The area the radius vector will sweep is 0.889A

According to Kepler's second law, the radius vector <em>sweeps</em> out equal areas in equal times.

Let A = area and t = time period,

According to Kepler's law, A/t = constant

So, A₁/t₁ = A₂/t₂ where A₁ = area the radius vector sweeps at <em>slowest</em> orbital speed = A, t₁ = time period at <em>slowest </em>orbital speed = 45 days, A₂ = area the radius vector sweeps at<em> fastest</em> orbital speed, t₂ = time period at<em> fastest </em>orbital speed = 40 days.

Making A₂ subject of the formula, we have

A₂ = A₁t₂/t₁

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

A₂ = A₁t₂/t₁

A₂ = A × 40 days/45 days

A₂ = A × 40/45

A₂ = A × 8/9

A₂ = A × 0.889

A₂ = 0.889A

So, the area the radius vector will sweep is 0.889A

What is the voltage across a semiconductor bar if the current through it is 0.17 A? The electron concentration in the bar is 2.7

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

The voltage across a semiconductor bar is 0.068 V.

Explanation:

Given that,

Current = 0.17 A

Electron concentration $n= 2.7\times10^{18}\ cm^{-3}$

Electron mobility $\mu=1000 cm^2/Vs$

Length = 0.1 mm

Area = 500 μm²

We need to calculate the resistivity

Using formula of resistivity

$\sigma=n\times q\times \mu$

$\rho=\dfrac{1}{\sigma}$

Put the value into the formula

$\rho=\dfrac{1}{2.7\times10^{18}\times10^{6}\times1.6\times10^{-19}\times1000\times10^{-4}}$

$\rho=2\ \mu \Omega m$

We need to calculate the resistance

Using formula of resistance

$R=\dfrac{\rho l}{A}$

$R=\dfrac{2\times10^{-6}\times0.1\times10^{-3}}{500\times(10^{-6})^2}$

$R=0.4\ \Omega$

We need to calculate the voltage

Using formula of voltage

$V= IR$

Put the value into the formula

$V=0.17\times0.4$

$V=0.068\ V$

Hence, The voltage across a semiconductor bar is 0.068 V.

What must happen to the temperature of a material for thermal expansion to occur.

Aloiza [94]

In most cases the temperature must increase for thermal expansion to occur. Most substances expand as temperature increases because the atoms or molecules vibrate faster as temperature increases and experience greater separation.

A 0.750 kg block is attached to a spring with spring constant 13.0 N/m . While the block is sitting at rest, a student hits it w

trapecia [35]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to energy conservation. From this conservation we will find the magnitude of the amplitude. Later for the second part, we will need to find the period, from which it will be possible to obtain the speed of the body.

A) Conservation of Energy,

$KE = PE$

$\frac{1}{2} mv ^2 = \frac{1}{2} k A^2$

Here,

m = Mass

v = Velocity

k = Spring constant

A = Amplitude

Rearranging to find the Amplitude we have,

$A = \sqrt{\frac{mv^2}{k}}$

Replacing,

$A = \sqrt{\frac{(0.750)(31*10^{-2})^2}{13}}$

$A = 0.0744m$

(B) For this part we will begin by applying the concept of Period, this in order to find the speed defined in the mass-spring systems.

The Period is defined as

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}$

Replacing,

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{0.750}{13}}$

$T= 1.509s$

Now the velocity is described as,

$v = \frac{2\pi}{T} * \sqrt{A^2-x^2}$

$v = \frac{2\pi}{T} * \sqrt{A^2-0.75A^2}$

We have all the values, then replacing,

$v = \frac{2\pi}{1.509}\sqrt{(0.0744)^2-(0.750(0.0744))^2}$

$v = 0.2049m/s$
