Answer:
X = 69.1 x 10⁻⁶ m = 69.1 μm
Explanation:
The relationship between the motion of the moveable mirror and the fringe count of the Michelson's Interferometer is given by the following formula:
d = mλ/2
where,
d = distance moved by the mirror = X = ?
m = No. of Fringes counted = 246
λ = wavelength of light entering interferometer = 562 nm = 5.62 x 10⁻⁷ m
Therefore,
X = (246)(5.62 x 10⁻⁷ m)/2
Therefore,
X = 69.1 x 10⁻⁶ m = 69.1 μm
Which type of mass movement is likely to result in considerable property damage, but rarely causes loss of life? a. debris avalanche b. rock fall c. mudflow d. creep
Answer:
The correct answer is D. Creep.
Explanation:
Ground creep is a slow downward movement of a hill or mountain slope without the formation of demolition forms. The decisive factor for this is the continuous flow of movement of the soil.
The main driver of collapse is the movement of the surface layer particles during expansion in a direction perpendicular to the slope, followed by vertical collapse on contraction. The visible effect of the collapsing is the inclination of fences and poles, as well as trees that grow out of the ground towards the slope and have trunks curved vertically, in more extreme cases it may be cracks on the walls of buildings.

A series RCL circuit contains a 65.2-Ω resistor, a 2.26-μF capacitor, and a 2.08-mH inductor. When the frequency is 2400 Hz, what is the power factor of the circuit?
Answer:
The power factor of the circuit is 0.99
Explanation:
Given;
resistance of the resistor, R = 65.2 ohms
capacitance of the capacitor, C = 2.26 μF = 2.26 x 10⁻⁶ F
inductance, L = 2.08 mH = 2.08 x 10⁻³ H
frequency of the AC, f = 2400 Hz
The angular frequency is given by;
ω = 2πf
ω = 2π(2400) = 15081.6 rad/s
The inductive reactance is given by;
XL = ωL
XL = (15081.6 x 2.08 x 10⁻³)
XL = 31.37 ohms
The capacitive reactance is given by;
[tex]X_c = \frac{1}{\omega C} \\\\X_c = \frac{1}{(15081.6)(2.26*10^{-6} )}\\\\X_c = 29.34 \ ohms[/tex]
The phase difference is given by;
[tex]tan\phi = \frac{X_l - X_c}{R}\\\\ tan\phi =\frac{31.37-29.34}{65.2} \\\\tan\phi = 0.0311 \\\\\phi = tan^{-1} (0.0311)\\\\\phi = 1.78^0[/tex]
The power factor is given by;
CosФ = Cos(1.78) = 0.99
Therefore, the power factor of the circuit is 0.99
An airplane is flying at a speed of 200 m/s in level flight at an altitude of 800 m. A package is to be dropped from the airplane to land on a target on the ground. At what horizontal distance away from the target should the package be released so that it lands on the target
Answer:
The
Explanation:
The horizontal distance covered is known as the range expressed as;
R = U√2H/g
U is the speed = 200m/s
H is the max height = 800m
g is the gravity = 9.8m/s²
R = 200√2(800)/9.8
R = 200√1600/9.8
R = 200√163.27
R = 200(12.78)
R = 2555.54
Hence the package should be released at a distance of 2555.54m
In a double-slit experiment, the second-order bright fringe is observed at an angle of 0.61°. If the slit separation is 0.11 mm, then what is the wavelength of the light?
Answer:
[tex]5.86\times 10^{-7}\ \text{m}[/tex]
Explanation:
d = Slit separation = 0.11 mm
[tex]\theta[/tex] = Angle = [tex]0.61^{\circ}[/tex]
m = Order = 2
[tex]\lambda[/tex] = Wavelength
We have the relation
[tex]d\sin\theta=m\lambda\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\dfrac{d\sin\theta}{m}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\dfrac{0.11\times 10^{-3}\times \sin0.61^{\circ}}{2}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=5.86\times 10^{-7}\ \text{m}[/tex]
The wavelength of the light is [tex]5.86\times 10^{-7}\ \text{m}[/tex].

