An idea to explore the nearest Earth-sized planet in a habitable zone to our Sun is to attach a small sensor array to a 4 m by 4 m solar sail and shine a 100 GW laser on the solar sail for 10 minutes. This will get the spaceship up to speed after which it will coast the rest of the way at the speed attained after the 10 minutes of acceleration. Assume the sensor array and solar sail has a mass of 3 grams. The nearest Earth-sized planet in a habitable zone orbits the Alpha Centauri system at 4.3 Lightyears. 1 GW = 1*109 W. 1 Light year = 4*1016 m. Assume a perfectly reflecting solar sail and assume all 100 GW of power are intercepted by the solar sail.
a. What is the pressure on the Solar Sail from the laser?
b. What is the force on the Solar Sail from the laser?
c. What speed will the spaceship attain after 10 minutes assuming it started from rest and assuming a constant acceleration?
d. How long will it take the spaceship to reach Alpha Centauri in years?

Answers

Answer 1

Solution :

Given data:

Area of the solar sail, A = 16 [tex]$m^2$[/tex]

Mass (array + sail), m = [tex]$3 \times 10^{-3}$[/tex] kg

Power, P = 100 GW

               = [tex]$10^{11}$[/tex] W

Time, t = 10 min

           = 10 x  60 s

Distance, D = [tex]$4.3 \times 4 \times 10^{16}$[/tex] m

Kinetic energy, [tex]$KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2=P\times t$[/tex]

[tex]$v=\sqrt{\frac{2Pt}{m}}$[/tex]

[tex]$v=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 10^{11}\times 600}{3 \times 10^{-3}}}$[/tex]

  [tex]$=2 \times 10^8$[/tex] m/s

So, the acceleration is [tex]$a=\frac{v}{t}$[/tex]

[tex]$a=\frac{2 \times 10^8}{6 \times 10^2} \ m/s^2$[/tex]

 [tex]$=333333.33 \ m/s^2$[/tex]

Therefore, force,

[tex]$F = ma$[/tex]

   [tex]$=3 \times 10^{-3}\times 333333.33$[/tex]

   = 1000 N

Pressure, [tex]$P=\frac{F}{A}$[/tex]

                   [tex]$=\frac{1000}{16}$[/tex]

                   [tex]$=62.5 \ N/m^2$[/tex]

Therefore, time taken is t

Now the distance is

[tex]$d_1=\frac{1}{2}at_1^2$[/tex]

[tex]$d_1=0.5 \times 333333.33 \times (600)^2$[/tex]

    [tex]$=6 \times 10^{10} \ m$[/tex]

Now, the distance, [tex]$d_2 = D-d_1=v.t_2$[/tex]

Now, [tex]$t_2=\frac{(17.2 \times 10^{16})-(6 \times 10^{10})}{2 \times 10^8}$[/tex]

            = 859999700 s

Therefore, total time is

[tex]$T=t_1+t_2$[/tex]

  = 86000300 s

  = 27.27 years

a pendulum that is 1.0 m?
Show your work.

Answers

Answer:

4.9612 s

Explanation:

Applying,

T = 2π√(L/g)............... Equation 1

Where T = period of the pendulum, L = Lenght of the pendulum, g = acceleration due to gravity of the moon, π = pie.

From the question,

Given: L = 1 m, g = 1.6 m/s²

Constant: π = 3.14

Substitute these values into equation 1

T = 2×3.14×√(1/1.6)

T = 6.28√(0.625)

T = 6.28×0.79

T = 4.9612 s

A bat emits a sound at a frequency of 30.0 kHz as it approaches a wall. The bat detects beats such that the frequency of the echo is 900 Hz higher than the frequency the bat is emitting. The speed of sound in air is 340 m/s at emits a sound at a frequency of 30.0 kHz
(a) What is the speed of the bat?
(b) What is the wavelength of the sound that the bat hears15?

