Answer:

€0.98 per liter = 4.377 doller per gallon

Explanation:

It is given that, In Europe, gas cost approximately €0.98 per liter. We need to convert it into dollars($) per gallon.

We know that, 1 euro = 1.18 United States Dollar

1 litre = 0.264172 US gallon

Cost of gas in Europe is €0.98 per liter.

$0.98\ \text{euro/ liter}=\dfrac{0.98\times 1.18\ \text{doller}}{0.264172\ \text{gallon}}\\\\=4.377\ \text{doller/gallon}$

Two neutron stars are separated by a distance of 1.0 x 1012 m. They each have a mass of 1.0 x 1028 kg and a radius of 1.0 x 103

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Gravitational Potential Energy.

Gravitational potential energy can be defined as

$PE = -\frac{GMm}{R}$

As M=m, then

$PE = -\frac{Gm^2}{R}$

Where,

m = Mass

G =Gravitational Universal Constant

R = Distance /Radius

PART A) As half its initial value is u'=2u, then

$U = -\frac{2Gm^2}{R}$

$dU = -\frac{2Gm^2}{R}$

$dKE = -dU$

Therefore replacing we have that,

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 =\frac{Gm^2}{2R}$

Re-arrange to find v,

$v= \sqrt{\frac{Gm}{R}}$

$v = \sqrt{\frac{6.67*10^{-11}*1*10^{28}}{1*10^{12}}}$

$v = 816.7m/s$

Therefore the velocity when the separation has decreased to one-half its initial value is 816m/s

PART B) With a final separation distance of 2r, we have that

$2r = 2*10^3m$

Therefore

$dU = Gm^2(\frac{1}{R}-\frac{1}{2r})$

$v = \sqrt{Gm(\frac{1}{2r}-\frac{1}{R})}$

$v = \sqrt{6.67*10^{-11}*10^{28}(\frac{1}{2*10^3}-\frac{1}{10^{12}})}$

$v = 1.83*10^7m/s$

Therefore the velocity when they are about to collide is $1.83*10^7m/s$

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

quality factor (Q) = 69.99

inductor = 1.591 x 10⁻⁴ H

capacitor = 3.248 x 10⁻¹⁰ F

Explanation:

Given;

resonance frequency (F₀) = 700 kHz

resistor, R = 10 Ohm

bandwidth (BW) = 10 kHz

bandwidth (BW) $= \frac{R}{2\pi L}$

$BW = \frac{R}{2\pi L}$

make L (inductor) the subject of the formula

$L = \frac{R}{2\pi *BW} = \frac{10}{2\pi *10,000} =1.591 *10^{-4} \ H = \ 0.1591\ mH$

$F_o =\frac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{LC} } \\\\\sqrt{LC} = \frac{1}{2\pi F_o} \\\\LC = \frac{1}{4\pi ^2F_o^2}= \frac{1}{4\pi ^2(700,000)^2} = 5.168*10^{-14}$

make C (capacitor) the subject of the formula

$C = \frac{5.168*10^{-14}}{1.591*10^{-4}} = 3.248*10^{-10} \ F = \ 3.248*10^{-4} \ \mu F$

quality factor (Q) $= \frac{1}{R} \sqrt{\frac{L}{C}} \ = \frac{1}{10} \sqrt{\frac{1.591*10^{-4}}{3.248*10^{-10}}}=69.99$

quality factor (Q) = 69.99

What is the answer to this question

scoundrel [369]

Answer: A

Explanation:

Molecules speed up as heat is added

For example when water is heated as the water gets hotter the molecules speed up causing the water to boil and change phases into a gas (this is called evaporation)

In an ice cube the water molecules are frozen (barely moving compressed tight together) as the ice cube heats up the molecules start speeding up and moving further apart as the ice cube turns into liquid form. So as heat is added molecules speed up, move faster and spread further apart
