Answer:
E = 1.45 x 10⁹ J = 1.45 GJ
Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of energy:
Potential Energy Lost by Satellite = Kinetic Energy + Internal Energy
[tex]mgh = \frac{1}{2} mv^2 + E\\\\E = mgh - \frac{1}{2} mv^2[/tex]
where,
E = Internal Energy = ?
m = mass = 400 kg
g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²
h = height = 500 km = 500000 m
v = speed on ground = 1.6 km/s = 1600 m/s
Therefore,
[tex]E = (400\ kg)(9.81\ m/s^2)(500000\ m)-\frac{1}{2} (400\ kg)(1600\ m/s)^2\\E = 1.962\ x\ 10^9\ J - 0.512\ x\ 10^9\ J[/tex]
E = 1.45 x 10⁹ J = 1.45 GJ
A 70 kg human body typically contains 140 g of potassium. Potassium has a chemical atomic mass of 39.1 u and has three naturally occurring isotopes. One of those isotopes, 40K (potassium), is radioactive with a half-life of 1.3 billion years and a natural abundance of 0.012 %. Each 40K (potassium) decay deposits, on average, 1.0 MeV of energy into the body.
What yearly dose in Gy does the typical person receive from the decay of 40K (potassium) in the body? Express your answer using two significant figures.
Answer:
Gy = 3.14x10⁻⁴ Gy
Explanation:
To get the dose in Gy we need to use the following expression:
Gy = E / m (1)
Where:
Gy: dose
E: energy absorbed per atom
m: mass of the human body.
We don't have the energy per atom, but we can calculate that by following the next procedure.
First, let's determine the number of atoms of potassium in our body. For that we need to determine the moles in the 140 g of potassium, with the molecular mass and then, use the avogadro's number:
moles = m/MM
moles = 140 / 39.1 = 3.58 moles
N° atoms = 3.58 * 6.02x10²³ atoms = 2.16x10²⁴ atoms of K.
The abundance of the ⁴⁰K is 0.012% so the atoms of this isotope would be:
N = 2.16x10²⁴ * (0.012/100) = 2.59x10²⁰ atoms of ⁴⁰K.
With this number, and the half life rate, we can determine the number of decay atoms in a year (λ) using the following expression:
λ = ln2 / t(1/2)
λ = ln2 / 1.3x10⁹ = 5.33x10⁻¹⁰ year⁻¹
This number, multiplied by the number of atoms:
R = 5.33x10⁻¹⁰ * 2.59x10²⁰ = 1.38x10¹¹ atoms/year
Now, each atom of K gives an average energy of 1 MeV, so with the atoms we have:
E = 1.38x10¹¹ * 1x10⁶ eV = 1.38x10¹⁷ eV
This value can be expressed in Joules so:
E = 1.38x10¹⁷ eV * (1 J / 6.24x10¹⁸ eV) = 0.022 J
Finally, we can use (1) to get the dose in Gy:
Gy = 0.022 / 70
Gy = 3.14x10⁻⁴ GyHope this helps

A child is holding a wagon from rolling straight back down in a driveway that inclined at 20 degree horizontal. if the wagon weigh 150n with what force must the child pull on the handle if the handle is parallel to the incline?
Answer:
F = 51.3°
Explanation:
The component of weight parallel to the inclined plane must be responsible for the rolling back motion of the car. Hence, the force required to be applied by the child must also be equal to that component of weight:
[tex]F = Parallel\ Component\ of\ Weight\ of\ Wagon= WSin\theta\\[/tex]
where,
W = Weight of Wagon = 150 N
θ = Angle of Inclinition = 20°
Therefore,

