A silver rod having a length of 83.0 cm and a cross-sectional diameter of 2.40 cm is used to conduct heat from a reservoir at a temperature of 540 oC into an otherwise completely thermally insulated chamber that contains 1.43 kg of ice at 0 oC. How much time is required for the ice to melt completely
Answer:
3985 s or 66.42 mins
Explanation:
Given:-
- The length of the rod, L = 83.0 cm
- The cross sectional diameter of rod , d = 2.4 cm
- The temperature of reservoir, Tr = 540°C
- The amount of ice in chamber, m = 1.43 kg
- The temperature of ice, Ti = 0°C
- Thermal conductivity of silver, k = 406 W / m.K
- The latent heat of fusion of water, Lf = 3.33 * 10^5 J / kg
Find:-
How much time is required for the ice to melt completely
Solution:-
- We will first determine the amount of heat ( Q ) required to melt 1.43 kg of ice.
- The heat required would be used as latent heat for which we require the latent heat of fusion of ice ( Lf ). We will employ the first law of thermodynamics assuming no heat is lost from the chamber ( perfectly insulated ):
[tex]Q = m*L_f\\\\Q = ( 1.43 ) * ( 3.33 * 10 ^5 )\\\\Q = 476190 J[/tex]
- The heat is supplied from the hot reservoir at the temperature of 540°C by conduction through the silver rod.
- We will assume that the heat transfer through the silver rod is one dimensional i.e along the length ( L ) of the rod.
- We will employ the ( heat equation ) to determine the rate of heat transfer through the rod as follows:
[tex]\frac{dQ}{dt} = \frac{k.A.dT}{dx}[/tex]
Where,
A: the cross sectional area of the rod
dT: The temperature difference at the two ends of the rod
dx: The differential element along the length of rod ( 1 - D )
t: Time ( s )
- The integrated form of the heat equation is expressed as:
[tex]Q = \frac{k*A*( T_r - T_i)}{L}*t[/tex]
- Plug in the respective parameters in the equation above and solve for time ( t ):
[tex]476190 = \frac{406*\pi*0.024^2 * ( 540 - 0 ) }{0.83*4}*t \\\\t = \frac{476190}{119.49619} \\\\t = 3985 s = 66.42 mins[/tex]
Answer: It would take 66.42 minutes to completely melt the ice
To open a door, you apply a force of 10 N on the door knob, directed normal to the plane of the door. The door knob is 0.9 meters from the hinge axis, and the door swings open with an angular acceleration of 5 radians per second squared. What is the moment of inertia of the door
Answer:
The moment of inertia is [tex]I = 1.8 \ kg m^2[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The force applied is [tex]F = 10 \ N[/tex]
The distance of the knob to the hinge is [tex]d = 0.9 \ m[/tex]
The angular acceleration is [tex]a = 5 \ rad/s[/tex]
The moment is mathematically represented as
[tex]I = \frac{d Fsin(\theta)}{a}[/tex]
Here [tex]\theta = 90^o[/tex] This is because the force direction is perpendicular to the plane of the door
substituting values
[tex]I = \frac{0.9 * 10 * sin (90)}{5}[/tex]
[tex]I = 1.8 \ kg m^2[/tex]
To study the properties of various particles, you can accelerate the particles with electric fields. A positron is a particle with the same mass as an electron but the opposite charge ( e). If a positron is accelerated by a constant electric field of magnitude 286 N/C, find the following.
(a) Find the acceleration of the positron. m/s2
(b) Find the positron's speed after 8.70 × 10-9 s. Assume that the positron started from rest. m/s
Answer:
a) a = 5.03x10¹³ m/s²
b) [tex]V_{f} = 4.4 \cdot 10^{5} m/s [/tex]
Explanation:
a) The acceleration of the positron can be found as follows:
[tex] F = q*E [/tex] (1)
Also,
[tex] F = ma [/tex] (2)
By entering equation (1) into (2), we have:
[tex] a = \frac{F}{m} = \frac{qE}{m} [/tex]
Where:
F: is the electric force
m: is the particle's mass = 9.1x10⁻³¹ kg
q: is the charge of the positron = 1.6x10⁻¹⁹ C
E: is the electric field = 286 N/C
[tex] a = \frac{qE}{m} = \frac{1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C*286 N/C}{9.1 \cdot 10^{-31} kg} = 5.03 \cdot 10^{13} m/s^{2} [/tex]
b) The positron's speed can be calculated using the following equation:
[tex] V_{f} = V_{0} + at [/tex]
Where:
[tex]V_{f}[/tex]: is the final speed =?
