A uniform lead sphere and a uniform aluminum sphere have the same mass. What is the ratio of the radius of the Aluminum sphere to the radius of the lead sphere?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The ratio of the radius of aluminium to the radius of lead is 1.60:1

Step by step solution

01

Identification of given data

The given data can be listed below,

  • The mass of a lead sphere is,mPb=M
  • The mass of an Aluminium sphere is, mAl=M
02

Concept/Significance of density of a material.

The density of an object can be used to determine what materials are included within it. The purity of a metal sample can be determined by measuring its density.

03

Determination of the ratio of the radius of the Aluminium sphere to the radius of the Lead sphere

The mass of uniform spheres can be given by,

mPb=VPbPbmAl=VAlAl 鈥(颈)

Here, VPbis the volume of lead sphere, VAlis the volume of the aluminium sphere, Pbis the density of lead, and Alis the density of the Aluminium.

The volume of sphere is given by,

V=43r3 鈥(颈颈)

Here, r is the radius of sphere.

Substitute the value of volume in equation (i).

mPb=43rPb3Pb 鈥(颈颈颈)

mAl=43rAl3Al 鈥(颈惫)

Equate equation (iii) and (iv), as the mass of both spheres is same.

43rPb3Pb=43rAJ3AIrAJrPb=PbAJ1/3=11.32.71/3=1.601

Thus, the ratio of the radius of aluminium to the radius of lead is 1.60:1

You are standing at rest at a bus stop. A bus moving at a constant speed of 5.00 m/spasses you. When the rear of the bus 12 m ispast you, you realize that it is your bus, so you start to run toward it with a constant acceleration of0.960m/s2. How far would you have to run before you catch up with the rear of the bus, and how fast must you be running then? Would an average college student be physically able to accomplish this?

On a training flight, a student pilot flies from Lincoln, Nebraska, to Clarinda, Iowa, next to St. Joseph, Missouri, and then to Manhattan, Kansas

(Fig. P1.66). The directions are shown relative to north: 0is north, 90is east, 180is south, and 270is west. Use the method of components to find (a) the distance she has to fly from Manhattan to get back to Lincoln, and (b) the direction (relative to north) she must fly to get there. Illustrate your solutions with a vector diagram.

Question- Neptunium. In the fall of 2002, scientists at Los Alamos National Laboratory determined that the critical mass of neptunium-237 is about 60 kg. The critical mass of a fissionable material is the minimum amount that must be brought together to start a nuclear chain reaction. Neptunium-237 has a density of 19.5 g/cm3. What would be the radius of a sphere of this material that has a critical mass?

As planets with a wide variety of properties are being discovered

outside our solar system, astrobiologists are considering whether and how life

could evolve on planets that might be very different from earth. One recently

discovered extrasolar planet, or exoplanet, orbits a star whose mass is 0.70

times the mass of our sun. This planet has been found to have 2.3 times the

earth鈥檚 diameter and 7.9 times the earth鈥檚 mass. For planets in this size range,

computer models indicate a relationship between the planet鈥檚 density and

composition:

Based on these data, what is the most likely composition of this planet? (a)

Mostly iron; (b) iron and rock; (c) iron and rock with some lighter elements; (d)

hydrogen and helium gases.
