Answer: I think Its the Height is 11.76 Meters (38.582677 Feet) between the bridge and the ground

Explanation: Supposing that where not counting air resistance in the equation, the equation D = ut+\frac{1}{2}  at^{2} states that 1/2 multiplied by earths gravitational acceleration multiplied by the amount of time to reach the bottom: 2.4 seconds equals 11.76 meters of height between the bridge and the ground.

In a Rutherford scattering experiment a target nucleus has a diameter of 1.34×10-14 m. The incoming α particle has a mass of 6.6
Rasek [7]

Answer:

E = 2.5 x 10⁻¹⁴ J

Explanation:

given,

diameter = 1.33 x 10⁻¹⁴ m

mass = 6.64 x 10⁻²⁷ kg

wavelength is equal to diameter

de broglie wavelength equal to diameter

         \lambda = \dfrac{h}{mv}

         1.33 \times 10^{-14}= \dfrac{6.626 \times 10^{-34}}{6.64 \times 10^{-27}\times v}

         v= \dfrac{6.626 \times 10^{-34}}{6.64 \times 10^{-27}\times 1.33 \times 10^{-14}}

              v = 7.5 x 10⁶ m/s

Kinetic energy is equal to

     E = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

     E = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 6.64 \times 10^{-27}\times (7.5\times 10^6)^2

            E = 2.5 x 10⁻¹⁴ J

When light of wavelength 240 nm falls on a cobalt surface, electrons having a maximum kinetic energy of 0.17 eV are emitted. Fin
dusya [7]

Answer:

(a) 5.04 eV (B) 248.14 nm (c) 1.21\times 10^{15}Hz

Explanation:

We have given Wavelength of the light  \lambda = 240 nm

According to plank's rule ,energy of light

E = h\nu = \frac{hc}{}\lambda

E = h\nu = \frac{6.67\times 10^{-34} J.s\times 3\times 10^{8}m/s}{ 240\times 10^{-9} m\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}J/eV}= 5.21 eV

Maximum KE of emitted electron i= 0.17 eV

Part( A) Using Einstien's equation

E = KE_{max}+\Phi _{0}, here \Phi _0 is work function.

\Phi _{0}=E - KE_{max}= 5.21 eV-0.17 eV = 5.04 eV

Part( B) We have to find cutoff wavelength

\Phi _{0} = \frac{hc}{\lambda_{cuttoff}}

\lambda_{cuttoff}= \frac{hc}{\Phi _{0} }

\lambda_{cuttoff}= \frac{6.67\times 10^{-34} J.s\times 3\times 10^{8}m/s}{5.04 eV\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}J/eV }=248.14 nm

Part (C) In this part we have to find the cutoff frequency

\nu = \frac{c}{\lambda_{cuttoff}}= \frac{3\times 10^{8}m/s}{248.14 \times 10^{-19} m }= 1.21\times 10^{15} Hz

A ball is thrown straight up into the air and passes a window 3 seconds after being released. It passes the same window on its w
melomori [17]

The  initial velocity of the ball is 55.125 m/s.

<h3>Initial velocity of the ball</h3>

The initial velocity of the ball is calculated as follows;

During upward motion

h = vi - ¹/₂gt²

h = vi - 0.5(9.8)(3²)

h = vi - 44.1 ----------------- (1)

During downward motion

h = vi + ¹/₂gt²

h = 0 + 0.5(9.8)(1.5)²

h = 11.025 ----------- (2)

solve (1) and (2) together, to determine the initial velocity of the ball

11.025 = vi - 44.1

vi = 11.025 + 44.1

vi = 55.125 m/s

Thus, the  initial velocity of the ball is 55.125 m/s.

How are weather from ice and plants different from weathering from wind and water?
DENIUS [597]
“Weathering is the breaking down of rocks, soil and minerals as well as wood and artificial materials through contact with the Earth’s atmosphere, biota and waters. Weathering occurs in situ, roughly translated to: “with no movement”, and thus should not be confused with erosion, which involves the movement of rocks and minerals by agents such as water, ice, snow, wind, waves and gravity and then being transported and deposited in other locations.”

Weathering processes are of three main types: mechanical, organic and chemical weathering.