Answers

Answer:

a) the speed of the bat is 5.02 m/s

b) the wavelength of the sound that the bat hears is 0.011 m

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Frequency of sound emitted by a bat f = 30.0 kHz = 30000 Hz

detected frequency by the bat δf = 900 Hz

speed of sound in air c = 340 m/s

Let speed of sound and speed of bat be c and [tex]v_s[/tex] respectively;

Now, frequency of the sound that is coming from the bat towards the wall due to DROPPLER EFFET will be;

f₁ = ( c / ( c - [tex]v_s[/tex] ) )f ----- let this be equ 1

Also, frequency does not change after deflection. The bat becomes an observer as the dropper is shifted because the reflected sound wave is coming towards it;

Hence, Doppler shifted frequency will be;

f₂ = ( (c + [tex]v_s[/tex] ) / c )f₁

from equ 1, f₁ = ( c / ( c - [tex]v_s[/tex] ) )f, so we substitute

f₂ = ( (c + [tex]v_s[/tex] ) / c ) × ( c / ( c - [tex]v_s[/tex] ) )f

f₂ = ( (c + [tex]v_s[/tex] ) / ( c - [tex]v_s[/tex] ) )f

∴ beat frequency will be;

δf = f₂ - f = ( (c + [tex]v_s[/tex] ) / ( c - [tex]v_s[/tex] ) )f - f

δf = ( 2[tex]v_s[/tex] / c - [tex]v_s[/tex] )f

δf = ( 2[tex]v_s[/tex] / c - [tex]v_s[/tex] )f

2f/δf = c - [tex]v_s[/tex] / [tex]v_s[/tex]

2f/δf = c/[tex]v_s[/tex] - [tex]v_s[/tex] / [tex]v_s[/tex]

2f/δf = c/[tex]v_s[/tex] - 1

c/[tex]v_s[/tex] = 2f/δf + 1

[tex]v_s[/tex] =  c / (2f/δf + 1)

now, we substitute in our values;

[tex]v_s[/tex] =  340 / ((2×30000 / 900 ) + 1)

[tex]v_s[/tex] =  340 / (66.6666 + 1)

[tex]v_s[/tex] =  340 / 67.6666

[tex]v_s[/tex] =  5.02 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the bat is 5.02 m/s

b) the wavelength of the sound that the bat hears

frequency of reflected wave is;

f₂ = f + δf = 30000 + 900 = 30900 Hz

λ₂ = c / f₂

we substitute

λ₂ = 340 / 30900

λ₂ = 0.011 m

Therefore, the wavelength of the sound that the bat hears is 0.011 m

Answers

Answer:

Average :

LCL = 2.65

Range :

UCL = 2.75

LCL = 0

Explanation:

Given :

Sample size, n = 5

Average, X = 3.4

Range, R = 1.3

A2 for n = 5 ; equals 0.577 ( X chart table)

For the average :

Upper Control Limit (UCL) :

X + A2*R

3.4 + 0.577(1.3) = 4.1501

Lower Control Limit (LCL) :

X - A2*R

3.4 - 0.577(1.3) = 2.6499

FOR the range :

Upper Control Limit (UCL) :

UCL = D4*R

D4 for n = 5 ; equals = 2.114

UCL = 2.114*1.3 = 2.7482

Lower Control Limit (LCL) :

LCL = D3*R

D3 for n = 5 ; equals = 0

LCL = 0 * 1.3 = 0

Explanation:

NASA is giving serious consideration to the concept of solar sailing. A solar sailcraft uses a large, lowmass sail and the energy and momentum of sunlight for propulsion.

a. Should the sail be absorbing or reflective? Why?
b. The total power output of the sun is 3.9×10^26W. How large a sail is necessary to propel a 10,000-kg spacecraft against the gravitational force of the sun? Express your result in square kilometers.
c. Explain why your answer to part (b) is independent of the distance from the sun.

