You are using water to dilute small amounts of chemicals in the laboratory, drop by drop. How many drops of water are in a 1.0-L bottle? (Hint:Start by estimating the diameter of a drop of water.)

Short Answer

Expert verified

There will be around 29058.925 drops of water in the bottle per liter.

Step by step solution

01

Determining the diameter

Here,

As in the question hint is given to estimate the diameter of the drop of water. Once you suppose the diameter of water to be a number we can find out radius by dividing it with two.

Water droplets are always considered in form of a sphere hence the diameter of sphere will be getting.

Using the radius of the sphere we can find out the volume of water present in one drop of water.

D= diameter of water droplet (in)

R= radius of water droplet (in)

V= Volume of water droplet (in3)

02

Volume of one drop of water 

Volume of sphere can be obtained by multiplying the radius cube to the value of pie and 4/3

Let suppose the diameter ofwater droplet be 0.16 inch.Hence the radius of the drop will be R = 0.08 inch

Volum of water droplet =\(V = \,\frac{4}{3}\pi {R^3}\)

=\(\frac{4}{3}\pi {(0.08)^3}\)[

= 0.0021 in3

The volume of one droplet is 0.0021 in3

Write the units with variables.

Don’t write equation separetely.

03

Number of drops in 1 liter

Again, we need to do conversion here in this case. The number of drops in one liter of bottle can be calculated as below:

=\(\frac{{1\,drop}}{{0.0021\,inc{h^3}}} \times {(\frac{{1\,in}}{{2.54\,cm}})^3} \times (\frac{{1000\,c{m^3}}}{{1\,L}})\)[1]

=29058.925 droplets / L

Therefor after the experiment calculation we got around29058.925 drops of water in the bottle per liter.

A student asserts that a material particle must always have a speed slower than that of light, and a massless particle must always move at exactly the speed of light. Is she correct? If so, how do massless particles such as photons and neutrinos acquire this speed? Can’t they start from rest and accelerate? Explain.

Creating a Particle. Two protons (each with rest massM=1.67×10-27kg ) are initially moving with equal speeds in opposite directions. The protons continue to exist after a collision that also produces ann0 particle (see Chapter 44). The rest mass of then0 is m=9.75×10-28kg. (a) If the two protons and then0 are all at rest after the collision, find the initial speed of the protons, expressed as a fraction of the speed of light. (b) What is the kinetic energy of each proton? Express your answer in . (c) What is the rest energy of the n0, expressed in ? (d) Discuss the relationship between the answers to parts (b) and (c).

An alien spacecraft is flying overhead at a great distance as you stand in your backyard. You see its search light blink on for 0.150 s. The first officer on the spacecraft measures that the searchlight is on for 12.0 ms. (a) Which of these two measured times is the proper time? (b) What is the speed of the spacecraft relative to the earth, expressed as a fraction of the speed of light c?

When ultraviolet light with a wavelength of 4.00nm falls on a certain metal surface, the maximum kinetic energy of the emitted photoelectrons is measured to be 1.10eV. What is the maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons when light of wavelength 300.0nm falls on the same surface?

A 4.78 - MeV alpha particle from aR226a decay makes a head-on collision with a uranium nucleus. A uranium nucleus has 92 protons. (a) What is the distance of closest approach of the alpha particle to the center of the nucleus? Assume that the uranium nucleus remains at rest and that the approach is much greater than the radius of the uranium nucleus. (b) What is the force on the alpha particle at the instant when it is at the distance of closest approach?
