Answer:
Total heat transfer is positive
Total work transfer is positive
Explanation:
The first law of thermodynamics states that when a system interacts with its surrounding, the amount of energy gained by the system must be equal to the amount of energy lost by the surrounding. In a closed system, exchange of energy with the surrounding can be done through heat and work transfer.
Heat transfer to a system is positive and that transferred from the system is negative.
Also, work done by a system is positive while the work done on the system is negative.
Therefore, from the question, since the heat engine inputs 10kJ of heat, then heat is being transferred to the system. Hence, the sign of the total heat transfer is positive (+ve)
Also, since the heat engine outputs 5kJ of work, it implies that work is being done by the system. Hence the sign of the total work transfer is also positive (+ve).
An ice skater spinning with outstretched arms has an angular speed of 5.0 rad/s . She tucks in her arms, decreasing her moment of inertia by 11 % . By what factor does the skater's kinetic energy change? (Neglect any frictional effects.)
Answer:
K_{f} / K₀ =1.12
Explanation:
This problem must work using the conservation of angular momentum (L), so that the moment is conserved in the system all the forces must be internal and therefore the torque is internal and the moment is conserved.
Initial moment. With arms outstretched
L₀ = I₀ w₀
the wo value is 5.0 rad / s
final moment. After he shrugs his arms
[tex]L_{f}[/tex] = I_{f} w_{f}
indicate that the moment of inertia decreases by 11%
I_{f} = I₀ - 0.11 I₀ = 0.89 I₀
L_{f} = L₀
I_{f} w_{f} = I₀ w₀
w_{f} = I₀ /I_{f} w₀
let's calculate
w_{f} = I₀ / 0.89 I₀ 5.0
w_{f} = 5.62 rad / s
Having these values we can calculate the change in kinetic energy
[tex]K_{f}[/tex] / K₀ = ½ I_{f} w_{f}² (½ I₀ w₀²)
K_{f} / K₀ = 0.89 I₀ / I₀ (5.62 / 5)²
K_{f} / K₀ =1.12
An aging coyote cannot run fast enough to catch a roadrunner. He purchases on eBay a set of jet-powered roller skates, which provide a constant horizontal acceleration of 15.0 m/s2. The coyote starts at rest 70.0 m from the edge of a cliff at the instant the roadrunner zips past in the direction of the cliff.
Required:
a. Determine the minimum constant speed the roadrunner must have to reach the cliff before the coyote. At the edge of the cliff, the roadrunner escapes by making a sudden turn, while the coyote continues straight ahead. The coyote’s skates remain horizontal and continue to operate while he is in flight.
b. The cliff is 100 m above the flat floor of the desert. Determine how far from the base of the cliff the coyote lands.
c. Determine the components of the coyote’s impact velocity
Answer:
a) v_correcaminos = 22.95 m / s , b) x = 512.4 m ,
c) v = (45.83 i ^ -109.56 j ^) m / s
Explanation:
We can solve this exercise using the kinematics equations
a) Let's find the time or the coyote takes to reach the cliff, let's start by finding the speed on the cliff
v² = v₀² + 2 a x
they tell us that the coyote starts from rest v₀ = 0 and its acceleration is a=15 m / s²
v = √ (2 15 70)
v = 45.83 m / s
with this value calculate the time it takes to arrive
v = v₀ + a t
t = v / a
t = 45.83 / 15
t = 3.05 s
having the distance to the cliff and the time, we can find the constant speed of the roadrunner
v_ roadrunner = x / t
v_correcaminos = 70 / 3,05
v_correcaminos = 22.95 m / s
b) if the coyote leaves the cliff with the horizontal velocity v₀ₓ = 45.83 m / s, they ask how far it reaches.
