The closest star to our solar system is Alpha Centauri, which is 4.12 × 10^16 m away. How long would it take light from Alpha Centauri to reach our solar system if the speed of light is 3.00 × 10^8 m/s? (Provide an answer in both seconds and in years.)
(According to the textbook the answer is 4.35 years, i'm just not sure how to get there as I keep getting a different answer)
Time = (distance) / (speed)
Time = (4.12x10^16 m) / (3 x10^8 m/s)
Time = 1.37 x 10^8 seconds
Divide the seconds by 86,400 to get days. Then divide the days by 365 to get years.
Time = about 4.35 years

Explanation:
Two identical resistors are connected in parallel across a 26-V battery, which supplies them with a total power of 7.1 W. While the battery is still connected, one of the resistors is heated so that its resistance doubles. The resistance of the other resistor remains unchanged. Find (a) the initial resistance of each resistor, and (b) the total power delivered to the resistors after one resistor has been heated.
Answer:
A) R = 190.42 Ω
B) P = 5.325 W
Explanation:
We are given;
Total power;P_tot = 7.1 W
Voltage;V = 26 V
A)We are told that while the battery is still connected, one of the resistors is heated, so that its resistance doubles.
Thus, the power is doubled.
Now, formula for power is;
P = IV
Thus, since power is doubled, we have;
P = 2(IV)
Now, formula for current is; I = V/R
So, P = 2V²/R
Making R the subject, we have;
R = 2V²/P
In this question, P is p_total = 7.1 W
Thus;
R = (2 × 26²)/7.1
R = 190.42 Ω
B) Now, the resistance of the resistors are R and 2R.
Formula for power in this context is;
P = V²/R
Thus,
Total power delivered to the resistors is;
P = V²/R + V²/2R
P = 3V²/2R
P = (3 × 26²)/(2 × 190.42)
P = 5.325 W

A lens with f= 20.0 cm creates a
virtual image at -37.5 cm (in front of
the lens). The object is 4.44 cm
tall. How tall is the image?
(Mind your minus signs.)
(Unit = cm)
Answer:
h ’= 12,768 cm
Explanation:
For this exercise let's use the constructor equation
1 / f = 1 / p + 1 / q
where f is the focal length, p the distance to the object and q the distance to the image
the magnification equation is
m = h '/ h = -q / p
let's find the distance to the object
1 / p = 1 / f- 1 / q
1 / p = 1/20 - 1 / (- 37.5)
1 / p = 0.076666
p = 13.04 cm
now let's use the magnification equation
h ’= - q / p h
let's calculate
h ’= - (-37.5) / 13.04 4.44
h ’= 12,768 cm

Una carga de 4 uC penetra perpendicularmente en un campo magnetico de 0.4 T con una velocidad de 7.5x10 4 m/s. Calcular la fuerza que recibe la carga
Answer:
F_B = 0.12N
Explanation:
In order to calculate the magnetic force on the charge, you use the following formula:
[tex]\vec{F_B}=q\vec{v}\ X\ \vec{B}[/tex] (1)
q: charge of the particle = 4μC = 4*10^-6 C
v: speed of the charge = 7.5*10^4 m/s
B: magnitude of the magnetic field = 0.4T
The direction of the motion of the charge is perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field. Then, the magnitude of the magnetic force is:
[tex]F_B=qvBsin90\°\\\\F_B=(4*10^{-6}C)(7.5*10^4 m/s)(0.4T)=0.12N[/tex]
The magnetic force on the charge is 0.12N

Danny lowers the sails on his boat. He paddles upstream at 19 km/hr. The current is still running downstream at 15 km/hr. What is the actual velocity of the boat?
Answer:
4 km/hr
Explanation:
The computation of the actual velocity is shown below:
Because the path of its paddles is opposed to the current direction, the real velocity can be determined by deducting the current velocity to its velocity while paddling
So, the actual velocity is
= Upstream - downstream
= 19 km/hr - 15 km/hr
= 4 km/hr
As we can see it is in positive, so it is an upstream direction
Answer:
since the direction of his paddles is opposite of the the direction of the current, so the actual velocity can be calculated by subtracting the velocity of current to to his velocity when paddling
v = 19 - 15
v = 4 since the answer is positive, then the direction is upstream

At what points in the model do the cars have maximum and minimum gravitational potential energy?
Explanation:
The gravitational potential energy is given by :
E = mgh
Here, mg is force acting on the car
h is height at which it is placed
It is directly proportional to the height or the position of the car. It means if the height is less then it will have minimum potential energy while if the height is more then it will have maximum potential energy.
coma Narrows Bridge across the Puget Sound collapsed. The bridge was a suspension bridge. The wind blowing through the narrows matched the natural frequency of the bridge. This resulted in a large movement of roadway, which eventually caused the bridge to fail. What characteristic of waves caused the bridge to collapse
Answer:
amplitude
Explanation:
Amplitude is the characteristic of waves which caused the bridge to collapse. Amplitude of a wave is the maximum amount of displacement of a particle occurs in the medium from its rest position. When the frequency of a wave reaches the natural frequency of the bridge, the oscillation of the bridge produce an amplitude where it causing the destruction of the bridge which is called Resonance. So we can say that amplitude is the characteristic of waves which is responsible for the collapse of the bridge.
Answer: C.interference, because constructive interference occurred when the wind frequency matched the natural frequency of the bridge

