Answer:1.63 m

Explanation:

Given

mass of block m=0.5 kg

inclination \theta =30^{\circ}

Amount of work done W=4 J

block slides a distance s along the Plane

Work done =change in Potential Energy

Increase in height of block is s\sin \theta

Change in Potential Energy =mg(\sin \theta -0)

\Delta P.E.=0.5\times 9.8\times s\sin 30

4=0.5\times 9.8\times s\sin 30

s=\frac{4}{2.45}      

s=1.63 m

Answer: Volume of Freon = 12.23.10^{3}L

Explanation: First, the temperatures have to be in the same unit, so all the tmeperatures is transformed into Kelvin:

T₁ = 192K

T₂ = \frac{5}{9}. (F - 32)+273.15

T₂ = \frac{5}{9}. (- 65 - 32)+273.15

T₂ = 219.26K.

Second, BTU is an unit of energy. It can be transformed into Joules by the relation 1BTU = 1055.06J.

Q = 1055.06 . 46.9 = 49482.314J

The letter Q represents Heat and is calculated as Q = m.Cp.ΔT, where:

m is mass of the element;

Cp is the heat capacity specific for each element;

ΔT is the difference between the final and initial temperature;

Third, it will be needed the properties of the Freon:

Freon (CF2Cl2) = 120.91g/mol; Cp = 74J/mol.K; ρ = 1.49kg/m³

Fourth, we calculate the mass of Freon necessary for the remove of 46.9BTU of energy from the system:

Q = m.Cp.ΔT

m=\frac{Q}{c(T-T_{0} )}

m = \frac{49482.314}{74(219.26-192)}

m = 18228.214g or m=18.228Kg

Fifth, using the density of Freon, Volume can be found

ρ = \frac{m}{V}

V = m / ρ

V = 18.228 / 1.49

V = 12.23m³

As SI for density is Kg/m³, the volume found is in m³.

Cubic meters is related to Liters as the following: 1m³=1000l.

So, volume of Freon = 12.23.10^{3}L

The volume of Freon needed is 12.23.10^{3}L.

Consider a double-slit with a distance between the slits of 0.04 mm and slit width of 0.01 mm. Suppose the screen is a distance
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

The distance between the places where the intensity is zero due to the double slit effect is 15 mm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance between the slits = 0.04 mm

Width = 0.01 mm

Distance between the slits and screen = 1 m

Wavelength = 600 nm

We need to calculate the distance between the places where the intensity is zero due to the double slit effect

For constructive fringe

First minima from center

x_{1}=\dfrac{\lambda D}{2d}

Second minima from center

x_{2}=\dfrac{3\lambda D}{2d}

The distance between the places where the intensity is zero due to the double slit effect

\Delta x_{d}=x_{2}-x_{1}

\Delta x_{d}=\dfrac{3\lambda D}{2d}-\dfrac{\lambda D}{2d}

\Delta x_{d}=\dfrac{\lambda D}{d}

Put the value into the formula

\Delta x_{d}=\dfrac{600\times10^{-9}\times1}{0.04\times10^{-3}}

\Delta x_{d}=0.015 =15\times10^{-3}\ m

\Delta x_{d}=15\ mm

Hence, The distance between the places where the intensity is zero due to the double slit effect is 15 mm.

you are hiking along a river and see a tall tree on thhe opposite bank. You measure the angle of elevation of the top of the tre
Sidana [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the height of the tree is y and the distance of tree from point B is x.

According to the diagram

tan61 = \frac{y}{x}

x = 0.55 y ..... (1)

tan49.5 = \frac{y}{50+x}

(50 + 0.55y) 1.17 = y ..... from equation (1)

58.5 + 0.644 y = y

0.356 y = 58.5

y = 164.3 ft
