A) Why are cars made with bumpers that can be pushed in during a crash? (5) b) A crane operated by an electric motor has a mass of 500 kg. It raises a load of 300 kg vertically at a steady speed of 0.2 ms−1 . Assume resistance to be constant at 1200 N. What is the power required to raise the load? (5) |
|
Answer» cars have the bumpers with a larger surface area and this is because it leads to LESS impact of force by ANYTHING in OPPOSITE direction. If it is not so, the impact would be more CAUSING some destruction in car.B] Energy = F.s = m.a.sPower = E/t = m.a.s/t = m.a.v (a=g=10m/s)Total Power of crane = (500+300)(0.2)(10) = 1600WPower of Resistance = 1200(0.2)(10) = 2400WSo, the power required to raise the load = 2400-1600 = 800W |

Relation between atomic number and wavelength |
|
Answer» energy is the energy that binds the ATOMIC particles like protons, neutrons and ELECTRONS all together in one atom.Atomic energy is mainly the energy of attraction in the nucleus. When two nuclei are merged together into one nucleus by FUSION , then a lot of atomic energy is released.When a nucleus of a heavy atom is bombarded with some protons and neutrons at high speeds, the nucleus breaks into two smaller nuclei. This process called FISSION releases a lot of atomic energy.Atomic weight is the mass of the nucleus, which is the sum of number of protons multiplied by the mass of protons and the number of neutrons multiplied by the mass of neutrons.====Relation: Atomic energy is more in the heavier ATOMS. When heavier (more atomic weight) atoms are broken, there is more energy. Atomic weight of the nuclear MATERIAL changes when atomic energy is released. In fact the material gets converted into material of smaller atomic weight, when fission happens. |

when a spring is cut into half its time period should remain same because mass halves and k doubles right ? |
|
Answer» , , where Time-period, MASS attached to the SPRING, spring-constant.Now if spring is CUT into half its spring-constant, k, doubles.Hence time period, T, is decresed by times.The above explanation is valid only if spring is ideal, i.e. massless.A more general formula is ,here, mass of spring.I believe you can find the MODIFIED time-period. |

Collect the information about geyser and prepare a report about type of geyser |
|
Answer» c Electric Heater/GeyserWorking principle (Physics) The Joules HEATING EFFECT of an electric resistance is used to heat water. We use electric geysers at homes or in clinics or shops to heat water. It is cylindrical shaped and is mounted on walls. It has a capacity of 50 to 250 liters. See diagram. It consists of a water container vessel with an inlet for cold water and an outlet for hot water. The heater contains a thick (tubular) electric conductor (metallic resistance) coil element. It gets heated due to the dissipation of energy when current passes through it. The heat energy is transmitted to water through conduction and convection mechanisms. Usually the heating element is made of Nickel or chromium. There is a mechanism to measure the temperature of water using a thermostat. It shuts off, automatically, the current supply to the heating element, when the temperature is above a preset value. This is set in the factory. There MAY be LEDs or small bulbs to indicate WHETHER the heater is switched on or off. The water container is usually made of a material which does not get corroded or rusted easily. The water container is protected with insulating material and air gap so that the heat energy is retained inside the container. The materials for the outer casings are usually stainless steel, plastic and china glass. Plastic is safer to prevent from leakages and shocks. =========================================Power and rating related information: The heater is usually based on AC voltage. It is given a rating : power it consumes, current it passes when the rated voltage is applied. Voltage rating V could be 220 V in countries like India and 110 V in USA. Power rating P could be 1 KW to 5 kW depending on size. Heating Power P = V² / Resistance of heating coil. If the water tank capacity is L liters, then rate of heating is: = P / (L * density * specific heat ) = P / ( L * 1 * 4181) = = P / (4181 L) °K / sec If we want to heat water from 20° to 50°, then it takes time T = T = 30 * 4181 L / P = 2000 L / P minutes. If people could wait for 15 minutes for L litres , then Power needed P = 2000 L / L = 2 kW ==================================================Instant Heaters We get instant heaters also. They have a small capacity (2 litres). The water is heated at a constant rate as the water flows through the geyser. There is no storage and not much insulation provided in this type of heaters. A heating (electric resistor) coil is used in them. The wattage could be around 2 kW. Care must be taken as if there is not enough water, it may burn the coil. Flow of water can be decreased or increased to have hotter or colder water. |

Which is more, atomic binding energy or nuclear binding energy? |
|
Answer» binding.........................................binding energy means the energy required to seperata one SYSTEM into seprately.a BOND energy is less than its constituent parts.At the atomic binding energy of the atom derives from electromagneticinteraction and is the energy required to disassemble an atom into free electrons and a nucleus.At the NUCLEAR level, binding energy is also equal to the energy liberated when a nucleus is created from other nucleons or nuclei. This nuclear binding energy is derived from the nuclear force and is the energy required to disassemble a NUCLEAUS into the same number of free, unbound NEUTRON and protons it is composed of, so that the nucleons are far/distant enough from each other so that the nuclear force can no longer cause the particles to interact. |
