Answer:
3.67°
Explanation: Given that λ=640nm , m = 1
Considering the slit separation
d = 1cm/1000
= 1.000×10^-3cm
= 1.000×10-5m
We then have
Sinθ = mλ/d
Sinθ= (1×640×10^-9)/1.000×10-5m
Sinθ = 0.064
θ= sin-1 0.064
θ= 3.669°
= 3.67°

What are (a) the length of the rope, (b) the speed of the waves on the rope, and (c) the mass of the rope? (d) If the rope oscillates in a third-harmonic standing wave pattern, what will be the period of oscillation?
Complete question is;
A rope, under a tension of 153 N and fixed at both ends, oscillates in a second harmonic standing wave pattern. The displacement of the rope is given by
y = (0.15 m) sin[πx/3] sin[12π t].
where x = 0 at one end of the rope, x is in meters, and t is in seconds. What are (a) the length of the rope, (b) the speed of the waves on the rope, and (c)the mass of the rope? (d) If the rope oscillates in a third - harmonic standing wave pattern, what will be the period of oscillation?
Answer:
A) Length of rope = 4 m
B) v = 24 m/s
C) m = 1.0625 kg
D) T = 0.11 s
Explanation:
We are given;
T = 153 N
y = (0.15 m) sin[πx/3] sin[12πt]
Comparing this displacement equation with general waveform equation, we have;
k = 2π/λ = π/2 rad/m
ω = 2πf = 12π rad/s
Since, 2π/λ = π/2
Thus,wavelength; λ = 4 m
Since, 2πf = 12π
Frequency;f = 6 Hz
A) We are told the rope oscillates in a second-harmonic standing wave pattern. So, we will use the equation;
λ = 2L/n
Since second harmonic, n = 2 and λ = L = 4 m
Length of rope = 4 m
B) speed is given by the equation;
v = fλ = 6 × 4
v = 24 m/s
C) To calculate the mass, we will use;
v = √T/μ
Where μ = mass(m)/4
Thus;
v = √(T/(m/4))
Making m the subject;
m = 4T/v²
m = (4 × 153)/24²
m = 1.0625 kg
D) Now, the rope oscillates in a third harmonic.
So n = 3.
Using the formula f = 1/T = nv/2L
T = 2L/nv
T = (2 × 4)/(3 × 24)
T = 0.11 s
The square armature coil of an alternating current generator has 200 turns and is 20.0 cm on side. When it rotates at 3600 rpm, its peak output voltage is 120 V.
A) What is the frequency of the output voltage?
B) What is the strength of the magnetic field in which the coil is turning?
Answer:
A) 60 Hz
B) 0.04 T
Explanation:
Given that.
Number of turns, N = 200
Length of the side, l = 20 cm = 0.2 m
Speed if rotation, w = 3600 rpm
Voltage, V = 120 V
First, we try to convert the speed from rpm to rad/s
3600 * (2π/60)
3600 * 0.10473
3600 rpm = 377 rad/s
Now, we use that as our w, speed of rotation
Frequency of output, f =
w/2π
f = 377 / 6.284
f = 59.99 Hz or approximately, 60 Hz.
B
Strength of the magnetic field in which the coil is turning
E• = NABw
Where, A = l² = 0.2² = 0.04, on substituting the values to the equation, we have
120 = 200 * 0.04 * 377 * B
120
Making B subject of formula,
B = 120/ 3016
B = 0.04 T..
The frequency of the output voltage is 60 Hz and the strength of the magnetic field is 0.04 T

Question 5 of 10
Heat is being transferred through currents within a liquid. When will this heat
transfer mostly end?
O A. When the substance changes state and becomes a gas
O B. When the entire liquid is a single temperature
O C. When the substance is very hot on top and cold beneath
O D. When the particles stop bumping into each other
SUBMIT
Answer:
When the entire liquid is a single temperature
Explanation:
When a liquid is heated, a convection current is set up. Convection is the movement of
fluid particles in response to a temperature gradient.
When you start heating a liquid, the particles near the base of the heating vessel increase in temperature, become less dense and rise upwards while the denser particles move downwards. This convection current will continue until an equilibrium temperature is obtained throughout the liquid.

