While scuba diving, you have injured yourself and must signal the boat on the surface for help. As you always do when diving, you have five laser pointers with you, each emitting light of a different color: red, orange, yellow, green, and blue. When you shine the yellow light up toward the boat, the beam makes such a small angle with the surface of the water that all the light is reflected back into the water.

Required:
a. If you are not able to move closer to the boat, which color or colors of light might you try?
b. Are these other lights likely to be successful in penetrating the surface of the water?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. Red and Orange

b. Yes, they are

Explanation:

a. This is because, since the yellow light is reflected back into the water, it undergoes total internal reflection and its wavelength in water is not long enough to allow it penetrate the water surface. Since the wavelength decreases from left to right, both the green and blue light have shorter wavelength than the yellow light, so they get reflected back. The red and orange lights are more likely to penetrate since they have longer wavelengths than the yellow light.

b. This is because the red and orange light have longer wavelengths and are thus more likely to penetrate the water surface and not get reflected back.

What is f if you have an object 2.0 m from the concave mirror, and the image is 4.0 m from the mirror?

Answers

Answer:

the f is 1.3 m

Explanation:

Given that

An object 2.0m is from the concave mirror

And, the image is 4.0m from the mirror

We need to find out the f

So,

u = -2 m

v = -4 m

1 ÷ f = 1 ÷ v + 1 ÷ u

= (-1 ÷ 4) + (-1 ÷ 2)

= -3 ÷4

f = -4 ÷ 3

= |1.3| m

Hence, the f is 1.3 m

A coil of 27 turns is in the shape of an ellipse having a major axis of 12.0 cm and a minor axis of 9.00 cm. The coil rotates at 57rpm in a region in which the Earth's magnetic field is 74.0 microT. What is the maximum voltage induced in the coil if the axis of rotation of the coil is along its major axis and this axis of rotation is aligned perpendicular to the Earth's magnetic field

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Emf induced e = nBAω sinωt where n is no of turns , B is magnetic field, A is area of the coil ω is angular frequency of rotation .

maximum emf =  nBAω

Given n = 27 , B = 74 x 10⁻⁶ T , A = .12 m x .09 m = 108 x 10⁻⁴ m²

ω = 2π x 57/60 = 5.966 rad/s .

Putting the values

maximum emf  = 27 x 74 x 10⁻⁶ T x 108 x 10⁻⁴ m² x 5.966 rad/s .

= 1.29 x 10⁻⁴ V  .

In a cloud chamber experiment, a proton enters a uniform 0.260 T magnetic field directed perpendicular to its motion. You measure the proton's path on a photograph and find that it follows a circular arc of radius 6.42 cm.

Required:
How fast was the proton moving?

Answers

Answer:

the proton speed of the proton was 1.6 × 10⁶ m/s

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Radius r = 6.42 cm = 0.0642 m

magnetic field B = 0.260 T

we know that; charge of proton q = 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

And mass of proton m = 1.672 × 10⁻²⁷ kg

we know that; Magnetic Force F = qvBsinθ

where q is the charge of proton, v is velocity, B is the magnetic field and θ is  angle ( 90° )

Also the Centripetal force experienced by the particle is;

F = mv² / r

where r is radius, m is mass of proton and v is velocity

hence;

qvBsinθ = mv² / r

we solve for v

rqvBsinθ = mv²

divide both sides by mv

rqvBsinθ / mv = mv² / mv

rqBsinθ / m = v

so we substitute

v = [ 0.0642 m × (1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C) × 0.260 T × sin(90°) ] /  1.67 × 10⁻²⁷ kg

v = 2.6740584 × 10⁻²¹ / 1.672 × 10⁻²⁷

v = 1.6 × 10⁶ m/s

Therefore, the proton speed of the proton was 1.6 × 10⁶ m/s

A student decides to give his bicycle a tune up.

If the back wheel has a radius of 33.0 cm and moment of inertia of 1200 kg cm^2, what is the tangential velocity of the rim of the back wheel in m/s

Answers

Answer:

[tex]V=9.2565m/s[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Force [tex]F = 34 N[/tex]  

Time [tex]t = 0.6 s[/tex]

Length of pedal [tex]l_p=16.5cm \approx0.165m[/tex]

Radius of wheel [tex]r = 33 cm = 0.33 m[/tex]

Moment of inertia, [tex]I = 1200 kgcm2 = 0.12 kg.m2[/tex]

Generally the equation for Torque on pedal [tex]\mu[/tex] is mathematically given by

[tex]\mu=F*L\\\mu=34*0.165[/tex]

[tex]\mu=5.61N.m[/tex]

Generally the equation for  angular acceleration [tex]\alpha[/tex] is mathematically given by

 [tex]\alpha=\frac{\mu}{l}[/tex]

 [tex]\alpha=\frac{5.61}{0.12}[/tex]

 [tex]\alpha=46.75[/tex]

Therefore Angular speed is \omega

[tex]\omega=\alpha*t[/tex]

[tex]\omega=(46.75)*(0.6)[/tex]

[tex]\omega=28.05rad/s[/tex]

Generally the equation for  Tangential velocity V is mathematically given by

[tex]V=r\omega[/tex]

[tex]V=(0.33)(28.05)[/tex]

[tex]V=9.2565m/s[/tex]

A standard parallel plate capacitor is connected to a battery and is given enough time to charge fully. After it is fully charged, the capacitor is disconnected from the battery. After that, prankster Bob comes along and pulls the plates further apart from each other, doubling the distance d between the plates. How do the following quantities change? The choices are: quadruple, double, stay the same, halve, or quarter.
a) Capacitance
b) Charge on the capacitor
c) Voltage across the capacitor
d) Electric field within the capacitor
e) Energy stored in the capacitor
f) Does Bob have to do work in order to pull the plates apart? (Yes or no, and a brief explanation)
g) Are parts (e) and (f) consistent, given that the battery was disconnected?

