The mass of the water is 14.9 g

Explanation:

When a certain amount of a susbtance is heated, the temperature of the substance increases according to the equation

Q=mC_s \Delta T

where

Q is the amount of energy supplied to the substance

m is the mass of the substance

C_s is its specific heat capacity

\Delta T is the change in temperature

In this problem, we have:

Q = 2500 J of energy supplied to the water

C_s = 4.186 J/gC is the specific heat capacity of water

\Delta T=60 C - 20 C = 40^{\circ}C is the change in temperature of the water

Therefore we can solve for m to find the mass of the water:

m=\frac{Q}{C_s \Delta T}=\frac{2500}{(4.186)(40)}=14.9 g

An electric field of intensity 3.80 kN/C is applied along the x-axis. Calculate the electric flux through a rectangular plane 0.
lakkis [162]

Answer: 1.55 x 10⁴ Nm²c^-1

Explanation: The electric flux, electric field intensity and area are related by the formulae below.

Φ= EAcosθ,

Where Φ= electric flux (Nm²c^-1)

E =electric field intensity (N/m²)

A = Area (m²)

θ= this is angle between the planar area and the magnetic flux

For our question E=3.80KN/c= 3800 N/c

A= 0.700 x 0.350= 0.245m²

θ= 0° ( this is because the electric field was applied along the x axis, thus the electric flux will be parallel to the area).

Hence Φ= 3800 x 0.245 x cos(0)

= 3800 x 0.245 x 1 (value of cos 0° =1)

= 1.55 x 10⁴ Nm²c^-1

Thus the electric field is 1.55 x 10⁴ Nm²c^-1

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

a)   m_v = m_s ((\frac{w_o}{w})² - 1) ,  b)  m_v = 1.07 10⁻¹⁴ g

Explanation:

a) The angular velocity of a simple harmonic motion is

           w² = k / m

where k is the spring constant and m is the mass of the oscillator

let's apply this expression to our case,

silicon only

         w₉² = \frac{K}{m_s}

         k = w₀² m_s

silicon with virus

         w² = \frac{k}{m_s + m_v}

          k = w² (m_v + m_s)

in the two expressions the constant k is the same and q as the one property of the silicon bar, let us equal

           w₀²  m_s = w² (m_v + m_s)

           m_v = (\frac{w_o}{w})²  m_s - m_s

           m_v = m_s ((\frac{w_o}{w})² - 1)

b) let's calculate

          m_v = 2.13 10⁻¹⁶ [(\frac{20.4}{2.85})² - 1)]

          m_v = 1.07 10⁻¹⁴ g

Two protons are maintained at a separation of nm. Calculate the electric potential due to the two particles at the midpoint betw
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The electric potential is approximately 5.8 V

The resulting direction of the electric field will lie on the line that joins the charges but since it is calculated in the midpoint and the charges are the same we can directly say that its magnitude is zero

Explanation:

The two protons can be considered as point charges. Therefore, the electric potential is given by the point charge potential:

\displaystyle{U=\frac{q}{4\pi \epsilon_0r}} (1)

where q is the charge of the particle, \epsilon_0 the electric permittivity of the vacuum (I assuming the two protons are in a vacuum) and r is the distance from the point charge to the point where the potential is being measured. Because the electric potential is an scalar, we can simply add the contribution of the two potentials in the midpoint between the protons. Thus:

\displaystyle{U_{midpoint}=\frac{q}{4\pi \epsilon_0r}}+\frac{q}{4\pi \epsilon_0r}}=\frac{q}{2\pi \epsilon_0r}}}

Substituting the values q=1.602 \cdot10^{-19}\ C, \displaystyle{\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}=8.99\cdot 10^9 N\cdot m^2\cdot C^{-2}} and r=0.5 \cdot 10^{-9} m we obtain:

\displaystyle{U_{midpoint}=\frac{q}{2\pi \epsilon_0r}}=5.759 \approx 5.8 V}

The resulting direction of the electric field will lie on the line that joins the charges but since it is calculated in the midpoint and the charges are the same we can directly say that its magnitude is zero.
