A car covers 72 kilometers in the first hour of its journey. In the next hour, it covers 90 kilometers. What is the amount of wo
Nina [5.8K]

The work done is 2.8125 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{J}

Work Done = Change in Kinetic Energy (ΔKE)

<u>Explanation</u>

In first 1 hour it travels 72 km

So, Velocity = \frac{\text { distance }}{\text { time }}=\frac{72}{1} k m / h=72 \mathrm{km} / \mathrm{h}=\frac{72000}{3600} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}=20 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

or, Initial Velocity (u) = 20 m/s

Similarly for the next hour it covers 90 km

So, Velocity = \frac{\text { distance }}{\text { time }}=\frac{90}{1} k m / h=90 \mathrm{km} / \mathrm{h}=\frac{90000}{3600} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}=25 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

or, Final Velocity (v) = 20 m/s

Work done = Change in Kinetic Energy (ΔKE)

Work done = ΔKE = \frac{1}{2} m v^{2}-\frac{1}{2} m u^{2}

ΔKE = \frac{1}{2} m\left(v^{2}-u^{2}\right)=\frac{1}{2} \times\left(2.5 \times 10^{3}\right) \times\left(25^{2}-20^{2}\right)

= \frac{2500 \times(625-400)}{2}=\frac{2500 \times 225}{2}=\frac{562500}{2}= 281250 joule  

= 2.8125 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{J}

A spaceship is moving past Earth at 0.99c. The spaceship fires two lasers. Laser A is in the same direction it is traveling, and
REY [17]

Answer:

Vx' = (Vx - u) / (1 - Vx *u / c^2)      velocity transformation formula

In both cases we wish to measure the velocity in the frame of the earth which is moving at speed u = -.99 c relative to the spaceship

VA' = (c + .99c) / (1 - (-.99 c * c) / c^2) = 1.99c / 1.99 = c

VB' = (-c + .99c) / (1 - (-c * -.99c) / c^2) = .01 c / .01 = c

In both cases an observer on earth will observe the light traveling at speed c.

Describe the electrical and chemical changes that lead to an action potential. Define myelin and discuss its effects.
solniwko [45]

Answer:

The outside of a neuron has more sodium ions while at resting state. When a electrical signal is going to pass through, the sodium channels open up first and the positive sodium ions rush inward making the inner side more positive. This is called action potential.

There is layer of fatty substances called as Myelin Sheath over the course of axons. It helps the electrical signal to be transmitted with a fast pace and efficiently over the course.

The density of molybdenum is 10.28 g/cm^3 and it crystallizes in the face centered cubic unit cell. Calculate the edge length of
Effectus [21]

The edge length of the unit cell at the given atomic mass and density of the molybdenum is 314.2 pm.

<h3>Volume of molybdenum</h3>

V = (zm/ρN)

where;

  • z is 2 for cubic unit cell
  • m is mass of the molybdenum
  • ρ is density of the molybdenum

V = (2 x 95.96) / (10.28 x 6.02 x 10²³)

V = 3.10 x 10⁻²³ cm³

<h3>Edge length of the unit cell</h3>

a³ = V

a = (V)^¹/₃

a = ( 3.10 x 10⁻²³)^¹/₃

a = 3.142 x 10⁻⁸ cm

a = 3.142 x 10⁻¹⁰ m

a = 314.2 x 10⁻¹² m

a = 314.2 pm

Thus, the edge length of the unit cell at the given atomic mass and density of the molybdenum is 314.2 pm.
