The speed of the electron is 1.3 * 10^6 m/s

<h3>What is the velocity?</h3>

We know that when the electron gun is shot, the potential energy of the electron is converted into kinetic energy. The mass of the electron is given as 9.11 * 10^-31 Kg.

The energy of the electron is;

eV = 1e * 5V = ev or 8 * 10^-19 J

Given that E = 1/2mv^2

8 * 10^-19  = 0.5 *  9.11 * 10^-31 * v^2

v = √ 8 * 10^-19/0.5 *  9.11 * 10^-31

v = √1.75 * 10^12

v = 1.3 * 10^6 m/s

A 2137 kg car moving east at 12.91 m/s collides with a 3264 kg car moving north. The cars stick together and move as a unit afte
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

The speed of the 3264 kg car before collision is 6.32 m/s

Explanation:

Let first car, mass m₁, moving east be moving with velocity, v₁ and second car, mass m₂, moving north be moving with velocity, v₂. Let the velocity of the two cars after collision be v₃

In a Collison (whether elastic or inelastic), momentum is always conserved.

Momentum before collision = momentum after collision.

Momentum before collision = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

v₁ = (12.91î) m/s in vector form, m₁ = 2137 kg

v₂ = ?, v₂ = (v₂j) m/s in vector form, m₂ = 3264 kg

Momentum before collision = (2137)(12.91î) + (3264)(v₂j) = (27590î + 3264v₂j) kgm/s

Momentum after collision = (total mass of the cars after collision) × (velocity of the stuck-together cars after collision)

Total mass of the cars after collision = m₁ + m₂ = 2137 + 3264 = 5401 kg

Velocity after collision, v₃ = 6.38 m/s In the N36.8°E direction, put in vector form,

v₃ = (6.38 cos 36.8°î + 6.38 sin 36.8°j)

v₃ = (5.11î + 3.82j) m/s

Momentum after collision = 5401 (5.11î + 3.82j) = (27590î + 20641.4j) kgm/s

Momentum before collision = momentum after collision.

(27590î + 3264v₂j) = (27590î + 20641.4j)

Comparing components

3264v₂ = 20641.4j

v₂ = 6.32 m/s

Hope this Helps!!!

A projector is placed on the ground 22 ft. away from a projector screen. A 5.2 ft. tall person is walking toward the screen at a
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

y = 67.6 feet,   y = 114.4/ (22 - 3t)

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use that light travels in a straight line and some trigonometric relationships, the symbols are in the attached diagram

Large triangle Projector up to the screen

         tan θ = y / L

For the small triangle. Projector up to the person

         tan θ = y₀ / (L-d)

The angle is the same, so we equate the two equations

         y₀ / (L -d) = y / L

         y = y₀  L / (L-d)

The distance from the screen (d), we look for it with kinematics

         v = d / t

        d = v t

we replace

         y = y₀ L / (L - v t)

         y = 5.2 22 / (22 - 3 t)

         y = 114.4 (22 - 3t)⁻¹

This is the equation of the shadow height change as a function of time

For the suggested distance the shadow has a height of

           y = 114.4 / (22-13)

           y = 67.6 feet

If the wavelength of a wave is quadrupied then what happens to the frequency of the wqve(Assume speed is constant) ​
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

What happens to the wavelength of a wave if you double the frequency?

If the frequency of a wave is increased, what happens to its wavelength? As the frequency increases, the wavelength decreases. 2. If the frequency is doubled, the wavelength is only half as long.

levacccp [35]

Answer:

The minimum speed must the car must be 13.13 m/s.

Explanation:

The radius of the loop is 17.6 m. We need to find the minimum speed must the car traverse the loop so that the rider does not fall out while upside down at the top.

We know that, mg be the weight of car and rider, which is equal to the centripetal force.

mg = \dfrac{mv^2}{r}\\v = \sqrt{rg}\\v = \sqrt{17.6\times 9.8}\\v = 13.13\ m/s\\

So, the minimum speed must the car must be 13.13 m/s.