Suppose that an electron and a positron collide head-on. Both have kinetic energy of 1.20 MeV and rest energy of 0.511 MeV. They produce two photons, which by conservation of momentum must have equal energy and move in opposite directions. What is the energy Ephoton of one of these photons
Answer:
E = 1.711 MeV
Explanation:
From the law of the conservation of energy:
[tex]K.E_{e}+K.E_p + E_{e}+E_{p} = 2 E[/tex]
where,
[tex]K.E_e=K.Ep=[/tex] the kinetic energy of positron and electron = 1.2 MeV
[tex]E_e=E_p =[/tex] Rest energy of the electron and the positron = 0.511 MeV
E = Energy of Photon = ?
Therefore,
[tex]1.2\ MeV + 1.2\ MeV + 0.511\ MeV + 0.511\ MeV = 2E\\\\E = \frac{3.422\ MeV}{2}\\\\[/tex]

A 10- kg ball starting from rest rolls down a 5 m tall smooth hill from one person to another person who is standing at the bottom of the hill with a big spring whose constant is 100 N/m. How far does the spring compress in order to stop the ball
Answer: 3.13 m
Explanation:
Given
mas of the ball is m=10 kg
The ball rolls down a vertical distance of 5 m
Spring constant of spring is [tex]k=100\ N/m[/tex]
Here, the potential energy of the ball converted into kinetic energy which in turn converts into elastic potential energy
[tex]\Rightarrow mgh=\frac{1}{2}kx^2\quad [\text{x=compression in the spring}]\\\\\Rightarrow 10\times 9.8\times 5=\frac{1}{2}\cdot 100\cdot x^2\\\Rightarrow x=\sqrt{9.8}\\\Rightarrow x=3.13\ m[/tex]
Thus, the spring compresses by 3.13 m.
he electric field is dependent on the distance between the plates. false: The voltage of a connected charged capacitor decreases when the plate area is increased. false: The voltage of a disconnected charged capacitor increases when the plates are brought closer together.
Answer:
False.
Explanation:
The voltage of a disconnected charged capacitor decreases when the plates are brought closer together because the capacitance is inversely proportional to the area. If the area between plates decreases, its capacitance increases and vice versa. There is direct relationship between voltage of a disconnected charged capacitor and plates. If the distance between plates decreases, the voltage of a disconnected charged capacitor is also decreases while on the other hand, if the distance between plates increases, the voltage of a disconnected charged capacitor is also increases.

a football player starts from rest and speeds up to a final velocity of 12 m/s. the speeding up takes a total of 6 seconds. what is the football players acceleration
Answer:
2 m/s²
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s
Final velocity (v) = 12 m/s
Time (t) = 6 s
Acceleration (a) =?
The acceleration of the player can be obtained as follow:
v = u + at
12 = 0 + (a × 6)
12 = 6a
Divide both side by 6
a = 12 / 6
a = 2 m/s²
Thus, the acceleration of the player is 2 m/s²
An observer views four identical objects that are traveling at speeds close to
the speed of light. Can their lengths be used to rank the objects according to
their speeds?
Answer:
D
Explanation:
yes. The shortest object is traveling the fastest.
No,their lengths be used to rank the objects according to their speeds. Because the length of the object is depended on the frame of reference of the observer. Option A is correct.
What is frame of reference?A frame of reference is a mathematical and physical coordinate system whose origin, direction, and scale are given by a collection of reference points.
Because the length of each item is determined by the observer's frame of reference, If an observer is stationary yet traveling at near light speed, he will feel length contraction.
Otherwise, the length of the items should not alter for everyday pace.A spectator sees four identical objects flying at almost the speed of light.
No,their lengths be used to rank the objects according to their speeds. Because the length of the object is depended on the frame of reference of the observer.
Hence,option A is correct.

