A meter stick is found to balance at the 49.7-cm mark when placed on a fulcrum. When a 65.5-gram mass is attached at the 21.0-cm

mark, the fulcrum must be moved to the 39.2-cm mark for balance. What is the mass of the meter stick

Answer:

113.53 g

Explanation:

Please see attached photo for explanation.

In the attached photo, M is the mass of the meter stick.

The value of M can be obtained as shown below:

Clockwise moment = M × 10.5

Anticlockwise moment = 65.5 × 18.2

Anticlockwise moment = Clockwise moment

65.5 × 18.2 = M × 10.5

1192.1 = M × 10.5

Divide both side by 10.5

M = 1192.1 / 10.5

M = 113.53 g

Thus, the mass of the meter stick is 113.53 g

Kipish [7]

Answer:

Probability of tunneling is 10^{- 1.17\times 10^{32}}

Solution:

As per the question:

Velocity of the tennis ball, v = 120 mph = 54 m/s

Mass of the tennis ball, m = 100 g = 0.1 kg

Thickness of the tennis ball, t = 2.0 mm = 2.0\times 10^{- 3}\ m

Max velocity of the tennis ball, v_{m} = 200\ mph = 89 m/s

Now,

The maximum kinetic energy of the tennis ball is given by:

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv_{m}^{2} = \frac{1}{2}\times 0.1\times 89^{2} = 396.05\ J

Kinetic energy of the tennis ball, KE' = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} = 0.5\times 0.1\times 54^{2} = 154.8\ m/s

Now, the distance the ball can penetrate to is given by:

\eta = \frac{\bar{h}}{\sqrt{2m(KE - KE')}}

\bar{h} = \frac{h}{2\pi} = \frac{6.626\times 10^{- 34}}{2\pi} = 1.0545\times 10^{- 34}\ Js

Thus

\eta = \frac{1.0545\times 10^{- 34}}{\sqrt{2\times 0.1(396.05 - 154.8)}}

\eta = \frac{1.0545\times 10^{- 34}}{\sqrt{2\times 0.1(396.05 - 154.8)}}

\eta = 1.52\times 10^{-35}\ m

Now,

We can calculate the tunneling probability as:

P(t) = e^{\frac{- 2t}{\eta}}

P(t) = e^{\frac{- 2\times 2.0\times 10^{- 3}}{1.52\times 10^{-35}}} = e^{-2.63\times 10^{32}}

P(t) = e^{-2.63\times 10^{32}}

Taking log on both the sides:

logP(t) = -2.63\times 10^{32} loge

P(t) = 10^{- 1.17\times 10^{32}}

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

The datapoint 9.0 ppm is outlier at the 90% confidence level.

Explanation:

The old data has following values

mean=10.5 mm

standard deviation 0.2 mm

Now the mean of new values is calculated as following

mean=\frac{10+10.4+10.2+10.8+10.1+10.5+10.1}{7}\\mean=10.3 ppm

So the value as 9.0 ppm can be considered easily as outlier in  this regard.
