Dr. John Paul Stapp was a U.S. Air Force officer who studied the effects of extreme acceleration on the human body. On December 10, 1954, Stapp rode a rocket sled, accelerating from rest to a top speed of 282 m/s (1015 km/h) in 5.2 s and was brought jarringly back to rest in only 1 s. Calculate his (a) magnitude of acceleration in his direction of motion and (b) magnitude of acceleration opposite to his direction of motion. Express each in multiples of g (9.80 m/s2) by taking its ratio to the acceleration of gravity. g g

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

    a = 5.53 g ,   a = -15g

Explanation:

This is an exercise in kinematics.

a) Let's look for the acceleration

         as part of rest v₀ = 0

          v = v₀ + a t

           a = v / t

           a = 282 / 5.2

          a = 54.23 m / s²

in relation to the acceleration of gravity

          a / g = 54.23 / 9.8

          a = 5.53 g

b) let's look at the acceleration to stop

         va = 0

         0 = v₀ -2 a y

         a = vi / y

         a = 282/2 1

         a = 141 m /s²

         a / G = 141 / 9.8

          a = -15g

The color orange has a wavelength of 590 nm. What is the energy of an orange photon? (h = 6.626 x 10^-19, 1 eV = 1.6 x 10^-19 J)

A) 2.81 eV

B) 3.89 eV

C) 2.10 eV

D) 2.78 eV

Answers

The color orange has a wavelength of 590 nm. The energy of an orange photon is approximately 0.337 eV.

The correct answer is option E.

To calculate the energy of a photon, we can use the equation:

E = (hc) / λ

where E is the energy of the photon, h is the Planck's constant (6.626 x [tex]10^-^3^4[/tex]J·s or 6.626 x[tex]10^-^1^9^[/tex] eV·s), c is the speed of light (3.00 x [tex]10^8[/tex] m/s), and λ is the wavelength of the light.

Given that the wavelength of orange light is 590 nm (or 590 x [tex]10^-^9[/tex]m), we can substitute the values into the equation:

E = [(6.626 x[tex]10^-^1^9^[/tex] eV·s) x (3.00 x [tex]10^8[/tex] m/s)] / (590 x[tex]10^-^9[/tex]m)

E = (1.9878 x [tex]10^-^1^0[/tex]eV·m) / (590 x [tex]10^-^9[/tex] m)

E = 3.3695 x [tex]10^-^1[/tex] eV

the magnitude of the electrical force acting between a +2.4x10-8c charge and 1+1.8x10-6 charge that are separated by 1.008m is

Answers

Answer:

3.83×10¯⁴ N

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Charge 1 (q₁) = +2.4x10¯⁸ C

Charge 2 (q₂) = +1.8x10¯⁶ C

Distance apart (r) = 1.008 m

Electrical constant (K) = 9×10⁹ Nm²/C²

Force (F) =?

The magnitude of the electrical force acting between the two charges can be obtained as follow:

F = Kq₁q₂ / r²

F = 9×10⁹ × 2.4x10¯⁸ × 1.8x10¯⁶ / (1.008)²

F = 0.0003888 / 1.016064

F = 3.83×10¯⁴ N

Thus the magnitude of the electrical force acting between the two charges is 3.83×10¯⁴ N

A dog accelerates at 1.50 m/s2 to reach a velocity of 13.5 m/s while covering a distance of 49.3 m. What was his initial velocity?

Answers

Let v be the dog's initial velocity. Then

(13.5 m/s)^2 - v ^2 = 2 (1.50 m/s^2) (49.3 m)

==>   v ^2 = (13.5 m/s)^2 - 2 (1.50 m/s^2) (49.3 m)

==>   v = √((13.5 m/s)^2 - 2 (1.50 m/s^2) (49.3 m))

==>   v5.86 m/s

The use of genetic factors to influence the growth of a plant encompasses manipulating the genetic constituent (gene) of such plant.

For example,

- Increasing use of hybrid crops entails mating two pure bred plants based on a gene of interest responsible for a particular trait, to form a hybrid.

- Altering genes in DNA to create new plants is also a genetic factor as it has to with gene modification.

- developing disease or pest resistant crops means that the genetic make up of such plant has been modified to be resistant to pest/disease.

Find the ratio of speeds of an electron and a negative hydrogen ion (one having an extra electron) accelerated through the same voltage, assuming non-relativistic final speeds. Take the mass of the hydrogen ion to be 6.7 X 10 -27 Kg.

