Answer:

a. If c = 20 cm, then the mass of the brain is m = 5 g.

b. At c = 20 cm, the brain's mass is increasing at a rate of 15.75 g/cm.

Explanation:

From the equation

m\left(c\right) = \frac{c^3}{100}-\frac{1500}{c}

we have

a. for c = 20 cm

m\left(20\right)=\frac{20^3}{100}-\frac{1500}{20}=5,

then the mass is m(20) = 5 g.

b. In order to find the rate of change, first we derivate

\frac{dm}{dc}=\frac{3c^2}{100}+\frac{1500}{c^2}.

Evaluated at c = 20 cm, we have

\frac{dm}{dc}|_{c=20}=\frac{3\times 20^2}{100}+\frac{1500}{20^2}=15.75.

So, at c = 20 cm, the mass of the brain is increasing at a rate of 15.75 g/cm.

A grating has 470 lines/mm. how many orders of the visible wavelength 538 nm can it produce in addition to the m = 0 order?
Natali [406]

Three complete orders on each side of the m=0 order can be produced in addition to the m=0 order.

The ruling separation is d=1/(470mm-1)

= 2.1 \times 10 {}^{ - 3}mm

Diffraction lines occurs at an angle θ such that dsin=mλ,when λ is the wavelength and m is an integer.

Notice that for a given order,the line associated with a long wavelength is produced at a greater angle than the line associated with shorter wavelength.

we take λ to be the longest wavelength in the visible spectrum (538nm) and find the greatest integer value of m such that θ is less than 90°.

That is,find the greater integer value of m for which mλ<d.

since,d/λ

= 538 \times 10 {}^{ - 9} m/2.1 \times 10 {}^{ - 6}

There are three complete orders on each side of the m=0 order.

The second and third orders overlap.

25 POINTS!!! NEED ASAP!
Lynna [10]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The amount of momentum that an object has is dependent upon two variables: how much stuff is moving and how fast the stuff is moving. Momentum depends upon the variables mass and velocity. In terms of an equation, the momentum of an object is equal to the mass of the object times the velocity of the object.

HOPE THIS HELPS :)
