Consider the diatomic molecule oxygen O2 which is rotating in the xy plane about the z axis passing through its center, perpendi

cular to its length. The mass of each oxygen atom is 2.66 × 10−26 kg, and at room temperature, the average separation distance between the two oxygen atoms is 2.2 × 10−10 m (treat the atoms as point masses). If the angular speed of the molecule about the z axis is 5.49 × 1012 rad/s, what is its rotational kinetic energy? Answer in units of J.

Answer: 9.7*10^-21 J

Explanation:

Given

Mass of oxygen atom, m = 2.66*10^-26 kg

Separation distance between the two atoms, r = 2.2*10^-10 m

Angular speed, w = 5.49*10^12 rad/s

First, we start by finding our moment of Inertia, I, using the relation

I = 1/2mr²

I = 1/2 * 2.66*10^-26 * (2.2*10^-10)²

I = 1/2 * 1.2874*10^-45

I = 6.437*10^-46 kgm²

The Rotational Kinetic Energy is given by

KE = 1/2Iw²

Now, using this value of I, we plug it in the energy equation.

KE = 1/2 * 6.437*10^-46 * (5.49*10^12)²

KE = 1/2 * 1.94*10^-20

KE = 9.7*10^-21 J

Thus, the rotational kinetic energy is 9.7*10^-21 J

When light in vacuum is incident at the polarizing angle (Brewster's angle) on a certain glass slab, the angle of refraction is
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

θ( p ) + θ( r ) = 90  

θ (r) = angle of refraction and θ ( p ) is polarising angle.

given θ ( r ) = 31.8

θ ( p ) = 90 - 31.8 = 58.2 degree

ii ) Tanθ ( p ) = n ( refractive index ) = Tan 58.2 = 1.6

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

8.0 N

Explanation:

Force: This can be defined as the mass of a body and its acceleration. The S.I unit of Force is Newton (N).

Mathematically, Fore is expressed as

F = ma ........................... equation 1

Where F = force, m = mass, a = acceleration.

and

I = mΔv

Δv = I/m ............................ Equation 2

Where I = impulse, m = mass, Δv = change in velocity

Given: I = 6.0 Newton-seconds, m = 0.1 kilogram.

Substituting into equation 2

Δv = 6.0/0.1

Δv = 60 m/s.

But

a = Δv/t

where t = time = 0.75 seconds.

a = 60/0.75

a = 80 m/s²

Substitute the values of a and m into equation 1.

F = 0.1(80)

F = 8.0 N.

Thus the average force produced = 8.0 N

salantis [7]

Answer:

A. Time Division multiple Access (TDMA)

Explanation:

Time-division multiple access (TDMA) is a channel access method for shared-medium networks

It allows several users to share the same frequency channel by dividing the signal into different time slots. The users transmit in rapid succession, one after the other, each using its own time slot.
