Answer: Magnitude of the force exerted on the egg by the ground is 9.2N
Explanation:
Given the following :
Mass of egg (m) = 150g = 0.15kg
Height(h) from which egg is dropped = 3m
velocity of egg before hitting the ground (u) = 4.4m/s
Final velocity of egg (V) = 0
Time taken (t) = 0.072s
Magnitude of the force exerted on the egg by the ground can be found by applying Newton's 2nd law:
Momentum = mass × velocity
From Newton's second law:
Force = mass × change in Velocity with time ;
That is
F = m * ΔV / t
Inputting our values
F = 0.15 * (4.4 - 0) / 0.072
F = 0.15 × (4.4 / 0.072)
F = 0.15 × 61.11
F = 9.16N
F = 9.2N
Answer:32.24 s
Explanation:
Given
mass of runner (m)=51.8 kg
Constant acceleration(a)=
Final velocity (v)=5.47 m/s
Time taken taken to reach 5.47 m/s
v=u+at
Distance traveled during this time is
So remaining distance left to travel with constant velocity=153.57 m
thus time
Total time=28.07+4.17=32.24 s
Gamma radiation could be used to sterilize plastic petri plates in a plastic wrapper.
Answer: Option E
<u>Explanation:
</u>
It is known that radioactive radiations have greater ionizing powers compared to other electromagnetic radiations. Among the radioactive radiations, gamma rays are the most ionizing radiation.
So they are widely used in sterilizing process. As the penetration power of gamma is more compared to alpha and beta, in order to kill microorganisms gamma radiations are used.
When plastic petri plates wrapped with plastic are bombarded or sterilizing with gamma rays, the rays will ionise the micro-organism. Thus mutilating their DNA and preventing their reproduction.