Answers

Answer:

a) the reflective surface has twice the energy transfer

b) A = 1.3 10²⁷ km²

c) the energy emitted by the sun is distributed in a sphere that depends on the square of the distance, and the gravitational force depends on the square of the distance

Explanation:

a) The pressure exerted on the candle is related to the variation of the momentum

          P = [tex]\frac{1}{c} \ \frac{dp}{dt}[/tex]

in a case of absorption (inelastic shock) all the energy is absorbed therefore the pressure is

          P = \frac{1}{c} \ \frac{dp}{dt}

in the case of reflection (elastic shock) an energy is absorbed by absorbing the light and then by action and reaction the same energy is absorbed in the reflected light

          P = 2  \frac{1}{c} \ \frac{dp}{dt}

In conclusion, the reflective surface has twice the energy transfer.

             

b) pressure is defined with force per unit area

           P = F / A

           F = P A

this force must be greater than the gravitational force of attraction of the sun

           Fg = G m Ms / r²

let's look for the case that the two forces are equal

           F = Fg

           P A_sail = G m Ms = r²

suppose a fully reflective sail

           [tex]2 \frac{S}{c} \ A_{sail} = G \frac{m M_s}{r^2}[/tex]

           

The pointing vector is the power delivered per unit area

           S = I = P / A

where A is the area of ​​the sphere where the is distributed by the sun

            A = 4π r²

we substitute

            [tex]\frac{2P}{c} \ \frac{A_{sail}}{4 \pi r^2} = G \frac{m M_s}{r^2}[/tex]

            [tex]\frac{1}{2 \pi \ c }[/tex] A_{sail} = G m M_s

            A = G  m M_s 2π c

let's calculate

            A = 6.67 10⁻¹¹  10000 2 10³⁰ 2π  3 10⁸

            A = 1,257 10³³ m²

let's reduce to km²

            A = 1.3 10³³ m² (1km / 10³ m) ²

            A = 1.3 10²⁷ km²

c) The size of the candle is independent of the distance to the sun because the energy emitted by the sun is distributed in a sphere that depends on the square of the distance, and the gravitational force depends on the square of the distance, therefore the two dependencies are canceled.

how hot can the desert get​

Answers

Answer:

134 f

Explanation:

The hottest temperature ever reliably measured in a desert was 134 degrees F, in Death Valley of the Mojave Desert in 1913.

not as hot as me.jk.

Temperature. During the day, desert temperatures rise to an average of 38°C (a little over 100°F). At night, desert temperatures fall to an average of -3.9°C (about 25°F). At night, desert temperatures fall to an average of -3.9 degrees celsius (about 25 degrees fahrenheit).

Desert surfaces receive a little more than twice the solar radiation received by humid regions and lose almost twice as much heat at night. Many mean annual temperatures range from 20-25 degrees Celsius. The extreme maximum ranges from 43.5-49 degrees Celsius. Minimum temperatures sometimes drop to -18 degrees Celsius.

Smoke detectors fall into two major classes. Ionization detectors, the most common units, contain two parallel electrodes that are typically separated by 3 cm with a 5-V potential difference across them. The air molecules between the electrodes are ionized by collisions with helium nuclei that are produced by a radioactive source. Most units are initially fueled with 60 million nuclei of radioactive americium 241 (half-life 430 years). The now-ionized air molecules drift toward one of the electrodes with an average speed of 0.1 m/s and thus support a small current between the two electrodes. Smoke particles that enter and combine with the ions reduce the current and initiate an alarm.
Photoelectric detectors, by contrast, contain a light-emitting diode that sends a beam of unpolarized light across a small chamber. The light beam usually has a wavelength of 6.0 × 10–7m and has an intensity of 1.0 × 10–3 W. When smoke particles enter the chamber, the light scatters in all directions. A photocell then senses either the increase in the scattered light or the reduced intensity of the light beam and sets off the alarm. The speed of light in air is 3.0 × 108 m/s.
Ionization detectors respond faster to the large smoke particles of flaming fires; photoelectric detectors sense the small particles of smoldering fires more quickly. Modern units have both types of detectors.
When fewer than 3.75 × 106 americium nuclei remain, the ionization smoke detector will not operate due to insufficient ionization. How much time will pass before there are this many nuclei remaining?
a. 1720 years
b. 2150 years
c. 4300 years
d. 6880 years

Answers

Answer:

1720 years is the amount of time that will pass.

