Problem 7: One cubic centimeter (1 cm³) of a typical cumulus cloud contains 50 to 500 water drops, which have a typical radius of 10 μm (1 μm = 1 x 10-6 m). For that range, give the lower value and the higher value, respectively, for the following. 1 km = 1000 m, 1 m = 100 cm, 1 L = 1000 cm³. Take the volume of a water drop to be the volume of a sphere, V = ³. a. How many cubic meters (m³) of water are in a cylindrical cumulus cloud of height 3.0 km and radius 1.0 km? The volume of a cylinder of radius r and height h is V = nr² h. Answer: 2000 m³ - 20000 m³ b. How many 1-liter bottles would that water fill? Answer: 2 x 106 - 2 × 107. c. Water has a density of 1000 kg/m³. How much mass does the water in the cloud have? Answer: 2 x 106 kg - 2 × 107 kg.
A cloud has one edge at the origin and extends a distance of 3.9 meters to the other edge. The linear mass density of the cloud follows the equation A(x) - 177x^4 (with the constant having appropriate units such that A has units of kg/m). Where is the center of mass of this cloud?
6. A water droplet falling in the atmosphere is spherical. Assume that as the droplet passes through a cloud, it acquires mass at a rate proportional to kA where k is a constant (k>0) and A is its cross-sectional area. Consider a droplet of initial radius ro that enters a cloud with a velocity vo. Assume no resistive force and show (a) that the radius increases linearly with the time, and (b) that if ro is negligibly small then the speed increases linearly with the time within the cloud.
Pd Pd 1. Let's consider a toy model of nuclear fission. Suppose an nucleus of Uranium-235 (92 protons, molar weight of 235 g/mole) "splits" into two "daughter" nuclei of Palladium (46 protons each) – this is not how it really happens, but it's a very simple model that actually gives fairly accurate results. The radius of the original U-235 nucleus is about 7.4 x 10-15 m. (a) If the Pd nuclei each have half the volume of the U nucleus, which is reasonable, and they are "touching" right after the split, how far apart are their centers? (b) Using conservation of energy, what will be the sum of the kinetic energies of the Pd nuclei when they are far apart from each other? (c) That's energy of one atom undergoing fission, so what, then, is the energy released by the fission of 1 kg of U-235? Express this in Joules and also in kilotons of TNT, where 1 kt = 4.2x1012 J. (The Hiroshima bomb yielded about 15 kt) (d) How many kwh (kilowatt-hours) of energy is this, (1 kwh = 3.6x10° J), and (if…
How do you find the area of this? I had to do an experiment where you take a styrofoam cup and poke a flashlight through the bottom of it, then shine the light onto a wall from different distances and measure the diameter. I have to calculate the area. It it just pi*r^2? That's what I did, but then I've seen someone else use 4*pi*r^2 and that confused me. I want to make sure I done it right.

The intensity levels I of two earthquakes measured on a seismograph can be compared by the formula log(I1I2)=M1−M2 using the common (base 10) logarithm and where M is the magnitude given by the Richter Scale. In August 2009, an earthquake of magnitude 6.1 hit Honshu, Japan. In March 2011, that same region experienced yet another, more devastating earthquake, this time with a magnitude of 9.0.[1] How many times greater was the intensity of the 2011 earthquake? Round to the nearest whole number. The intensity of the 2011 earthquake was ________ times greater than the intensity of the 2009 earthquake. 1 http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/world/historical.php. Accessed 3/4/2014.
The Richter Scale is used for measuring the magnitude of earthquakes. the magnitude of an earthquake is, by deifnition, measured 100 kilometers from its originating point, and is given by the equation M = log(s/10^-4), where S is the "strength" of the earthquake, as determined by the shockwaves it sends through the ground. Earthquake strengths vary greatly from 0 in some cases to 800,000,000 or more in other cases which is why a logarithmic scale is used to measure their magnitudes. (I already know Part A) Part B Suppose a given earthquake is twice as strong as another earthquake. Determine the difference in magnitude of these earthquakes. Part C The largest manmade explosion was the test detonation of the Tsar Bomba hydrogen bomb. It was equivalent to about 50 million tons of TNT. It was similar in intensity to a magnitude 8.5 earthquake. The stronger earthquake ever recorded was the 1960 Valdivia earthquake than the Tsar Bomba? How much TNT was the earthquake equivalent to? Show…
