The potential energy of a pair of hydrogen atoms separated by a large distance .x is given by L/(x) = —C6/x6, where C6 is a posi

tive constant. What is the force that one atom exerts on the other? Is this force attractive or repulsive?

ivann1987 [24]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

The force that one atom exerts on the other is the negative derivative of the potential energy = \frac{-dL(x)}{dx}

F(x) = - \frac{d}{dx}( -C₆ / x⁷) = - (- (-6) C₆ x⁻⁶ ⁻¹) = - 6C₆ /x⁷

when xis negative, F is positive and when x is positive, F is negative. It is therefore and attractive force and F is always directed to the center

A. How does increasing the voltage of a power supply in an electromagnet affect the strength of the magnetic field?
seropon [69]

PART A)

If we increase the voltage supply in an electromagnet then it will increase the current that is flowing in it

So here due to increase in current there will be increase in the magnetic field due to that electromagnet

PART B)

Here in electric generator the current is produced by rotating a coil between two strong magnets.

So here mechanical energy of rotation of coil is converted into electromagnetic energy.

PART C)

Step up transformer convert the lower voltage input into higher voltage output

here number of turns of coil in output side or secondary number of coils is more than the number of coils in primary side or input side

PART D)

Force on a moving charge is given by

F = q(\vec v \times \vec B)

here we know that

q = 0.000600 C

v = 2.8 \times 10^5 m/s

B = 4.21 T

now from above equation we have

F = 0.0006(2.8\times 10^5)(4.21)

F = 707.3 N

direction of force is given by right hand thumb rule

using that rule we got force downwards

A toaster using a Nichrome heating element operates on 120 V. When it is switched on at 28 ∘С, the heating element carries an in
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

The final temperature of the element = 262.67°C

The power dissipated in the heating element initially = 163.21 W

The power dissipated in the heating element when the current reaches 1.23 A = 147.60 W

Explanation:

Our given parameters include;

A Nichrome heating element operates on 120 V.

Voltage (V) = 120V

Initial Current (I₁) = 1.36 A

Initial Temperature (T₁) = 28°C

Final Current (I₂) = 1.23 A

Final Temperature (T₂) = unknown ????

Temperature dependencies of resistance is given by:

R_{T(2)}=R_1[1+\alpha (T_2-T_1)]            ----------------------    (1)

in which R₁ is the resistance at temperature T₁

R_{T(2) is the resistance at temperature T₂

Given that V= IR

R = \frac{V}{I}

Therefore, the resistance at temperature 28°C is;

R_{28}= \frac{120V}{1.36A}

= 88.24Ω

R_{T(2) = \frac{120V}{1.23A}

= 97.56Ω

From (1) above;

R_{T(2)}=R_1[1+\alpha (T_2-T_1)]      

97.56 = 88.24 [ 1 + 4.5×10⁻⁴(°C)⁻¹(T₂-28°C)]

\frac{97.56}{88.24}= 1+(4.5*10^{-4})(T-28^0C)

1.1056 - 1 = 4.5×10⁻⁴(°C)⁻¹(T₂-28°C)

0.1056 = 4.5×10⁻⁴(T₂-28°C)

\frac{0.1056}{4.5*10^{-4}}= T-28^0C

T - 28° C = 234.67

T = 234.67 + 28° C

T = 262.67 ° C

(b)

What is the power dissipated in the heating element initially and when the current reaches 1.23 A

The power dissipated in the heating element initially can be calculated as:

P = I²₁R₂₈

P = (1.36A)²(88.24Ω)

P = 163.209 W

P ≅ 163.21 W

The power dissipated in the heating element when the current reaches 1.23 A can be calculated as:

P= I^2_2R_{T^0C

P = (1.23)²(97.56Ω)

P = 147.598524

P ≅ 147.60 W

Humans can typically perceive frequencies that range from 20 Hz–20 kHz. Dogs can hear sounds up to 45 kHz. Dog whistles produce
Aleksandr [31]
Pitch is directly related to the frequency of the sound. In this item, we are given that the frequency of the sound is higher compared to those which are audible to the human being's ears. The pitch therefore of the dog's whistle is high. 

On the other hand, the frequency and the wavelength of a certain wave are inversely proportional. This means that the high frequency wave will have a short wavelength. 

Hence, the answer to this item would have to be "high pitch with a short wavelength" 

The answer to this item is the second option.

A beam of protons is moving toward a target in a particle accelerator. This beam constitutes a current whose value is. (a) How m
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

a. 5 × 10¹⁹ protons b. 2.05 × 10⁷ °C

Explanation:

Here is the complete question

A beam of protons is moving toward a target in a particle accelerator. This beam constitutes a current whose value is 0.42 A. (a) How many protons strike the target in 19 seconds? (b) Each proton has a kinetic energy of 6.0 x 10-12 J. Suppose the target is a 17-gram block of metal whose specific heat capacity is 860 J/(kg Co), and all the kinetic energy of the protons goes into heating it up. What is the change in temperature of the block at the end of 19 s?

Solution

a.

i = Q/t = ne/t

n = it/e where i = current = 0.42 A, n = number of protons, e = proton charge = 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C and t = time = 19 s

So n = 0.42 A × 19 s/1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

       = 4.98 × 10¹⁹ protons

       ≅ 5 × 10¹⁹ protons

b

The total kinetic energy of the protons = heat change of target

total kinetic energy of the protons = n × kinetic energy per proton

                                                         = 5 × 10¹⁹ protons × 6.0 × 10⁻¹² J per proton

                                                         = 30 × 10⁷ J

heat change of target = Q = mcΔT ⇒ ΔT = Q/mc where m = mass of block = 17 g = 0.017 kg and c = specific heat capacity = 860 J/(kg °C)

ΔT = Q/mc = 30 × 10⁷ J/0.017 kg × 860 J/(kg °C)

     = 30 × 10⁷/14.62

     = 2.05 × 10⁷ °C
