The air pressure inside a car tire is
Valentin [98]

Answer:

0.137m²

Explanation:

Pressure = Force/Area

Given

Force = 41,500N

Pressure = 3.00atm

since 1atm = 101325.00 N/m²

3atm = 3(101325.00)

3atm = 303,975N/m²

Pressure = 303,975N/m²

Get the area

Area = Force/Pressure

Area = 41500/303,975

Area = 0.137m²'

Hence the surface area of the  inside of the tire is 0.137m²

Two ice skaters, Paula and Ricardo, initially at rest, push off from each other. Ricardo weighs more than Paula.
sveta [45]

Answer:

the two ice skater have the same momentum but the are in different directions.

Paula will have a greater speed than Ricardo after the push-off.

Explanation:

Given that:

Two ice skaters, Paula and Ricardo, initially at rest, push off from each other. Ricardo weighs more than Paula.

A. Which skater, if either, has the greater momentum after the push-off? Explain.

The law of conservation of can be applied here in order to determine the skater that possess a greater momentum after the push -off

The law of conservation of momentum states that the total momentum of two  or more objects acting upon one another will not change, provided there are no external forces acting on them.

So if two objects in motion collide, their total momentum before the collision will be the same as the total momentum after the collision.

Momentum is the product of mass and velocity.

SO, from the information given:

Let represent the mass of Paula with m_{Pa} and its initial velocity with u_{Pa}

Let represent the mass of Ricardo with m_{Ri} and its initial velocity with u_{Ri}

At rest ;

their velocities will be zero, i.e

u_{Pa} = u_{Ri} = 0

The initial momentum for this process can be represented as :

m_{Pa}u_{Pa} +  m_{Ri}u_{Ri} = 0

after push off from each other then their final velocity will be v_{Pa} and v_{Ri}

The we can say their final momentum is:

m_{Pa}v_{Pa} +   m_{Ri}v_{Ri} = 0

Using the law of conservation of momentum as states earlier.

Initial momentum = final momentum = 0

m_{Pa}u_{Pa} +  m_{Ri}u_{Ri} =  m_{Pa}v_{Pa} +   m_{Ri}v_{Ri}

Since the initial velocities are stating at rest then ; u = 0

m_{Pa}(0) + m_{Pa}(0) = m_{Pa}v_{Pa} +   m_{Ri}v_{Ri}

m_{Pa}v_{Pa} +   m_{Ri}v_{Ri}  = 0

m_{Pa}v_{Pa} = - m_{Ri}v_{Ri}

Hence, we can conclude that the two ice skater have the same momentum but the are in different directions.

 B. Which skater, if either, has the greater speed after the push-off? Explain.

Given that Ricardo weighs more than Paula

So m_{Ri} > m_{Pa} ;

Then \mathsf{\dfrac{{m_{Ri}}}{m_{Pa} }= 1}

The magnitude of their momentum which is a product of mass and velocity can now be expressed as:

m_{Pa}v_{Pa} =  m_{Ri}v_{Ri}

The ratio is

\dfrac{v_{Pa}}{v_{Ri}} =\dfrac{m_{Ri}}{m_{Pa}} = 1

v_{Pa} >v_{Ri}

Therefore, Paula will have a greater speed than Ricardo after the push-off.

The eye is actually a multiple-lens system, but we can approximate it with a single-lens system for most of our purposes. When t
hram777 [196]

Explanation:

Given that,

The optical power of the equivalent single lens is 45.4 diopters.

(a) The relationship between the focal length and the focal length is given by:

f=\dfrac{1}{P}

f=\dfrac{1}{45.4}

f = 0.022 m

or

f = 2.2 cm

(b) We need to find how far in front of the retina is this "equivalent lens" located. It is given by using lens formula as :

\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{f}

Here, u = infinity

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{2.2}

v = 2.2 cm

So, at 2.2 cm in front of the retina is this "equivalent lens" located.

Hence, this is the required solution.

When thorium (90 protons) ejects a beta particle, the resulting nucleus has
Sav [38]

Answer:

none of the above

Explanation:

The actual answer is '91 protons'. In fact, the beta decay of the thorium-234 is the following:

{}_{90}Th \rightarrow {}_{-1}e+{}_{91}Pa

where inside the nucleus of Thorium (90 protons), a neutron turns into an electron (the beta particle) + a proton. Therefore, the resulting nucleus (which is Protoactinium) has a total of 90+1 = 91 protons.

So, the correct answer would be '91 protons'.