Answer:
E = -8.23 10⁻¹⁷ N / C
Explanation:
In the Bohr model, the electric potential for the ground state corresponding to the Bohr orbit is
E = k q₁ q₂ / r²
in this case
q₁ is the charge of the proton and q₂ the charge of the electron
E = - k e² / a₀²
let's calculate
E = - 9 10⁹ (1.6 10⁻¹⁹)² / (0.529 10⁻¹⁰)²

result of the collision is
A. 2mv to the right.
B. 2my to the left.
C. my to the right.
D. my to the left.
Answer:
C. mv to the right
Explanation:
momentum of thr particle=m1v1
momentum of the wall=m2v2
m1v1+ m2v2 =m1u1+ m2u2 since the wall doesn't move it's momentum is zero.
m1v1 =m1u1
therefore change in that occurs as result of the collision is C. mv to the right
The total change in momentum of the particle of mass m that collides elastically with a vertical rigid wall perpendicularly from the left with velocity v is 2mv to the left (option B).
The total change in momentum is given by:
[tex] \Delta p = p_{f} - p_{i} [/tex]
In the initial state, the particle is moving to the right until it collides with the rigid wall, so:
[tex] p_{i} = mv [/tex]
In the final state, the particle moves backward after the collision with the wall, so:
[tex] p_{f} = -mv [/tex]
The minus sign is because it is moving in the negative x-direction (to the left)
Hence, the total change in momentum is:
[tex] \Delta p = -mv - mv = -2mv [/tex]
Therefore, the total change in momentum of the particle is 2mv to the left (option B).

A ball is thrown upward from a height of 432 feet above the ground, with an initial velocity of 96 feet per second. From physics it is known that the velocity at time t is v (t )equals 96 minus 32 t feet per second. a) Find s(t), the function giving the height of the ball at time t. b) How long will the ball take to reach the ground? c) How high will the ball go?
Answer;
A)S(t)=96t-16t² +432
B)it will take 9 seconds for the ball to reach the ground.
C)864feet
Explanation:
We were given an initial height of 432 feet.
And v(t)= 96-32t
A) we are to Find s(t), the function giving the height of the ball at time t
The position, or heigth, is the integrative of the velocity. So
S(t)= ∫(96-32)dt
S(t)=96t-16t² +K
S(t)=96t-16t² +432
In which the constant of integration K is the initial height, so K= 432
b) we need to know how long will the ball take to reach the ground
This is t when S(t)= 0
S(t)=96t-16t² +432
-16t² +96t +432=0
This is quadratic equation, if you solve using factorization method we have
t= -3 or t= 9
Therefore, , t is the instant of time and it must be a positive value.
So it will take 9 seconds for the ball to reach the ground.
C)V=s/t

The charger for your electronic devices is a transformer. Suppose a 60 Hz outlet voltage of 120 V needs to be reduced to a device voltage of 3.0 V. The side of the transformer attached to the electronic device has 45 turns of wire.
How many turns are on the side that plugs into the outlet?
Answer:
N₁ = 1800 turns
So, the side of the transformer that plugs into the outlet has 1800 turns.
Explanation:
The transformer turns ratio is given by the following equation:
V₁/V₂ = N₁/N₂
where,
V₁ = Voltage of outlet = 120 V
V₂ = Device Voltage = 3 V
N₁ = No. of turns on outlet side = ?
N₂ = No. of turns on side of device = 45

