Answer:

Speed of gamma rays = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Frequency of gamma ray = 3 x 10¹⁹ Hz

Wavelength of gamma rays = 1 x 10⁻¹¹ meter

Find:

Speed of gamma rays

Computation:

Velocity = Frequency x wavelength

Speed of gamma rays = Frequency of gamma ray x Wavelength of gamma rays

Speed of gamma rays = [3 x 10¹⁹][1 x 10⁻¹¹]

Speed of gamma rays = 3 x [10¹⁹⁻¹¹]

Speed of gamma rays = 3 x [10⁸]

Speed of gamma rays = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Sammy feels an ocean breeze as he plays volleyball at the beach. Why do ocean winds or sea breezes blow toward shore during the

DedPeter [7]

The heat coming from the sun warms the land more quickly than the sea. As a result of these, the air near the land warm up and rises and the cooler air from the sea moves in to replace the risen air. The correct answer is option A

There will be heat transfer from a region of higher temperature to the region of lower temperature. But in the case of land and sea breeze, the transfer of heat are the result of convectional current in nature. Because the land is a better absorber of heat and also has a lower specific heat capacity compare to sea, during the day, the heat coming from the sun warms the land more quickly than the sea. As a result of these, the air near the land warm up and rises.

The cooler air from the sea moves in to replace the risen air.

Why do ocean winds or sea breezes blow toward shore during the day ? It is because air over the beach heats up, rises and is replaced by ocean air.

Therefore, option A is correct

A mass of 5 kg of saturated water vapor at 150 kPa is heated at constant pressure until the temperature reaches 200°C. Calculate

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

The work done by the steam is 213 kJ.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 5 kg

Pressure = 150 kPa

Temperature = 200°C

We need to calculate the specific volume

Using formula of work done

$W=Pm\DeltaV$

$W=Pm(\dfrac{RT_{1}}{P_{atm}}-\dfrac{RT_{2}}{P_{atm}}$

$W=\dfrac{PmR}{P_{atm}}(T_{2}-T_{1})$

Where,R = gas constant

T = temperature

P = pressure

$P_{atm}$ =Atmosphere pressure

m = mass

Put the value into the formula

$W=\dfrac{150\times10^{3}\times5\times287.05}{1.01\times10^{5}}\times(473-373)$

$W=213\ kJ$

Hence, The work done by the steam is 213 kJ.

2. Two toy cars are involved in a race. Car A has mass m while car B has mass 2m. a. The two cars have the same force applied to

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

a) The kinetic energy of the two cars is the same

the moment of car 2 is greater than the moment of car 1

b) the kinetic energy of car 1 is greater than that of car 2

the moment of the two cars is the same

Explanation:

a) to know the kinetic energy of each car, we must find the speed, use Newton's second law to find the acceleration

Car 1

F = m a

a = F / m

Let's use kinematics to find the velocity after x = 1 m

v² = v₀² + 2 a x

The initial speed is zero

v = √ (2 F/m x)

For the distance of x = 1 m

v₁ = √ (2 F / m)

Car 2

F = 2m a

a = F / 2m

v² = 2 a x

v = √ (F/m x)

For x = 1 m

v₂ = √(F / m)

Let's calculate the kinetic energy of each car

Car 1

K₁ = ½ m v₁²

K₁ = ½ m 2F / m

K₁ = F

Car 2

K₂ = ½ 2m v₂²

K₂ = ½ 2m F / m

K₂ = F

The kinetic energy of the two cars is the same

Let's calculate the moment

Car 1

P₁ = m v₁

P₁ = m √ (2F / m)

Car 2

P₂ = 2m v²

P₂ = 2m √(F / m)

We see that the moment of car 2 is greater than the moment of car 1

b) in this part the force is applied by t = 10 s

Acceleration is the same, let's find the speed

Car1

v = v₀ + a t

v = F / m t

v₁ = F / m 10

Car 2

v₂ = F / 2m 10

v₂ = F / m 5

Let's calculate the kinetic energy of each car

Car 1

K₁ = ½ m v₁²

K₁ = ½ m (F / m 10)²

K₁ = 50 F² / m

Car2

K₂ = ½ 2m v₂²

K₂ = m (F / m 5)²

K₂ = 25 F² / m

In this case we see that the kinetic energy of car 1 is greater than that of car 2

Let's calculate the moment

Car 1

P₁ = m v₁

P₁ = m F / m 10

P₁ = 10 F

Car 2

P₂ = 2m v₂

P₂ = 2m F / m 5

P₂ = 10 F

In this case the moment of the two cars is the same
