A sample contains 20 kg of radioactive material. The decay constant of the material is 0.179 per second. If the amount of time that has passed
is 300 seconds, how much of the of the original material is still radioactive? Show all work

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

There are [tex]9.537\times 10^{-23}[/tex] kilograms of radioactive material after 300 seconds.

Explanation:

From Physics we know that radioactive materials decay at exponential rate, whose differential equation is:

[tex]\frac{dm}{dt} = -\lambda\cdot m[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]\frac{dm}{dt}[/tex] - Rate of change of the mass of the radioactive material, measured in kilograms per second.

[tex]m[/tex] - Current mass of the radioactive material, measured in kilograms.

[tex]\lambda[/tex] - Decay constant, measured in [tex]\frac{1}{s}[/tex].

The solution of the differential equation is:

[tex]m(t) = m_{o}\cdot e^{-\lambda\cdot t}[/tex] (2)

Where:

[tex]m_{o}[/tex] - Initial mass of the radioactive material, measured in kilograms.

[tex]t[/tex] - Time, measured in seconds.

If we know that [tex]m_{o} = 20\,kg[/tex], [tex]\lambda = 0.179\,\frac{1}{s}[/tex] and [tex]t = 300\,s[/tex], then the initial mass of the radioactive material is:

[tex]m(t) = (20\,kg)\cdot e^{-\left(0.179\,\frac{1}{s} \right)\cdot (300\,s)}[/tex]

[tex]m(t) \approx 9.537\times 10^{-23}\,kg[/tex]

There are [tex]9.537\times 10^{-23}[/tex] kilograms of radioactive material after 300 seconds.

Think about the force that causes a planet to orbit the Sun and the direction of this
force. How does a puck swung by a string on the table relate to a planet orbiting the
Sun? What forces are acting on the puck and what forces are acting on the planet

Answers

Answer:

1) For the swung puck tied to the string that has a mass m₁ and having another mass m₂ attached to the string that passes through a hole in the table, such that m₂ > m₁

The swung puck rotating on the table is kept in the circular motion on the table by the centripetal force acting towards the center of its rotation along the string, which is given by the amount the weight of m₂ exceeds m₁, in the same way a planet moving around the Sun is kept in its orbit by the gravitational attraction between the planet and the Sun.

2) i) The forces acting on the puck are;

a) The centripetal force in the string, acting inward, towards the center of rotation provided by the weight of m₂

b) The centrifugal force of the puck, acting outward, tending to continue its motion in a straight line

ii) The forces acting on the planet are;

a) The force of gravitational attraction between the planet and the Sun, acting towards the Sun, such that, the planet revolves around the Sun

b) The centrifugal force of the planet, acting outward, tending to move in a linear or straight path

Explanation:

Forces on Puck  Swung

Centrifugal Force (Outwards from  puck swung  )

Tension( Towards the center)

Forces on the Planet

Centrifugal Force (Outwards from  Planets  )

Gravitational Force ( Inwards towards Sun )

Let us suppose that the

The  puck swung is connected with a center at a distance of radius  r

so it is revolving around the point  just like planets revolve around the Sun.

The Centrifugal  Force and Gravitational Force  causes the planetary motion around the sun.

The Centrifugal force is an outward force  and is observed  from the accelerated frame of reference , In our case Planet and  puck swung are    the accelerated frame of references.

The Gravitational Force between the Sun and the planets  (directed towards Sun) is balanced by Centrifugal Force.

Let us consider that the string of  puck swung has negligible mass

So the Tension which is directed towards the center will provide the  force to counterbalance the centrifugal  force acting on puck swung.

So Tension will act towards the center in case of puck swung and centrifugal force will act outwards.

A person weighing 600N runs up a flight of stairs. It takes the person 10s to get to the top. They are 6m higher at the top of the stairs. How much power was used?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Power = 360W[/tex]

Explanation:

Given

[tex]Force = 600N[/tex]

[tex]Time = 10s[/tex]

[tex]Height = 6m[/tex]

Required

Determine the power used

First, we need to calculate the work done to climb the stairs.