Answers

Answer:

a) capacitance is doubled., b)  Q = cte, c) oltage doubling the distance doubles, d)    ΔE =0, e)  U = Q² / 2C, f) W>0

Explanation:

he capacitance of a condensate is

          C =[tex]\frac{ Q}{ \Delta V} =\epsilon_o \frac{A}{d}[/tex]

let's use this expression to answer the question

a) Capacitance.

Without distance, the capacitance is doubled.

Answer: Half

b) The charge.

As the battery is disconnected, no more electrons reach the capacitor, so the charge remains the same

           Q = cte

c) the voltage

          ΔV = E d = ([tex](\frac{Q}{\epsilon_o A}) \ d[/tex]

so the voltage doubling the distance doubles

d) The electric field between parallel plates is constant

           E = Q / A eo

           E =0

e) The stored energy is described by the expression

          U = Q² / 2C

as capacitance decreases and discant increases, stored energy increases

f) The work to separate the positive charge, that the force must be in the same direction as the electric force

g) when the battery is disconnected the energy in the capacitor remains constant

You are riding your bicycle down the street at a speed of 14 m/s. Your bicycle frame has a mass of 6.6 kg, and each of its two wheels has mass 2.2 kg and radius 0.35 m. Each wheel can be thought of as a hollow hoop (assuming that the rim has much larger mass than the spokes). What is the total kinetic energy of the bicycle (in Joules), taking into account both the translational and rotational motion

Answers

Answer:

1078 Joules

Explanation:

The computation of the total kinetic energy of the bicycle is shown below:

Given that

mass of bicycle's frame (m) = 6.6 kg

mass of each wheel (M) = 2.2 kg

radius of each wheel (r) = 0.35 m

And, the linear speed (v) = 14 ms

Now

As we know that

Angular velocity (ω) = v ÷ r

= 140 ÷ .35

= 40 rads

Total kinetic energy = translational kinetic energy + rotational kinetic energy

= (1 ÷2 × m  × v^2) + (2 × 1 ÷ 2×I × ω^2)

= (0.5 × 6.6 × [14]^2) + (M × r2 × ω^2)

= 646.8 + (2.2 × 0.35 × 0.35 × [40]^2)

= 646.8 + 431.2

= 1078 Joules

An ice-making machine inside a refrigerator operates in a Carnot cycle. It takes heat from liquid water at 0.0 degrees Celsius and rejects heat to a room at a temperature of 20.6 degrees Celsius. Suppose that liquid water with a mass of 82.1 kg at 0.0 degrees Celsius is converted to ice at the same temperature. Take the heat of fusion for water to be Lf=3.34×105 J/kg.
A. How much heat |QH| is rejected to the room?
B. How much energy E must be supplied to the device?

Answers

Answer:

A. Q = 2.74 x 10⁷ J = 27.4 MJ

B. E = 3.91 x 10⁸ J = 391 MJ

Explanation:

A.

Heat rejected can be found as follows:

[tex]Q = mL[/tex]

where,

Q = Heat rejected = ?

m = mass = 82.1 kg

L = Latent Heat of fusion = 334000 J/kg

Therefore,

[tex]Q = (82.1\ kg)(334000\ J/kg)[/tex]

Q = 2.74 x 10⁷ J = 27.4 MJ

B.

First, we will calculate the efficiency of the Carnot Cycle as follows:

[tex]Efficiency = 1-\frac{T_1}{T_2}[/tex]

where,

T₁ = Heat intake temperature = 0°C + 273 = 273 k

T₂ = Heat rejection temperature = 20.6°C + 273 = 293.6 k

Therefore,

[tex]Efficiency = 1 - \frac{273\ k}{293.6\ k} \\\\Effciency = 0.07[/tex]

Therefore, the energy input required is:

[tex]Efficiency = \frac{Q}{E}\\\\E = \frac{Q}{Efficiency} = \frac{2.74\ x\ 10^7\ J}{0.07}[/tex]

E = 3.91 x 10⁸ J = 391 MJ

A body of m = 6.8kg is launched with a speed of 7.5 m / s towards the top of an inclined plane of 15 ° with respect to the horizontal. in the absence of friction, what displacement does it make before reversing the direction of motion?

Answers

Answer:

d = 11.1 m

Explanation:

Since the inclined plane is frictionless, this is just a simple application of the conservation law of energy:

[tex] \frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2} = mgh[/tex]

Let d be the displacement along the inclined plane. Note that the height h in terms of d and the angle is as follows:

[tex] \sin(15) = \frac{h}{d} \\ or \: h = d \sin(15) [/tex]

Plugging this into the energy conservation equation and cancelling m, we get

[tex] {v}^{2} = 2gd \sin(15)[/tex]

Solving for d,

[tex]d = \frac{ {v}^{2} }{2g \sin(15) } = \frac{ {(7.5 \: \frac{m}{s}) }^{2} }{2(9.8 \: \frac{m}{ {s}^{2} })(0.259)} \\ = 11.1 \: m[/tex]