[tex]V_{0}[/tex]: is the initial speed =0
t: is the time = 8.70x10⁻⁹ s
[tex] V_{f} = V_{0} + at = 0 + 5.03 \cdot 10^{13} m/s^{2}*8.70 \cdot 10^{-9} s = 4.4 \cdot 10^{5} m/s [/tex]

The coefficient of kinetic friction between a suitcase and the floor is 0.272. You may want to review (Pages 196 - 203) . Part A If the suitcase has a mass of 80.0 kg , how far can it be pushed across the level floor with 660 J of work
Answer:
Explanation:
The work required to push will be equal to work done by friction . Let d be the displacement required .
force of friction = mg x μ where m is mass of the suitcase , μ be the coefficient of friction
work done by force of friction
mg x μ x d = 660
80 x 9.8 x .272 x d = 660
d = 3 .1 m .
g: To open a door, you apply a force of 10 N on the door knob, directed normal to the plane of the door. The door knob is 0.9 meters from the hinge axis, and the door swings open with an angular acceleration of 5 radians per second squared. What is the moment of inertia of the door
Answer:
I =1.8 kgm^2
Explanation:
In order to calculate the moment of inertia of the door you use the following formula, which relates the torque applied to the door with its moment of inertia and angular acceleration:
[tex]\tau=I\alpha[/tex] (1)
τ: torque applied to the door
I: moment of inertia of the door
α: angular acceleration = 5 rad/s^2
The torque is also given by τ = Fd, where F is the force applied at a distance of d to the pivot of the door (hinge axis).
F = 10 N
d = 0.9 m
You replace the expression for τ, and solve for I:
[tex]Fd=I\alpha\\\\I=\frac{Fd}{\alpha}\\\\I=\frac{(10N)(0.9m)}{5rad/s^2}=1.8kgm^2[/tex]
The moment of inertia of the door is 1.8 kgm^2
A driver wearing a seat beat decelerates at roughly the same rate as the car it self. Since many modern cars have a "crumble zone" built into the front of the car, let us assume that the car decelerates of a distance of 0.9 m. What is the net force acting on a 65 kg driver who is driving at 18 m/sec and comes to rest in this distance
Answer:
11,700Newton
Explanation:
According to Newton's second law, Force = mass × acceleration
Given mass = 65kg.
Acceleration if the car can be gotten using one of the equation of motion as shown.
v² = u²+2as
v is the final velocity = 18m/s
u is the initial velocity = 0m/s
a is the acceleration
s is the distance travelled = 0.9m
On substitution;
18² = 0²+2a(0.9)
18² = 1.8a
a = 324/1.8
a = 180m/²
Net force acting on the body = 65×180
Net force acting on the body = 11,700Newton
How much displacement will a spring with a constant of 120N / m achieve if it is stretched by a force of 60N?
Answer:
Explanation:
There's a formula for this:
[tex]F = k*displacement[/tex]
F being force, k being the spring constant, and displacement being the change in x
We are given the force and the spring constant, so this is essentially isolating the Δx term. Do 60N/120N per meter. The newtons cancel out and you get a final answer of Δx = 0.5 meters
Using the equation for the distance between fringes, Δy = xλ d , complete the following. (a) Calculate the distance (in cm) between fringes for 694 nm light falling on double slits separated by 0.0850 mm, located 4.00 m from a screen. cm (b) What would be the distance between fringes (in cm) if the entire apparatus were submersed in water, whose index of refraction is 1.333? cm
Answer:
Explanation:
Distance between fringe or fringe width = xλ / d
where x is location of screen and d is slit separation
Given x = 4 m
λ = 694 nm
d = .085 x 10⁻³ m
distance between fringes
= 4 x 694 x 10⁻⁹ / .085 x 10⁻³
= 4 x 694 x 10⁻⁹ / 85 x 10⁻⁶
= 32.66 x 10⁻³ m
= 32.66 mm .
