Answer:

F = Gm1m2/r^2 where G = 6.67x10^-11, m1 =1300, m2 = 7800, r = 0.23m

F = 6.67x10^-11 *1300*7800/(0.23)^2 = 0.0127852N

Optical tweezers use light from a laser to move single atoms and molecules around. Suppose the intensity of light from the tweez

Zanzabum

(a) $3.3\cdot 10^{-6} Pa$

The radiation pressure exerted by an electromagnetic wave on a surface that totally absorbs the radiation is given by

$p=\frac{I}{c}$

where

I is the intensity of the wave

c is the speed of light

In this problem,

$I=1000 W/m^2$

and substituting $c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s$ , we find the radiation pressure

$p=\frac{1000 W/m^2}{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}=3.3\cdot 10^{-6}Pa$

(b) $4.4\cdot 10^{-8} m/s^2$

Since we know the cross-sectional area of the laser beam:

$A=6.65\cdot 10^{-29}m^2$

starting from the radiation pressure found at point (a), we can calculate the force exerted on a tritium atom:

$F=pa=(3.3\cdot 10^{-6}Pa)(6.65\cdot 10^{-29} m^2)=2.2\cdot 10^{-34}N$

And then, since we know the mass of the atom

$m=5.01\cdot 10^{-27}kg$

we can find the acceleration, by using Newton's second law:

$a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{2.2\cdot 10^{-34} N}{5.01\cdot 10^{-27} kg}=4.4\cdot 10^{-8} m/s^2$

Assuming the starting height is 0.0 m, calculate the potential energy of the cart after it has been elevated to a height of 0.5

Bogdan [553]

The potential energy is most often referred to as the "energy at rest" and is dependent on the elevation of an object. This can be calculated through the equation,

E = mgh

where E is the potential energy, m is the mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height. In this item, we are not given with the mass of the cart so we assume it to be m. The force is therefore,

E = m(9.8 m/s²)(0.5 m) = 4.9m

Hence, the potential energy is equal to 4.9m.

A 1500 W radiant heater is constructed to operate at 115 V. (a) What will be the current in the heater? (b) What is the resistan

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

a) I = 13.04 A

b) R = 8.82 ohms

c) 1291.87 kilocalories are generated an hour.

Explanation:

let P be the power of the heater, V be the voltage of the heater, I be the current of the heater, R be the resistance.

a) we know that:

P = I×V

I = P/V

= (1500)/(115)

= 13.04 A

Therefore, the current of the heater is 13.04 A

b) we now have voltage and current, according to Ohm's law:

R = V/I

= (115)/(13.04)

= 8.82 ohms

Therefore, the resistance of the heating coil is 8.82 ohms.

c) the number of kilocalories generated in one hour by the heater is just the energy the heater produces in one hour which is given by:

E = P×t

= (1500)(1×60×60)

= 5400000 J

since 1 calorie = 4.81 J

1 kilocalorie = 0.001 calories

E = 5400000/4.18 ≈ 1291866.029 calories ≈1291.87 kilocalories

Therefore, 1291.87 kilocalories are produced/generated in one hour.