Option a) 1720 years is the correct answer

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

 Number of nuclei initially N₀  = 60 million = 60,000,000

After time t, Number of nuclei remaining N[tex]_{rem[/tex] = 3.75 × 10⁶

Also given that; half-life of radioactive americium [tex]t_{1/2[/tex] = 430 years.

so;

λ = ln2 / [tex]t_{1/2[/tex]

we substitute

λ = ln2 / 430 years

N[tex]_{rem[/tex] = N₀e^(-λt)

solve for t

t = 1/λ × ln( N₀/N[tex]_{rem[/tex]  )

so we substitute

t = 1 / (ln2 / 430 years) × ln( 60,000,000 / ( 3.75 × 10⁶ ) )

t = ( 430 years / ln2 ) × ln( 60,000,000 / ( 3.75 × 10⁶ ) )

t = ( 430 years / 0.693147 ) × ln( 16 )

t = 620.359 years × 2.7725887

t =  1720.0003 ≈ 1720 years

Therefore, 1720 years is the amount of time that will pass.

Option a) 1720 years is the correct answer

5. A ball weighing 10 kg rolls 200 m down a frictionless incline with a 50 degree angle to the horizontal. If the ball’s initial velocity was 0 m/s, how much does the mechanical energy of the system change by the time the ball reaches its destination? A) It increased by 12%. B) It increases by 58%. C) It decreases by 12%. D) It does not change.

Answers

Answer:

D) It does not change

Explanation:

Since there is no friction in the inclined plane. Therefore, there is no loss in the total mechanical energy of the system. So according to the law of conservation of energy we can write:

Total Mechanical Energy at Start = Total Mechanical Energy at End + Frictional Loss

Total Mechanical Energy at Start = Total Mechanical Energy at End + 0

Total Mechanical Energy at Start = Total Mechanical Energy at End

It means there is no change in the total mechanical energy of the system.

Therefore, the correct option is:

D) It does not change

what is the focalength of the combination of two thin renses of power -5D and -2D placeci in contact with each other?​

Answers

Answer:

f = - 0.143 m = - 14.3 cm

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the power of the combination of lenses:

P = P₁ + P₂

where,

P = Power of Combination = ?

P₁ = Power of first lens = - 5D

P₂ = Power of second lens = - 2D

Therefore,

P = - 5D - 2D

P = - 7D

Now, the focal length can be given as:

[tex]f = \frac{1}{P} \\\\f = \frac{1}{-\ 7\ D} \\\\[/tex]

f = - 0.143 m = - 14.3 cm

Negative focal length indicates that combination will act as diverging lens.

D- You may struggle to stay at the same speed

Answers

Answer:

A) you can't see far ahead

D. You may struggle to stay at the same speed.

Winding roads and sharp curves are dangerous because of centrifugal forces while taking curves, whose classic formula is described below:

[tex]F = m\cdot \frac{v^{2}}{r}[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]F[/tex] - Centrifugal force, in newtons.[tex]v[/tex] - Speed, in meters per second.[tex]r[/tex] - Radius of curvature, in meters per second.

Sharps curves are characterized by low radii of curvature. Given that centrifugal force is inversely proportional to the square radius of curvature and it is opposed to friction force between tires and pavement, if centrifugal force is higher than maximum static friction force, then a car accident could if driver does not decelerate.

Therefore, correct choice is D.