Answers

Answer:

 v₂ /v₁ = 2.3 10⁺²

Explanation:

The energy is conserved so the total potential energy must be transformed into kinetic energy

          K = U

          ½ m v² = q ΔV

          v = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{2q \Delta V}{m} }[/tex]

a) Let's find the speed of the electron

           m = 9.1 10⁻³¹ kg

as they do not indicate the value of the power difference, we will assume that ΔV = 1 V is worth one

           v = [tex]\sqrt{ \frac{2 \ 1.6 \ 10^{-19} \ 1}{9.1 \ 10^{-31}} }[/tex]

           v = [tex]\sqrt {0.3516 \ 10^{12}}[/tex]

           v1 = 0.593 10⁶ m / s

b) the velocity of a hydrogen ion

            M = M_H + m

            M = 1.673 10⁻²⁷ + 9.1 10⁻³¹

            M = 1.67391 10⁻²⁷ kg

            M = 1.67 10⁻²⁷ kg

            v = [tex]\sqrt{ \frac { 2 \ 1.6 \ 10^{-19} \ 1}{1.67 \ 10^{-27}} }[/tex]

             v = [tex]\sqrt{ 1.916167 \ 10^8 }[/tex]

             v₂ = 1.38 10⁴ m / s

the relationship between these speeds is

           v₂ / v₁ = 1.38 10⁴ / 0.593 10⁶

           v₂ /v₁ = 2.3 10⁺²

A light-emitting diode (LED) connected to a 3.0 V power supply emits 440 nm blue light. The current in the LED is 11 mA , and the LED is 51 % efficient at converting electric power input into light power output. How many photons per second does the LED emit?

Answers

Answer:

3.73 * 10^16   photons/sec

Explanation:

power supply = 3.0 V

Emits 440 nm blue light

current in LED = 11 mA

efficiency of LED = 51%

Calculate the number of photons per second the LED will emit

first step : calculate the energy of the Photon

E = hc / λ

   =(  6.62 * 10^-34 * 3 * 10^8 )  / 440 * 10^-9

   = 0.0451 * 10^-17  J

Next :

Number of Photon =( power supply * efficiency * current ) / energy of photon

= ( 3 * 0.51 * 11 * 10^-3 ) / 0.0451 * 10^-17

= 3.73 * 10^16 photons/sec

The momentum of a falling rock is found to be 200 kg m/s. What is the mass of the rock if it falls with a velocity of 5.0 m/s

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 40 \ kilograms}}[/tex]

Explanation:

Momentum is the product of velocity and mass. The formula is:

[tex]p=m*v[/tex]

We know the rock is falling. Its momentum is 200 kilograms meters per second and its velocity is 5 meters per second. Substitute the values into the formula.

[tex]200 \ kg \ m/s = m * 5.0 \ m/s[/tex]

We are solving for m, the mass. We must isolate the variable. It is being multiplied by 5 meters per second. The inverse of multiplication is division, so we divided both sides by 5.0 m/s.

[tex]\frac{200 \ kg \ m/s}{5.0 \ m/s}=\frac{ m* 5.0 \ m/s }{5.0 \ m/s}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{200 \ kg \ m/s}{5.0 \ m/s}=m[/tex]

The units of meters per second (m/s) cancel.

[tex]\frac{200 \ kg}{5.0 } =m[/tex]

[tex]40 \ kg = m[/tex]

The falling rock has a mass of 40 kilograms.

How much thermal energy is added to the air by the drag force?

Answers

Answer:

by the drag force, 2.4004512 × 10⁻⁵ J is added to the air.

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

drag coefficient of Cd = 1.4

speed v = 6.0 m/s

One model expands to a square 1.8 mm on a side

Area A = 1.8 × 1.8 = 3.24 mm² = 3.24 × 10⁻⁶ m²

distance travelled s = 240 mm = 0.24 m

we know that; density of air e = 1.225 kg/m³

Now,

Dragging force F[tex]_D[/tex] = ( Cd × e × v² × A  ) / 2

thermal energy = F[tex]_D[/tex] × s

so

thermal energy = ( 1.4 × 1.225  × (6)² × (3.24 × 10⁻⁶) × 0.24  ) / 2

thermal energy = ( 4.8009024 × 10⁻⁵ ) / 2

thermal energy = 2.4004512 × 10⁻⁵ J

Therefore,  by the drag force, 2.4004512 × 10⁻⁵ J is added to the air.

A rock is thrown from the top of a building 146 m high, with a speed of 14 m/s at an angle 43 degrees above the horizontal. When it hits the ground, what is the magnitude of its velocity (i.e. its speed).

Answers

Answer:

time is 32 s and speed is 304.3 m/s

Explanation:

Height, h = 146 m

speed, u = 14 m/s

Angle, A = 43 degree

Let it hits the ground after time t.

Use second equation of motion

[tex]h = u t +0.5 at^2\\\\- 146 =14 sin 43 t - 4.9 t^2\\\\4.9 t^2 - 9.5 t - 146 =0 \\\\t =\frac{9.5\pm\sqrt {90.25 + 2861.6}}{9.8}\\\\t=\frac{9.5\pm 54.3}{9.8}\\\\t = 32.05 s, - 22.4 s[/tex]

Time cannot be negative so the time is t = 32 s .

The vertical velocity at the time of strike is  

v' =  u sin A - g t

v' = 14 sin 43 - 9.8 x 32 = 9.5 - 313.6 = - 304.1 m/s

horizontal velocity

v'' = 14 cos 43 =10.3 m/s

The resultant velocity at the time of strike is

[tex]v=\sqrt{v'^2 + v''^2}\\\\v = \sqrt{304.1^2 +10.3^2 }\\\\v = 304.3 m/s[/tex]
