4. A steel cable spanning a river is 220.000 m long when the temperature is 30.°C.

Physics

Answer:

219.9208  m

Explanation:

The new length is given by

New length= Original length *(1-Temperature change*coefficient of

thermal expansion of steel)

Here, the change in temperature is 30^{\circ}-0^{\circ}= 30^{\circ}

New length= 220.000(1-30*12x10^{-6}=219.9208m

Therefore, the new length will be 219.9208 m

harina [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

a)

Ff = μmgcosθ

Ff = 0.28(1600)(9.8)cos(-84)

Ff = 458.9217...

Ff = 460 N

b)  ignoring the curves required at top and bottom which change the friction force significantly, especially at the bottom where centripetal acceleration will greatly increase normal forces and thus friction force.

W = Ffd

W = 458.9217(-49.4/sin(-84)

W = 22,795.6119...

W = 23 kJ

c) same assumptions as part b

The change in potential energy minus the work of friction will be kinetic energy.

KE = PE - W

½mv² = mgh - (μmgcosθ)d

v² = 2(gh - (μgcosθ)(h/sinθ))

v = √(2gh(1 - μcotθ))

v = √(2(9.8)(49.4)(1 - 0.28cot84))

v = 30.6552...

v = 31 m/s

A long, straight, cylindrical wire of radius R carries a current uniformly distributed over its cross section.
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall solve this question with the help of Ampere's circuital law.

Ampere's ,law

∫ B dl = μ₀ I , B is magnetic field at distance x from the axis within wire

we shall find magnetic field at distance x . current enclosed in the area of circle of radius x

=  I x π x²  / π R²

= I x²  /  R²

B x 2π x = μ₀  x current enclosed

B x 2π x = μ₀  x  I x²  /  R²

B =  μ₀   I x  / 2π R²

Maximum magnetic B₀ field  will be when x = R

B₀ = μ₀I   / 2π R

Given

B = B₀ / 3

μ₀   I x  / 2π R² = μ₀I   / 2π R x 3

x = R / 3

b ) The largest value of magnetic field is on the surface of wire

B₀ = μ₀I   / 2π R

At distance x outside , let magnetic field be B

Applying Ampere's circuital law

∫ B dl = μ₀ I

B x 2π x = μ₀ I

B = μ₀ I / 2π x

Given B = B₀ / 3

μ₀ I / 2π x = μ₀I   / 2π R x 3

x = 3R .

A LED light source contains a 0.5-Watts GaAs (Eg =1.43 eV) LED. Assuming that 0.12% of the electric energy is converted to emiss
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

energy emitted by  source per second  = .5 J

Eg = 1.43 eV .

Energy converted into radiation = .5 x .12 = .06 J

energy of one photon = 1.43 eV

= 1.43 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

= 2.288 x 10⁻¹⁹ J .

no of photons generated = .06 / 2.288 x 10⁻¹⁹

= 2.6223 x 10¹⁷

wavelength of photon λ = 1275 / 1.43 nm

= 891.6 nm .

momentum of photon = h / λ  ;  h is plank's constant

= 6.6 x 10⁻³⁴ / 891.6 x 10⁻⁹

= .0074 x 10⁻²⁵ J.s

Total momentum of all the photons generated

= .0074 x 10⁻²⁵  x 2.6223 x 10¹⁷

= .0194 x 10⁻⁸ Js

b ) spectral width in terms of wavelength = 30 nm

frequency width = ?

n = c / λ  , n is frequency , c is velocity of light and λ is wavelength

differentiating both sides

dn = c x dλ / λ²

given dλ = 30 nm

λ = 891.6 nm

dn = 3 x 10⁸ x 30 x 10⁻⁹ / ( 891.6  x 10⁻⁹ )²

= 11.3 x 10¹² Hz .

c )

10 nW = 10  x 10⁻⁹ W

= 10⁻⁸ W .

energy of 50 dB

50 dB = 5 B

I / I₀ = 10⁵   ;   decibel scale is logarithmic , I is energy of sound having dB = 50 and  I₀ = 10⁻¹² W /s

I = I₀ x 10⁵

= 10⁻¹² x 10⁵

= 10⁻⁷ W

= 10 x 10⁻⁸ W

power required

= 10⁻⁸ + 10 x 10⁻⁸ W

= 11  x 10⁻⁸ W.

Which change occurs when an atom undergoes alpha decay?
oee [108]
In an alpha decay, an atom emits an alpha particle. An alpha particle consists of 2 protons and 2 neutrons: this means that during this kind of decay, the original atom loses 2 protons and 2 neutrons from its nucleus.

This also means that the atomic number Z of the element (the atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus) decreases by 2 units in the process, while the mass number A (the mass number is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons) decreases by 4 units.
