Which one of the following types of electromagnetic wave travels through space the fastest?

Physics
1 answer:
Setler [38]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

As a result, light travels fastest in empty space, and travels slowest in solids. In glass, for example, light travels about 197,000 km/s.

A 0.600 m long pendulum is used to determine the acceleration due to gravity on a distant plane. If 20 oscillations are complete
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

7.50 m/s^2

Explanation:

The period of a pendulum is given by:

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}} (1)

where

L = 0.600 m is the length of the pendulum

g = ? is the acceleration due to gravity


In this problem, we can find the period T. In fact, the frequency is equal to the number of oscillations per second, so:

f=\frac{N}{t}=\frac{20}{35.5 s}=0.563 Hz

And the period is the reciprocal of the frequency:

T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{0.563 Hz}=1.776 s

And by using this into eq.(1), we can find the value of g:

g=\frac{4 \pi^2 L}{T^2}=\frac{4 \pi^2 (0.600 m)}{(1.776 s)^2}=7.50 m/s^2

Four forces act on a hot-air balloon, as shown
dolphi86 [110]

The magnitude of the resultant force on the balloon is 374.13 N.

The given forces from the image;

  • <em>Upward force = 514 N</em>
  • <em>Downward force = 267 N</em>
  • <em>Eastward force = 678 N</em>
  • <em>Westward force = 397 N</em>

The net vertical force on the balloon is calculated as follows;

F_y = 514 \ N \ \ - \ \ 267 \ N\\\\F_y = 247 \ N

The net horizontal force on the balloon is calculated as follows;

F_x = 678 \ N \ - \ 397 \ N\\\\F_x = 281 \ N

The magnitude of the resultant force on the balloon is calculated as follows;

F = \sqrt{F_y^2 + F_x^2} \\\\F = \sqrt{(247)^2 + (281)^2} \\\\F= 374.13 \ N

Thus, the magnitude of the resultant force on the balloon is 374.13 N.

A) an electron has an initial speed of 226000 m/s. if it undergoes an acceleration of 4.0 x 1014 m/s2, how long will it take to
KIM [24]

initial speed of 226000 m/s

acceleration of 4.0 x 1014 m/s2,

speed of 781000 m/s

What is Acceleration?

  • Acceleration is a rate of change of velocity with respect to time with respect to direction and speed.
  • A point or an object moving in a straight line is accelerated if it speeds up or slows down.
  • Acceleration formula can be written as,

                    a = (v - u ) / t m/s²

As we have to find the time taken, the formula can be altered as,

t = \frac{v-u}{a}

where, t - time taken to reach a final speed

v - final velocity

u - initial velocity

a - acceleration.

Substituting all the given values,

t =\frac{781000 - 226000} {4* 1014}

= 1.3875 × 10⁻⁹ seconds.

So, taken to reach the final speed is found to be 1.3 × 10⁻⁹ 8iH..

A jet is travelling at a speed of 1200 km/h and drops cargo from a height of 2.5 km above the ground Calculate the time it takes
OLEGan [10]

a) Time of flight: 22.6 s

To calculate the time it takes for the cargo to reach the ground, we just consider the vertical motion of the cargo.

The vertical position at time t is given by

y(t) = h +u_y t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

h = 2.5 km = 2500 m is the initial height

u_y = 0 is the initial vertical velocity of the cargo

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

The cargo reaches the ground when

y(t) = 0

So substituting it into the equation and solving for t, we find the time of flight of the cargo:

0 = h - \frac{1}{2}gt^2\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(2500)}{9.8}}=22.6 s

b) 7.5 km

The range travelled by the cargo can be calculated by considering its horizontal motion only. In fact, the horizontal motion is a uniform motion, with constant velocity equal to the initial velocity of the jet:

v_x = 1200 km/h \cdot \frac{1000 m/km}{3600 s/h}=333.3 m/s

So the horizontal distance travelled is

d=v_x t

And if we substitute the time of flight,

t = 22.6 s

We find the range of the cargo:

d=(333.3)(22.6)=7533 m = 7.5 km