Let's start by looking for the time to reach the cliff floor
y = y₀ + [tex]v_{oy}[/tex] t - ½ g t²
in this case y = 0 and the height of the cliff is y₀ = 100 m
0 = 100 + 45.83 t - ½ 9.8 t²
t² - 9,353 t - 20,408 = 0
we solve the quadratic equation
t = [9,353 ±√ (9,353² + 4 20,408)] / 2
t = [9,353 ± 13] / 2
t₁ = 11.18 s
t₂ = -1.8 s
Since time must be a positive quantity, the answer is t = 11.18 s
we calculate the horizontal distance traveled
x = v₀ₓ t
x = 45.83 11.18
x = 512.4 m
c) speed when it hits the ground
vₓ = v₀ₓ = 45.83 m / s
we look for vertical speed
v_{y} = [tex]v_{oy}[/tex] - gt
v_{y} = 0 - 9.8 11.18
v_{y} = - 109.56 m / s
v = (45.83 i ^ -109.56 j ^) m / s
Monochromatic coherent light shines through a pair of slits. If the wavelength of the light is decreased, which of the following statements are true of the resulting interference pattern? (There could be more than one correct choice.)
a. The distance between the maxima decreases.
b. The distance between the minima decreases.
c. The distance between the maxima stays the same.
d. The distance between the minima increases.
e. The distance between the minima stays the same.
Answer:
he correct answers are a, b
Explanation:
In the two-slit interference phenomenon, the expression for interference is
d sin θ= m λ constructive interference
d sin θ = (m + ½) λ destructive interference
in general this phenomenon occurs for small angles, for which we can write
tanθ = y / L
tan te = sin tea / cos tea = sin tea
sin θ = y / La
un
derestimate the first two equations.
Let's do the calculation for constructive interference
d y / L = m λ
the distance between maximum clos is and
y = (me / d) λ
this is the position of each maximum, the distance between two consecutive maximums
y₂-y₁ = (L 2/d) λ - (L 1 / d) λ₁ y₂ -y₁ = L / d λ
examining this equation if the wavelength decreases the value of y also decreases
the same calculation for destructive interference
d y / L = (m + ½) κ
y = [(m + ½) L / d] λ
again when it decreases the decrease the distance
the correct answers are a, b
A solid conducting sphere is placed in an external uniform electric field. With regard to the electric field on the sphere's interior, which statement is correct
Complete question:
A solid conducting sphere is placed in an external uniform electric field. With regard to the electric field on the sphere's interior, which statement is correct?
A. the interior field points in a direction parallel to the exterior field
B. There is no electric field on the interior of the conducting sphere.
C. The interior field points in a direction perpendicular to the exterior field.
D. the interior field points in a direction opposite to the exterior field.
Answer:
B. There is no electric field on the interior of the conducting sphere.
Explanation:
Conductors are said to have free charges that move around easily. When the conductor is now placed in a static electric field, the free charges react to attain electrostatic equilibrium (steady state).
Here, a solid conducting sphere is placed in an external uniform electric field. Until the lines of the electric field are perpendicular to the surface, the free charges will move around the spherical conductor, causing polarization. There would be no electric field in the interior of the spherical conductor because there would be movement of free charges in the spherical conductor in response to any field until its neutralization.
Option B is correct.
There is no electric field on the interior of the conducting sphere.
A skater on ice with arms extended and one leg out spins at 3 rev/s. After he draws his arms and the leg in, his moment of inertia is reduced to 1/2. What is his new angular speed
Answer:
The new angular speed is [tex]w = 6 \ rev/s[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The angular velocity of the spin is [tex]w_o = 3 \ rev/s[/tex]
The original moment of inertia is [tex]I_o[/tex]
The new moment of inertia is [tex]I =\frac{I_o}{2}[/tex]
Generally angular momentum is mathematically represented as
[tex]L = I * w[/tex]
Now according to the law of conservation of momentum, the initial momentum is equal to the final momentum hence the angular momentum is constant so
[tex]I * w = constant[/tex]
=> [tex]I_o * w _o = I * w[/tex]
where w is the new angular speed
So
[tex]I_o * 3 = \frac{I_o}{2} * w[/tex]
=> [tex]w = \frac{3 * I_o}{\frac{I_o}{2} }[/tex]
=> [tex]w = 6 \ rev/s[/tex]
When looking at the chemical symbol, the charge of the ion is displayed as the
-superscript
-subscript
-coefficient
-product
Answer:
superscript
Explanation:
When looking at the chemical symbol, the charge of the ion is displayed as the Superscript. This is because the charge of ions is usually written up on the chemical symbol while the atom/molecule is usually written down the chemical symbol. The superscript refers to what is written up on the formula while the subscript is written down on the formula.
