Multiple-Concept Example 6 presents a model for solving this problem. As far as vertical oscillations are concerned, a certain a

utomobile can be considered to be mounted on four identical springs, each having a spring constant of 1.21 x 105 N/m. Then, four identical passengers are seated in the car, and it is set into a vertical oscillation that has a period of 0.371 s. If the mass of the empty car is 1400 kg, determine the mass of each passenger. Assume that the mass of the car and its passengers is distributed evenly over the springs.

Answer:

71.865\ \text{kg}

Explanation:

Mass of car = 1400 kg

T = Time period = 0.371 s

k = Spring constant = 1.21\times 10^{5}\ \text{N/m}

Time period is given by

\dfrac{1}{T}=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}\\\Rightarrow m=4\dfrac{kT^2}{4\pi^2}\\\Rightarrow m=\dfrac{4\times 1.21\times 10^5\times (0.371)^2}{4\pi^2}\\\Rightarrow m=1687.46\ \text{kg}

The 4 in the numerator is because there are 4 springs

Mass of car with people is 1687.46 kg.

Mass of people

1687.46-1400=287.46\ \text{kg}

Mass of each person

\dfrac{287.46}{4}=71.865\ \text{kg}

Mass of each person is 71.865\ \text{kg}.

Answer:

The radius of the gold nucleus is 7.1x10⁻¹⁵m

Explanation:

The nearest distance is:

r=\frac{kze^{2} }{mpV^{2} } (eq. 1)

Where

z = atomic number of gold = 79

e = electron charge = 1.6x10⁻¹⁹C

k = electrostatic constant = 9x10⁹Nm²C²

energy of the particle = 32 MeV = 5.12x10⁻¹²J

At the potential energy is zero, all the energy will be kinetic energy:

E_{k} =\frac{1}{2} m V^{2}

Where

m = 4 mp = mass of proton

5.12x10^{-12} =\frac{1}{2} *4*m_{p}* V^{2} \\m_{p}* V^{2} = 2.56x10^{-12}

Replacing in equation 1

r=\frac{9x10^{9}*79*(1.6x10^{-19})^{2}   }{2.56x10^{-12} } =7.1x10^{-15} m

Daltons theory was identified using
Margaret [11]
<h2>Answer with Explanation </h2>

Dalton’s theory can be classified by the following hypotheses:

1) All material was formed of particles, unbreakable and strong construction segments.

2) All particles of a given component are indistinguishable in volume and characteristics

3) Compounds are determined by a mixture of two or more distinct kinds of atoms.

4) Chemical responses appeared in the rearrangement of the reacting atoms.

This theory was to explain all matter in terms of atoms and their characteristics, the law of conservation of volume and the law of constant composition.

What is the acceleration experiance by a car that takes 10s to reach 27m/s from rest
lina2011 [118]

Magnitude of acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change).

Change in speed  =  (27 - 0)  =  27 m/s
Time for the change = 10 s

Magnitude of acceleration =  (27 m/s) / (10 s)  =  2.7 m/s²  .
