Answer:

glass if for a good view, but for absorbing heat concrete and brick is the best

Explanation:

wood is not a good idea bc it can cause fires from too much heat and it absorbs less heat but all of that depends on how good the material your using

A ball is falling at terminal velocity. Terminal velocity occurs when the ball is in equilibrium and the forces are balanced. Wh

Greeley [361]

Answer:

A free body diagram with 2 forces: the first pointing downward labeled F Subscript g Baseline 20 N and the second pointing upward labeled F Subscript air Baseline 20 N.

Explanation:

This is because at terminal velocity, the ball stops accelerating and the net force on the ball is zero. For the net force to be zero, equal and opposite forces must act on the ball, so that their resultant force is zero. That is F₁ + F₂ = 0 ⇒ F₁ = -F₂

Since F₁ = 20 N, then F₂ = -F₁ = -20 N

So, if F₁ points upwards since it is positive, then F₂ points downwards since it is negative.

So, a free body diagram with 2 forces: the first pointing downward labeled F Subscript g Baseline 20 N and the second pointing upward labeled F Subscript air Baseline 20 N best describes the ball falling at terminal velocity.

An ancient club is found that contains 100 g of pure carbon and has an activity of 6.5 decays per second. Determine its age assu

never [62]

Answer:

The age of living tree is 11104 years.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of pure carbon = 100 g

Activity of this carbon is = 6.5 decays per second = 6.5 x60 decays/min =390 decays/m

We need to calculate the decay rate

$R=\dfrac{-dN}{dt}=\lambda N=\dfrac{0.693}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}N$ ....(I)

Where, N = number of radio active atoms

$t_{\frac{1}{2}}$ =half life

We need to calculate the number of radio active atoms

For $N_{12_{c}}$

$N_{12_{c}}=\dfrac{N_{A}}{M}$

Where, $N_{A}$ =Avogadro number

$N_{12_{c}}=\dfrac{6.02\times10^{23}}{12}$

$N_{12_{c}}=5.02\times10^{22}\ nuclie/g$

For $N_{c_{14}}$

$N_{c_{14}}=1.30\times10^{-12}N_{12_{c}}$

$N_{c_{14}}=1.30\times10^{-12}\times5.02\times10^{22}$

$N_{c_{14}}=6.526\times10^{10}\ nuclei/g$

Put the value in the equation (I)

$R=\dfrac{0.693\times6.526\times10^{10}\times60}{5700\times3.16\times10^{7}}$

$R=15.0650\ decay/min g$

100 g carbon will decay with rate

$R=100\times15.0650=1507\ decay/min$

We need to calculate the total half lives

$(\dfrac{1}{2})^{n}=\dfrac{390}{1507}$

$2^n=\dfrac{1507}{390}$

$2^n=3.86$

$n ln 2=ln 3.86$

$n=\dfrac{ln 3.86}{ln 2}$

$n =1.948$

We need to calculate the age of living tree

Using formula of age

$t=n\times t_{\frac{1}{2}}$

$t=1.948\times5700$

$t=11103.6 =11104\ years$

Hence, The age of living tree is 11104 years.

Ice skaters often end their performances with spin turns, where they spin very fast about their center of mass with their arms f

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

Her angular speed (in rev/s) when her arms and one leg open outward is 1.4 rev/s

Explanation:

given information:

moment inertia of arm and leg when in, I₁ = 0.9 kgm²

moment inertia of arm and leg when extended, I₂ = 2.9 kgm²

angular speed when in, ω₁ = 4.5 rev/s

so, her angular speed (in rev/s) when her arms and one leg open outward is

L₁ = L₂

I₁ω₁ = I₂ω₂

ω₂ = I₁ω₁/I₂

= 0.9 x 4.5/2,9

= 1.4 rev/s

What is the magnetic field strength required to make a proton with a speed of 5.0 x 10^(5) m/s follow a circular path of radius

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

Magnetic field strength required for this is 0.25 T

Explanation:

As we know that the proton moves in circular path in uniform magnetic field

so the radius of the path of the circle is given as

$R = \frac{mv}{qB}$

here we know that

$q = 1.6 \times 10^{-19}C$

$m = 1.6 \times 10^{-27} kg$

$R = 0.0200 m$

$v = 5 \times 10^5 m/s$

now we have

$B = \frac{1.6 \times 10^{-27} (5 \times 10^5)}{(1.6 \times 10^{-19})(0.02)}$

so we have

$B = 0.25 T$
