Answer:
According to Carl Sagan's Baloney Detection Kit notes
"Whenever possible there must be independent confirmation of the facts"
Independent confirmation by other scientist is to ensure that the observation of the over 40% efficient solar panel is repeatable
It is also important to avoid accepting the given mandates at face value and accepting that the scientist considered all factors when taking the results or that the original developers has assigned others to check their findings before the introduction of the new type of solar cell

State Pascal’s law. (2) b) The area of one end of a U-tube is 0.01 m2 and that of the other
end the force 1 m2, when a force was applied on the liquid at the first end, the force experienced at
the other end was
Answer:
Pascal Law's says that:
If the area of one end of a U-tube is A, and the area of the other end is A'. then if we apply a force F in the first end (the one of area A), the force experienced at the other end must be:
F' = F*(A'/A).
b) Now we can apply this to our particular case:
if the area of one end is 0.01m^2, and the area of the other end is 1m^2
Then we have:
A = 0.01m^2
A' = 1m^2
So, if now we apply a force F in the first end, the force experienced at the other end will be:
F' = F*(1m^2/0.01m^2) = F*100
This means that the force in the other end must be 100 times the force in the first end.

A road with a radius of 75.0 m is banked so that a car can navigate the curve at a speed of 15.0 m/s without any friction. When a car is going 31.8 m/s on this curve, what minimum coefficient of static friction is needed if the car is to navigate the curve without slipping?
Find the angle θ made by the road. When rounding the curve at 15.0 m/s, the car has a radial acceleration of
a = (15.0 m/s)² / (75.0 m) = 3.00 m/s²
There are two forces acting on the car in this situation:
• the normal force of the road pushing upward on the car, perpendicular to the surface of the road, with magnitude n
• the car's weight, pointing directly downward; its magnitude is mg (where m is the mass of the car and g is the acceleration due to gravity), and hence its perpendicular and parallel components are, respectively, -mg cos(θ) and mg sin(θ)
By Newton's second law, the net forces in the perpendicular and parallel directions are
(perp.) ∑ F = n - mg cos(θ) = 0
(para.) ∑ F = mg sin(θ) = ma
==> sin(θ) = a/g ==> θ = arcsin(a/g) ≈ 17.8°
(Notice that in the paralell case, the positive direction points toward the center of the curve.)
When rounding the curve at 31.8 m/s, the car's radial acceleration changes to
a = (31.8 m/s)² / (75.0 m) ≈ 13.5 m/s²
and there is now static friction (mag. f = µn, where µ is the coefficient of static friction) acting on the car and keeping from sliding off the road, hence pointing toward the center of the curve and acting in the parallel direction. Newton's second law gives the same equations, with an additional term in the parallel case:
(perp.) ∑ F = n - mg cos(θ) = 0
(para.) ∑ F = mg sin(θ) + f = ma
The first equation gives
n = mg cos(θ)
and substituting into the second equation, we get
mg sin(θ) + µmg cos(θ) = ma
==> µ = (a - g sin(θ)) / (g cos(θ)) = a/g sec(θ) - tan(θ) ≈ 1.12
Answer:
Explanation:
You are in the chapter on Physics about uniform circular motion and gravity. This is a centripetal force problem in particular, and the equation for that is
[tex]F_c=\frac{mv^2}{r}[/tex] where
[tex]F_c[/tex] is the centripetal force needed to keep the car moving in its circular path,
m is the mass of the car,
v is the velocity with which the car is moving, and
r is the radius of the circle that the car is moving around.
For us, the centripetal force is supplied by the friction keeping the car on the road, altering the equation to become
[tex]f=\frac{mv^2}{r}[/tex] and friction is defined by
f = μ[tex]F_n[/tex] (the coefficient of friction multiplied by the weight of the car).
Going on and getting buried even deeper,
[tex]F_n=mg[/tex] which says that the weight of the car is equal to its mass times the pull of gravity. Putting all that together, finally, we have the equation we need to solve this problem:
μ·m·g = [tex]\frac{mv^2}{r}[/tex] and we solve this for μ:
μ = [tex]\frac{mv^2}{mgr}[/tex] and it just so happens that the mass of the car cancels out. (I'll tell you why the mass of the car doesn't matter at the end of this problem). Filling in and solving for the coefficient of friction:
μ = [tex]\frac{31.8^2}{(9.8)(75.0)}[/tex] to 2 significant figures is
μ = 1.4
The mass of the car doesn't affect whether or not the car can stay on the curve. Even though a car with a greater mass will have a greater frictional force, that doesn't mean that it's easier for that car to stay on the road; a larger mass only means that a larger centripetal force is needed to keep it moving in a circle. This makes the gain in friction become offset by the fact that a larger centripetal force is necessary. Thus,
On a flat curve, the mass of the object experiencing circular motion does not affect the velocity at which it can stay on the curve.