A television of mass 15 kg sits on a table. The coefficient of static friction
between the table and the television is 0.35. What is the minimum applied
force that will cause the television to slide?
A) 38 N
B) 147 N
C) 51 N
D) 79 N
Answer:
more than 51.45 N
__________________________________________________________
We are given:
Mass of the television = 15 kg
Coefficient of Static friction = 0.35
Minimum force required to move the television:
Normal Force:
We know that the normal force is equal and opposite to the Weight of the television
Weight of the television = Mg
[where m is the mass and g is the acceleration due to gravity]
Weight = 15 * 9.8
Weight = 147 N
Force of Friction:
We are given the coefficient of Friction = 0.35
We know that coefficient of Friction = Force of friction / Normal Force
replacing the variables
0.35 = Force of Friction / 147
Force of Friction = 147 * 0.35 [multiplying both sides by 147]
Force of Friction = 51.45 N
Since a force of 51.45 N is will be applied opposite to the direction of application of Force, the television will only move when we apply more force than 51.45 N

If a car has a centripetal acceleration of 7m/s2 over a radius of 7m. How fast is it going
a. 7 m/s
b 1 m/s
с o m/s
d 49 m/s
Answer:
7 m/s (agrees with answer a in your list)
Explanation:
Recall that the centripetal acceleration is defined by the square of the tangential velocity divided by the radius of the rotational motion:
[tex]a_c=\frac{v_t^2}{R}[/tex]
then the tangential velocity is extracted from here as:
[tex]a_c=\frac{v_t^2}{R} \\v_t^2=a_c * R\\v_t=\sqrt{a_c * R}[/tex]
in our case, this becomes:
[tex]v_t=\sqrt{7*7} = 7 \,\,m/s[/tex]
what is the force of gravitational attraction between a 92 kg student and a 550 g slice of pizza that are 25 cm apart
Answer:
[tex]F = 5.4*10^{-8}\ N[/tex]
Explanation:
Given
Represent the mass of the student with M and the mass of the slice of pizza with m
[tex]M = 92kg[/tex]
[tex]m = 550g[/tex]
[tex]d = 25cm[/tex]
Required
Determine the force of attraction
This is calculated as:
[tex]F = \frac{GMm}{d^2}[/tex]
Where G = gravitational constant
[tex]G = 6.67408 * 10^{-11}\ m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2}[/tex]
Convert both mass to kilogram and distance to metre
[tex]m = 550g[/tex]
[tex]m = 550kg/1000[/tex]
[tex]m = 0.55kg[/tex]
[tex]d = 25cm[/tex]
[tex]d = 25m/100[/tex]
[tex]d = 0.25m[/tex]
Substitute these values in [tex]F = \frac{GMm}{d^2}[/tex]
[tex]F = \frac{6.67408 * 10^{-11} * 92 * 0.55}{0.25^2}[/tex]
[tex]F = \frac{6.67408 * 92 * 0.55* 10^{-11} }{0.25^2}[/tex]
[tex]F = \frac{337.708448* 10^{-11} }{0.0625}[/tex]
[tex]F = 5403.335168* 10^{-11}[/tex]
[tex]F = 5.403335168* 10^3*10^{-11}[/tex]
[tex]F = 5.403335168*10^{3-11}[/tex]
[tex]F = 5.403335168*10^{-8}[/tex]
[tex]F = 5.4*10^{-8}\ N[/tex]

A light truck with manual transmission has a circular brake drum with a diameter of d = 310 millimeters. Each brake pad, which presses against the drum, is s = 306 millimeters long. What central angle is subtended by one of the brake pads? Write your answer in both radians and degrees.
Answer:
113 degrees
1.974 radians
Explanation:
The angle can be calculated using below expression
Angle = arc/r
Where arc= diameter of d = 310 millimeters
r= s = 306 millimeters long.
Since both have the same unit, no need for conversion
Angle = arc/r = 306/(0.5×310 )
= 306/155
= 1.974 radians
Then to find the angle In degrees we have
R x 180/pi = D
Where R= angle in radians= 1.974 radians
1.974 x 180/π
Where π= 22/7
= 113 degrees( approximately)
Therefore, central angle is subtended by one of the brake pads is 1.974 radians

what transition metal has 5 more protons than the halogen found in period 3?
Answer: Titanium (Ti)
Explanation:
First, each element has a unique atomic number Z, that is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus.
The halogen in period 3 is chlorine (Ch)
Chlorine's atomic number is Z = 17, this means that it has 17 protons.
Now we want to find a transition metal that has 5 more protons, then this transition metal has Z = 17 + 5 = 22
Now we can look at the periodic table and find the element with Z = 22, and if this is in the d-block, then this will be a transition metal.
The element with Z = 22 is titanium (Ti)

