What is the half life-life of your 100 atoms of Carbon-14?
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

Answer: It takes 5,730 years for half the carbon-14 to change to nitrogen; this is the half-life of carbon-14. After another 5,730 years only one-quarter of the original carbon-14 will remain

Explain the relationship between the current output of the power supply and the current through each component in the parallel c
baherus [9]

Explanation:

Current output at the battery will be current of entire circuit, while the current through each bulb in the parallel circuit is the total current circuit.

So, current output through power supply is i and current through each component be i_1, i_2 , i_3 considering only three component.

Then in a parallel circuit

i = i_1+i_2+i_3

Each plate of a parallel‑plate capacitor is a square of side 4.19 cm, 4.19 cm, and the plates are separated by 0.407 mm. 0.407 m
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

The electric field strength inside the capacitor is 49880.77 N/C.

Explanation:

Given:

Side length of the capacitor plate (a) = 4.19 cm = 0.0419 m

Separation between the plates (d) = 0.407 mm = 0.407\times 10^{-3}\ m

Energy stored in the capacitor (U) = 7.87\ nJ=7.87\times 10^{-9}\ J

Assuming the medium to be air.

So, permittivity of space (ε) = 8.854\times 10^{-12}\ F/m

Area of the square plates is given as:

A=a^2=(0.0419\ m)^2=1.75561\times 10^{-3}\ m^2

Capacitance of the capacitor is given as:

C=\dfrac{\epsilon A}{d}\\\\C=\frac{8.854\times 10^{-12}\ F/m\times 1.75561\times 10^{-3}\ m^2 }{0.407\times 10^{-3}\ m}\\\\C=3.819\times 10^{-11}\ F

Now, we know that, the energy stored in a parallel plate capacitor is given as:

U=\frac{CE^2d^2}{2}

Rewriting in terms of 'E', we get:

E=\sqrt{\frac{2U}{Cd^2}}

Now, plug in the given values and solve for 'E'. This gives,

E=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 7.87\times 10^{-9}\ J}{3.819\times 10^{-11}\ F\times (0.407\times 10^{-3})^2\ m^2}}\\\\E=49880.77\ N/C

Therefore, the electric field strength inside the capacitor is 49880.77 N/C

A puck of mass 0.110 kg slides across ice in the positive x-direction with a kinetic friction coefficient between the ice and pu
lara [203]

Answer:

a) Ffr = -0.18 N

b) a= -1.64 m/s2

c) t = 9.2 s

d) x = 68.7 m.

e) W= -12.4 J

f) Pavg = -1.35 W

g) Pinst = -0.72 W

Explanation:

a)

  • While the puck slides across ice, the only force acting in the horizontal direction, is the force of kinetic friction.
  • This force is the horizontal component of the contact force, and opposes to the relative movement between the puck and the ice surface, causing it to slow down until it finally comes to a complete stop.
  • So, this force can be written as follows, indicating with the (-) that opposes to the movement of the object.

       F_{frk} = -\mu_{k} * F_{n} (1)

       where μk is the kinetic friction coefficient, and Fn is the normal force.

  • Since the puck is not accelerated in the vertical direction, and there are only two forces acting on it vertically (the normal force Fn, upward, and  the weight Fg, downward), we conclude that both must be equal and opposite each other:

      F_{n} = F_{g} = m*g (2)

  • We can replace (2) in (1), and substituting μk by its value, to find the value of the kinetic friction force, as follows:

       F_{frk} = -\mu_{k} * F_{n} = -0.167*9.8m/s2*0.11kg = -0.18 N (3)

b)

  • According Newton's 2nd Law, the net force acting on the object is equal to its mass times the acceleration.
  • In this case, this net force is the friction force which we have already found in a).
  • Since mass is an scalar, the acceleration must have the same direction as the force, i.e., points to the left.
  • We can write the expression for a as follows:

        a= \frac{F_{frk}}{m} = \frac{-0.18N}{0.11kg} = -1.64 m/s2  (4)

c)

  • Applying the definition of acceleration, choosing t₀ =0, and that the puck comes to rest, so vf=0, we can write the following equation:

        a = \frac{-v_{o} }{t} (5)

  • Replacing by the values of v₀ = 15 m/s, and a = -1.64 m/s2, we can solve for t, as follows:

       t =\frac{-15m/s}{-1.64m/s2} = 9.2 s (6)

d)

  • From (1), (2), and (3) we can conclude that the friction force is constant, which it means that the acceleration is constant too.
  • So, we can use the following kinematic equation in order to find the displacement before coming to rest:

        v_{f} ^{2} - v_{o} ^{2} = 2*a*\Delta x  (7)

  • Since the puck comes to a stop, vf =0.
  • Replacing in (7) the values of v₀ = 15 m/s, and a= -1.64 m/s2, we can solve for the displacement Δx, as follows:

       \Delta x  = \frac{-v_{o}^{2}}{2*a} =\frac{-(15.0m/s)^{2}}{2*(-1.64m/s2} = 68.7 m  (8)

e)

  • The total work done by the friction force on the object , can be obtained in several ways.
  • One of them is just applying the work-energy theorem, that says that the net work done on the object is equal to the change in the kinetic energy of the same object.
  • Since the final kinetic energy is zero (the object stops), the total work done by friction (which is the only force that does work, because the weight and the normal force are perpendicular to the displacement) can be written as follows:

W_{frk} = \Delta K = K_{f} -K_{o} = 0 -\frac{1}{2}*m*v_{o}^{2} =-0.5*0.11*(15.0m/s)^{2}   = -12.4 J  (9)

f)

  • By definition, the average power is the rate of change of the energy delivered to an object (in J) with respect to time.
  • P_{Avg} = \frac{\Delta E}{\Delta t}  (10)
  • If we choose t₀=0, replacing (9) as ΔE, and (6) as Δt, and we can write the following equation:

       P_{Avg} = \frac{\Delta E}{\Delta t} = \frac{-12.4J}{9.2s} = -1.35 W (11)

g)

  • The instantaneous power can be deducted from (10) as W= F*Δx, so we can write P= F*(Δx/Δt) = F*v (dot product)
  • Since F is constant, the instantaneous power when v=4.0 m/s, can be written as follows:

       P_{inst} =- 0.18 N * 4.0m/s = -0.72 W (12)