Compared to most other metals, the chemical properties that alkali metals have are low melting points (28.5°C) and low densities that is typically less than 1 grams per cubic centimeters.
Look at the image of a sports car. It has less resistance than a normal car because it is. What word fills the gap?
Answer:
It is streamlined
Explanation:
The speed of a car as well as its air resistance and fuel consumption has a lot to do with its shape.
A car that is streamlined glides through air with less resistance, moves with a higher speed and consumes less fuel.
The essence of streamlining is to reduce the aerodynamic drag on the car thereby increasing its speed, decreasing its air resistance and fuel consumption.

What force is necessary to keep a mass of 0.8 kg revolving in a horizontal circle of radius 0.7 m with a period of 0.5 s? What is the direction of this force?
Answer:
88.34 N directed towards the center of the circle
Explanation:
Applying,
F = mv²/r................... Equation 1
F = Force needed to keep the mass in a circle, m = mass of the mass, v = velocity of the mass, r = radius of the circle.
But,
v = 2πr/t................... Equation 2
Where t = time, π = pie
Substitute equation 2 into equation 1
F = m(2πr/t)²/r
F = 4π²r²m/t²r
F = 4π²rm/t²............. Equation 3
From the question,
Given: m = 0.8 kg, r = 0.7 m, t = 0.5 s
Constant: π = 3.14
Substitute these values into equation 3
F = 4(3.14²)(0.7)(0.8)/0.5²
F = 88.34 N directed towards the center of the circle
How are ions formed ?
Answer:
Ions are formed by the addition of electrons to, or the removal of electrons from, neutral atoms or molecules or other ions; by combination of ions with other particles; or by rupture of a covalent bond between two atoms in such a way that both of the electrons of the bond are left in association with one of the ..
Answer:
Ions are formed when atoms lose or gain electrons, simply when electrons from the metal transfers electrons from its outermost shell( forming a positively charged metallic ion) to the outermost shell of the non-metallic atom( forming a negatively charged ion)

B. 3.0 X 10-10 N
C. 5.4 X 10-2 N
D. 2.7 N
Answer:
D. 2.7 N
Explanation:
Applying
F = kq'q/r²................ Equation 1
Where F = force, k = coulomb's constant, q' = first charge, q = second charge, r = distance between the charge
From the question,
Given: q' = +3.0×10⁻⁷ C, q = +4.0×10⁻⁷C, r = 2.0×10⁻² m
Constant: k = 8.98×10⁹ Nm²/C²
Substitute these values into equation 1
F = ( +3.0×10⁻⁷)(+4.0×10⁻⁷)(8.98×10⁹)/(2.0×10⁻²)²
F = 26.94×10⁻¹ N
F = 2.694 N

the ratio of the energy per second radiated by the filament of a lamp at 250k to that radiated at 2000k, assuming the filament is a blackbody radiator? The filament of a particular electric lamp can be considered as a 90%blackbody radiator. calculate the energy per second radiated when its temperature is 2000k if its surface area is 10∧-6 m²
Answer:
(a) [tex]\frac{P_{250k}}{P_{2000k}}=2.4\ x\ 10^{-4}[/tex]
(b) P = 0.816 Watt
Explanation:
(a)
The power radiated from a black body is given by Stefan Boltzman Law:
[tex]P = \sigma AT^4[/tex]
where,
P = Energy Radiated per Second = ?
σ = stefan boltzman constant = 5.67 x 10⁻⁸ W/m².K⁴
T = Absolute Temperature
So the ratio of power at 250 K to the power at 2000 K is given as:
[tex]\frac{P_{250k}}{P_{2000k}}=\frac{\sigma A(250)^4}{\sigma A(2000)^4}\\\\\frac{P_{250k}}{P_{2000k}}=2.4\ x\ 10^{-4}[/tex]
(b)
Now, for 90% radiator blackbody at 2000 K:
[tex]P = (0.9)(5.67\ x\ 10^{-8}\ W/m^2.K^4)(1\ x\ 10^{-6}\ m^2)(2000\ K)^4[/tex]
P = 0.816 Watt
