Which of the following would be used in luminosity calculations?

Daniel [21]

Answer:

1) joule

2) $kgm^{2}/s^{2}$

3) $10\%$

Explanation:

1) Luminosity is the <u>amount of light emitted</u> (measured in Joule) by an object in a unit of<u> time</u> (measured in seconds). Hence in SI units luminosity is expressed as joules per second ( $\frac{J}{s}$ ), which is equal to Watts ( $W$ ).

This amount of light emitted is also called radiated electromagnetic power, and when this is measured in relation with time, the result is also called radiant power emitted by a light-emitting object.

Therefore, if we want to calculate luminosity the Joule as a unit will be used.

2) Work $W$ is expressed as force $F$ multiplied by the distane $d$ :

$W=F.d$

Where force has units of $kgm/s^{2}$ and distance units of $m$ .

If we input the units we will have:

$W=(kgm/s^{2})(m)$

$W=kgm^{2}/s^{2}$ This is 1Joule ( $1 J$ ) in the SI system, which is also equal to $1 Nm$

3) The formula to calculate the percent error is:

$\% error=\frac{|V_{exp}-V_{acc}|}{V_{acc}} 100\%$

Where:

$V_{exp}=7.34 (10)^{-11} Nm^{2}/kg^{2}$ is the experimental value

$V_{acc}=6.67 (10)^{-11} Nm^{2}/kg^{2}$ is the accepted value

$\% error=\frac{|7.34 (10)^{-11} Nm^{2}/kg^{2}-6.67 (10)^{-11} Nm^{2}/kg^{2}|}{6.67 (10)^{-11} Nm^{2}/kg^{2}} 100\%$

$\% error=10.04\% \approx 10\%$ This is the percent error

A hydraulic machine can be used to lift extremely heavy objects. Why is the fluid in the hydraulic machine a liquid rather than

Sauron [17]

Hi,

The force that acts on hydraulic machine is heavy therefore the content must be something that cannot be compressed by that kind of force, the gas can easily be compressed while a liquid is nearly impossible to.

Tarzan and Jane. Because of your concern that incorrect science is being taught to children when they watch cartoons on TV, you

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

The maximum height Tarzan and Jane can swing as a fraction of her initial heigh is ⅓h

Explanation:

Let

m = Mass of Tarzan

M = Mass of Jane

Given

M = 2m

To calculate the maximum height Tarzan and Jane can swing, we make use of the potential energy at their initial and final position.

Reason being that;

At both the initial and final position, velocity is 0, so there's no kinetic energy.

And the potential energy remains the same (i.e constant) at any given point in the system.

Using P.E = mgh.

At initial position, PE1 = mgh

At final position, PE2 = (m + M)gH.

Where h and H represent the initial and final heights.

m + M is the new weight after Jane and Tarzan swing

Equating PE1 to PE2

mgh = (m + M)gH

By substituton (M = 2m)

mgh = (m + 2m)gH

mgh = 3mgH

Make H the subject of the formula

H = mgh/3mg

H = ⅓h

Hence, the maximum height Tarzan and Jane can swing as a fraction of her initial heigh is ⅓h

From the question, the new height looks to be about ½ that of Jane's original position; i.e. ½h

The calculated height is smaller than what the cartoon is showing;

We can conclude that the cartoon is wrong.

What inertia is present in a stretched rubber?

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

You input potential energy into the rubber band system when you stretched the rubber band back. Because it is an elastic system, this is kind of potential energy is specifically called elastic potential energy.