An example is H2O . The 2 present represents two molecule of oxygen and its written as the subscript while Fe2+ in which the 2+ is written up is known as the superscript.
Answer:
superscript

Explanation:
A 30 L electrical radiator containing heating oil is placed in a 50 m3room. Both the roomand the oil in the radiator are initially at 10◦C. The radiator with a rating of 1.8 kW is nowturned on. At the same time, heat is lost from the room at an average rate of 0.35 kJ/s.After some time, the average temperature is measured to be 20◦C for the air in the room,and 50◦C for the oil in the radiator. Taking the density and the specific heat of the oil to be950 kg/m3and 2.2 kJ/kg◦C, respectively, determine how long the heater is kept on. Assumethe room is well sealed so that there are no air leaks.
Answer:
Explanation:
Heat absorbed by oil
= mass x specific heat x rise in temperature
= 30 x 10⁻³ x 950 x 2.2 x 10³ x ( 50-10 )
= 25.08 x 10⁵ J
Heat absorbed by air
= 50 x 1.2 x 1.0054 x 10³ x ( 20-10 )
= 6.03 x 10⁵ J
Total heat absorbed = 31.11 x 10⁵ J
If time required = t
heat lost from room
= .35 x 10³ t
Total heat generated in time t
= 1.8 x 10³ t
Heat generated = heat used
1.8 x 10³ t = .35 x 10³ t + 31.11 x 10⁵
1.45 x 10³ t = 31.11 x 10⁵
t = 31.11 x 10⁵ / 1.45 x 10³
t = 2145.5 s
A uniform crate C with mass mC is being transported to the left by a forklift with a constant speed v1. What is the magnitude of the angular momentum of the crate about point A, that is, the point of contact between the front tire of the forklift and the ground
Answer:
The angular momentum of the crate is [tex]M_{C} V_{1} d[/tex]
Explanation:
mass of the crate = [tex]M_{C}[/tex]
speed of forklift = [tex]V_{1}[/tex]
The distance between the center of the mass and the point A = d
Recall that the angular moment is the moment of the momentum.
[tex]L = P*d[/tex] ..... equ 1
where L is the angular momentum,
P is the momentum of the system,
d is the perpendicular distance between the crate and the point on the axis about which the momentum acts. It is equal to d from the image
Also, we know that the momentum P is the product of mass and velocity
P = mv ....equ 2
in this case, the mass = [tex]M_{C}[/tex]
the velocity = [tex]V_{1}[/tex]
therefore, the momentum P = [tex]M_{C}[/tex][tex]V_{1}[/tex]
we substitute equation 2 into equation 1 to give
[tex]L = M_{C} V_{1} d[/tex]

P= √256
P= 16 years.
Orbital period is 16 years.
Use Coulomb’s law to derive the dimension for the permittivity of free space.
Answer:
Coulomb's law is:
[tex]F = \frac{1}{4*pi*e0} *(q1*q2)/r^2[/tex]
First, force has units of Newtons, the charges have units of Coulombs, and r, the distance, has units of meters, then, working only with the units we have:
N = (1/{e0})*C^2/m^2
then we have:
{e0} = C^2/(m^2*N)
And we know that N = kg*m/s^2
then the dimensions of e0 are:
{e0} = C^2*s^2/(m^3)
(current square per time square over cubed distance)
And knowing that a Faraday is:
F = C^2*S^2/m^2
The units of e0 are:
{e0} = F/m.

A 10 gauge copper wire carries a current of 23 A. Assuming one free electron per copper atom, calculate the magnitude of the drift velocity of the electrons.
Question:
A 10 gauge copper wire carries a current of 15 A. Assuming one free electron per copper atom, calculate the drift velocity of the electrons. (The cross-sectional area of a 10-gauge wire is 5.261 mm².)
