Answer:

281.6 K

Explanation:

The speed of sound in an ideal gas is given by c = √(γKT/m).

From the question speed of sound in Ne, c₁ = 2c₂ speed of sound in Kr

c₁ = √(γKT₁/m₁) and c₂ = √(γKT₂/m₂)

So  √(γKT₁/m₁)  = 2√(γKT₂/m₂) where T₁, m₁ and T₂, m₂ are the temperatures and atomic masses of Neon and Krypton respectively.

So, √(T₁/m₁)  = 2√(T₂/m₂)

(T₁/m₁)  = 4(T₂/m₂) (squaring both sides)

T₁ = 4(T₂m₁/m₂)

Given that m₁ = 20.2 u , m₂ = 83.8 u, T₂ = 292 K

T₁ = 4(292 × 20.2/83.8) K = 23593.6/83.8 = 281.55 K ≅ 281.6 K

Light from a lamp is shining on a surface. how can you increase the intensity of the light on the surface?
vlada-n [284]
The intensity of a light in a surface follows the inverse square law formula which can be mathematically expressed as,
                         I = k/d²
where I is intensity, d is distance, and k is the proportionality constant. For us to increase the intensity, we should lower the distance from the source to the surface.

A uniform meterstick of mass 0.20 kg is pivoted at the 40 cm mark. where should one hang a mass of 0.50 kg to balance the stick?
Tcecarenko [31]
The weight of the meterstick is:
W=mg=0.20 kg \cdot 9.81 m/s^2 = 1.97 N
and this weight is applied at the center of mass of the meterstick, so at x=0.50 m, therefore at a distance 
d_1 = 0.50 m - 0.40 m=0.10 m
from the pivot.
The torque generated by the weight of the meterstick around the pivot is:
M_w = W d_1 = (1.97 N)(0.10 m)=0.20 Nm

To keep the system in equilibrium, the mass of 0.50 kg must generate an equal torque with opposite direction of rotation, so it must be located at a distance d2 somewhere between x=0 and x=0.40 m. The magnitude of the torque should be the same, 0.20 Nm, and so we have:
(mg) d_2 = 0.20 Nm
from which we find the value of d2:
d_2 =  \frac{0.20 Nm}{mg}= \frac{0.20 Nm}{(0.5 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)}=0.04 m

So, the mass should be put at x=-0.04 m from the pivot, therefore at the x=36 cm mark.

A heavy stone of mass m is hung from the ceiling by a thin 8.25-g wire that is 65.0 cm long. When you gently pluck the upper end
Triss [41]

Answer: m= 35.6 kg

Explanation:

For finding the mass of the stone we have the formula

v= \sqrt{\frac{Tension}{Linear. Mass. density} }

Here, Tension= m*g = m*9.81

and linear mass density= \frac{8.25 g}{65 cm}

Linear mass density= \frac{8.25*10^-3}{65*10^-2}

Linear mass density= 0.0127 kg/m

Velocity= 2*\frac{l}{t}

Velocity= 2 * \frac{65*10^-2}{7.84}

Velocity= 165.8 m/s

So putting all these values in equation we get

v= \sqrt{\frac{Tension}{Linear. Mass. density} }

165.8= \sqrt{\frac{m*9.81}{0.0127} }

Solving we get

m= 35.58 kg

or m= 35.6 kg
