Small, slowly moving spherical particles experience a drag force given by Stokes' law: Fd = 6πηrv where r is the radius of the p

Dominik [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

At the time of a body achieving terminal velocity, the drag force becomes equal to the weight of the body less the buoyant force by the surrounding medium which can be represented by the following equation

$\frac{4\pi\times r^3(d-\rho)}{3} =6\pi\times n\times r\times v$

Where r is radius of the body , d is density of the material of the body σ is density of the medium and n is coefficient of viscosity of the medium and v is terminal velocity.

Simplifying

v = $\frac{2\times r^2(d-\rho)}{9\times n}$

Assuming the value of density of air as 1.225 kg/m³ and putting other given values in the formula we get

v = $[tex]\frac{2\times (1.2\times10^{-5})^2(2182-1.225)}{9\times 1.8\times10^{-5}}$ [/tex]

v = 387 x 10⁻⁵ m/s

Terminal velocity = 387 x 10⁻⁵ m/s

Time taken to fall a distance of 100 m

= $\frac{100}{387\times10^{-5}}$

= 2.6 x 10⁴ s.

The answers to all the research related questions are written below.

Atom is the smallest unit of the element. Different elements have different size atoms and same element have same size atoms.

James Chadwick tracked down the neutron in 1932 and was conceded the Nobel Prize for science in 1935 held in a German prison camp for all of World War 1, he driven the British gathering inside the Manhattan Extend, in which the UK and Canada maintained the USA's World War 2 effort to build the world with nuclear bomb.

Chadwick and Rutherford were the first scientists who measured the nucleus radius using the alpha particles. He did Gold foil experiment to find the size of nucleus.

The contributions are present in the modern atomic model. They are: All matter consists of atoms. Atoms of the same element are the same in size and atoms of different elements are different. Atoms combine in whole-number ratios to form compounds.

The energy band gap of GaAs is 1.4eV. calculate the optimum wavelength of light for photovoltaic generation in a GaAs solar cell

Viktor [21]

Answer:

λ = 8.88 x 10⁻⁷ m = 888 nm

Explanation:

The energy band gap is given as:

Energy Gap = E = 1.4 eV

Converting this to Joules (J)

E = (1.4 eV)(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J/1 eV)

E = 2.24 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

The energy required for photovoltaic generation is given as:

E = hc/λ

where,

h = Plank's Constant = 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

λ = wavelength of light = ?

Therefore,

2.24 x 10⁻¹⁹ J = (6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)/λ

λ = (6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(2.24 x 10⁻¹⁹ J)

A 2.0 kg sphere with a velocity of 6.0 m/s collides head-on and elastically with a stationary 10 kg sphere

dmitriy555 [2]

Question: A 2.0 kg sphere with a velocity of 6.0 m/s collides head-on and elastically with a stationary 10 kg sphere, What is thier velocities after collision.

Answer:

v = 6 m/s, v' = 0 m/s

Explanation:

From the question,

For Elastic collision,

mu+m'u' = mv+m'v'......................... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the first sphere, m' = mass of the second sphere, u = initial velocity of the first sphere, u' = initial velocity of the second sphere, v = final veolocity of the first sphere, v' = final velocity of the second sphere.

Also,

The relative velocity before collision = relative velocity after collision

u-u' = v-v'............................ Equation 2

Given: m = 2 kg, m' = 10 kg, u = 6 m/s, u' = 0 m/s

Substitute into equation 1 and 2

2(6)+10(0) = 2v+10v'

2v+10v' = 12.............. Equation 3

6-0 = v-v'

v-v' = 6 ................... Equation 4

Solve equation 3 and 4 simultaneously.

v = 6+v'............. Equation 5

Substitute equation 5 into equation 3

2(6+v')+10v' = 12

12+2v'+10v' = 12

12v' = 12-12

v' = 0/12

v' = 0 m/s.

Also substitute the value of v' into equation 5

v = 6+0

v = 6 m/s
