Answer:

5 candela

Explanation:

Let the candle brightness be B

Let the distance be d

The candle brightness is inversely proportional to the distance

B α 1/d

B = k/d

If my candle has a brightness of 15 candela from a distance of 2 meter, then;

15 = k/2

k = 30

To get the brightness when the distance is 6m;

B = k/d

B = 30/6

B = 5 candela

Hence the brightness will be 5 candela

A loop of wire is carrying current of 2 A . The radius of the loop is 0.4 m. What is the magnetic field at a distance 0.09 m alo

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

$B=2.91\ \mu T$

Explanation:

Given that,

The current in the loop, I = 2 A

The radius of the loop, r = 0.4 m

We need to find the magnetic field at a distance 0.09 m along the axis and above the center of the loop. The formula for the magnetic field at some distance is given as follows :

$B=\dfrac{\mu_o}{4\pi }\dfrac{2\pi r^2 I}{(r^2+d^2)^{3/2}}$

Put all the values,

$B=10^{-7}\times \dfrac{2\pi \times 0.4^2 \times 2}{(0.4^2+0.09^2)^{3/2}}\\\\=2.91\times 10^{-6}\ T\\\\or\\\\B=2.91\ \mu T$

So, the required magnetic field is equal to $2.91\ \mu T$ .

Consider an experiment in which slow neutrons of momentum ¯hk are scattered by a diatomic molecule; suppose that the molecule is

madreJ [45]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

When we have an object in periodic motion, the amplitude will be the maximum displacement from equilibrium. Take for example, when there’s a back and forth movement of a pendulum through its equilibrium point (straight down), then swings to a highest distance away from the center. This distance will be represented as the amplitude, A. The full range of the pendulum has a magnitude of 2A.

position = amplitude x sine function(angular frequency x time + phase difference)

x = A sin(ωt + ϕ)

x = displacement (m)

A = amplitude (m)

ω = angular frequency (radians/s)

t = time (s)

ϕ = phase shift (radians)

An artillery shell is fired with an initial velocity of 300 m/s at 52.0° above the horizontal. To clear an avalanche, it explode

sasho [114]

The x- and y-coordinates are 9142.57 m and -304.425 m

<u>Explanation:</u>

As the motion of the shell is in a plane (two dimensional space) and the acceleration is that due to gravity which is vertically downward, we resolve initial velocity of the shell $v_{0}$ in horizontal and vertical directions. If the initial velocity of the shell is making angle with the horizontal, the horizontal component of initial velocity will be

$v_{x}=v_{0} \times \cos \theta$

As the acceleration of the shell is vertical having no horizontal component, the shell may be considered to move horizontally with constant velocity of $v_{x}$ and hence the horizontal distance covered (or the x coordinate of the shell with point of projection as origin) is given by

$v_{x}=v_{o} \times \cos \theta=300 \times \cos \left(52^{\circ}\right)=184.69 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$

$v_{y}=v_{o} \times \sin \theta==300 \times \sin \left(52^{\circ}\right)=236.4 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$

For motion with constant acceleration, we know

$s=s_{0}+v_{0} t+\left(\frac{(1)}{2}\right) a t^{2}$

Along the horizontal, x-axis, we might write this as

$x=x_{0}+v_{x 0} t+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) a_{x} t^{2}$

Measuring distances relative to the firing point means

$x_{0}=0$

we know that,

$a_{x}=0$

or,

$v_{x}=v_{x 0}=\text { constant }$

By applying the values, we get,

$x=0+(184.69 \times 49.5)+\left(\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) \times 0 \times(49.5)^{2}\right)=9142.57 \mathrm{m}$

The acceleration of gravity is vertically downward and is $g=-9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$ , hence the vertical distance covered (or y coordinate of the shell) is given by the second equation of motion

$y=y_{0}+v_{y 0} t+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) a_{y} t^{2}$

we know, $y_{0}=0$ and $a_{y}=-9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$ , so,

$y=0+(236.4 \times 49.5)+\left(\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) \times(-9.8) \times(49.5)^{2}\right)$

y = 11701.8 - 4.9(2450.25)= 11701.8 - 12006.225 = - 304.425 m
