Answer:

When an electron is hit by a photon of light, it absorbs the quanta of energy the photon was carrying and moves to a higher energy state. One way of thinking about this higher energy state is to imagine that the electron is now moving faster, (it has just been "hit" by a rapidly moving photon)

A photon is a quantum of EM radiation. Its energy is given by E = hf and is related to the frequency f and wavelength λ of the radiation by. E=hf=hcλ(energy of a photon) E = h f = h c λ (energy of a photon) , where E is the energy of a single photon and c is the speed of light.

Student 1 lifts a box with a force of 500 N and sets it on a tabletop 1.2 m high. Student 2 pushes an identical box up a 5 m ram

Troyanec [42]

The student who did the most work is student 2 with 2500 Joules.

Given the following data:

Force 1 = 500 Newton

Distance 1 = 1.2 meter

Force 2 = 500 Newton

Distance 2 = 5 meter

To determine which of the students did the most work:

Mathematically, the work done by an object is given by the formula;

$Work\;done = Force \times distance$

For student 1:

$Work\;done = 500 \times 1.2$

Work done = 600 Joules

For student 2:

$Work\;done = 500 \times 5$

Work done = 2500 Joules.

Therefore, the student who did the most work is student 2 with 2500 Joules.

Answer:

only the weight of the ball will act on the ball

Explanation: There is no contact force on the ball. Also there is no air resistance on the ball so the friction force on the ball due to air is not shown

Question 7 (1 point)

ioda

Answer:

1150 secs

distance = speed x time

time = distance / speed

230,000 / 200 = 1150

Mary travelled 70 miles/hour due north. This is an example of what?

kolezko [41]

I believe this would be an example of Mary's velocity. We have her speed and direction which is all you need to find velocity.

Thermal expansion results in

PIT_PIT [208]

Thermal expansion is the tendency of matter to change in shape, area, and volume in response to a change in temperature, through heat transfer. Temperature is a monotonic function of the average molecular kinetic energy of a substance. When a substance is heated, the kinetic energy of its molecules increases.so this can result in.......heat
