Answer:

267.07 km

Explanation:

We have given the radius of the earth = 6378.1 km

In 2014 the difference between the magnetic north pole and geographical north pole is 2.40°

2.40°=2.40\times \frac{\pi }{180}=0.041866 radian

We know that linear distance is given by S=R\Theta =6378.1\times 0.041866=267.07km

So we have to travel 267.07 km in going from magnetic north pole to geographic north pole

Evaporation of sweat requires energy and thus take excess heat away from the body. Some of the water that you drink may eventual
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

The amount of heat required is H_t =  1.37 *10^{6} \ J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of water is m_w  =  20 \ ounce = 20 * 28.3495 = 5.7 *10^2 g

The temperature of the water before drinking is T_w  =  3.8 ^oC

The temperature of the body is T_b  =  36.6^oC

Generally the amount of heat required to move the water from its former temperature to the body temperature is

H=  m_w  *  c_w * \Delta T

Here c_w is the specific heat of water with value c_w = 4.18 J/g^oC

So

H=   5.7 *10^2 * 4.18 * (36.6 - 3.8)

=> H= 7.8 *10^{4} \  J

Generally the no of mole of sweat present mass of water is

n = \frac{m_w}{Z_s}

Here Z_w is the molar mass of sweat with value

Z_w =  18.015 g/mol

=> n = \frac{5.7 *10^2}{18.015}

=> n = 31.6 \  moles

Generally the heat required to vaporize the number of moles of the sweat is mathematically represented as

H_v  =  n  *  L_v

Here L_v is the latent heat of vaporization with value L_v  = 7 *10^{3} J/mol

=> H_v  =  31.6 * 7 *10^{3}

=> H_v  = 1.29 *10^{6} \  J

Generally the overall amount of heat energy required is

H_t =  H +  H_v

=> H_t =  7.8 *10^{4} +  1.29 *10^{6}

=> H_t =  1.37 *10^{6} \ J

A measuring microscope is used to examine the interference pattern. It is found that the average distance between the centers of
diamong [38]

Answer:

 2n t = m λ₀ ,    R = 0.240 mm

Explanation:

The interference by regency in thin films uses two rays mainly the one reflected on the surface and the one reflected on the inside of the film.

The ray that is reflected in the upper part of the film has a phase change of 180º since the ray stops from a medium with a low refractive index to one with a higher regrading index,

-This phase change is the introduction of a λ/2 change

-The ray passing through the film has a change in wavelength due to the refractive index of the medium

          λ₀ = λ / n

Therefore Taking into account this fact the destructive interference expression introduces an integer phase change, then the extra distance 2t is

        2 t = (m’+ ½ + ½) λ₀ / n

        2t = (m’+1) λ₀ / n

         m = m’+ 1

        2n t = m λ₀

        With   m = 0, 1, 2, ...

Where t is the thickness of the film, n the refractive index of the medium, λ the wavelength

The thickness of a hair is the thickness of the film t

           2R = t

             R = t / 2

             R = 0480/2

              R = 0.240 mm

Imagine you derive the following expression by analyzing the physics of a particular system: v2=v20+2ax. The problem requires so
lisabon 2012 [21]

As per kinematics equation we are given that

v^2 = v_o^2 + 2ax

now we are given that

a = 2.55 m/s^2

v_0 = 21.8 m/s

v = 0

now we need to find x

from above equation we have

0^2 = 21.8^2 + 2(2.55)x

0 = 475.24 + 5.1 x

x = 93.2 m

so it will cover a distance of 93.2 m

maxonik [38]

Answer:

kg m/s

Explanation:

e = Charge = C

V = Voltage = \dfrac{N}{C}m

c = Speed of light = m/s

Momentum is given by

\dfrac{MeV}{c}=\dfrac{e\times V}{c}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{MeV}{c}=\dfrac{C\times \dfrac{N}{C}\times m}{m/s}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{MeV}{c}=Ns\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{MeV}{c}=kg\times \dfrac{m}{s}\times s\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{MeV}{c}=kg\cdot m/s

The unit of MeV/c in SI fundamental units is kg m/s
