calculate the amount of work done by a person while taking a bag of mass 100kg to the top of the building hight 10m. The mass of
vredina [299]

Explanation:

Total mass=100+10=110

Total weight=mass×gravitational field strength

=110×10

=1100N

Work done=force×distance

=1100×10

=11000J

How much would it cost to cover the entire land area of the U.S. in dollar bills?
agasfer [191]

Answer:

  $900 trillion

Explanation:

If Alaska is 20% of the contiguous US, then the approximate area of interest is ...

  1200 miles × 3000 miles = 3.6×10^6 square miles.

The size of a dollar bill is about ...

  (6.5 cm)·(15.5 cm) = 100.75 cm^2

One mile is 160,934.4 cm, so 1 square mile is about ...

  1 mi^2 = (160,934.4 cm)^2 ≈ 2.59·10^10 cm^2

The number of dollars of interest is then ...

  (3.6 · 10^6 mi^2)(2.59 · 10^10 cm^2)/(100.75 cm^2) ≈ 9.3·10^14

  ≈ 930 × 10^12 . . . dollars

It would cost about 900 trillion dollars to cover the land area of the US in $1 bills.

A tall, cylindrical chimney falls over when its base is ruptured. Treat the chimney as a thin rod of length 53.2 m. At the insta
rusak2 [61]
From an energy balance, we can use this formula to solve for the angular speed of the chimney

ω^2 = 3g / h sin θ

Substituting the given values:
ω^2 = 3 (9.81) / 53.2 sin 34.1
ω^2 = 0.987 /s

The formula for radial acceleration is:
a = rω^2

So,
a = 53.2 (0.987) = 52.494 /s^2

The linear velocity is:
v^2 = ar
v^2 = 52.949 (53.2) = 2816.887

The tangential acceleration is:
a = r v^2
a = 53.2 (2816.887)
a = 149858.378 m/s^2

If the tangential acceleration is equal to g:
g = r^2 3g / sin θ
Solving for θ
θ = 67°

Silver has a work function of 4.5 eV . Part A What is the longest wavelength of light that will release an electron from a silve
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

λ = 2.7608 x 10⁻⁷ m = 276.08 nm

Explanation:

The work function of a metallic surface is the minimum amount of photon energy required to release the photo-electrons from the surface of metal. The work function is given by the following formula:

Work Function = hc/λ

where,

Work Function = (4.5 eV)(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J/1 eV) = 7.2 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

h = Plank's Constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

λ = longest wavelength capable of releasing electron.

Therefore,

7.2 x 10⁻¹⁹ J = (6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)/λ

λ = (6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(7.2 x 10⁻¹⁹ J)

<u>λ = 2.7608 x 10⁻⁷ m = 276.08 nm</u>