[tex]Word = Force * Distance[/tex]

In this case, the distance represents the height of the stairs.

So:

[tex]Work = 600N * 6m[/tex]

[tex]Work = 3600J[/tex]

Next, we calculate the power using:

[tex]Power = \frac{Work}{Time}[/tex]

Substitute values for Work and Time

[tex]Power = \frac{3600J}{10s}[/tex]

[tex]Power = 360W[/tex]

Hence, the power used by the person is 360 watts

¿Cuál será la potencia o consumo en watt de una ampolleta conectada a una red de energía eléctrica doméstica monofásica de 220 volt, si la corriente que circula por el circuito de la ampolleta es de 0,45 ampere?.

Answers

Answer:

La potencia o consumo en watt de una ampolleta conectada a una red de energía eléctrica doméstica monofásica de 220 volt, si la corriente que circula por el circuito de la ampolleta es de 0.45 ampere, es 99 Watts.

Explanation:

Potencia es la velocidad o rapidez con la que se consume la energía. Siendo la energía la capacidad que tiene un mecanismo o dispositivo eléctrico cualquiera para realizar un trabajo, también se puede definir potencia como la energía desarrollada o consumida en una unidad de tiempo. Su unidad de medida es el Watt.

La ley de Watt establece que la potencia eléctrica P suministrada por un elemento de circuito, es directamente proporcional al producto entre la tensión de la alimentación V del circuito y la intensidad de corriente I que circula por él.  

Matemáticamente, la ley de Watt se expresa:

P = V.I

donde V es medida en Volt e I es medida en Ampere.

En este caso:

V=220 voltI= 0.45 ampere

Reemplazando:

P= 220 volt* 0.45 ampere

P= 99 Watts

La potencia o consumo en watt de una ampolleta conectada a una red de energía eléctrica doméstica monofásica de 220 volt, si la corriente que circula por el circuito de la ampolleta es de 0.45 ampere, es 99 Watts.

An electron with a total energy of 19GeV travels through an accelerator tube with proper length 7.7km. a) What is the length of the tube in the electron's frame? E= m b) How long does it take in the frame of the electron? E= s c) How long does it take in the frame of the tube? T= s Note: the rest energy of an electron is: 0=0.51MeV.

Answers

Answer:

a) Approximately 0.2066 m

b) 0.00002568443 s

c) Approximately 188.87 s

Explanation:

a) The total energy of the electron = 190GeV

The rest energy of the electron = 0.51 MeV

[tex]\dfrac{19 \ GeV}{0.51 \ MeV} = 37254.902 = \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1 + \dfrac{u^2}{c^2} } }[/tex]

[tex]\left ( 1 - \dfrac{u^2}{c^2} \right ) = \dfrac{1}{37254.902^2} } }[/tex]

[tex]\left ( 1 - \dfrac{1}{37254.902^2} } } \right ) = \dfrac{u^2}{c^2}[/tex]

u = √(299792458² × (1 - 1/37254.902²)) = 299792457.892

β = v/c = 299792457.892/299792458 = 0.99999999964

[tex]\beta = \sqrt{1 - \left ( \dfrac{\Delta x}{\Delta x'} \right )^2}[/tex]

Δx = √(Δx'²×(1 - β²)) = √(7700²×(1 - 0.99999999964²)) ≈ 0.2066 m

The length of the tube in the electron's frame ≈ 0.2066 m

b) The time in the frame of the electron is given as follows;

Δt' = 7700/299792457.892 = 0.00002568443 s

c) The time in the frame of the tube is given as follows;

[tex]\beta = \sqrt{1 - \left ( \dfrac{\Delta t'}{\Delta t} \right )^2}[/tex]

1 - β² = (Δt'/Δt)²

Δt = √(Δt'/(1 - β²)) = √(0.00002568443 /(1 - 0.99999999964²)) ≈ 188.87 s.

