An important news announcement is transmitted by radio waves to people who are 46 km away, sitting next to their radios, and by sound waves to people sitting across the newsroom, 2.1 m from the newscaster. Take the speed of sound in air to be 348 m/s. What is the difference in time that the message is received

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]0.005847\ \text{s}[/tex]

Explanation:

Radio waves travel at the speed of light

[tex]c[/tex] = Speed of light = [tex]3\times 10^8\ \text{m/s}[/tex]

[tex]d_r[/tex] = Distance between two radios = 46 km

[tex]v[/tex] = Speed of sound in air = 348 m/s

[tex]d_s[/tex] = Distance sound travels across the newsroom = 2.1 m

Time taken by the radio signal to reach the required location is

[tex]t_r=\dfrac{d_r}{c}\\\Rightarrow t_r=\dfrac{46\times 10^3}{3\times 10^8}\\\Rightarrow t_r=0.000153\ \text{s}[/tex]

Time taken by sound to reach the required location is

[tex]t_s=\dfrac{d_s}{v}\\\Rightarrow t_s=\dfrac{2.1}{348}\\\Rightarrow t_s=0.006\ \text{s}[/tex]

The time difference is

[tex]t_s-t_r=0.006-0.000153=0.005847\ \text{s}[/tex]

The difference in time that the message is received is [tex]0.005847\ \text{s}[/tex].

What is the final temperature when 625 grams of water at 75.0° C loses 7.96 x 10^4 J? (cwater = 4186 J/kg°C)

Answers

Answer:

T_f = 44.6 ° C

Explanation:

We can solve this exercise using the calorimetry relations

          Q = m c_e ΔT

          ΔT = [tex]\frac{Q}{m \ c_e}[/tex]

let's calculate

          ΔT = -7.96 10⁴ /(0.625 4186)

          ΔT = -3.04 10¹

The negative sign indicates that the temperature decreases

the temperature variation is

          T_f - T₀ = ΔT

          T_f = T₀ + ΔT

          T_f = 75.0 - 30.4

          T_f = 44.6 ° C

Three 5 Ohm resistors are connected in parallel to a 9 Volt power supply. What is the current through each resistor?

Answers

Answer:

I₁ = I₂ = I₃ = 12 A

Explanation:

Since the resistors are connected in parallel across a battery. Hence, the voltage across each of them will be the same, which will be equal to the voltage of the power supply. Since each resistor has the same resistance of 5 Ω. Therefore. the current across each resistor will also be the same. We can easily calculate these current values by the use of Ohm's Law, as follows:

[tex]V = IR\\I_{1}=I_{2}=I_{3}=\frac{V}{R} \\\\I_{1}=I_{2}=I_{3}=\frac{9\ Volt}{5 \Omega}\\\\[/tex]

I₁ = I₂ = I₃ = 12 A

how are characteristics of electromagnetic waves affected by medium

Answers

Answer:

Hello,

QUESTION)

Light is an electromagnetic wave, its speed is maximum in space and almost in the air where interactions have almost no effect. In other non-opaque media, light is subject to several phenomena: refraction and reflection. Part of the incident ray will be reflected in the same medium while the other part will be refracted in the new medium with a lower speed. In general, the medium influences the speed, and therefore the wavelength.  

To teach you how to find the parameters characterizing an object in a circular orbit around a much heavier body like the earth.
The motivation for Isaac Newton to discover his laws of motion was to explain the properties of planetary orbits that were observed by Tycho Brahe and analyzed by Johannes Kepler. A good starting point for understanding this (as well as the speed of the space shuttle and the height of geostationary satellites) is the simplest orbit--a circular one. This problem concerns the properties of circular orbits for a satellite orbiting a planet of mass M. For all parts of this problem, where appropriate, use G for the universal gravitational constant.
1. Find an expression for the square of the orbital period.
2. The quantities v, K, U, and L all represent physical quantities characterizing the orbit that depend on radius R. Indicate the exponent (power) of the radial dependence of the absolute value of each.