A hydraulic car jack needs to be designed so it can lift a 2903.57 lb car assuming that a person can exert a force of 24.41 lbs. If the piston the person is pushing on had a radius of 3.26 cm, what should the diameter of the piston be that is used to raise the car?
Answer:
Diameter of the piston would be 0.71 m (71.1 cm)
Explanation:
From the principle of pressure;
[tex]\frac{F_{1} }{A_{1} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{F_{2} }{A_{2} }[/tex]
Let [tex]F_{1}[/tex] = 2903.57 lb, [tex]F_{2}[/tex] = 24.41 lbs, [tex]r_{2}[/tex] = 3.26 cm = 0.0326 m.
[tex]A_{2}[/tex] = [tex]\pi r^{2}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{22}{7}[/tex] x [tex](0.0326)^{2}[/tex]
= 0.00334 [tex]m^{2}[/tex]
So that:
[tex]\frac{2903.57}{A_{1} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{24.41}{0.00334}[/tex]
[tex]A_{1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2903.57*0.00334}{24.41}[/tex]
= 0.3973
[tex]A_{1}[/tex] = 0.4 [tex]m^{2}[/tex]
The radius of the piston can be determined by:
[tex]A_{1}[/tex] = [tex]\pi r^{2}[/tex]
0.3973 = [tex]\frac{22}{7}[/tex] x [tex]r^{2}[/tex]
[tex]r^{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{0.3973*7}{22}[/tex]
= 0.1264
r = [tex]\sqrt{0.1264}[/tex]
= 0.3555
r = 0.36 m
Diameter of the piston = 2 x r
= 2 x 0.3555
= 0.711
Diameter of the piston would be 0.71 m (71.1 cm).

What frequency is received by a person watching an oncoming ambulance moving at 115 km/h and emitting a steady 753 Hz sound from its siren
Answer:
77.6 Hz
Explanation:
What frequency is received by a person watching an oncoming ambulance moving at 115 km/h and emitting a steady 753 Hz sound from its siren.
The given parameters are:
Observer speed = 115 km/h
Source frequency = 753 Hz
Speed of sound = 342 m/s
First convert km/h to m/s
Observer speed = (115 × 1000) / 3600
Observer speed = 31.94 m/s
The frequency received by the person will be:
F = fv / ( V - v )
Where
F = frequency received by the person
f = siren frequency
V = speed of sound
v = speed of the ambulance
Substitute all the parameters into the formula
F = (753 × 31.94) / ( 342 - 31.94 )
F = 24050.82 / 310.06
F = 77.568 Hz
Therefore, the frequency received by a person is approximately 77.6Hz
A container is filled to a depth of 21.0 cm with water. On top of the water floats a 35.0-cm-thick layer of oil with specific gravity 0.600. What is the absolute pressure at the bottom of the container
Answer:
P_abs = 105120.2 N/m²
Explanation:
We are given;
Specific gravity of oil; ρ_oil = 0.6 g/cm³ = 600 kg/m³
Depth of water; h_w = 21 cm = 0.21 m
Depth of oil; h_o = 35 cm = 0.35 m
From tables specific gravity of water is; ρ_w = 1000 kg/m³
Thus, to get the absolute pressure at the bottom of the container, we will use the formula;
P_abs = (ρ_w × g × h_w) + (ρ_oil × g × h_oil) + P_a
Where P_a is atmospheric pressure with a standard value of 1.01 × 10^(5) N/m²
g is gravitational acceleration = 9.81 m/s²
Thus;
P_abs = (1000 × 9.81 × 0.21) + (600 × 9.81 × 0.35) + (1.01 × 10^(5))
P_abs = 105120.2 N/m²

Hypothesis: If the starting height of a sloped racetrack is increased, then the speed at which a toy car travels along the track will ________ because the toy car ____
Answer:
If the starting height of a sloped racetrack is increased, then the speed at which a toy car travels along the track will increase because the toy car will have a greater acceleration.
Explanation:
I hope this helped
Hypothesis: If the starting height of a sloped racetrack is increased, then the speed at which a toy car travels along the track will increase because the toy car gains more potential energy at the higher starting point.
When a toy car moves along a sloped racetrack, it converts its potential energy (due to its height above the ground) into kinetic energy (energy of motion). The higher the starting height of the racetrack, the more potential energy the toy car possesses initially.
As the toy car moves down the sloped track, it will accelerate due to the force of gravity. The potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, and the car's speed increases. According to the law of conservation of energy, the total mechanical energy (sum of potential and kinetic energy) remains constant as long as no external forces, such as friction, act on the car.
Therefore, if the starting height of the racetrack is increased, the toy car will have more potential energy to start with. As it moves down the track, it will convert this increased potential energy into kinetic energy, resulting in a higher speed compared to when it starts from a lower height.

The time constant for RC circuit with the values of R1 and C1 is 5ms. What will be the time constant for a new RC circuit with the values: R2=10R1 and C2 = 0.5C1.
a. 2.5ms
b. 15.5ms
c. 50ms
d. 25ms
e. 15ms
Answer:
d. 25 ms
