A seller on the internet claims to have pieces of a wooden statue that are 2000 years old. You are asked to date the wood to see

whether the age is correct. The 20g sample you receive has an activity of 15 counts per second. For living wood. 20g would have an activity of 16 counts per second. Estimate the age of the wood and women’s on weather the sellers claims are true

The cpu might be covered by a(n) ________, which dissipates the heat generated by the chip.
FinnZ [79.3K]
I think he correct term to fill in the blank would be heat sink. The CPU might be covered by a heat sink, which dissipates the heat generated by the chip. A heat sink is any device or a substance that absorbs heat generated or from the heat reservoir. For a device, it would be one that has a fan or a peltier device in order to keep a system having a cool temperature. This is done to protect a system from any damage due to excess heat. This protect any device from overheating. A CPU surely have this device because it should be kept cool to protect the chips inside it.

An air-plane has an effective wing surface area of 17.0 m² that is generating the lift force. In level flight the air speed over
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Surface area A= 17m²

The speed at the top v" = 66m/s

Speed beneath is v' =40 m/s

The density of air p =1.29kg/m³

Weight of plane?

Assuming that,

the height difference between the top and bottom of the wind is negligible and we can ignore any change in gravitational potential energy of the fluid.

Using Bernoulli equation

P'+ ½pv'²+ pgh' = P'' + ½pv''² + pgh''

Where

P' is pressure at the bottom in N/m²

P" is pressure at the top in N/m²

v' is velocity at the bottom in m/s

v" is velocity at the top in m/s

Then, Bernoulli equation becomes

P'+ ½pv'² = P'' + ½pv''²

Rearranging

P' — P'' = ½pv"² —½pv'²

P'—P" = ½p ( v"² —v'²)

P'—P" = ½ × 1.29 × (66²-40²)

P'—P" = 1777.62 N/m²

Lift force can be found from

Pressure = force/Area

Force = ∆P ×A

Force = (P' —P")×A

Since we already have (P'—P")

Then, F=W = (P' —P")×A

W = 1777.62 × 17

W = 30,219.54 N

The weight of the plane is 30.22 KN

Car A (mass 1100 kg) is stopped at a traffic light when it is rear­ended by car B(mass 1400 kg). Both cars then slide with locke
viva [34]

Answer:

Part a)

v_a = 3.94 m/s

Part b)

v_b = 3.35 m/s

Part C)

v_b = 6.44 m/s

Part d)

Due to large magnitude of friction between road and the car the momentum conservation may not be valid here as momentum conservation is valid only when external force on the system is zero.

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that car A moves by distance 6.1 m after collision under the frictional force

so the deceleration due to friction is given as

a = -\frac{F_f}{m}

a = -\frac{\mu mg}{m}

a = - \mu g

now we will have

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2ad

0 - v_i^2 = 2(-\mu g)(6.1)

v_a = \sqrt{(2(0.13)(9.81)(6.1)}

v_a = 3.94 m/s

Part b)

Similarly for car B the distance of stop is given as 4.4 m

so we will have

v_b = \sqrt{2(0.13)(9.81)(4.4)}

v_b = 3.35 m/s

Part C)

By momentum conservation we will have

m_1v_{1i} = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}

1400 v_b = 1100(3.94) + 1400(3.35)

v_b = 6.44 m/s

Part d)

Due to large magnitude of friction between road and the car the momentum conservation may not be valid here as momentum conservation is valid only when external force on the system is zero.
