Two parallel rods are each 0.69 m in length. They are attached at their centers to a spring that is initially neither stretched

nor compressed. The spring has a spring constant of 130 N/m. When 1200 A of current is in each rod in the same direction, the spring is observed to be compressed by 3.0 cm. Treat the rods as long, straight wires and find the separation between them when the current is present.

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the separation required be d .

Force between rod = 10⁻⁷ x  2 I₁ I₂ L / d

where I₁ and I₂ are current in them , d is distance of separation and L is length of wire .

Force between rod = 10⁻⁷ x  2 x 1200 x  1200 x .69  / d

= .1987 /d

Restoring Force by spring = k x where k is force constant and x is compression .

= 130 x .03

= 3.9 N

For balancing

Restoring Force by spring = Force between rod

.1987 /d = 3.9

d = .1987 /3.9

= .0509 m

= 5.09 cm .

calculate earths velocity of approach toward the sun when earth in its orbit is at an extremum of the latus rectum through the s
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Hello your question is incomplete below is the complete question

Calculate Earths velocity of approach toward the sun when earth in its orbit is at an extremum of the latus rectum through the sun, Take the eccentricity of Earth's orbit to be 1/60 and its Semimajor axis to be 93,000,000

answer : V = 1.624* 10^-5 m/s

Explanation:

First we have to calculate the value of a

a = 93 * 10^6 mile/m  * 1609.344 m

  = 149.668 * 10^8 m

next we will express the distance between the earth and the sun

r = \frac{a(1-E^2)}{1+Ecos\beta }   --------- (1)

a = 149.668 * 10^8

E (eccentricity ) = ( 1/60 )^2

\beta = 90°

input the given values into equation 1 above

r = 149.626 * 10^9 m

next calculate the Earths velocity of approach towards the sun using this equation

v^2 = \frac{4\pi^2 }{r_{c} }   ------ (2)

Note :

Rc = 149.626 * 10^9 m

equation 2 becomes

(V^2 = (\frac{4\pi^{2}  }{149.626*10^9})

therefore : V = 1.624* 10^-5 m/s

A 70-kg boy is surfing and catches a wave which gives him an initial speed of 1.6 m/s. He then drops through a height of 1.60 m,
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

3.6 KJ

Explanation: Given that a 70-kg boy is surfing and catches a wave which gives him an initial speed of 1.6 m/s. He then drops through a height of 1.60 m, and ends with a speed of 8.5 m/s. How much nonconservative work (in kJ) was done on the boy

The workdone = the energy.

There are two different energies in the scenario - the potential energy (P.E ) and the kinetic energy ( K.E )

P.E = mgh

P.E = 70 × 9.8 × 1.6

P.E = 1097.6 J

P.E = 1.098 KJ

K.E = 1/2mv^2

K.E = 1/2 × 70 × 8.5^2

K.E = 2528.75 J

K.E = 2.529 KJ

The non conservative workdone = K.E + P.E

Work done = 1.098 + 2.529

Work done = 3.63 KJ

Therefore, the non conservative workdone is 3.6 KJ approximately

Mount Everest rises to a height of 8,850 m above sea level. At a base camp on the mountain the atmospheric pressure is measured
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

74.86°C

Explanation:

P₂ = Vapour pressure of water at sea level = 760 mmHg

P₁ = Pressure at base camp = 296 mmHg

T₂ = Temperature of water = 373 K

ΔH°vap for H2O = 40.7 kJ/mol = 40700 J/mol

R = Gas constant = 8.314 J/mol K

From Claussius Clapeyron equation

ln\frac{P_2}{P_1}=\frac{\Delta H}{R}\left(\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2}\right)\\\Rightarrow ln\frac{760}{296}=\frac{40700}{8.314}\left(\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{373}\right)\\\Rightarrow ln\frac{760}{296}\times \frac{8.314}{40700}+\frac{1}{373}=\frac{1}{T_1}\\\Rightarrow 0.0028735=\frac{1}{T_1}\\\Rightarrow T_1=347.996\ K

T₁ = 347.996 K = 74.86°C

∴Water will boil at 74.86°C

Suppose there are 100,000 atoms of a radioactive substance that has a ½ life of 10 minutes. How many atoms will remain after 40
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

c. 12,500

Explanation:

Original number of atoms = 100,000 atoms

Half- life  = 10min

Unknown:

The number of atoms that will remain after 10min  = ?

Solution:

The half - life is the time taken for half of a radioactive substance to decay by half.

    Time taken        Number of atom   half life

           10min             100000                   _

           20min             50000                    1

           30min             25000                    2

           40min              12500                     3