Answer:
3.22 x 10⁻⁴ m/s
Explanation:
The drift velocity (v) of the electrons in a wire (copper wire in this case) carrying current (I) is given by;
v = [tex]\frac{I}{nqA}[/tex]
Where;
n = number of free electrons per cubic meter
q = electron charge
A = cross-sectional area of the wire
First let's calculate the number of free electrons per cubic meter (n)
Known constants:
density of copper, ρ = 8.95 x 10³kg/m³
molar mass of copper, M = 63.5 x 10⁻³kg/mol
Avogadro's number, Nₐ = 6.02 x 10²³ particles/mol
But;
The number of copper atoms, N, per cubic meter is given by;
N = (Nₐ x ρ / M) -------------(ii)
Substitute the values of Nₐ, ρ and M into equation (ii) as follows;
N = (6.02 x 10²³ x 8.95 x 10³) / 63.5 x 10⁻³
N = 8.49 x 10²⁸ atom/m³
Since there is one free electron per copper atom, the number of free electrons per cubic meter is simply;
n = 8.49 x 10²⁸ electrons/m³
Now let's calculate the drift electron
Known values from question:
A = 5.261 mm² = 5.261 x 10⁻⁶m²
I = 23A
q = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹C
Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;
v = [tex]\frac{I}{nqA}[/tex]
v = [tex]\frac{23}{8.49*10^{28} * 1.6 *10^{-19} * 5.261*10^{-6}}[/tex]
v = 3.22 x 10⁻⁴ m/s
Therefore, the drift electron is 3.22 x 10⁻⁴ m/s

Alternating Current In Europe, the voltage of the alternating current coming through an electrical outlet can be modeled by the function V 230 sin (100t), where tis measured in seconds and Vin volts.What is the frequency of the voltage
Answer:
[tex]\frac{50}{\pi }[/tex]Hz
Explanation:
In alternating current (AC) circuits, voltage (V) oscillates in a sine wave pattern and has a general equation as a function of time (t) as follows;
V(t) = V sin (ωt + Ф) -----------------(i)
Where;
V = amplitude value of the voltage
ω = angular frequency = 2 π f [f = cyclic frequency or simply, frequency]
Ф = phase difference between voltage and current.
Now,
From the question,
V(t) = 230 sin (100t) ---------------(ii)
By comparing equations (i) and (ii) the following holds;
V = 230
ω = 100
Ф = 0
But;
ω = 2 π f = 100
2 π f = 100 [divide both sides by 2]
π f = 50
f = [tex]\frac{50}{\pi }[/tex]Hz
Therefore, the frequency of the voltage is [tex]\frac{50}{\pi }[/tex]Hz
Muons are elementary particles that are formed high in the atmosphere by the interactions of cosmic rays with atomic nuclei. Muons are radioactive and have average lifetimes of about two-millionths of a second. Even though they travel at almost the speed of light, they have so far to travel through the atmosphere that very few should be detected at sea level - at least according to classical physics. Laboratory measurements, however, show that muons in great number do reach the earth's surface. What is the explanation?
Answer:
Muons reach the earth in great amount due to the relativistic time dilation from an earthly frame of reference.
Explanation:
Muons travel at exceedingly high speed; close to the speed of light. At this speed, relativistic effect starts to take effect. The effect of this is that, when viewed from an earthly reference frame, their short half life of about two-millionth of a second is dilated. The dilated time, due to relativistic effects on time for travelling at speed close to the speed of light, gives the muons an extended relative travel time before their complete decay. So in reality, the muon do not have enough half-life to survive the distance from their point of production high up in the atmosphere to sea level, but relativistic effect due to their near-light speed, dilates their half-life; enough for them to be found in sufficient amount at sea level.
can I get help please?
The Law of Biot-Savart shows that the magnetic field of an infinitesimal current element decreases as 1/r2. Is there anyway you could put together a complete circuit (any closed path of current-carrying wire) whose field exhibits this same 1/r^2 decrease in magnetic field strength? Explain your reasoning.
Answer and Explanation:
There is no probability of obtaining such a circuit of closed track current carrying wire whose field of magnitude displays i.e. [tex]B \alpha \frac{1}{r^2}[/tex]
The magnetic field is a volume of vectors
And [tex]\phi\ bds = 0[/tex]. This ensures isolated magnetic poles or magnetic charges would not exit
Therefore for a closed path, we never received magnetic field that followed the [tex]B \alpha \frac{1}{r^2}[/tex] it is only for the simple current-carrying wire for both finite or infinite length.
