590.983} =\boxed{ 14339.776 s}$