A baseball bat strikes a baseball of mass that is at rest, and as a result the baseball files away from the bat. The kinetic energy gained by the
baseball as it leaves the bat is due to the
(A) loss of mass after the ball is hit.
(B) gain in potential energy as the ball rises to the peak of its trajectory
(C) loss of potential energy of the ball as it falls back to the ground
(D) work done by the bat on the ball

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is D

Explanation:

When an object at rest is acted upon by an external force, the motion gained (of the body) will proceed in the direction of the force. This is caused by the workdone by the bat on the ball. The motion gained mentioned earlier is the kinetic energy.

Kinetic energy can be described as the energy in a moving object.

Answer:

(D) work done by the bat on the ball

Explanation:

The principle of work-energy theorem, states that work done by the sum of all the forces acting on an object, is equal to the gain in the kinetic energy of the object.

When the baseball bat strikes the baseball which causes a displacement in the initial position of the baseball, work is said to be done which is equal to the change in the kinetic energy of the baseball.

Thus, The kinetic energy gained by the baseball as it leaves the bat is due to the work done by the bat on the ball.

Why are wildfires getting worse ? Does is have to do with Climate Change ?

Answers

Answer:

There is a logical explanation for that.

Explanation:

Human activities such as lighting campfires and discarding lit cigarettes are responsible for starting fires, hotter weather makes forests drier and more susceptible to burning.

Rising temperatures, a key to climate change, evaporate moisture from the ground, drying out the soil, and making vegetation more flammable. At the same time, winter snowpacks are melting a month earlier, meaning forests are drier for longer periods.

As drought and rising heat continue with rising greenhouse gas emissions, there will be more expected wildfires in the years ahead, especially with the fire seasons getting longer.

A ball weighing 60 N is swinging like a pendulum at the end of a 6.0 m rope. As the
ball swings through its lowest point, its speed is measured at 5.0 m/s. What is the
tension in the rope at this point?

Answers

Answer:

Tension = 60 N

Explanation:

The ball is executing a motion like a pendulum. The lowest point of a pendulum's motion is the mean position, where its potential energy becomes zero and kinetic energy becomes maximum. At this point the rope becomes straight vertical. Hence, the tension in the rope becomes exactly equal to the weight of the object at the lowest point. Also, in this case when the ball swings through the lowest point during its motion like a pendulum, the tension in the rope will become equal to the weight of the ball.

Tension = Weight

Tension = 60 N

Explanation:

a) The minimum force necessary to start moving the box s given by:       

[tex]\Sigma F = 0[/tex]

[tex] F - \mu_{s}N = 0 [/tex]

[tex] F = \mu_{s}mg [/tex]

Where:

F: is the force applied to move the box

μs: is the static coefficient of friction = 0.6          

m: is the mass = 60 kg

g: is the gravity = 9.81 m/s²

[tex] F = 0.6*60 kg*9.81 m/s^{2} = 353.2 N [/tex]

b) The acceleration is:

[tex] F - F_{f} = ma [/tex]

[tex] F - \mu_{k}mg = ma [/tex]

Answers

Answer:

The length of rod A will be greater than the length of rod B

Explanation:

We, know that the formula for final length in linear thermal expansion of a rod is:

L' = L(1 + ∝ΔT)

where,

L' = Final Length

L = Initial Length

∝ = Co-efficient of linear expansion

ΔT = Change in temperature

Since, the rods here have same original length and the temperature difference is same as well. Therefore, the final length will only depend upon the coefficient of linear expansion.

For Rod A:

∝₁ = 12 x 10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹

For Rod B:

∝₂ = β₂/3

where,

β₂ = Coefficient of volumetric expansion for rod B = 24 x 10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹

Therefore,

∝₂ = 24 x 10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹/3

∝₂ = 8 x 10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹

Since,

∝₁ > ∝₂

Therefore,

L₁ > L₂

So, the length of rod A will be greater than the length of rod B
