Answer:

Therefore, light travelling at 3.0x10^8 meters per second takes 500 seconds (8 minutes, 20 seconds) to reach the Earth, which is 1.5x10^11 meters away from the sun

A hollow cast-iron cylinder 4m long, 300mm outer diameter, and thickness of metal 50mm is subjected to a central load on the top
Sveta_85 [38]

Here, the calculated Magnitude of the load P is 2945.2 kN, the Longitudinal strain produced is 0.0005 and the decrease in length is 2 mm.

Given,

Length, L = 4 m

Outer diameter, D = 300mm, D= 0.3 m

Thickness, t = 50 mm, t = 0.05 m

Stress produced, σ = 75000 kN/m²

Young's modulus for cast iron, E = 1.5 x 10⁸ kN/m²

Calculating the diameter of the cylinder,

Diameter of cylinder, d = (D) – (2t) = 0.3 –( 2 × 0.05)

d= 0.2 m

(i) Magnitude of the load P:

Using the relation, σ =P/A

P = σ × A = 75000 × π /4 (D² – d² )

P= 75000 × π/4 (0.3² – 0.2²)

P= 75000 × π/4 (0.09 – 0.04)

P = 2945.2 kN

Hence, Magnitude of the load P is 2945.2 kN.

(ii) Longitudinal strain produced, e :

Using the relation, Strain, (e) = stress/E

e= 75000/(1.5 x 10⁸)= 0.0005

Hence, the Longitudinal strain produced is 0.0005.

(iii)Total decrease in length, dL:

The total decrease in length can be calculated using the strain as the ratio of change in length to the original length is known as Strain.

Strain = change in length/original length

e= dL/L

0.0005 = dL/4

dL = 0.0005 × 4m = 0.002m=2mm

Hence,the decrease in length is 2 mm.

what is the value of the constant for a second order reaction if the reactant concentration drops from .657 M to ,0981 M in 17 s
yaroslaw [1]

Answer : The value of the constant for a second order reaction is, 0.51M^{-1}s^{-1}

Explanation :

The expression used for second order kinetics is:

kt=\frac{1}{[A_t]}-\frac{1}{[A_o]}

where,

k = rate constant = ?

t = time = 17s

[A_t] = final concentration = 0.0981 M

[A_o] = initial concentration = 0.657 M

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

k\times 17s=\frac{1}{0.0981M}-\frac{1}{0.657M}

k=0.51M^{-1}s^{-1}

Therefore, the value of the constant for a second order reaction is, 0.51M^{-1}s^{-1}

A mass of 240 grams oscillates on a horizontal frictionless surface at a frequency of 2.5 Hz and with amplitude of 4.5 cm.
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

(a) The spring constant is 59.23 N/m

(b) The total energy involved in the motion is 0.06 J

Explanation:

Given;

mass, m = 240 g = 0.24 kg

frequency, f = 2.5 Hz

amplitude of the oscillation, A = 4.5 cm = 0.045 m

The  angular speed is calculated as;

ω = 2πf

ω = 2 x π x 2.5

ω = 15.71 rad/s

(a) The spring constant is calculated as;

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} } \\\\\omega ^2 = \frac{k}{m} \\\\k = m\omega ^2\\\\where;\\\\k \ is \ the \ spring \ constant\\\\k = (0.24) \times (15.71)^2\\\\k = 59.23 \ N/m

(b) The total energy involved in the motion;

E = ¹/₂kA²

E = (0.5) x (59.23) x (0.045)²

E = 0.06 J

A pie is cooked in an oven at 200 °C. The aluminium film that ckvered the pie can be touched soon after it is removed while the
GREYUIT [131]

Answer and Explanation:

The aluminum is more productive in the absorption and heat transfer to other particles. It instantly converts heat absorbed from the environment into the atmosphere when removed from the oven, enabling us to operate with it faster than the pie that takes much longer to convert heat to the environment.

So this is the reason for pie to be the dangerously hot
