Two identical pendulums have the same period when measured in the factory. While one pendulum swings on earth, the other is take

n on a spaceship traveling at 95%% the speed of light. Assume that both pendulums operate under the influence of the same net force and swing through the same angle.
When observed from earth, how many oscillations does the pendulum on the spaceship undergo compared to the pendulum on earth in a given time interval?
a. more oscillations
b. fewer oscillations
c. the same number of oscillations

Answer:

Explanation:

As a result of impact of time widening, a clock moving as for an observer seems to run all the more gradually than a clock that is very still in the observer's casing.  

At the point when observed from earth, the pendulum on the spaceship takes more time to finish one oscillation.  

Hence, the clock related with that pendulum will run more slow (gives fewer oscillations as observed from the earth)  than the clock related with the pendulum on earth.

Ans => B fewer oscillations

The vapor pressure of benzene, C6H6, is 40.1 mmHg at 7.6°C. What is its vapor pressure at 60.6°C? The molar heat of vaporization
ANEK [815]

Answer:

The vapor pressure at 60.6°C is 330.89 mmHg

Explanation:

Applying Clausius Clapeyron Equation

ln(\frac{P_2}{P_1}) = \frac{\delta H}{R}[\frac{1}{T_1}- \frac{1}{T_2}]

Where;

P₂ is the final vapor pressure of benzene = ?

P₁ is the initial vapor pressure of benzene = 40.1 mmHg

T₂ is the final temperature of benzene = 60.6°C = 333.6 K

T₁ is the initial temperature of benzene = 7.6°C = 280.6 K

ΔH is the molar heat of vaporization of benzene = 31.0 kJ/mol

R is gas rate = 8.314 J/mol.k

ln(\frac{P_2}{40.1}) = \frac{31,000}{8.314}[\frac{1}{280.6}- \frac{1}{333.6}]\\\\ln(\frac{P_2}{40.1}) = 3728.65 (0.003564 - 0.002998)\\\\ln(\frac{P_2}{40.1}) = 3728.65  (0.000566)\\\\ln(\frac{P_2}{40.1}) = 2.1104\\\\\frac{P_2}{40.1} = e^{2.1104}\\\\\frac{P_2}{40.1} = 8.2515\\\\P_2 = (40.1*8.2515)mmHg = 330.89 mmHg

Therefore, the vapor pressure at 60.6°C is 330.89 mmHg

Problem:
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

Total energy is constant

Explanation:

The laws of thermodynamics state that thermal energy (heat) is always transferred from a hot body (higher temperature) to a cold body (lower temperature).

This is because in a hot body, the molecules on average have more kinetic energy (they move faster), so by colliding with the molecules of the cold body, they transfer part of their energy to them. So, the temperature of the hot body decreases, while the temperature of the cold body increases.

This process ends when the two bodies reach the same temperature: we talk about thermal equilibrium.

In this problem therefore, this means that the thermal energy is transferred from the hot water to the cold water.

However, the law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system is constant: therefore here, if we consider the hot water + cold water as an isolated system (no exchange of energy with the surroundings), this means that their total energy remains constant.

The wavelength of red helium-neon laser light in air is 632.8 nm.(a) What is its frequency? Hz(b) What is its wavelength in glas
vekshin1
<h2>Answers:</h2>

The speed of a wave is given by:

v=f.\lambda  (1)

Where f is the frequency and  \lambda the wavelength.

In the case of light, its speed is:

c=f.\lambda (2)

On the other hand, the described situation is known as Refraction,   a phenomenon in which the light changes its direction when passing through a medium with a refractive index different from the other medium.  

In this context, the Refractive index n is a number that describes how fast light propagates through a medium or material, and is defined as the relation between the speed of light in vacuum (c=3(10)^{8}m/s) and the speed of light v in the second medium:

n=\frac{c}{v} (3)

In addition, as the light changes its direction, its wavelength changes as well:

n=\frac{\lambda_{air}}{\lambda_{glass}} (4)

Knowing this, let's begin with the answers:

<h2>a) Frequency</h2>

From equation (2) we can find f:

f=\frac{c}{\lambda}  (5)

Knowing that 1nm=(10)^{-9}m:

f=\frac{3(10)^{8}m/s}{632.8(10)^{-9}m}  

f=4.74(10)^{14}Hz}     (6)   >>>Frequency of the helium-neon laser light

<h2>b) Wavelength in glass</h2>

We already know the wavelength of the light in air \lambda_{air} and the index of refraction of the glass.

So, we only have to find the wavelength in glass \lambda_{glass} from equation (4):

\lambda_{glass}=\frac{\lambda_{air}}{n}

\lambda_{glass}=\frac{632.8(10)^{-9}m}{1.48}

\lambda_{glass}=427(10)^{-9}m=427nm   (7)   >>>Wavelength of the helium-neon laser light in glass

<h2>c) Speed in glass</h2>

From equation (3) we can find the speed vof this light in glass:

v=\frac{c}{n}

v=\frac{3(10)^{8}m/s}{1.48}

v=2.027(10)^{8}m/s   (8)  >>>Speed of the helium-neon laser light in glass