The lens labelled (B) has radius 16.5cm on the curved side. Using the shape of the lens to assign the sign of the radius, calculate the focal length of the lens. Give your answer with the correct positive or negative sign using the usual convention for lenses.
Answer:
convex f = 33 cm
concave f = -33 cm
Explanation:
In geometric optics the focal length of a lens is given by
[tex]\frac{1}{f} = ( n-1) \ (\frac{1}{R_2} - \frac{1}{R_1} )[/tex]
where n is the refractive index of the medium, R₁ and R₂ are the focal lengths on each side of the lens.
In this case one of the sides is flat so its focal length is infinite, if the lens is convex the focal length is positive, convergent lens and if it is concave the focal length is negative, divergent lens.
[tex]\frac{1}{f} = (n-1) \ \frac{1}{R}[/tex]
the refractive index of the glass is n = 1.5
let's calculate
1 / f = (1.5 -1) 1 / 16.5
1 / f = 0.03030
f = 33 cm
convex f = 33 cm
concave f = -33 cm

Which of the following is NOT a reason why humans sleep?
Sleep helps to restore and repair brain tissue.
Sleep restores and rebuilds memories.
Sleep provides a psychic safety valve to discharge unacceptable feelings.
During sleep, growth hormone is released, especially in children.
Answer and Explanation:
The answer is the second answer choice. This is because we humans can rebuild or build memories during the day, it doesn't have to happen via sleep.
The first answer choice IS a reason because you aren't working your brain as hard, so your brain has time to heal. A mouse study suggests that sleep helps restore the brain by flushing out toxins that build up during waking hours.
The third answer choice IS a reason because of the idea of Wish Fulfillment: Sigmund Freud suggested that dreams provide a psychic safety valve to discharge unacceptable feelings. The dream's manifest (apparent) content may also have symbolic meanings (latent content) that signify our unacceptable feelings.
The forth answer choice IS a reason because of the idea of Cognitive Development: Some researchers argue that we dream as a part of brain maturation and cognitive development.

You are studying a population of flowering plants for several years. When you present your research findings you make the statement that, "Increased allocation of resources to reproduction relative to growth diminished future fecundity." Which of the following graph descriptions could accurately present your data?
a) With seeds in the current year on the y-axis and seeds in the previous year on the x-axis, you would see a line that increased from left to right
b) With survivorship on the y-axis and number of seeds produced on the x-axis, you would see a line that decreased left to right.
c) With leaf area on the y-axis and number of seeds produced on the x-axis, you would see a line that increased left to right
d) With survivorship on the y-axis and number of seeds produced on the x-axis, you would see a line that increased left to right.
e) With seeds in the current year on the y-axis and seeds in the previous year on the x-axis, you would see a line that decreased from left to right
Answer:
Option A
Explanation:
The graph for this problem must depict the following ""Increased allocation of resources to reproduction relative to growth diminished future fecundity."
Hence, the survivor ship must be on the Y axis and the resources on the X axis.
Here the resources include the number of seeds produced.
hence, the higher is the number of seeds (resource), the lower is the survivorship (future fecundity)
Hence, option A is correct
The tension in a pulley belt is 31 N when stationary. Calculate power in watts transmitted when the belt is on the point of slipping on the smaller wheel. the wheel is 379 mm diameter and the coefficient of friction is 0.3. The angle of lap is 1610. The wheel speed is 1,547 rev/min.
Answer:
P = 756.84 Watts
Explanation:
As the tension is stationary or innitial, T₀ = 31 N, the mean would be:
T₁ + T₂ / 2 = T₀ (1)
T₁ + T₂ = 2 * 31 = 62 N
Now, with the following expression we can determine the linear speed:
V = πWD (2)
W: angular speed of the wheel (rev/s)
D: diameter of the wheel (in meters)
W = 1547 rev/min * (1 min/60 s) = 25.78 rev/s
V = π * 25.78 * 0.379 = 30.695 m/s
We also know that:
T₁ / T₂ = exp (μθ)
T₁ = T₂ exp(μθ) (3)
We already have those values so replacing:
T₁ = T₂ exp(0.3 * 161 * π/180)
T₁ = 2.32T₂ (4)
We can now replace (4) in (1) like this:
T₁ + T₂ = 62 N
2.32T₂ + T₂ = 62
3.32T₂ = 62
T₂ = 18.67 N
Which means that T₁:
T₁ = 2.32(18.67)
T₁ = 43.33 N
Finally, the power can be determined using the following expression:
P = (T₁ - T₂)V (5) Replacing we have:
P = (43.33 - 18.67)*30.695
P = 756.84 WattsHope this helps