Observe the process by which the grey and the red spheres are charged using the electrophorus. After each sphere is first charged, what are their charges
Answer:
The gray spheres is negatively charged while the red is positively charged
Explanation:
This is because theelectrophorus becomes less positive once it pulls some electrons away from the red sphere, but, the electrophorus is replaced on the slab and recharged by grounding it before it proceeds to charge the grey sphere, thereby giving it electrons and making it negatively charged
Answer:
The gray sphere has a positive charge and the red sphere has a positive charge.

A force of 44 N will stretch a rubber band 88 cm (0.080.08 m). Assuming that Hooke's law applies, how far will aa 11-N force stretch the rubber band? How much work does it take to stretch the rubber band this far?
Answer:
The rubber band will be stretched 0.02 m.
The work done in stretching is 0.11 J.
Explanation:
Force 1 = 44 N
extension of rubber band = 0.080 m
Force 2 = 11 N
extension = ?
According to Hooke's Law, force applied is proportional to the extension provided elastic limit is not extended.
F = ke
where k = constant of elasticity
e = extension of the material
F = force applied.
For the first case,
44 = 0.080K
K = 44/0.080 = 550 N/m
For the second situation involving the same rubber band
Force = 11 N
e = 550 N/m
11 = 550e
extension e = 11/550 = 0.02 m
The work done to stretch the rubber band this far is equal to the potential energy stored within the rubber due to the stretch. This is in line with energy conservation.
potential energy stored = [tex]\frac{1}{2}ke^{2}[/tex]
==> [tex]\frac{1}{2}* 550* 0.02^{2}[/tex] = 0.11 J

A "laser cannon" of a spacecraft has a beam of cross-sectional area A. The maximum electric field in the beam is 2E. The beam is aimed at an asteroid that is initially moving in the direction of the spacecraft. What is the acceleration of the asteroid relative to the spacecraft if the laser beam strikes the asteroid perpendicularly to its surface, and the surface is not reflecting
Answer:
Acceleration of the asteroid relative to the spacecraft = 2ε[tex]E^{2}[/tex]A/m
Explanation:
The maximum electric field in the beam = 2E
cross-sectional area of beam = A
The intensity of an electromagnetic wave with electric field is
I = cε[tex]E_{0} ^{2}[/tex]/2
for [tex]E_{0}[/tex] = 2E
I = 2cε[tex]E^{2}[/tex] ....equ 1
where
I is the intensity
c is the speed of light
ε is the permeability of free space
[tex]E_{0}[/tex] is electric field
Radiation pressure of an electromagnetic wave on an absorbing surface is given as
P = I/c
substituting for I from above equ 1. we have
P = 2cε[tex]E^{2}[/tex]/c = 2ε[tex]E^{2}[/tex] ....equ 2
Also, pressure P = F/A
therefore,
F = PA ....equ 3
where
F is the force
P is pressure
A is cross-sectional area
substitute equ 2 into equ 3, we have
F = 2ε[tex]E^{2}[/tex]A
force on a body = mass x acceleration.
that is
F = ma
therefore,
a = F/m
acceleration of the asteroid will then be
a = 2ε[tex]E^{2}[/tex]A/m
where m is the mass of the asteroid.
Two carts are connected by a loaded spring on a horizontal, frictionless surface. The spring is released and the carts push away from each other. Cart 1 has mass M and Cart 2 has mass M/3.
a) Is the momentum of Cart 1 conserved?
Yes
No
It depends on M
b) Is the momentum of Cart 2 conserved?
Yes
No
It depends on M
c) Is the total momentum of Carts 1 and 2 conserved?
Yes
No
It depends on M
d) Which cart ends up moving faster?
Cart 1
Cart 2
They move at the same speed
e) If M = 6 kg and Cart 1 moves with a speed of 16 m/s, what is the speed of Cart 2?