3.267 cm
b )
when submerged in water , wavelength in water becomes as follows
wavelength in water = wave length / refractive index
= 694 / 1.333 nm
= 520.63 nm
new distance between fringes
3.267 / 1.333
= 2.45 cm .
Coherent light that contains two wavelengths, 660 nm and 470 nm , passes through two narrow slits with a separation of 0.280 mm and an interference pattern is observed on a screen which is a distance 5.50 m from the slits.
Required:
What is the disatnce on the screen between the first order bright fringe for each wavelength?
Answer:
λ1 = 0.0129m = 1.29cm
λ2 = 0.00923m = 0.92 cm
Explanation:
To find the distance between the first order bright fringe and the central peak, can be calculated by using the following formula:
[tex]y_m=\frac{m\lambda D}{d}[/tex] (1)
m: order of the bright fringe = 1
λ: wavelength of the light = 660 nm, 470 nm
D: distance from the screen = 5.50 m
d: distance between slits = 0.280mm = 0.280 *10^⁻3 m
ym: height of the m-th fringe
You replace the values of the variables in the equation (1) for each wavelength:
For λ = 660 nm = 660*10^-9 m
[tex]y_1=\frac{(1)(660*10^{-9}m)(5.50m)}{0.280*10^{-3}m}=0.0129m=1.29cm[/tex]
For λ = 470 nm = 470*10^-9 m
[tex]y_1=\frac{(1)(470*10^{-9}m)(5.50m)}{0.280*10^{-3}m}=0.00923m=0.92cm[/tex]

Aparticlewhosemassis2.0kgmovesinthexyplanewithaconstantspeedof3.0m/s along the direction r = i + j . What is its angular momentum (in kg · m2/s) relative to the point (0, 5.0) meters?
Answer:
[tex]\vec{L}=-30\frac{kgm^2}{s}\hat{k}[/tex]
Explanation:
In order to calculate the angular momentum of the particle you use the following formula:
[tex]\vec{L}=\vec{r}\ X\ \vec{p}[/tex] (1)
r is the position vector respect to the point (0 , 5.0), that is:
r = 0m i + 5.0m j (2)
p is the linear momentum vector and it is given by:
[tex]\vec{p}=m\vec{v}=(2.0kg)(3.0m/s)(\hat{i+\hat{j}})=6\frac{kgm}{s}(\hat{i}+\hat{j})[/tex] (3)
the direction of p comes from the fat that the particle is moving along the i + j direction.
Then, you use the results of (2) and (3) in the equation (1) and solve for L:
[tex]\vec{L}=-30\frac{kgm^2}{s}\hat{k}[/tex]
The angular momentum is -30 kgm^2/s ^k
Astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson steps into an elevator on the 29th floor of a skyscraper. For some odd reason, there is a scale on the floor of the elevator. Neil, whose mass is about 115 kg, decides to step on the scale and presses the button for a lower floor. The elevator starts traveling downwards with a constant acceleration of 1.5 m/s2 for 6.0 seconds, and then travels at a constant velocity for 6.0 seconds. Finally, the elevator has an upward acceleration of 1.5 m/s2 for 6.0 seconds as it comes to a stop.
A. If each floor is approximately 4 m tall, which floor does the elevator stop at?
B. If the mass of the elevator is 1,200 kg, what is the maximum tension of the elevator cable?
Answer:
A. Final Floor = 15.5 = 15 (Considering downward portion of elevator)
B. T = 14859.5 N = 14.89 KN
Explanation:
A.
