A parachutist relies on air resistance (mainly on her parachute) to decrease her downward velocity. She and her parachute have a mass of 58.0 kg and air resistance exerts a total upward force of 670 N on her and her parachute. What is the combined weight of the parachutist and parachute? Calculate the net force on the parachutist. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the parachutist?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1. F = 569 N

2. F_net = 101N

3. a = 1.74m/s²

Explanation:

Weight is a force measurement.

F = m*a

F = 58.0kg*9.81m/s²

F = 568.98 N

F_net = 670N+(-569N)

F_net = 101N

a = F/m

a = 101N/58.0kg

a = 1.74m/s²

Answer 2

The combined weight of the parachutist and parachute is equal to 568.98 N and the net force due to air resistance exerts a total upward force of 101.02N on her and her parachute, then the magnitude of the acceleration of the parachutist is 1.74 m/s².

What is Newton's second law?

Newton's second law states that the resultant force acting on a body is proportional to the rate of change of momentum of that body.

If a  parachutist relies on air resistance to decrease her downward velocity.

The mass of the parachutist and her parachute is 58 kg

The air resistance exerts a total upward force of 670 N

The combined weight of the parachutist and parachute, W = mg

W = 58 × 9.81

W = 568.98 N

The net force on the parachutist = 670 - 568.98 = 101.02 N

The acceleration of the Parachutist = Net force/mass

a = F/m

a = 101.02/58

a  = 1.74 m/s²

Thus, the magnitude of the acceleration of the parachutist would be 1.74m/s².

UV radiaGon having a wavelength of 120 nm falls on gold metal, to which electrons are bound by 4.82 eV. What is the maximum kineGc energy of the ejected photoelectrons

Answers

Answer:

K.E = 5.53 eV = 8.85 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Explanation:

First we calculate the energy of photon:

E = hc/λ

where,

E = Energy of Photon = ?

h = Plank's Constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

λ = wavelength = 120 nm = 1.2 x 10⁻⁷ m

Therefore,

E = (6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(1.2 x 10⁻⁷ m)

E = (16.565 x 10⁻¹⁹ J)(1 eV/1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J)

E = 10.35 eV

Now, from Einstein's Photoelectric equation we know that:

Energy of Photon = Work Function + K.E of Electron

10.35 eV = 4.82 eV + K.E

K.E = 10.35 eV - 4.82 eV

K.E = 5.53 eV = 8.85 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

The maximum kinetic energy of the ejected photoelectrons will be "8.85 × 10⁻¹⁹ J".

Kinetic energy

According to the question,

Speed of light, c = 3 × 10⁸ m/s

Wavelength, λ = 120 nm or,

                        = 1.2 × 10⁻⁷ m

Plank's Constant, h = 6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ J.s

Now,

The energy of photon will be:

→ E = [tex]\frac{hc}{\lambda}[/tex]

By substituting the values,

     = [tex]\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 20^8}{1.2\times 10^{-7}}[/tex]

     = [tex]\frac{16.565\times 10^{-19}}{\frac{1 \ eV}{1.6\times 10^{-19}} }[/tex]

     = 10.35 eV

By using Einstein's Photoelectric equation,  

Energy of Photon = Work function + K.E

                   10.35 = 4.82 + K.E

                       K.E = 10.35 - 4.82

                             = 5.53 eV or,

                             = 8.85 × 10⁻¹⁹ J

Thus the response above is correct.

A car moving at 36 m/s passes a stationary police car whose siren has a frequency of 500 Hz. What is the change in the frequency (in Hz) heard by an observer in the moving car as he passes the police car? (The speed of sound in air is 343 m/s.)

Answers

Answer:

Change in the frequency (in Hz) = 104.96 Hz

Explanation:

Given:

Speed of sound in air (v) = 343 m/s

Speed of car (v1) 36 m/s

Frequency(f) = 500 Hz

Find:

Change in the frequency (in Hz)

Computation:

Frequency hear by the observer(before)(f1) = [f(v+v1)] / v

Frequency hear by the observer(f1) = [500(343+36)] / 343

Frequency hear by the observer(f1) = 552.48 Hz

Frequency hear by the observer(after)(f2) = [f(v-v1)] / v

Frequency hear by the observer(f2) = [500(343-36)] / 343

Frequency hear by the observer(f2) = 447.52 Hz

Change in the frequency (in Hz) = f1 - f2

Change in the frequency (in Hz) = 552.48 Hz - 447.52 Hz

Change in the frequency (in Hz) = 104.96 Hz

Ultraviolet light having a wavelength of 97 nm strikes a metallic surface. Electrons leave the surface with speeds up to 3.48 × 105 m/s. What is the work function, in eV of the metal?

Answers

Answer:

12.45eV

Explanation:

Before calculating the work function, we must know the formula for calculating the kinetic energy of an electron. The kinetic energy of an electron is the taken as the difference between incident photon energy and work function of a metal.

