Answer:

The volume of water displaced by the raft is 0.233 m³

Explanation:

The question relates to Archimedes' principle which states that the buoyant force experienced by an object immersed in a fluid is equal to the weight of (the force of gravity on) the displaced fluid

The given parameters are;

The combined mass of the person and the raft, m = 233 kg

The liquid on which the raft is located = Water

The density of water, $\rho _{water}$ = 1000 kg/m³

Weight = Mass, m × g

Where;

m = The mass of the object

g = The acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Given that the raft is on the surface of the water (floating), the buoyant force is equal to the combined weight of the person and the raft = 233 kg

The combined weight of the person and the raft, $W_{combined}$ = 233 kg × 9.8 m/s² = 2,283.4 N

Therefore;

The buoyant force = 2,283.4 N = The weight of the water displaced

The mass of the water displaced, $m_{water}$ , = 2,283.4 N/(9.8 m/s²) = 233 kg

Density = Mass/Volume

The volume of water displaced by the raft = The mass of the water displaced/(The density of the water) = 233 kg/(1,000 kg/m³) = 0.233 m³.

crimeas [40]

Answer:

(a) 0.3778 eV

(b) Ratio = 0.0278

Explanation:

The Bohr's formula for the calculation of the energy of the electron in nth orbit is:

$E=\frac {-13.6}{n^2}\ eV$

(a) The energy of the electron in n= 6 excited state is:

$E=\frac {-13.6}{6^2}\ eV$

$E=-0.3778\ eV$

Ionisation energy is the amount of this energy required to remove the electron. Thus, |E| = 0.3778 eV

(b) For first orbit energy is:

$E=\frac {-13.6}{1^2}\ eV$

$E=-13.6\ eV$

$Ratio=\frac {E_6}{E_1}$

$Ratio=\frac {-0.3778}{-13.6}$

Ratio = 0.0278

forsale [732]

Answer:

v = 5.24[m/s]

Explanation:

Este problema se puede resolver por medio del principio de la conservación de la energía, donde la energía potencial es igual a la energía cinética. Es decir a medida que el carrito desciende su energía potencial disminuye, pero su energía cinética aumenta.

$E_{kin}=E_{pot}$

Donde:

$E_{kin}=\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2} \\\\E_{pot}=m*g*h$

Ahora reemplazando:

$\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2}=m*g*h\\\\0.5*v^{2}=9.81*1.4\\v=\sqrt{\frac{9.81*1.4}{0.5} } \\\\v=5.24[m/s]$

If the electron just misses the upper plate as it emerges from the field, find the magnitude of the electric field.

Damm [24]

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric field be 171.76 N/C so that the electron misses the plate.

Explanation:

As data is incomplete here, so by seeing the complete question from the search the data is

vx_0=1.1 x 10^6

ax=0 As acceleration is zero in the horizontal axis so

Equation of motion in horizontal direction is given as

$s_x=v_x_0 t$

$t=\frac{s_x}{v_x}\\t=\frac{2 \times 10^{-2}}{1.1 \times 6}\\t=1.82 \times 10^{-8} s$

Now for the vertical distance

vy_o=0

than the equation of motion becomes

$s_y=v_y_0 t+\frac{1}{2} at^2\\s_y=\frac{1}{2} at^2\\0.5 \times 10^{-2}=\frac{1}{2} a(1.82 \times 10^{-8})^2\\a=3.02 \times 10^{13} m/s^2$

Now using this acceleration the value of electric field is calculated as

$E=\frac{F}{q}\\E=\frac{ma}{q}\\E=\frac{m_ea}{q_e}\\$

Here a is calculated above, m is the mass of electron while q is the charge of electron, substituting values in the equation

$E=\frac{9.1\times 10^{-31} \times 3.02 \times 10^{13} }{1.6 \times 10^{-19}}\\E=171.76 N/C$

So the magnitude of the electric field be 171.76 N/C so that the electron misses the plate.
