Scientists use Atomic clock to measure time

Anna35 [415]2 years ago

Scientists are actually working on a type of clock that is more accurate than the atomic clocks we use today. It is called an optical atomic clock and it measures atomic oscillations using light from the visible spectrum.

An experiment is done to compare the initial speed of projectiles fired from high-performance catapults. The catapults are place

anzhelika [568]

Answer:1.084

Explanation:

Given

mass of Pendulum M=10 kg

mass of bullet m=5.5 gm

velocity of bullet u

After collision let say velocity is v

conserving momentum we get

$mu=(M+m)v$

$v=\frac{m}{M+m}\times u$

Conserving Energy for Pendulum

Kinetic Energy=Potential Energy

$\frac{(M+m)v^2}{2}=(M+m)gh$

here $h=L(1-\cos \theta )$ from diagram

therefore

$v=\sqrt{2gL(1-\cos \theta )}$

initial velocity in terms of v

$u=\frac{M+m}{m}\times \sqrt{2gL(1-\cos \theta )}$

For first case $\theta =6.8^{\circ}$

$u_1=\frac{M+m_1}{m_1}\times \sqrt{2gL(1-\cos 6.8)}$

for second case $\theta =11.4^{\circ}$

$u_2=\frac{M+m_2}{m_2}\times \sqrt{2gL(1-\cos 11.4)}$

Therefore $\frac{u_1}{u_2}=\frac{\frac{M+m_1}{m_1}\times \sqrt{2gL(1-\cos 6.8)}}{\frac{M+m_2}{m_2}\times \sqrt{2gL(1-\cos 11.4)}}$

$\frac{u_1}{u_2}=\frac{1819.181\times 0.0838}{1001\times 0.1404}$

$\frac{u_1}{u_2}=1.084$

i.e. $\frac{v_1}{v_2}=1.084$

A 45-gram object that has a volume of 9 mL has a density of

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

<h2> The answer is </h2><h2>a. 5g/mL</h2>

Explanation:

Given data

mass m= 45g

volume v= 9mL

we know that density=m/v

substituting our given data we have

$density=\frac{45}{9} =5g/mL$

What is Density?

The Density of a body can be defined as the ratio of mass to volume,

Density, mass of a unit volume of a material substance. The formula for density is $Density= \frac{mass}{volume}$ ,

where d is density,

M is mass, and

V is volume.

Density is commonly expressed in units of grams per cubic centimetre.

Thermal conductivity of a material is given as 129Btuft–¹ h–¹°F–¹.Calculate this thermal conductivity in Jm–¹s–¹°C–¹(Given: 1Btu

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

223.25 $\text{Jm}^{-1}\text{s}^{-1}^\circ\text{C}^{-1}$

Explanation:

The thermal conductivity of an object is defined as the measure or the ability of the object to transfer heat or conduct heat through its body.

In the context, the thermal conductivity of the material is given as

$=129 \text{ Btu ft}^{-1}\text{h}^{-1}^\circ\text{F}^{-1}$

And it is given that :

1 Btu = 1055 J

1 ft = 0.3048 m

$1^\circ F = \frac{5}{9}^\circ C$

We know that 1 h = 3600 s

So the thermal conductivity of the material in $\text{Jm}^{-1}\text{s}^{-1}^\circ\text{C}^{-1}$ is :

Thermal conductivity :

$=\frac{129 \text{ Btu}}{1 \text{ ft }\times \text{1 h}\times 1^\circ\text{F}}$

$=\frac{129 \times 1055 \text{ J}}{0.3048 \text{ m} \ \times 3600 \text{ s}\ \times \frac{5}{9}^\circ \text{C}}$

= 223.25 $\text{Jm}^{-1}\text{s}^{-1}^\circ\text{C}^{-1}$
