An apparatus is used to prepare an atomic beam by heating a collection of atoms to a temperature T and allowing the beam to emer

ge through a hole of diameter d in one side of the oven. The beam then travels through a straight path of length L. Show that the uncertainty principle causes the diameter of the beam at the end of the path to bt larger than d by an amount of order Lh/d Squareroot 3mkT, where m is the mass of an atom.

An athlete is running a 400m race around a 400m track. On the backstretch the athlete's velocity is 8m/s but he is running into
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

33 N

Explanation:

v = Velocity of fluid = 8+2 = 10 m/s

\rho = Density of fluid = 1.2 kg/m³

C = Coefficient of drag = 1.1

A = Cross sectional area = 0.5 m²

Drag force is given by

F=\frac{1}{2}\rho CAv^2\\\Rightarrow F=\frac{1}{2}\times 1.2\times 1.1\times 0.5\times (8+2)^2\\\Rightarrow F=33\ N

The drag force on the athlete is 33 N

She knows the speed limit in the area, and also saw the speed you were going on the speedometer. The speed you were going was faster than the limit allowed, so that's how she knew you were going too fast.

Two tugboats pull a disabled supertanker. Each tug exerts a constant force of 1.60×106 N, one at an angle 13.0 west of north, an
Juliette [100K]

Answer:W=1.93\times 10^9 J      

Explanation:

Given

Force F=1.6\times 10^{6} N

one at an angle of 13^{\circ} East of North and another at 13^{\circ} West of North

Net Force is in North Direction

F_{net}=2F\cos 13

Forces in horizontal direction will cancel out each other

thus Work done will be by north direction forces  

W=2F\cdot \cos 30\cdot s

here s=0.7 km

W=2\times 1.6\times 10^{6}\cdot \cos 30\cdot 700

W=1.93\times 10^9 J

The Graph above shows the speed of a car traveling in a straight line as a function of time. The car accelerates uniformly and r
devlian [24]

Answer:

Where is the graph??

If a car travels from zero to 4 m/s ins 8 sec

a = 4 / 8 = .5 m/s^2

V (2) = 2 * .5 = 1 m/s after 2 sec

S = V t + 1/2 a t^2

S = 1 * 3.9 + 1/2 * 1/2 *3.9^2 = 3.9 + 3.80 = 7.70 m   from 2 to 5.9  sec

Check:

Total distance traveled = 1/2 a t^2 = 5.9^2 / 4 = 8.70 m

Distance traveled in 2 sec = 1/2 * 1/2 * 4 = 1 m

Total distance from 2 to 5.9 = 8.7 - 1 = 7.7 m agreeing with thw above