120 V/3 V = N₁/45
N₁ = (40)(45)
N₁ = 1800 turns
So, the side of the transformer that plugs into the outlet has 1800 turns.
If you weigh 685 N on the earth, what would be your weight on the surface of a neutron star that has the same mass as our sun and a diameter of 25.0 km
CHECK COMPLETE QUESTION BELOW
you weigh 685 NN on the earth, what would be your weight on the surface of a neutron star that has the same mass as our sun and a diameter of 25.0 kmkm ? Take the mass of the sun to be msmsm_s = 1.99×1030 kgkg , the gravitational constant to be GGG = 6.67×10−11 N⋅m2/kg2N⋅m2/kg2 , and the free-fall acceleration at the earth's surface to be ggg = 9.8 m/s2m/s2 .
Answer:
5.94×10^15N
Explanation:
the weight on the surface of a neutron star can be calculated by below expresion
W= Mg
W= weight of the person
m= mass of the person
g=gravity of the neutron star
But we need the mass which can be calculated as
m= W/g
m= 685/9.81
m= 69.83kg
From the gravitational law equation we have
F= GMm/r^2
G= gravitational constant = 6.67x10⁻¹¹
M= mass of the neutron star = 1.99x10³⁰ kg
r = distance between the person and the surface
Then r can be calculated as = 25/2 = 12.5 km , we divide by two because it's the distance between the person and the surface
g=gravity of the neutron star can be calculated as
g=(6.67×10^-11 ×1.99×10^30)/(12.5×10^3)^2
= 8.50×10^13m/s^2
Then from W= mg we can find our weight
W= 8.50×10^13m/s^2 × 69.83
= 5.94×10^15N
Therefore, weight on the surface of a neutron star is 5.94×10^15N
A person of 70 kg standing on an un-deformable horizontal surface. She bends her knees and jumps up from rest, achieving a launching speed of 1.7 m/s. The launching process lasts 0.1 second. Calculate the average force exerted by the surface on the person during the launch.
Answer:
1190 N
Explanation:
Force: This can be defined as the product of mass and velocity. The unit of force is Newton(N).
From the question,
F = ma................. Equation 1
Where F = average force, m = mass, a = acceleration.
But,
a = (v-u)/t................ Equation 2
Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t = time.
Substitute equation 2 into equation 1
F = m(v-u)/t.............. Equation 3
Given: m = 70 kg, v = 1.7 m/s, u = 0 m/s (from rest), t = 0.1 s.
Substitute into equation 3
F = 70(1.7-0)/0.1
F = 1190 N.
A student wants to create a 6.0V DC battery from a 1.5V DC battery. Can this be done using a transformer alone
Answer:
Therefore, we need an invert, and a rectifier, along with the transformer to do the job.
Explanation:
A transformer, alone, can not be used to convert a DC voltage to another DC voltage. If we apply a DC voltage to the primary coil of the transformer, it will act as short circuit due to low resistance. It will cause overflow of current through winding, resulting in overheating pf the transformer.
Hence, the transformer only take AC voltage as an input, and converts it to another AC voltage. So, the output voltage of a transformer is also AC voltage.
So, in order to convert a 6 V DC to 1.5 V DC we need an inverter to convert 6 V DC to AC, then a step down transformer to convert it to 1.5 V AC, and finally a rectifier to convert 1.5 V AC to 1.5 V DC.
Therefore, we need an invert, and a rectifier, along with the transformer to do the job.

To a person swimming 0.80 m below the water surface of a swimming pool, the diving board directly overhead appears to be a height of 5.20 m above the swimmer. What is the actual height of the diving board above the water surface
Answer:
The actual height is 3.308 m.
Explanation:
The person is swimming below the water surface at distance = 0.80 m
The height of the diving board appears at a distance or height = 5.20 m
Now we have to find the actual distance of the diving board from the water surface.
We know the refractive index of water is 1.33.
Therefore, the actual height = (Distance that appears – distance below the water surface) / Refractive index.
The actual height = ( 5.20 - 0.80 ) / 1.33 = 3.308 m