Answers

Answer:

a)  T² = ([tex]\frac{4\pi ^2}{GM}[/tex])  r³

b) veloicity the dependency is the inverse of the root of the distance

kinetic energy  depends on the inverse of the distance

potential energy dependency is the inverse of distance

angular momentum depends directly on the root of the distance

Explanation:

1) for this exercise we will use Newton's second law

            F = ma

in this case the acceleration is centripetal

            a = v² / r

the linear and angular variable are related

           v = w r

we substitute

           a = w² r

force is the universal force of attraction

           F = [tex]G \frac{m M}{r^2}[/tex]

we substitute

         [tex]G \frac{m M}{r^2} = m w^2 r[/tex]

         w² = [tex]\frac{GM}{r^3}[/tex]

angular velocity is related to frequency and period

         w = 2π f = 2π / T

we substitute

            [tex]( \frac{2\pi }{T} ) = \frac{GM}{r^3}[/tex]

the final equation is

             T² = ()  r³

b) the speed of the orbit can be found

           v = w r

            v = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r^3} } \ r[/tex]

            v = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r} }[/tex]

in this case the dependency is the inverse of the root of the distance

Kinetic energy

           K = ½ M v²

           K = ½ M GM / r

           K = ½ GM² 1 / r

the kinetic energy depends on the inverse of the distance

Potential energy

          U =

          U = -G mM / r

dependency is the inverse of distance

Angular momentum

          L = r x p

for a circular orbit

           L = r p = r Mv

           L =

Two substances of different temperatures are brought into thermal contact. While the objects come to equilibrium, some heat is lost to the environment. How would that affect the final temperature?

A) it would be higher

B) it would change unpredictably

C) it would remain the same

D) it would be lower

Answers

Answer:

the correct  is D

Explanation:

In the calorimetry exercises, if there are no losses, we assume that all the heat lost by one body is absorbed by the other, but if there are losses

         Q_ {yielded} = Q_ {absent} + Q_ {lost}

Since energy cannot be created or destroyed, they only ask to change, therefore the term of the absorbed heat must decrease, consequently the final temperature of the system is lower when there is loss of energy.

An electric motor supplies 2,500 Watts of power in a 220 V circuit. What is the resistance of the motor? Be sure to include the proper units in your answer. Remember... Ω is the unit for Resistance.

Answers

Answer:

R = 19.36  ohms

Explanation:

Given that,

The power of an electric motor, P = 2500 Watts

The voltage of the circuit, V = 220 V

We need to find the resistance of the motor. We can find it as follows :

[tex]P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}\\\\R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}\\\\R=\dfrac{(220)^2}{2500}\\R=19.36\ \Omega[/tex]

So, the resistance of the motor is 19.36  ohms.

A uniform 140 g rod with length 57 cm rotates in a horizontal plane about a fixed, vertical, frictionless pin through its center. Two small 30 g beads are mounted on the rod such that they are able to slide without friction along its length. Initially the beads are held by catches at positions 11 cm on each sides of the center, at which time the system rotates at an angular speed of 23 rad/s. Suddenly, the catches are released and the small beads slide outward along the rod. Find the angular speed of the system at the instant the beads reach the ends of the rod. Answer in units of rad/s.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is "12 rad/s"

Explanation:

The given values are,

Mass of rod,

M = 140 g

i.e.,

   = 0.14 kg

Length,

L = 57 cm

i.e.,

  = 0.57 m

Mass of beads,

M = 30 g

i.e.,

   = 0.03 kg

Angular speed,

r = 11 cm

i.e.,

 = 0.11 m

Now,

The inertia of rods will be:

=  [tex]\frac{1}{12}ML ^2[/tex]

On substituting the values, we get

=  [tex]\frac{1}{12}\times 0.14\times (0.57)^2[/tex]

=  [tex]0.0037905 \ kg-m^2[/tex]

The inertia of beads will be:

=  [tex]mr^2[/tex]

On substituting the values, we get

=  [tex]0.03\times (0.11)^2[/tex]

=  [tex]0.000726 \ kg-m^2[/tex]

The total inertia will be:

=  [tex]Inertia \ of \ rods+Inertia \ of \ beads[/tex]

=  [tex]0.0037905 + 0.000726[/tex]

=  [tex]0.0045165 \ kg-m^2[/tex]

now,

The angular speed of the system will be:

⇒ [tex]L_1w_1=L_2w_2[/tex]

On substituting the values in the above equation, we get

⇒ [tex]0.0045165\times 23 = (0.0037905 + (0.03\times 0.285^2)\times 2 )\times w_2[/tex]

⇒ [tex]0.1038795 = 0.0037905 + (0.00243675\times 2 )\times w_2[/tex]

⇒             [tex]w_2 = 12 \ rad/s[/tex]

If 1000 J of heat energy is lost from a piece of hot metal which is placed into a cup of cool water, how much energy is gained by the water?

Answers

Answer:

1000J

Explanation:

According to the law of calorimetry;

Heat lost by cold substance = Heat gained by hot substance

If 1000 J of heat energy is lost from a piece of hot metal,

heat lost by hot substance = 1000J

Since we are to determine how much energy is gained by the water, using the law

Heat lost by hot metal = heat gained by the water

Hence heat gained by the water = 1000J
