4 0

Answer:

5,000J

Explanation:

Work = Force x Distance

Distance back and forth is canceled out, so either the answer is + or -

5.0m + 5.0m = 10.0m

500N x 10.0m = 5,000J

A neutron at rest decays (breaks up) to a proton and an electron. Energy is released in the decay and appears as kinetic energy
SashulF [63]

Answer:

5.444\times 10^{-4}

Explanation:

The momentum of the neutron before and after the decay  is the same since there's no external force.

P_{sys}=const\\\\P=mv\\\\K=0.5mv^2

#The neutron is initially at rest, so after the decay:

P_A+P_B=0\\\\P_A=-P_B

#After decay, the proton has +ve direction  with a velocity v_Awhile the electron moves in a negative direction with a velocity v_B

Therefore:

P_A=m_Av_A, P_B=m_Bv_B\\\\\therefore m_Av_A,=m_Bv_B

Let the energy released during the decay be Q:

Q=K_{tot}=K_A+K_B\\\\Q=K_A+0.5m_Bv_B^2\\\\Q=K_A+0.5m_B(\frac{m_A}{m_B})^2v_A^2\\\\\ But \ K_A=0.5m_Av_A^2\\\\\therefore Q=K_A+\frac{m_A}{m_B}K_A=K_A(1+\frac{m_A}{m_B})\\\\=Q=\frac{m_A+m_B}{m_B}K_A\\\\m_A=1836m_B\\\\\frac{K_A}{Q}=\frac{m_B}{1836m_B+m_B}=\frac{1}{1837}\\\\\frac{K_A}{Q}=5.444\times10^{-4}

Hence,Kp/Ktot is 5.444x10^(-4)

At 20∘C20 ∘ C, the hole in an aluminum ring is 2.500 cm in diameter. You need to slip this ring over a steel shaft that has a ro
Feliz [49]

Answer:

238.75⁰C .

Explanation:

coefficient of linear thermal expansion of aluminum and steel is  23 x 10⁻⁶ K⁻¹ and 12 x 10⁻⁶ K⁻¹ respectively .

Rise in temperature be Δ t .

Formula for linear expansion due to heat is as follows

l = l₀ ( 1 + α x Δt )

l is expanded length , l₀ is initial length , α is coefficient of linear expansion and  Δt is increase in temperature .

For aluminum

l = 2.5 ( 1 +  23 x 10⁻⁶ Δt )

For steel

l = 2.506 ( 1 + 12 x 10⁻⁶ Δt )

Given ,

2.5 ( 1 +  23 x 10⁻⁶ Δt ) = 2.506 ( 1 + 12 x 10⁻⁶ Δt )

1 +  23 x 10⁻⁶ Δt = 1.0024 ( 1 + 12 x 10⁻⁶ Δt )

1 +  23 x 10⁻⁶ Δt = 1.0024   + 12.0288 x 10⁻⁶ Δt

10.9712 x 10⁻⁶ Δt = .0024

Δt = 218.75

Initial temperature = 20⁰C

final temperature = 218.75 + 20 = 238.75⁰C .

The Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco has a main span of length 1.28 km, one of the longest in the world. Imagine that a steel
Valentin [98]

Answer:

361.46 N

Explanation:

\alpha = Coefficient of thermal expansion = 11\times 10^{-6}\ /^{\circ}C

Y = Young's modulus for steel = 20\times 10^{10}\ Pa

A = Area = 3.1\times 10^{-6}\ m^2

L_0 = Original length = 1.28 km

\Delta T = Change in temperature = 45-(-10)

Length contraction is given by

\Delta L=\alpha L_0\Delta T

Also,

\Delta L=\dfrac{L_0T}{YA}

\alpha L_0\Delta T=\dfrac{L_0T}{YA}\\\Rightarrow T=\alpha \Delta TYA\\\Rightarrow T=11\times 10^{-6}\times (43-(-10))\times 20\times 10^{10} \times 3.1\times 10^{-6}\\\Rightarrow T=361.46\ N

The tension in the wire is 361.46 N

1. A student is biking to school. She travels 0.7 km north, then realizes something has fallen out of her bag.
Snezhnost [94]

Explanation:

(a) Displacement of an object is the shortest path covered by it.

In this problem, a student is biking to school. She travels 0.7 km north, then realizes something has fallen out of her bag.  She travels 0.3 km south to retrieve her item. She then travels 0.4 mi north to arrive at school.

0.4 miles = 0.64 km

displacement = 0.7-0.3+0.64 = 1.04 km

(b) Average velocity = total displacement/total time

t = 15 min = 0.25 hour

v=\dfrac{1.04\ km}{0.25\ h}\\\\v=4.16\ km/h

Hence, this is the required solution.