First we calculate distance covered by the elevator during downward motion. Downward motion consists of two parts. First one is uniformly accelerated. For that part we use 2nd equation of motion:
s₁ = Vi t + (0.5)at²
where,
s₁ = distance covered during accelerated downward motion = ?
Vi = initial speed = 0 m/s (since elevator is initially at rest)
t = time taken = 6 s
a = acceleration = 1.5 m/s²
Therefore,
s₁ = (0 m/s)(6 s) + (0.5)(1.5 m/s²)(6 s)²
s₁ = 4.5 m
also we find the final velocity using 1st equation of motion:
Vf = Vi + at
Vf = 0 m/s + (1.5 m/s²)(6 s)
Vf = 9 m/s
Now, the second part of downward motion is with constant velocity. So:
s₂ = vt
where,
s₂ = distance covered during constant speed downward motion = ?
v = Vf = 9 m/s
t = 6 s
Therefore,
s₂ = (9 m/s)(6 s)
s₂ = 54 m
Now for distance covered during upward motion is given by the 2nd equation of motion. Since the values of acceleration and time are same. Therefore, it will be equal in magnitude to s₁:
s₃ = s₁ = 4.5 m
Therefore, the total distance covered by elevator is given by following equation:
s = s₁ + s₂ - s₃ (Downward motion taken positive)
s = 4.5 m + 54 m - 4.5 m
s = 54 m
Therefore, net motion of the elevator was 54 m downwards.
So the final floor will be:
Final Floor = Initial Floor - Distance Covered/Length of a floor
Final Floor = 29 - 54 m/4m
Final Floor = 15.5 = 15 (Considering the downward portion or floor of elevator)
B.
The maximum tension will occur during the upward accelerated motion. It is given by the formula:
T = m(g + a)
where,
T = Max. Tension in Cable = ?
m = total mass of person and elevator = 115 kg + 1200 kg = 1315 kg
g = 9.8 m/s²
a = acceleration = 1.5 m/s²
Therefore,
T = (1315 kg)(9.8 m/s² + 1.5 m/s²)
T = 14859.5 N = 14.89 KN

Two carts undergo an inelastic collision where they stick together. Cart A has an initial velocity v0, and the second cart B is initially at rest. After the collision, it is observed that the ratio of the final kinetic energy system to its initial kinetic energy is KfK0= 1/6. Determine the ratio of the carts' masses, mBmA. (Assume the track is frictionless.)
Answer:
Explanation:
Initial kinetic energy of the system = 1/2 mA v0²
If Vf be the final velocity of both the carts
applying conservation of momentum
final velocity
Vf = mAvo / ( mA +mB)
kinetic energy ( final ) = 1/2 (mA +mB)mA²vo² / ( mA +mB)²
= mA²vo² / 2( mA +mB)
Given 1/2 mA v0² / mA²vo² / 2( mA +mB) = 6
mA v0² x ( mA +mB) / mA²vo² = 6
( mA +mB) / mA = 6
mA + mB = 6 mA
5 mA = mB
mB / mA = 5 .

A 2 kg car moving towards the right at 4 m/s collides head on with an 8 kg car moving towards the left at 2 m/s, and they stick together. After the collision, the velocity of the combined bodies is:_____________.
a) 2.4 m/s towards the left.
b) 2.4 m/s towards the right.
c) 0.8 m/s towards the left.
d) 0
e) 0.8 m/s towards the right.
