The coefficient of linear expansion of ordinary glass is three times that of Pyrex glass. An ordinary glass rod and a Pyrex glas

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

b. 3 times

Explanation:

Lets take

Coefficient for ordinary glass = α₁

Coefficient for pyrex glass = α₂

Given that α₁ = 3 α₂

Initial length of both glasses are equal = L

Change in the temperature is also same .= ΔT

We know that change in the length given as

ΔL = L α ΔT

Therefore

$\dfrac{\Delta L_1}{\Delta L_2}=\dfrac{L\alpha_1\Delta T}{L\alpha_2\Delta T}$

$\dfrac{\Delta L_1}{\Delta L_2}=\dfrac{3\alpha_2}{\alpha_2}$

ΔL₁ = 3ΔL₂

Therefore change in the length of original glass is three time of pyrex glass.

b. 3 times

The electric field in a particular thundercloud is 3.8 x 105 N/C. What is the acceleration (in m/s2) of an electron in this fiel

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

6.68 x 10^16 m/s^2

Explanation:

Electric field, E = 3.8 x 10^5 N/C

charge of electron, q = 1.6 x 10^-19 C

mass of electron, m = 9.1 x 10^-31 kg

Let a be the acceleration of the electron.

The force due to electric field on electron is

F = q E

where q be the charge of electron and E be the electric field

F = 1.6 x 10^-19 x 3.8 x 10^5

F = 6.08 x 10^-14 N

According to Newton's second law

Force = mass x acceleration

6.08 x 10^-14 = 9.1 x 10^-31 x a

a = 6.68 x 10^16 m/s^2

Suppose that a teacher driving a 1972 LeMans zooms out of a darkened tunnel at 34.5 m/s. He is momentarily blinded by the sunshi

valkas [14]

Answer:

489.19m

Explanation:

To find the minimum distance you first calculate the time in which the teacher stops:

$v=v_o-at\\\\t=\frac{v_o-v}{a}=\frac{34.5m/s-0m/s}{2.5m/s^2}=13.8s$

however, the reaction of the teacher is 0.31s later, then you use

t=13.8-0.31s=13.49s

during this time the camper has traveled a distance of:

$x=vt=(15.1m/s)(13.49s)=203.69m$ (1)

Next you calculate the distance that teacher has traveled for 13.6s:

$x=x_o+v_ot+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\\x=0m+34.5m/s(13.49s)+\frac{1}{2}(2.5m/s^2)(13.49s)^2=692.88m$ (2)

The minimum distance between the driver and the camper will be the difference between (2) and (1):

$x_{min}=692.88m-203.69m=489.19m$