A. The wavelength of the light would decrease from visible light into
the ultraviolet range.
B. The color of the light would fade to black as the brightness
decreased.
C. The color of the light would change to white, and the brightness
would decrease.
D. The wavelength of the light would decrease from visible light into
the infrared range.
Answer:
The Wavelength of the light would decrease from visible light into ultraviolet range A P E X
Explanation:
Classical physics predict that as the temperature is increased, the wavelength of the light would decrease from visible light into more energetic ultraviolet range.
What is classical physics?When an electric charge vibrates, an electromagnetic wave is produced. Remember that heat is simply the kinetic energy of random motion. In a hot object, electrons vibrate in random directions and produce light as a result.
A hotter object produces more energetic vibrations, and thus emits more light —- it glows brighter. So far, so good. However, classical physics was unable to explain the shape of the blackbody spectrum.
As per the classical physics concepts, as the temperature increases, the wavelength of light becomes shorter and shifts to higher energy regions. Therefore, option A is correct.

A car speeds over a hill past point A, as shown in the figure. What is the maximum speed the car can have at point A such that its tires will not leave the track? Round to one decimal place and include units. Image:
Answer:
11.8 m/s
Explanation:
At the top of the hill, there are two forces on the car: weight force pulling down (towards the center of the circle), and normal force pushing up (away from the center of the circle).
Sum of forces in the centripetal direction:
∑F = ma
mg − N = m v²/r
At the maximum speed, the normal force is 0.
mg = m v²/r
g = v²/r
v = √(gr)
v = √(9.8 m/s² × 14.2 m)
v = 11.8 m/s

A proton moves perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field B at a speed of 2.30 107 m/s and experiences an acceleration of 1.70 1013 m/s2 in the positive x direction when its velocity is in the positive z direction. Determine the magnitude and direction of the field.
Answer:
Explanation:
Given the following :
Speed (V) = speed of 2.30×10^7 m/s
Acceleration (a) = 1.70×10^13 m/s^2
Using the right hand rule provided by Lorentz law:
B = F / qvSinΘ
Where B = magnitude of the magnetic field
v = speed of the particle
Θ = 90° (perpendicular to the field)
q = charge of the particle
SinΘ = sin90° = 1
Note F = ma
Therefore,
B = ma / qvSinΘ
Mass of proton = 1.67 × 10^-27
Charge = 1.6 × 10^-19 C
B = [(1.67 × 10^-27) × (1.70 × 10^13)] / (1.6 × 10^-19) × (2.30 × 10^7) × 1
B = 2.839 × 10^-14 / 3.68 × 10^-12
B = 0.7715 × 10^-2
B = 7.72 × 10^-3 T
2) Magnetic field will be in the negative y direction according to the right hand thumb rule.
Since Velocity is in the positive z- direction, acceleration in the positive x - direction, then magnetic field must be in the negative y-direction.

Un contenedor de 1800 N está en reposo sobre un plano inclinado a 28°, el coeficiente de fricción entre el contenedor y el plano es de 0.4. Calcule la fuerza P paralela al plano y dirigida hacia arriba de éste que hará que el contenedor se mueva hacia arriba con una velocidad constante.
Answer:
F = 1480.77N
Explanation:
In order to calculate the required force to push the container with a constant velocity, you take into account the the sum of force on the container is equal to zero. Furthermore, you have for an incline the following sum of forces:
[tex]F-Wsin\alpha-F_r=0\\\\F-Wsin\alpha-N\mu cos\alpha=0\\\\F-Wsin\alpha-W\mu cos\alpha=0[/tex] (1)
F: required force = ?
W: weight of the container = 1800N
N: normal force = weigth
α: angle of the incline = 28°
g: gravitational acceleration = 9.8m/s^2
μ: coefficient of friction = 0.4
You solve the equation (1) for F and replace the values of the other parameters:
[tex]F=W(sin\alpha+\mu cos\alpha)\\\\F=(1800N)(sin28\°+(0.4)cos28\°)=1480.77N[/tex]
The required force to push the container for the incline with a constant velocity is 1480.77N
A car is running at the speed of 45km/hr see a child 25 meter ahead and suddenly apllies a brakes. If the retradation of the car is 2 meter per second square,is the child spared?
Answer:
The car stops in 7.78s and does not spare the child.
Explanation:
In order to know if the car stops before the distance to the child, you take into account the following equation:
[tex]x=x_o+v_ot-\frac{1}{2}at^2[/tex] (1)
vo: initial speed of the car = 45km/h
a: deceleration of the car = 2 m/s^2
t: time
xo: initial distance to the child = 25m
x: final distance to the child = 0m
It is necessary that the solution of the equation (1) for time t are real.
You first convert the initial speed to m/s, then replace the values of the parameters and solve the quadratic polynomial for t:
[tex]45\frac{km}{h}*\frac{1h}{3600s}*\frac{1000m}{1km}=12.5\frac{m}{s}[/tex]
[tex]0=25+12.5t-2t^2\\\\2t^2-12.5t-25=0\\\\t_{1,2}=\frac{-(-12.5)\pm \sqrt{(-12.5)^2-4(2)(-25)}}{2(2)}\\\\t_{1,2}=\frac{12.25\pm 18.87}{4}\\\\t_1=7.78s\\\\t_2=-1.65s[/tex]
You take the first value t1 because it has physical meaning.
The solution for t is real, then, the car stops in 7.78s and does not spare the child.
