Suppose you want to make a scale model of a hydrogen atom. You choose, for the nucleus, a small ball bearing with a radius of 1.

5 mm. The radius of the hydrogen atom is 0.529 Ã 10â10 m and the radius of the nucleus is 1.2 Ã 10â15 m. (A) What would be the radius (m) of the model? (B) Suppose that now you want to make a scale model of the solar system using the same ball bearing as in part (a) to represent the sun. How far from it (mm) would you place a sphere representing the earth? (Center to center distance please.) (See the inside cover of your textbook for data.) (C) What would be the radius (mm) of the sphere representing the earth in part (b)?

Answer:

A)  x _electron = 0.66 10² m , B)   x _Eart = 1.13 10² m , C)  d_sphere = 1.37 10⁻² mm

Explanation:

A) Let's use a ball for the nucleus, the electron is at a farther distance the sphere for the electron must be at a distance of

Let's use proportions rule

                x_ electron = 0.529 10⁻¹⁰ /1.2 10⁻¹⁵ 1.5

               x _electron = 0.66 10⁵ mm = 0.66 10² m

B) the radii of the Earth and the sun are

               R_{E} = 6.37 10⁶ m

                tex]R_{Sum}[/tex] = 6.96 10⁸ m

                Distance = 1.5 10¹¹ m

                x_Earth = 1.5 10¹¹ / 6.96 10⁸  1.5

                x _Eart = 1.13 10² m

C) The radius of a sphere that represents the earth, if the sphere that represents the sun is 1.5 mm, let's use another rule of proportions

            d_sphere = 1.5 / 6.96 10⁸  6.37 10⁶

            d_sphere = 1.37 10⁻² mm

On a hypothetical scale X The ice point is 40° and steam point is 120°.
arlik [135]

Answer:

The reading of Y is -10°.

Explanation:

For scale X, the ice point is 40° and steam point is 120°.

Difference between the two extremes for scales X = 120 - 40 = 80

For scale X, the ice point and steam points are -30° and 130° respectively.

Difference between the two extremes for scales X = 130 - (-30) = 160

Comparing both scales:

One unit of scale X = x

One unit of scale Y = y

Scale X has 80 divisions while scale Y has 160

80x = 160y

x = 2y

50° in scale X = 10x + ice point in X scale

10 divisions in Y scale = 20y

Reading of Y scale = ice point of Y + 20y

= -30° + 20°

= -10°

A lab technician uses laser light with a wavelength of 670 nm to test a diffraction grating. When the grating is 40.0 cm from th
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

N = 221.4 lines / mm

Explanation:

Given:

- The wavelength of the source λ = 670 nm

- Distance of the grating from screen B = 40.0 cm

- The distance of first bright fringe from central order P = 6.0 cm

Find:

How many lines per millimeter does this grating have?

Solution:

- The derived results from Young's experiment that relates the order of bright fringes about the central order is given by:

                                          sin (Q) = n*λ*N

Where,

n is the order number 0, 1 , 2, 3 , ....

λ  is the wavelength of the light source

Q is the angle of sweep respective fringe from central order

N is the number of lines/mm the grating has

- We will first compute the length along which the light travels for the first bright fringe:

                                            L^2 = P^2 + B^2

                                            L^2 = 40^2 + 6^2

                                            L^2 = 1636

                                            L = 40.45 cm  

- Now calculate the sin(Q) that the fringe makes with the central order:

                                            sin (Q) = P / L

                                            sin (Q) = 6 / 40.45

- Now we will use the derived results:

                                           N = sin(Q) / n*λ

  Where, n = 1 - First order

  Plug values in                N = (6 / 40.45) / (670 *10^-6)

                                          N = 221.4 lines / mm

A block of mass m1 = 3.5 kg moves with velocity v1 = 6.3 m/s on a frictionless surface. it collides with block of mass m2 = 1.7
maxonik [38]
First, let's find the speed v_i of the two blocks m1 and m2 sticked together after the collision.
We can use the conservation of momentum to solve this part. Initially, block 2 is stationary, so only block 1 has momentum different from zero, and it is:
p_i = m_1 v_1
After the collision, the two blocks stick together and so now they have mass m_1 +m_2 and they are moving with speed v_i:
p_f = (m_1 + m_2)v_i
For conservation of momentum
p_i=p_f
So we can write
m_1 v_1 = (m_1 +m_2)v_i
From which we find
v_i =  \frac{m_1 v_1}{m_1+m_2}= \frac{(3.5 kg)(6.3 m/s)}{3.5 kg+1.7 kg}=4.2 m/s

The two blocks enter the rough path with this velocity, then they are decelerated because of the frictional force \mu (m_1+m_2)g. The work done by the frictional force to stop the two blocks is
\mu (m_1+m_2)g  d
where d is the distance covered by the two blocks before stopping.
The initial kinetic energy of the two blocks together, just before entering the rough path, is
\frac{1}{2} (m_1+m_2)v_i^2
When the two blocks stop, all this kinetic energy is lost, because their velocity becomes zero; for the work-energy theorem, the loss in kinetic energy must be equal to the work done by the frictional force:
\frac{1}{2} (m_1+m_2)v_i^2 =\mu (m_1+m_2)g  d
From which we can find the value of the coefficient of kinetic friction:
\mu =  \frac{v_i^2}{2gd}= \frac{(4.2 m/s)^2}{2(9.81 m/s^2)(1.85 m)}=0.49
