An astronaut is traveling in a space vehicle that has a speed of 0.480c relative to Earth. The astronaut measures his pulse rate at 78.5 per minute. Signals generated by the astronaut's pulse are radioed to Earth when the vehicle is moving perpendicularly to a line that connects the vehicle with an Earth observer. (Due to vehicle's path there will be no Doppler shift in the signal.)
(a) What pulse rate does the Earth-based observer measure? beats/min
(b) What would be the pulse rate if the speed of the space vehicle were increased to 0.940c?
beats/min

Answers

Answer 1

Explanation:

The heart rate of the astronaut is 78.5 beats per minute, which means that the time between heart beats is 0.0127 min. This will be the time t measured by the moving observer. The time t' measured by the stationary Earth-based observer is given by

[tex]t' = \dfrac{t}{\sqrt{1 - \left(\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}\right)}}[/tex]

a) If the astronaut is moving at 0.480c, the time t' is

[tex]t' = \dfrac{0.0127\:\text{min}}{\sqrt{1 - \left(\dfrac{0.2304c^2}{c^2}\right)}}[/tex]

[tex]\:\:\:\:=0.0145\:\text{min}[/tex]

This means that time between his heart beats as measured by Earth-based observer is 0.0145 min, which is equivalent to 69.1 beats per minute.

b) At v = 0.940c, the time t' is

[tex]t' = \dfrac{0.0127\:\text{min}}{\sqrt{1 - \left(\dfrac{0.8836c^2}{c^2}\right)}}[/tex]

[tex]\:\:\:\:=0.0372\:\text{min}[/tex]

So at this speed, the astronaut's heart rate is 1/(0.0372 min) or 26.9 beats per minute.

Two long straight wires are suspended vertically. The wires are connected in series, and a current from a battery is maintained in them. What happens to the wires? What happens if the battery is replaced by an a-c source?

Answers

Answer:

(i) When a battery is connected inseries to two long parallel wires, the currents in the two wires will be in opposite directions. Due to which a force of repulsion will be acting between them and they are moving further apart.

(ii) When a battery is connected in parallel to two long parallel wires, the currents in the two wires will be in same direction. Due to it, a force of attraction will be acting between them and they are coming closer to each other.

Which circuit has the larger equivalent resistance: a circuit with two 10 ohm resistors connected in parallel or a circuit with two 10 ohm resistors connected in series?

Answers

Answer:

A circuit with two 10 ohm resistors connected in series.

Explanation:

The formula for the equivalent resistance for resistors in parallel is

[tex]\frac{1}{Rt} = \frac{1}{R1} + \frac{1}{R2}[/tex]   So if R1=R2= 10  [tex]\frac{1}{Rt} = \frac{1}{10} + \frac{1}{10} = \frac{2}{10} <=> Rt =\frac{10}{2} =5 ohm[/tex]

The formula for the equivalent resistance for resistors in series is

Rt = R1 + R2  So Rt= 10 + 10 = 20

The source of sound moves away from the listener.The listener has the impression that the source is lower in pitch. Why?

Answers

When the source is moving away from the observer the velocity of the source is added to the speed of light. This increases the value of the denominator, decreasing the value of the observed frequency. Frequency corresponds to pitch or tone; a lower observed frequency will result in a lower observed pitch.

We do not use water instead of mercury in a barometer​

Answers

Answer:

Because

1)Water is relatively less dense. Mercury is 13.6 times more dense than water. SO, If you use water, you have to have the length of barometer of length (or height) 13.534 times the length of mercury barometer, which may be more than 11 meter in length.

2)Also mercury as compared to water, has comparatively less specific heat and good conductor of heat, could come to the same temperature of the atmosphere more quickly.

Answer:

The atmospheric pressure at sea level 76 cm of Hg=1.013× 10⁵ pascal .

Explanation:

That is if water is used in barometer tube instead of mercury the length of the tube must be greater than 10.326 cm.so we cannot replace mercury by water in the barometer.

a dentist used a light have wavelength 450nm what is the energy of the light

Answers

Answer:

≈ 4.41 x 10^-19

Explanation:

The formula for the energy of light is...

E = hc / λ

where 'h' is Planck's constant: 6.626 x 10^-34 Js

           'c' is the speed of light: 2.998 x 10^8 ms

       &  'λ' is the wavelength (in this case): 450 nm

1 nanometer (nm) = 1 x 10^-9m

E = (6.626 x 10^-34 Js)(2.998 x 10^8 ms) / (450nm)(1 m / 10^-9 nm)

E ≈ 4.41 x 10^-19 J

Two resistors connected in series have an equivalent resistance of 690 Ohms. When they are connected in parallel, their equivalent resistance is 118 Ohms. Find the resistance of each resistor.

Answers

Explanation:

Let [tex]R_1[/tex] and [tex]R_2[/tex] be the the resistances of the resistors. We are given that

[tex]R_1 + R_2 = 690\:Ω\:\:\:\:\:\:\:(1)[/tex]

and

[tex]\dfrac{1}{R_1} + \dfrac{1}{R_2} = \dfrac{1}{118\:Ω}\:\:\:\:\:(2)[/tex]

From Eqn(1), we can write

[tex]R_2 = 690\:Ω - R_1[/tex]

and then plug this into Eqn(2):

[tex]\dfrac{1}{R_1} + \dfrac{1}{690\:Ω - R_1} = \dfrac{1}{118\:Ω}[/tex]

or

[tex]\dfrac{690\:Ω}{(690\:Ω)R_1 - R_1^2}= \dfrac{1}{118\:Ω}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow R_1^2 - (690\:Ω)R_1 + (690\:Ω)(118\:Ω)= 0[/tex]

or

[tex]R_1^2 - 690R_1 + 81420 = 0[/tex]

Using the quadratic formula, we find that the above equation has two roots:

[tex]R_1 = 151.1\:Ω,\:\:538.9\:Ω[/tex]

This means that if you choose one root value for [tex]R_1[/tex], the other root will be the value for [tex]R_2[/tex].

Light of wavelength 600 nm illuminates a diffraction grating. The second-order maximum is at angle 39.2. How many lines per millimeter does this grating have?

Answers

Answer:

Diffraction equation applies in this case:

d*Sin x = m*wavelength, where d = spacing of lines, x = angle = 39.5°, m = order of maximum = 2

Substituting;

d* Sin 39.5 = 2*600*10^-9

d = (2*600*10^-9)/Sin 39.5 = 1.88656*10^-6 m

In 1 mm (or 0.001 m), the number of lines is given as;

Number of lines = 0.001/d = 0.001/(1.88656*10^-6) = 530.065 ≈ 530 lines

What is velocity?

The rate at which an object's position changes when observed from a specific point of view and when measured against a specific unit of time is known as its velocity.

According to Que, when a bicyclist moves in a straight line and slows down, then the velocity decrease as displacement is decreasing, and the acceleration also decreases only displacement increases.