0 m/s
4.0 m/s
5.3 m/s
16 m/s
48 m/s
64 m/s
Answer:
a) yes
b) no
c) yes
d)Cart 2 with mass [tex]\frac{M}{3}[/tex] is expected to be more faster
e) u₂ = 48 m/s
Explanation:
a) the all out linear momentum of an arrangement of particles of Cart 1 not followed up on by external forces is constant.
b) the linear momentum of Cart 2 will be acted upon by external force by Cart 1 with mass M, thereby it's variable and the momentum is not conserved
c) yes, the momentum is conserved because no external force acted upon it and both Carts share the same velocity after the reaction
note: m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = (m₁ + m₂)v
d) Cart 2 with mass [tex]\frac{M}{3}[/tex] will be faster than Cart 1 because Cart 2 is three times lighter than Cart 1.
e) Given
m₁= M
u₁ = 16m/s
m₂ =[tex]\frac{M}{3}[/tex]
u₂ = ?
from law of conservation of momentum
m₁u₁= m₂u₂
M× 16 = [tex]\frac{M}{3}[/tex] × u₂(multiply both sides by 3)
therefore, u₂ = [tex]\frac{3(M .16)}{M}[/tex] ("." means multiplication)
∴u₂ = 3×16 = 48 m/s
2. A pair of narrow, parallel slits sep by 0.25 mm is illuminated by 546 nm green light. The interference pattern is observed on a screen situated at 1.3 m away from the slits. Calculate the distance from the central maximum to the
Answer:
for the first interference m = 1 y = 2,839 10-3 m
for the second interference m = 2 y = 5,678 10-3 m
Explanation:
The double slit interference phenomenon, for constructive interference is described by the expression
d sin θ = m λ
where d is the separation between the slits, λ the wavelength and m an integer that corresponds to the interference we see.
In these experiments in general the observation screen is L >> d, let's use trigonometry to find the angles
tan θ = y / L
with the angle it is small,
tan θ = sin θ / cos θ = sin θ
we substitute
sin θ = y / L
d y / L = m λ
the distance between the central maximum and an interference line is
y = m λ L / d
let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system
λ = 546 nm = 546 10⁻⁹ m
d = 0.25 mm = 0.25 10⁻³ m
let's substitute the values
y = m 546 10⁻⁹ 1.3 / 0.25 10⁻³
y = m 2,839 10⁻³
the explicit value for a line depends on the value of the integer m, for example
for the first interference m = 1
the distance from the central maximum to the first line is y = 2,839 10-3 m
for the second interference m = 2
the distance from the central maximum to the second line is y = 5,678 10-3 m
An 88.0 kg spacewalking astronaut pushes off a 645 kg satellite, exerting a 110 N force for the 0.450 s it takes him to straighten his arms. How far apart are the astronaut and the satellite after 1.40 min?
Answer:
The astronaut and the satellite are 53.718 m apart.
Explanation:
Given;
mass of spacewalking astronaut, = 88 kg
mass of satellite, = 645 kg
force exerts by the satellite, F = 110N
time for this action, t = 0.45 s
Determine the acceleration of the satellite after the push
F = ma
a = F / m
a = 110 / 645
a = 0.171 m/s²
Determine the final velocity of the satellite;
v = u + at
where;
u is the initial velocity of the satellite = 0
v = 0 + 0.171 x 0.45
v = 0.077 m/s
Determine the displacement of the satellite after 1.4 m
d₁ = vt
d₁ = 0.077 x (1.4 x 60)
d₁ = 6.468 m
According to Newton's third law of motion, action and reaction are equal and opposite;
Determine the backward acceleration of the astronaut after the push;
F = ma
a = F / m
a = 110 / 88
a = 1.25 m/s²
Determine the final velocity of the astronaut
v = u + at
The initial velocity of the astronaut = 0
v = 1.25 x 0.45
v = 0.5625 m/s
Determine the displacement of the astronaut after 1.4 min
d₂ = vt
d₂ = 0.5625 x (1.4 x 60)
d₂ = 47.25 m
Finally, determine the total separation between the astronaut and the satellite;
total separation = d₁ + d₂
total separation = 6.468 m + 47.25 m
total separation = 53.718 m
Therefore, the astronaut and the satellite are 53.718 m apart.