10 A particle in circular motion performs 30 oscillations in 6
seconds. Its angular velocity is?
Explanation:
Let omega = angular velocity (in rad/s). Then
omega = (# of oscillations)/(6 s)
= (30 osc)/(6 s) = 5 osc/s
We need to convert this to rad/s:
omega = (5 osc/s)(2π rad/osc)
= 10π rad/s
= 31.4 rad/s
A spinning disc with a mass of 2.5kg and a radius of 0.80m is rotating with an angular velocity of 1.5 rad/s. A ball of clay with unknown mass is dropped onto the disk and sticks to the very edge causing the angular velocity of the disk to slow to 1.13 rad/s. What is the mass of the ball of clay
Answer:
M = 1.90 Kg
Explanation:
Given data: mass = 2.5 Kg
radius R = 0.8 m
angular velocity ω = 1.5 rad/s
Angular momentum L =0.5×Iω^2
Where, I is the moment of inertia of the spinning disc.
I = 0.5MR^2
I = 0.5×2.5×0.8^2
I = 0.8 Kg/m^2
Then L = 0.5×0.8×1.5^2 = 0.8×2.25 = 0.9 Kg-m^2/sec
Let unknown mass be M
New mass of disc = (2.5+M) Kg, R = 0.8 m
New I = 0.5(2.5+M)(0.8)^2
Since, angular momentum is conserved
Angular momentum before = angular momentum after
0.5×0.5(2.5+M)(0.8)^2×(1.13)^2 = 0.9
Solving for M we get
0.204304(2.5+M)=0.9
M = 1.90 Kg
The load across a 12 V battery consists of a series combination of three resistors 34 Ω, 42Ω, and 30Ω. What is the total resistance of the load? Answer in units of Ω. What is the current in the circuit? Answer in units of A.
Answer:
The total resistance is 106 Ω and the current in the circuit is 0.11 A.
Explanation:
Given that,
Voltage of the battery, V = 12 V
Resistors 34 Ω, 42Ω, and 30Ω are connected in series.
The total resistance is given by :}
R = 34 + 42 +30
= 106Ω
Let I is the total current in the circuit. Using ohm's law to find it such that,
[tex]I=\dfrac{V}{R}\\\\I=\dfrac{12}{106}\\\\I=0.11\ A[/tex]
Hence, the total resistance is 106 Ω and the current in the circuit is 0.11 A.