Answer:
correct answer is c
v = -0.8 m / s
Explanation:
This is a problem of quantity of movement, for this we must define a system formed by the two cars, so that the forces during the collision are internal and therefore the quantity of movement is conserved
initial
p₀ = m₁ v₁ - m₂ v₂
final
= (m₁ + m₂) v
We have taken the direction to the right as positive
p₀ =p_{f}
m₁ v₁ - m₂ v₂ = (m₁ + m₂) v
v = (m₁ v₁ - m₂ v₂) / (m₁ + m₂)
we calculate
v = (2 4 - 8 2) / (2 + 8)
v = (8 -16) / 10
v = -0.8 m / s
the negative sign indicates that the set is moving to the left
correct answer is c

Suppose the demand for air travel decreases (as illustrated in the graph below). A decrease in demand _____ the equilibrium price for air travel and _____ the equilibrium quantity for air travel. decreases, decreases increases, increases decreases, increases
Answer:
decreases, decreases
Explanation:
A decrease in the demand will create a fall in equilibrium prices and the quantity supplied will also decrease. As the equilibrium prices in the market are the price in which the quantity demanded equals to quantity supplied. If the demand for the air decreases then the quantity of the air travel will also decrease and thus when the supply and demand change so do the changes associated with the equilibrium prices.02

Question: The circular handle of a faucet is attached to a rod that opens and closes a valve when the handle is turned. If the rod has a diameter of 1cm and the IMA of the machine is 6, what is the radius of the handle?
Answer:
Radius of the handle = 3 cm = 0.03 m
Explanation:
Mechanical Accuracy, MA = (Radius of the handle)/(Radius of the rod).......(1)
Diameter of the rod = 1 cm
Radius of the rod = Diameter/2
Radius of the rod = 1/2
Radius of the rod = 0.5 cm
Mechanical Accuracy of the machine, MA = 6
Substitute the values into equation (1)
6 = (Radius of the handle)/0.5
Radius of the handle = 6 * 0.5
Radius of the handle = 3 cm
The Radius of the handle is = 3 cm = 0.03 m
Calculation of the radius of the handle:Since
Mechanical Accuracy, MA = (Radius of the handle)/(Radius of the rod)
Here,
Diameter of the rod = 1 cm
We know that
The radius of the rod = Diameter/2
So,
Radius of the rod = 1/2
So,
Radius of the rod = 0.5 cm
Now
Mechanical Accuracy of the machine, MA = 6
Now
6 = (Radius of the handle)/0.5
Radius of the handle = 6 * 0.5
Radius of the handle = 3 cm

a. What is the longest wavelength for which there will be destructive interference at point Q?
b. What is the longest wavelength for which there will be constructive interference at point Q?
Answer:
a. 200 m
b. 100 m
Explanation:
Solution:-
- We will first draw three points marked A,B and Q from left most to right most.
- We are told that the antennas at A and B radiate in phase. This means the radio-waves emitted by each antenna are synchronous in terms of ( frequency and wavelength ).
- We will denote the common wavelength of coherent sources of radio-waves ( A and B ) with λ.
- The relation between the wavelength ( λ ) and the path difference between the source and observation point ( Q ) for the case of destructive interference is:
AQ - BQ = n*λ/2
Where,
n: The order of wavelength
AQ: The distance between antenna A and point Q
BQ: The distance between antenna B and point Q
- The point Q is positioned ( 100 + 50 ) m away from antenna A and 50 m from antenna B. Hence,
150 - 50 = n*λ/2
- To determine the longest wavelength ( λ ) to meet destructively at point Q with the given path difference. The order of wavelength ( n ) must be minimum ( 1 ). Therefore,
100 = λ/2
λ = 200 m .... Answer

If a cart of 8 kg mass has a force of 16 newtons exerted on it, what is its acceleration?
Answer:
Explanation:
From Newton's 2nd Law,
F = m×a
Where F is Force
m is mass
a is acceleration
Hence a= F/m
a= 16/8= 2m/s2
A solid exerts a force of 500 N. Calculate the pressure exerted to the surface where area
of contact is 2000 cm2.
Answer:
2500 N/m²
Explanation:
Pressure: This can be defined as the force acting normally on a surface per unit area.
The expression for pressure is give as
P = F/A...................... Equation 1
Where P = pressure (N/m²), F = force (N), A = Contact area (m²)
Given: F = 500 N, A = 2000 cm² = (2000/10000) m = 0.2 m.
Substitute into equation 1
P = 500/0.2
P = 2500 N/m²
Hence the pressure exerted to the surface is 2500 N/m²