Mathematically, KE =  hf - Ф where;

h is the Planck constant

f is the frequency = c/λ

c is the speed of light

λ is the wavelength

Ф is the work function

The formula will become KE =  hc/λ - Ф. Making the work function the subject of the formula we have;

Ф = hc/λ - KE

Ф = hc/λ - 1/2mv²

Given parameters

c = 3*10⁸m/s

λ = 97*10⁻⁹m

velocity of the electron v = 3.48*10⁵m/s

h = 6.62607015 × 10⁻³⁴

m is the mass of the electron = 9.10938356 × 10⁻³¹kg

Substituting the given parameters into the formula Ф = hc/λ - 1/2mv²

Ф =  6.63 × 10⁻³⁴*3*10⁸/97*10⁻⁹ -  1/2*9.11*10⁻³¹(3.48*10⁵)²

Ф = 0.205*10⁻¹⁷ - 4.555*10⁻³¹*12.1104*10¹⁰

Ф = 0.205*10⁻¹⁷ - 55.163*10⁻²¹

Ф = 0.205*10⁻¹⁷ - 0.0055.163*10⁻¹⁷

Ф = 0.1995*10⁻¹⁷Joules

Since 1eV = 1.60218*10⁻¹⁹J

x = 0.1995*10⁻¹⁷Joules

cross multiply

x = 0.1995*10⁻¹⁷/1.60218*10⁻¹⁹

x = 0.1245*10²

x = 12.45eV

Hence the work function of the metal in eV is 12.45eV

       T = 5.5  1 10⁻³

       T = 5.5 10⁻³ s

A resistance heater having 20.7 kW power is used to heat a room having 16 m X 16.5 m X 12.3 m size from 13.5 to 21 oC at sea level. The room is sealed once the heater is turned on. Calculate the amount of time needed for this heating to occur in min. (Write your answer in 3 significant digits. Assume constant specific heats at room temperature.)

Answers

Answer:

t = 23.6 min

Explanation:

First we need to find the mass of air in the room:

m = ρV

where,

m = mass of air in the room = ?

ρ = density of air at room temperature = 1.2041 kg/m³

V = Volume of room = 16 m x 16.5 m x 12.3 m = 3247.2 m³

Therefore,

m = (1.2041 kg/m³)(3247.2 m³)

m = 3909.95 kg

Now, we find the amount of energy consumed to heat the room:

E = m C ΔT

where,

E = Energy consumed = ?

C = Specific Heat of air at room temperature = 1 KJ/kg.⁰C

ΔT = Change in temperature = 21 °C - 13.5 °C = 7.5 °C

Therefore,

E = (3909.95 kg)(1 KJ/kg.°C)(7.5 °C)

E = 29324.62 KJ

Now, the time period can be calculated as:

P = E/t

t = E/P

where,

t = Time needed = ?

P = Power of heater = 20.7 KW

Therefore,

t = 29324.62 KJ/20.7 KW

t = (1416.65 s)(1 min/60 s)

t = 23.6 min

Two objects, one of mass m and the other of mass 2m, are dropped from the top of a building. When they hit the ground:_______.
a) the heavier one will have four times the kinetic energy of the lighter one.
b) the heavier one will have twice the kinetic energy of the lighter one.
c) the heavier one will have times the kinetic energy of the lighter one.
d) both of them will have the same kinetic energy.

Answers

Answer:

b) the heavier one will have twice the kinetic energy of the lighter one.

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of object with mass, m

K.E₁ = ¹/₂mv²

where;

m is mass of the object

v is the velocity of the object

Since, the two objects are falling under same acceleration due to gravity, their velocity will be increasing at the same rate

The kinetic energy of object with mass, 2m

K.E₂ = ¹/₂(2m)v²

K.E₂ = 2(¹/₂mv²)

BUT K.E₁ = ¹/₂mv²

K.E₂ = 2(K.E₁)

Therefore, the heavier one will have twice the kinetic energy of the lighter one.

b) the heavier one will have twice the kinetic energy of the lighter one.

Which of the following frequencies could NOT be present as a standing wave in a 2m long organ pipe open at both ends? The fundamental frequency is 85 Hz.

Answers

Answer:

382Hz

Explanation:

The question lacks the required option. Find the complete question in the attachment.

The long organ pipe open at both ends is called an open pipe. The fundamental frequency for an open pipe is expressed as F0 = V/2L

Harmonics are integral multiples of the fundamental frequency. For open pipes its harmonics are 2fo, 3fo, 4fo, 5fo...

Given fundamental frequency f0 to be 85 Hz, the following frequencies will be present as a standing wave;

First overtone f1 = 2fo = 2(85) = 170Hz

Second overtone f2 = 3fo = 3(85) = 255Hz

Third overtone = 4fo = 4(85) = 340Hz

Based on the option it can be seen that the only frequency that is not present as a standing wave is 382Hz

The  magnification is mathematically represented as

      [tex]m = - \frac{f_o }{f_e }[/tex]
