German physicist Werner Heisenberg related the uncertainty of an object's position ( Δ x ) to the uncertainty in its velocity (

Δ v ) Δ x ≥ h 4 π m Δ v where h is Planck's constant and m is the mass of the object. The mass of an electron is 9.11 × 10 − 31 kg. What is the uncertainty in the position of an electron moving at 2.00 × 10 6 m/s with an uncertainty of Δ v = 0.01 × 10 6 m/s ?

According to the information given, the Heisenberg uncertainty principle would be given by the relationship

\Delta x \Delta v \geq \frac{h}{4\pi m}

Here,

h = Planck's constant

\Delta v = Uncertainty in velocity of object

\Delta x = Uncertainty in position of object

m = Mass of object

Rearranging to find the position

\Delta x \geq \frac{h}{4\pi m\Delta v}

Replacing with our values we have,

\Delta x \geq \frac{6.625*10^{-34}m^2\cdot kg/s}{4\pi (9.1*10^{-31}kg)(0.01*10^6m/s)}

\Delta x \geq 5.79*10^{-9}m

Therefore the uncertainty in position of electron is 5.79*10^{-9}m

Consider a uniform horizontal wooden board that acts as a pedestrian bridge. The bridge has a mass of 300 kg and a length of 10
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

F = 2123.33N

Explanation:

In order to calculate the torque applied by the left support, you take into account that the system is at equilibrium. Then, the resultant of the implied torques are zero.

\Sigma \tau=0

Next, you calculate the resultant of the torques around the right support, by taking into account that the torques are generated by the center of mass of the wooden, the person and the left support. Furthermore, you take into account that torques in a clockwise direction are negative and in counterclockwise are positive.

Then, you obtain the following formula:

-\tau_l+\tau_p+\tau_{cm}=0          (1)

τl: torque produced by the left support

τp: torque produced by the person

τcm: torque produced by the center of mass of the wooden

The torque is given by:

\tau=Fd           (2)

F: force applied

d: distance to the pivot of the torque, in this case, distance to the right support.

You replace the equation (2) into the equation (1) and take into account that the force applied by the person and the center of mass of the wood are the their weight:

-Fd_1+W_pd_2+W_{cm}d_3=0\\\\d_1=6.0m\\\\d_2=2.0m\\\\d_3=3.0m\\\\W_p=(200kg)(9.8m/s^2)=1960N\\\\W_{cm}=(300kg)(9.8m/s^2)=2940N

Where d1, d2 and d3 are distance to the right support.

You solve the equation for F and replace the values of the other parameters:

F=\frac{W_pd_2+W_d_3}{d_1}=\frac{(1960N)(2.0m)+(2940N)(3.0m)}{6.0m}\\\\F=2123.33N

The force applied by the left support is 2123.33 N

How can we tell when forces are acting on an object (science)
iren [92.7K]

If an object's speed changes, or if it changes the direction it's moving in,
then there must be forces acting on it. There is no other way for any of
these things to happen.

Once in a while, there may be <em><u>a group</u></em> of forces (two or more) acting on
an object, and the group of forces may turn out to be "balanced".  When
that happens, the object's speed will remain constant, and ... if the speed
is not zero ... it will continue moving in a straight line.  In that case, it's not
possible to tell by looking at it whether there are any forces acting on it.
