Answer:

b. 0.45 meters

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Spring constant, k = 330 N/m

Force = 150 N

To find the extension of the spring;

Mathematically, the force exerted on a spring is given by the formula;

Force = spring constant * extension

Substituting into the formula, we have;

150 = 330 * extension

Extension, e = 150/330

Extension, e = 0.45 meters

A factory emits pollutants at a rate of 25 g/s. The factory is located between two mountain ranges resulting in an effective val

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

$1.25\ \mu\text{g/m}^3$

Explanation:

v = Velocity of the breeze = 4 m/s

w = Width of the valley = 5000 m

h = Height of the valley = 1000 m

Volumetric flow rate is given by

$\dot{V}=vwh\\\Rightarrow \dot{V}=4\times 5000\times 1000\\\Rightarrow \dot{V}=2\times10^{7}\ \text{m}^3/\text{s}$

$\dot{m}$ = Mass flow rate of pollutant = 25 g/s = $25\times 10^6\ \mu\text{g/s}$

Concentration is given by

$C=\dfrac{\dot{m}}{\dot{V}}\\\Rightarrow C=\dfrac{25\times 10^6}{2\times 10^7}\\\Rightarrow C=1.25\ \mu\text{g/m}^3$

The steady state concentration of pollutants in the valley, is $1.25\ \mu\text{g/m}^3$ .

How can energy be converted from one form to another?

Ket [755]

By heat or change in matter,
there can be different reactions that create heat (like exothermic or endothermic reactions)
or movement can give off energy too,
energy is basically just heat

A cyclotron designed to accelerate protons has a magnetic field of magnitude 0.15 T over a region of radius 7.4 m. The charge on

klio [65]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Magnetic field, B = 0.15 T

Charge on a proton, $q=1.60218\times 10^{-19}\ C$

Mass of a proton, $m=1.67262 \times 10^{-27}\ kg$

The cyclotron frequency is given by :

$f=\dfrac{qB}{2\pi m}$

$f=\dfrac{1.60218\times 10^{-19}\ C\times 0.15\ T}{2\pi \times 1.67262 \times 10^{-27}\ kg}$

f = 2286785.40 Hz

$\omega=14368296.44\ rad/s$

$\omega=1.43\times 10^7 rad/s$

Hence, this is the required solution.
