Solution:

Make an Observation - An indoor plant in a dark room withers faster than the same plant in a room with ample sunlight.

Ask a question- Why do certain indoor plants die faster based on where they are placed in the house?

State a hypothesis- Sunlight is probably essential for plants to grow and live.

Run an experiment- Get two potted plants. Cover one with black paper. Place both plants outside in sunlight. See what happens to each plant after one week.

Analyze the results-The plant in the pot with black paper withered. The other plant was healthy.

Communicate the results to others - Plants need sunlight to make food so they can live.

The newly formed xenon nucleus is left in an excited state. Thus, when it decays to a state of lower energy a gamma ray is emitt

nevsk [136]

Answer:3.87*10^-4

Explanation:

What is the decrease in mass, delta mass Xe , of the xenon nucleus as a result of this deca

We have been given the wavelength of the gamma ray, find the frequency using c = freq*wavelength.

C=f*lambda

3*10^8=f*3.44*10^-12

F=0.87*10^20 hz

Then with the frequency, find the energy emitted using equation

E=hf E = freq*Plank's constant

E=.87*10^20*6.62*10^-34

E=575.94*10^(-16)

With this energy, convert into MeV from joules.

With the energy in MeV, use E=mc^2 using c^2 = 931.5 MeV/u.

Plugging and computing all necessary numbers gives you

3.87*10^-4 u.

A mover pushes a 255 kg piano

faust18 [17]

Answer:

$0.495 ms^{-2}$

Explanation:

According to the newton's second law of motion we can apply F=ma hear

Force = mass * acceleration

(assume the piano is moving left side )

←F = ma

$F_(pull)+ F_(push)= M*a\\77.5 + 48.7 = 255 *a\\a = 0.495 ms^{-2}$

In 2014, the Rosetta space probe reached the comet Churyumov Gerasimenko. Although the comet's core is actually far from spheric

Viktor [21]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to gravity according to the Newtonian definitions. From finding this value we will use the linear motion kinematic equations to find the time. Our values are

Comet mass $M = 1.0*10^{13} kg$

Radius $r = 1.6km = 1600 m$

Rock was dropped from a height 'h' from surface = 1m

The relation for acceleration due to gravity of a body of mass 'm' with radius 'r' is

$g = \frac{GM}{R^2}$

Where G means gravitational universal constant and M the mass of the planet

$g = \frac{(6.67408*10^{-11})(1*10^{13})}{1600^2}$

$g = 2.607*10^{-4} m/s^2$

Now calculate the value of the time

$h = \frac{1}{2} gt^2$

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}$

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2(1)}{2.607*10^{-4}}}$

$t = 87.58s$

The time taken for the rock to reach the surface is t = 87.58s

Answer:

$v_{oy}=11.29\ m/s$

$y=7.39\ m$

Explanation:

<u>Projectile Motion</u>

When an object is launched near the Earth's surface forming an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal plane, it describes a well-known path called a parabola. The only force acting (neglecting the effects of the wind) is the gravity, which acts on the vertical axis.

The heigh of an object can be computed as

$\displaystyle y=y_o+V_{oy}t-\frac{gt^2}{2}$

Where $y_o$ is the initial height above the ground level, $v_{oy}$ is the vertical component of the initial velocity and t is the time

The y-component of the speed is

$v_y=v_{oy}-gt$

1) We'll find the vertical component of the initial speed since we have not enough data to compute the magnitude of $v_o$

The object will reach the maximum height when $v_y=0$ . It allows us to compute the time to reach that point

$v_{oy}-gt_m=0$

Solving for $t_m$

$\displaystyle t_m=\frac{v_{oy}}{g}$

Thus, the maximum heigh is

$\displaystyle y_m=y_o+\frac{v_{oy}^2}{2g}$

We know this value is 8 meters

$\displaystyle y_o+\frac{v_{oy}^2}{2g}=8$

Solving for $v_{oy}$

$\displaystyle v_{oy}=\sqrt{2g(8-y_o)}$

Replacing the known values

$\displaystyle v_{oy}=\sqrt{2(9.8)(8-1.5)}$

$\displaystyle v_{oy}=11.29\ m/s$

2) We know at t=1.505 sec the ball is above Julie's head, we can compute

$\displaystyle y=y_o+V_{oy}t-\frac{gt^2}{2}$

$\displaystyle y=1.5+(11.29)(1.505)-\frac{9.8(1.505)^2}{2}$

$\displaystyle y=1.5\ m+16,991\ m-11.098\ m$

$y=7.39\ m$

Two oppositely charged but otherwise identical conducting plates of area 2.50 square centimeters are separated by a dielectric 1

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

A). σ = 3.823 x $10^{-5}$ $C^{2}$ /N- $m^{2}$

B). $\sigma ^{'}=2.76\times 10^{-5}$ C/ $m^{2}$

C). $U=10.322$ J

Explanation:

A). We know magnitude of charge per unit area for a conducting plate is given by

$\sigma =k.\varepsilon _{0}.E$

where, E is resultant electric field = 1.2 x $10^{6}$ V/m

$\varepsilon _{0}$ is permittivity of free space = 8.85 x $10^{-12}$ $C^{2}$ /N- $m^{2}$

k is dielectric constant = 3.6

∴ $\sigma =k.\varepsilon _{0}.E$

= 3.6 x 8.85 x $10^{-12}$ x 1.2 x $10^{6}$

= 3.823 x $10^{-5}$ $C^{2}$ /N- $m^{2}$

B).Now we know that the magnitude of charge per unit area on the surface of the dielectric plate is given by

$\sigma ^{'}=\sigma\left ( 1-\frac{1}{k} \right )$

$\sigma ^{'}=3.823\times 10^{-5}\left ( 1-\frac{1}{3.6} \right )$

$\sigma ^{'}=2.76\times 10^{-5}$ C/ $m^{2}$

C).

Area of the plate, A = 2.5 $cm^{2}$

= 2.5 x $10^{-4}$ $m^{2}$

diameter of the plate, d = 1.8 mm

= 1800 m

∴ Total energy stored in the capacitor

$U=\frac{1}{2}k\varepsilon _{0}E^{2}Ad$

$U=\frac{1}{2}\times 3.6\times8.85 \times10^{-12}\times\left ( 1.2\times 10^{6} \right ) ^{2}\times 2.5\times 10^{-4}\times 1800$

$U=10.322$ J
