Some runners train with parachutes that trail behind them to provide a large drag force. These parachutes are designed to have a

large drag coefficient. One model expands to a square 1.8 mm on a side, with a drag coefficient of 1.4. A runner completes a 240 mm run at 6.0 m/s with this chute trailing behind.

Answer:

by the drag force, 2.4004512 × 10⁻⁵ J is added to the air.

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

drag coefficient of Cd = 1.4

speed v = 6.0 m/s

One model expands to a square 1.8 mm on a side

Area A = 1.8 × 1.8 = 3.24 mm² = 3.24 × 10⁻⁶ m²

distance travelled s = 240 mm = 0.24 m

we know that; density of air e = 1.225 kg/m³

Now,

Dragging force F $_D$ = ( Cd × e × v² × A ) / 2

thermal energy = F $_D$ × s

so

thermal energy = ( 1.4 × 1.225 × (6)² × (3.24 × 10⁻⁶) × 0.24 ) / 2

thermal energy = ( 4.8009024 × 10⁻⁵ ) / 2

thermal energy = 2.4004512 × 10⁻⁵ J

Therefore, by the drag force, 2.4004512 × 10⁻⁵ J is added to the air.

A block of mass 200g is oscillating on the end of a horizontal spring of spring constant 100 N/m and natural length 12 cm. When

malfutka [58]

In order to determine the acceleration of the block, use the following formula:

$F=ma$

Moreover, remind that for an object attached to a spring the magnitude of the force acting over a mass is given by:

$F=kx$

Then, you have:

$ma=kx$

by solving for a, you obtain:

$a=\frac{kx}{m}$

In this case, you have:

k: spring constant = 100N/m

m: mass of the block = 200g = 0.2kg

x: distance related to the equilibrium position = 14cm - 12cm = 2cm = 0.02m

Replace the previous values of the parameters into the expression for a:

$a=\frac{(\frac{100N}{m})(0.02m)}{0.2\operatorname{kg}}=10\frac{m}{s^2}$

Hence, the acceleration of the block is 10 m/s^2

What is the energy per photon absorbed during the transition from n = 2 to n = 3 in the hydrogen atom?

adelina 88 [10]

Answer : The energy of one photon of hydrogen atom is, $3.03\times 10^{-19}J$

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the wavelength of hydrogen atom.

Using Rydberg's Equation:

$\frac{1}{\lambda}=R_H\left(\frac{1}{n_i^2}-\frac{1}{n_f^2} \right )$

Where,

$\lambda$ = Wavelength of radiation

$R_H$ = Rydberg's Constant = 10973731.6 m⁻¹

$n_f$ = Higher energy level = 3

$n_i$ = Lower energy level = 2

Putting the values, in above equation, we get:

$\frac{1}{\lambda}=(10973731.6)\left(\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{3^2} \right )$

$\lambda=6.56\times 10^{-7}m$

Now we have to calculate the energy.

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}$

where,

h = Planck's constant = $6.626\times 10^{-34}Js$

c = speed of light = $3\times 10^8m/s$

$\lambda$ = wavelength = $6.56\times 10^{-7}m$

Putting the values, in this formula, we get:

$E=\frac{(6.626\times 10^{-34}Js)\times (3\times 10^8m/s)}{6.56\times 10^{-7}m}$

$E=3.03\times 10^{-19}J$

Therefore, the energy of one photon of hydrogen atom is, $3.03\times 10^{-19}J$

Dos cargas puntuales están fijas en el eje x: q1 = 6.0µC está en el origen, O, con x1 = 0.0 cm, y q2 = –3.0 µC está situada en e

erik [133]

Answer:

E_total = 1.30 10¹⁰ C / m²

Explanation:

The intensity of the electric field is

E = k q / r²

on a positive charge proof

The total electric field at the midpoint is

as q₁= 6 10⁻⁶ C the field is outgoing to the right

for charge q₂ = -3 10⁻⁶ C, the field is directed to the right, therefore

E_total = E₁ + E₂

E_total = k q₁ / r₁² + k q₂ / r₂²

r₁ = r₂ = r = 4 10⁻² m

E_total = k/r² (q₁ + q₂)

we calculate

E_total = 9 10⁹ / (4 10⁻²)² (6.0 10⁻⁶ +3.0 10⁻⁶)

E_total = 1.30 10¹⁰ C / m²

<u>Question 6:</u>

The density of gold is 19.3 g/cm³

The density of silver is 10.5 g/cm³

The density of the substance in Crown A;

Density = mass ÷ volume = $\frac{1930}{100}$ = 19.3 g/cm³

Since the density of gold, given, is 19.3 g/cm³ and the density of the substance in Crown A has a density of 19.3 g/cm³ , then that substance must be gold.

The density of the substance in Crown B;

Density = mass ÷ volume = 1930 ÷ 184 = 10.48913043 g/cm³ ≈ 10.5 g/cm³ (answer rounded up to one decimal place)

Since the density of the substance in Crown B is approximately equal to 10.5 g/cm³ , then that substance is Silver.

The density of substance in Crown C;

Density = mass ÷ volume = 1930g ÷ 150cm³ = 12.86666667 ≈ 12.9 cm³ (answer rounded up to one decimal place)

<h3><u>The density of the mixture:</u></h3><h3 />

For 2 cm³ of the mixture, its mass equal 19.3 g + 10.5 g = 29.8 g

∴ for 1 cm³ of the mixture, its mass equal to $\frac{29.8}{2}$ = 14.9 g

Hence the density of the mixture = 14.9 g/cm³ and is not equal to the density of the substance in Crown C.

* Crown C is not made up of a mixture of gold and silver.

<u>Question 7:</u>

<u />

An empty masuring cylinder has a mass of 500 g.

Water is poured into measuring cylinder until the liquid level is at the 100 cm³ mark.

The total mass is now 850 g

The mass of water that occupied the 100 cm³ space of the container = total mass - mass of the empty container = 850 g - 500 g = 350 g

Density of the liquid (water) poured into the container = mass ÷ volume = 350 g ÷ 100 cm³ = 3.5g/cm³

<u>Question 8:</u>

<u />

A tank filled with water has a volume of 0.02 m³

(a) 1 liter = 0.001 m³

How many liters? = 0.02 m³ ?

Cross multiplying gives:

$\frac{0.02 * 1}{0.001}$ = 20 liters

(b) 1 m³ = 1,000,000 cm³

0.02 m³ = how many cm³ ?

Cross-multiplying gives;

$\frac{0.02 * 1,000,000}{1}$ = 20,000 cm³

(c) 1 cm³ = 1 ml

∴ 0.02 m³ of the water = 20,000 cm³ = 20,000 ml

<u>Question 9:</u>

<u />

Caliper (a) measurement = 3.2 cm

Caliper (b) measurement = 3 cm

<u>Question 10:</u>

<u />

A stone is gently and completely immersed in a liquid of density 1.0 g/cm³
in a displacement can
The mass of liquid which overflow is 20 g

The mass of the liquid which overflow = mass of the stone = 20 g

1 gram of the liquid occupies 1 cm³ of space.

20 g of the liquid will occupy; $\frac{20 * 1}{1}$ = 20 cm³

(a) Since the volume of the water displaced is equal to the volume of the stone.

∴ The volume of the stone = 20 cm³

(b) Mass = density × volume

Density of the stone = 5.0 g/cm³

Volume of the stone = 20 cm³

Mass of the stone = 5 g/cm³ × 20 cm³ = 100 g
