A group of humans traveling in space discover a habitable planet. They settle down there and start populating it. Their populati

on grows at a steady rate and doubles every 10 years. Thousand years after the first group of humans arrived, the planet is filled to half its carrying capacity. How many more years are there to reach the carrying capacity of the planet? Assume there are no resource crisis and they grow at the same rate. A) 500 years
B) 1000 years
C) 5 years
D) 1 year
E) 10 years

Answer:

10 years

Explanation:

As you can understand from the question it is given that the planet is already filled to half of its capacity. Also the population doubles in 10 years. To fill up the planet completely the population needs to double only once. To do that only 10 years are required.

As it is mentioned there are no other factors affecting the growth rate, in 10years the planet will be filled to its carrying capacity.

A 2.30-kg cylindrical rod of length 2.00 m is suspended from a horizontal bar so it is free to swing about that end. a solid sph
Marina86 [1]

Solution:


initial sphere mvr = final sphere mvr + Iω 
where I = mL²/3 = 2.3g * (2m)² / 3 = 3.07 kg·m² 
0.25kg * (12.5 + 9.5)m/s * (4/5)2m = 3.07 kg·m² * ω 
where: ω = 2.87 rad/s 

So for the rod, initial E = KE = ½Iω² = ½ * 3.07kg·m² * (2.87rad/s)² 
E = 12.64 J becomes PE = mgh, so 
12.64 J = 2.3 kg * 9.8m/s² * h 
h = 0.29 m 

h = L(1 - cosΘ) → where here L is the distance to the CM 
0.03m = 1m(1 - cosΘ) = 1m - 1m*cosΘ 
Θ = arccos((1-0.29)/1) = 44.77 º

The heat capacity of 0.125Kg of water is measured to be 523j/k at a room temperature.Hence, calculate the heat capacity of water
Naily [24]

Answer:

A. 4148 J/K/Kg

B. 4148 J/K/L

Explanation:

A. Heat capacity per unit mass is known as the specific heat capacity, c.

C = Heat capacity/mass(kg)

C = (523 J/K) / 0.125 Kg = 4148 J/K/Kg

B. Volume of water = mass/density

Density of water = 1 Kg/L

Volume of water = 0.125 Kg/ 1Kg/L

Volume of water = 0.125 L

Heat capacity per unit volume = (523 J/K) / 0.125 L

Heat capacity per unit volume = 4148 J/K/L

Determine the kinetic of 600 kg roller coaster car that is moving with the speed of 35.2 m/s.
antiseptic1488 [7]
The answer is 10,560 Joules or 1.1*10^4


Explanation:

Step 1: Calculate
The equation for Kinetic Energy is

Kinetic energy=.5 times Mass times Velocity²
KE=.5*m*v²

so we plug in our numbers
KE=.5*600*35.2²

This works out to be 10,560 Joules or 1.1*10^4

An organ pipe of length 3.0 m has one end closed. The longest and next-longest possible wavelengths for standing waves inside th
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

The longest wavelength for closed at one end and open at the other is

y / 4      where y is the wavelength - that is node - antinode

The next possible wavelength is 3 y / 4 -    node - antinode - node -antinode

y / 4 = 3 m     y = 12 meters    the longest wavelength

3 y / 4 = 3 m      y = 4 meters   1 / 3 times as long