At what frequency should a 200-turn, flat coil of cross sectional area of 300 cm2 be rotated in a uniform 30-mT magnetic field to have a maximum value of the induced emf equal to 8.0 V
Answer:
The frequency of the coil is 7.07 Hz
Explanation:
Given;
number of turns of the coil, 200 turn
cross sectional area of the coil, A = 300 cm² = 0.03 m²
magnitude of the magnetic field, B = 30 mT = 0.03 T
Maximum value of the induced emf, E = 8 V
The maximum induced emf in the coil is given by;
E = NBAω
Where;
ω is angular frequency = 2πf
E = NBA(2πf)
f = E / 2πNBA
f = (8) / (2π x 200 x 0.03 x 0.03)
f = 7.07 Hz
Therefore, the frequency of the coil is 7.07 Hz
You slip a wrench over a bolt. Taking the origin at the bolt, the other end of the wrench is at x=18cm, y=5.5cm. You apply a force F? =88i^?23j^ to the end of the wrench. What is the torque on the bolt?
Answer:
The torque on the wrench is 4.188 Nm
Explanation:
Let r = xi + yj where is the distance of the applied force to the origin.
Since x = 18 cm = 0.18 cm and y = 5.5 cm = 0.055 cm,
r = 0.18i + 0.055j
The applied force f = 88i - 23j
The torque τ = r × F
So, τ = r × F = (0.18i + 0.055j) × (88i - 23j) = 0.18i × 88i + 0.18i × -23j + 0.055j × 88i + 0.055j × -23j
= (0.18 × 88)i × i + (0.18 × -23)i × j + (0.055 × 88)j × i + (0.055 × -22)j × j
= (0.18 × 88) × 0 + (0.18 × -23) × k + (0.055 × 88) × (-k) + (0.055 × -22) × 0 since i × i = 0, j × j = 0, i × j = k and j × i = -k
= 0 - 4.14k + 0.0484(-k) + 0
= -4.14k - 0.0484k
= -4.1884k Nm
≅ -4.188k Nm
So, the torque on the wrench is 4.188 Nm

[tex]\frac{F_i}{A_i} = \frac{F_o}{A_o} \\\\A_o= \frac{F_o A_i}{F_i} \\\\A_o = \frac{19600*0.001}{500} \\\\A_o = 0.0392 \ m^2\\\\A_o = 392 \ cm^2[/tex]
Therefore, the cross-sectional area of the larger piston is 392 cm²

Question 2.
In the US, lengths are often measured in inches, feet, yards and miles. Let's do
some conversions. The definition of the inch is: 1 inch = 25.4 mm, exactly. A foot is
12 inches and a mile is 5280 ft, exactly. A centimetre is exactly 0.01 m or 10 mm.
Sammy is 5 feet and 5.3 inches tall.
a). What is Sammy's height in Inches? (answer to 3 significant figures)
(3)
b). What is Sammy's height in Feet? (answer to 3 significant figures)
what is Sammy's hight in feet according to this statement
Explanation:
1 inch = 25.4 mm
1 foot = 12 inches
1 mile = 5260 feet
1 cm = 0.01 m or 10 mm
Now Sammy's height is 5 feet and 5.3 inches.
(a) We need to find Sammy's height in inches.
Since, 1 foot = 12 inches
5 feet = 5 × 12 inches = 60 inches
Now, 5 feet and 5.3 inches = 60 inches + 5.3 inches = 65.3 inches
Sammy's height is 65.3 inches.
(b) We need to find Sammy's height in feet.
Since, 1 foot = 12 inches
[tex]1\ \text{inch}=\dfrac{1}{12}\ \text{feet}[/tex]
So,
[tex]5.3\ \text{inch}=\dfrac{5.3}{12}\ \text{feet}=0.4416\ \text{feet}[/tex]
5 feet and 5.3 inches = 5 feet + 0.4416 feet = 5.44 feet
Sammy's height is 5.44 feet.
In the lab, you shoot an electron towards the south. As it moves through a magnetic field, you observe the electron curving upward toward the roof of the lab. You deduce that the magnetic field must be pointing:_______.
a. to the west.
b. upward.
c. to the north.
d. to the east.
e. downward.
Answer:
a. to the west.
Explanation:
An electron in a magnetic field always experience a force that tends to change its direction of motion through the magnetic field. According to Lorentz left hand rule (which is the opposite of Lorentz right hand rule for a positive charge), the left hand is used to represent the motion of an electron in a magnetic field. Hold out the left hand with the fingers held out parallel to the palm, and the thumb held at right angle to the other fingers. If the thumb represents the motion of the electron though the field, and the other fingers represent the direction of the field, then the palm will push in the direction of the force on the particle.
In this case, if we point the thumb (which shows the direction we shot the electron) to the south (towards your body), with the palm (shows the direction of the force) facing up to the roof, then the fingers (the direction of the field) will point west.
