Answer:

$\Huge \boxed{\mathrm{10 \ N}}$

Explanation:

$\sf Force \ (N)=mass \ (kg) \cdot acceleration \ (ms^{-2})$

$F=ma$

The mass is 2 kg.

The acceleration is 5 ms⁻².

$F = 2 \cdot 5$

$F=10$

The force is 10 N.

Can a tank of oxygen gas ever be half empty?

alisha [4.7K]

No. Any amount of gas always expands to completely fill
whatever container it's in.

So, as you take oxygen out of the tank, the pressure of what's
left in the tank certainly becomes less and less, but whatever is
left in the tank always expands and fills the whole tank.

(And then, eventually, when the pressure inside the tank drops
to equal the pressure outside it (atmospheric pressure), you could
cut off the whole top of the tank and nothing more would come out.)

SCUBA divers regularly talk about having a 'full tank', and 'half a tank',
and maybe a 'quarter tank'. But that refers to the amount of time that
the tank can still deliver air to them under water. It's not the amount
of volume inside the tank that's full or empty. The inside of the tank
is always full.

Think about it this way: ==> There's no way to take half of the air
out of a balloon, leaving it half empty and still inflated. Doesn't happen.

You would like to store 8.1 J of energy in the magnetic field of a solenoid. The solenoid has 620 circular turns of diameter 6.6

marta [7]

Answer:

(a) The current needed is 56.92 A

(b) The magnitude of the magnetic field inside the solenoid is 0.134 T

Explanation:

Given;

energy stored in the magnetic field of solenoid, E = 8.1 J

number of turns of the solenoid, N = 620 turns

diameter of the solenoid, D = 6.6 cm = 0.066 m

radius of the solenoid, r = D/2 = 0.033 m

length of the solenoid, L = 33 cm = 0.33 m

Inductance of the solenoid is given as;

$L= \frac{\mu_o N^2 A}{l}$

where;

A is the area of the solenoid = πr² = π (0.033)² = 0.00342 m²

μ₀ is permeability of free space = 4π x 10⁻⁷ H/m

$L= \frac{4\pi*10^{-7} *620^2 *0.00342}{0.33} \\\\L = 0.005 \ H$

(A). How much current needed

Energy stored in magnetic field of solenoid is given as;

$E = \frac{1}{2} LI^2\\\\$

Where;

I is the current in the solenoid

$E = \frac{1}{2} LI^2\\\\I^2 = \frac{2E}{L}\\\\I = \sqrt{\frac{2*8.1}{0.005}}\\\\ I = 56.92 \ A$

(B) The magnitude of the magnetic field inside the solenoid

B = μ₀nI

where;

n is number of turns per unit length

B = μ₀(N/L)I

B = (4π x 10⁻⁷)(620/0.33)(56.92)

B = 0.134 T

$U_B = \frac{B^2}{2\mu_0} \\\\U_B = \frac{(0.134)^2}{2*4\pi*10^{-7}} \\\\U_B = 7143.54 \ J/m^3\\\\U_B = 7.144 \ kJ/m^3$

Why is the EM important?

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

It is important because it furnishes information about the composition, the temperature and maybe the mass or relative velocity of the body that emits or absorbs it.

How long a time t will it take for the 133 54xe to decay so that eventually its activity decreases by a factor of 1024?

serg [7]

Base on my research the radioactive isotope X-133 has a half-life of 5 days. So base on the given it decreases by a factor of 1024, it represents 10 halvings. To get how long will it take for the 133 54xe to decay, just multiply 5 days with 10 halvings. The answer is 50 days for the 133 54xe to decay.