In any given wave, when the frequency of the wave doubles (f = 2f), which of the following other changes would also take place?
A The wavelength would double (λ = 2λ).
B The velocity would double (v = 2v).
C The wavelength would be half (λ = λ/2).
D The velocity would be half (v = v/2).
Answer:
The correct answer is -
B. The velocity would double (v = 2v).
C. The wavelength would be half (λ = λ/2).
Explanation:
A wave has a speed or velocity that is related to the wavelength of the wave and the frequency of the wave and this relationship can be represented by the following equation-
Wave velocity V = Wavelength (λ) * Frequency (f)
Frequency (f) = Velocity (V) / Wavelength(λ).
The frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional and frequency and velocity are directly proportional to each other.
So, if f = 2f then,
putting value in the formula,
2f = 2v/λ, which means, f = 2v and f = λ/2
when the frequency is doubled, the wavelength will be halved and velocity will be doubled.
A physics student mounts two thin lenses along a single optical axis (the lenses are at right angles to the line connecting them, and they appear concentric when viewed from either end). The lenses are identical, each with a positive (converging) focal length of 14.8 cm. They are separated by a distance of 39.4 cm. Lens 1 is to the left of Lens 2.
Required:
a. What is the final image's distance (in cm) from Lens 2?
b. Where is the final image located?
c. What is the overall magnification of the lens pair, considered as a single optical instrument?
Answer:
A) q₂ = 75.98 cm, B) q₂' = 115.38 cm, C)
Explanation:
A) This is an exercise in geometric optics, as the two lenses are separated by a greater distance than their focal lengths from each lens, they must be worked as independent lenses.
Lens 1. More to the left
let's use the constructor equation
[tex]\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{p} + \frac{1}{q}[/tex]
where f is the focal length, p and q are the distance to the object and the image, respectively,
We must assume a distance to the object to perform the calculation, suppose that the object is 50 cm from lens 1 that is further to the left of the system.
[tex]\frac{1}{q_1} = \frac{1}{f} - \frac{1}{p}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{q_1} = \frac{1}{14.8} - \frac{1}{50}[/tex]
1 / q₁ = 0.04756
q₁ = 21.0227 cm
this image is the object for the second lens that has f₂ = 14.8 cm
the distance must be measured from the second lens
p₂ = 39.4 -q₁
p₂ = 39.4 -21.0227
p₂ = 18.38 cm
let's use the constructor equation
1 / q₂ = 1 / f - 1 / p2
[tex]\frac{1}{q_2} = \frac{1}{14.8} - \frac{1}{18.38}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{q_2}[/tex] = 0.01316
q₂ = 75.98 cm
measured from the second lens
B) the position of the final image with respect to the first lens is
q₂’= q₂ + 39.4
q₂'= 75.98 +39.4
q₂' = 115.38 cm
C) the magnification of a lens is
m = - q / p
in this case the image measured from lens 2 is q2 = 75.98 cm
the distance to the object from the first lens is p1 = 50cm
m = - 75.98 / 50
m = -1.5 X
the negative sign indicates that the image is inverted
3) A 30 kg child slides freely across a "Slip and Slide" on LEVEL GROUND. While the child slides, the force applied to keep them sliding is 0 N. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.02. What is the acceleration experienced by the child?
Answer:
a = 0.1962 m/s^2
Explanation:
The magnitude of kinetic friction exerted is given by
[tex]F_k=\mu_kN[/tex]
Where, μ_k= coefficient of kinetic friction= 0.02 and N = reaction force = mg
Where m= mass = 30 Kg and, g is acceleration due to gravity =9.81 m/s^2
F_k=0.02×30×9.81 =5.886 N
Now, since, there is no applied force this kinetic friction force will cause acceleration of the child
⇒ ma = F_k
here, a is the acceleration
⇒30a = 5.886
⇒ a = 0.1962 m/s^2

The first law of thermodynamics (which states that energy is conserved) does not specify the direction in which thermodynamic processes in nature can spontaneously occur.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
a. True
Explanation:
The law of conservation of Energy states that energy cannot be destroyed but can only be converted or transformed from one form to another. Therefore, the sum of the initial kinetic energy and potential energy is equal to the sum of the final kinetic energy and potential energy.
Mathematically, it is given by the formula;
Ki + Ui = Kf + Uf .......equation 1
Where;
Ki and Kf are the initial and final kinetic energy respectively.
Ui and Uf are the initial and final potential energy respectively.
The First Law of Thermodynamics is another way to describe the Law of Conservation of Energy. Typically, the First Law of Thermodynamics states that the change of internal energy of a system is equal to the sum of external work and heat spent on the system.
Mathematically, the First Law of Thermodynamics is given by the formula;
ΔU = Q − W
Where;
ΔU represents the change in internal energy of a system.
Q represents the net heat transfer in and out of the system.
W represents the sum of work (net work) done on or by the system.
Hence, the direction in which any thermodynamic process in nature can spontaneously occur isn't stated by the First Law of Thermodynamics.

Answer:
f = 4.67 cm
Explanation:
Here, we can use the thin lens formula, as follows:
[tex]\frac{1}{f}= \frac{1}{p}+ \frac{1}{q}\\\\[/tex]
where,
f = focal length of lens = ?
p = distance of object from lens = 12.4 cm
q = distance of image from lens = 7.5 cm
Therefore,
[tex]\frac{1}{f} =\frac{1}{12.4\ cm} +\frac{1}{7.5\ cm}\\\\\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{4.67\ cm}[/tex]
f = 4.67 cm
