One consequence of Einstein's theory of special relativity is that mass is a form of energy. This mass-energy relationship is pe

rhaps the most famous of all physics equations:
E=mc2,
where m is mass, c is the speed of the light, and E is the energy. In SI units, the units of speed are m/s. For the preceding equation to have consistent units (the same units on both sides of the equation), the units of E must be which of the following?

The SI unit for energy is the Joule.

Answer:

The energy unit is expressed as kg-m/s or Joules.

Explanation:

The relationship between mass and energy in physics is represented by:

E=mc^2

Where

m denotes the mass of the object

c signifies the speed of light

In the SI system, mass is measured in kilograms and the speed of light in m/s. Therefore, energy is defined in kg-m/s, which is equal to Joules.

Thus, the appropriate SI unit for energy is kg-m/s or Joules. This concludes the explanation.

An air hockey game has a puck of mass 30 grams and a diameter of 100 mm. The air film under the puck is 0.1 mm thick. Calculate
inna [3103]

Answer:

the time it takes after impact for the puck is 2.18 seconds

Explanation:

initially given information

mass = 30 g = 0.03 kg

diameter = 100 mm = 0.1 m

thickness = 0.1 mm = 1 ×10^{-4} m

dynamic viscosity = 1.75 ×10^{-5} Ns/m²

temperature of air = 15°C

to determine

time needed for the puck to reduce its speed by 10%

solution

we note that velocity changes from 0 to v

assuming initial velocity = v

therefore final velocity = 0.9v

implying a change in velocity is du = v

and clearance dy = h

shear stress acting on the surface is expressed as

= µ \frac{du}{dy}

therefore

= µ \frac{v}{h}............1

substituting the values

= 1.75 ×10^{-5} × \frac{v}{10^{-4}}

= 0.175 v

the area between the air and puck is given by

Area = \frac{\pi }{4} d^{2}

area = \frac{\pi }{4} 0.1^{2}

area = 7.85 × \frac{v}{10^{-3}} m²

thus, the force on the puck can be represented as

Force = × area

force = 0.175 v × 7.85 × 10^{-3}

force = 1.374 × 10^{-3} v

now applying Newton's second law

force = mass × acceleration

- force = mass \frac{dv}{dt}

- 1.374 × 10^{-3} v = 0.03 \frac{0.9v - v }{t}

solving for t = \frac{0.1 v * 0.03}{1.37*10^{-3} v}

the time needed after impact for the puck is 2.18 seconds

A thin insulating rod is bent into a semicircular arc of radius a, and a total electric charge Q is distributed uniformly along
Softa [3030]

Answer:

v = \frac{kQ}{a}  

Explanation:

We define the linear charge density as:

\lambda = \frac{Q}{L}

     Where L is the length of the rod, in this scenario the semicircle's length is L = πr

The potential at the center created by a differential element of charge is:

dv = \frac{kdq}{r}

          where k denotes Coulomb's constant

                     r signifies the distance from dq to the center of the circle

Thus.

v = \int_{}^{}\frac{kdq}{a}  

v = \frac{k}{a}\int_{}^{}dq

v = \frac{kQ}{a}     The potential at the semicircle's center

If a 50.0-kg mass weighs 554 n on the planet saturn, calculate saturn’s radius
ValentinkaMS [3465]

Answer:

17.35 × 10^(-6) m

Explanation:

Mass; m = 50 kg

Weight; W = 554 N

From the formula:

W = mg

This simplifies to; 554 = 50g

g = 554/50

g = 11.08 m/s²

Also, using the formula;

mg = GMm/r²

hence; g = GM/r²

Rearranging gives;

r = √(GM/g)

With G as a known constant of 6.67 × 10^(-11) Nm²/kg²

r = √(6.67 × 10^(-11) × 50/11.08)

r = 17.35 × 10^(-6) m

Which phrase describes an atom?
kicyunya [3294]
<span>an atom is described as having a negatively charged electron cloud surrounding a positively charged nucleus, which is the correct choice.</span><span>

The nucleus contains electrically neutral neutrons and positively charged protons, establishing its positive charge. In contrast, electrons carry a negative charge. The electromagnetic force keeps the atoms bound to the nucleus.
