Answer:

h = 4 in

Explanation:

GIVEN DATA:

volume of tin $= 16 \pi$

we know that

volume of cylinder is $v = \pi r^2 h$

so,

$16 \pi = \pi r^2 h$

$16 = r^2 h$

$r = \sqrt{\frac{16}{h}}$

construct formula for surface area

$S = 2\pi r^2 + 2\pi rh$

$S = \frac{2v}{h} + 2 \sqrt{v \pi h}$

minimize the function wrt h

$S' = \frac{2v}{h^2} + \sqrt{\frac{v \pi}{h} = 0$

solving for h we have

$h = [\frac{4 v}{\pi}]^{1/3}$

we kow $v = 16 \pi$ so

h = 4 in

An empty rubber balloon has a mass of 12.5 g. The balloon is filled with helium at a density of 0.181 kg/m3. At this density the

Answer: 1.14 N

Explanation :

As any body submerged in a fluid, it receives an upward force equal to the weight of the fluid removed by the body, which can be expressed as follows:

Fb = δair . Vb . g = 1.29 kg/m3 . 4/3 π (0.294)3 m3. 9.8 m/s2

Fb = 1.34 N

In the downward direction, we have 2 external forces acting upon the balloon: gravity and the tension in the line, which sum must be equal to the buoyant force, as the balloon is at rest.

We can get the gravity force as follows:

Fg = (mb +mhe) g

The mass of helium can be calculated as the product of the density of the helium times the volume of the balloon (assumed to be a perfect sphere), as follows:

MHe = δHe . 4/3 π (0.294)3 m3 = 0.019 kg

Fg = (0.012 kg + 0.019 kg) . 9.8 m/s2 = 0.2 N

Equating both sides of Newton´s 2nd Law in the vertical direction:

T + Fg = Fb

T = Fb – Fg = 1.34 N – 0.2 N = 1.14 N

A monochromatic light beam is incident on a barium target that has a work function of 2.50 \mathrm{eV} . If a potential differen

leva [86]

The wavelength of the light beam required to turn back all the ejected electrons is 497 nm which is option (b).

Work function is a material property defined as the minimum amount of energy required to infinitely remove electrons from the surface of a particular solid.
The potential difference required to support all emitted electrons is called the stopping potential which is given by $v_0=\frac{K.E_m_a_x}{e}$ .....(1)
where $v_0$ is the stopping potential and e is the charge of the electron given by $1.6\times10^-^1^9$ .

It is given that work function (Ф) of monochromatic light is 2.50 eV.

Einstein photoelectric equation is given by:

$K.E_m_a_x=E-\phi$ ....(2)

where K.E(max) is the maximum kinetic energy.

Substituting (1) into (2) , we get

$ev_0=E-\phi\\1.6\times10^{-19} \times1=E-2.50\\E=1.6\times10^{-19}+2.50\\E=2.50eV$

As we know that $E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}$ ....(3)

where Speed of light, $c = 3\times10^8 m/s$ and Planck's constant , $h = 6.63\times 10^-^1^9Js = 4.14\times 10^-^1^5 eVs$

From equation (3) , we get

$\lambda=\frac{hc}{E} \\\\\lambda=\frac{ 4.14\times 10^-^1^5 \times 3 \times10^8}{2.50} \\\\\lambda=\frac{1240\times10^-^9}{2.50} \\\\\lambda=496.8\times10^-^9\\\\\lambda=497nm$

En el País Vasco los deportistas rurales levantan enormes piedras hasta su hombro. En un concurso , Jose levanta una piedra de 2

Mama L [17]

Answer:

Txomin lifted the stone with greater mass. (Txomin levantó la roca con mayor fuerza).

Explanation:

The sportsman that lifts the stone with a greater mass needs a higher force (El deportista que levanta la piedra con mayor masa necesita una mayor fuerza):

José

$F = (200\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)$

$F = 1961.4\,N$

Txomin

$F = (220\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)$

$F = 2157.54\,N$

Txomin lifted the stone with greater mass. (Txomin levantó la roca con mayor fuerza).
