Answer:

a = -4/5 m/s^2

Explanation:

Acceleration = change in velocity / time

change in velocity = final velocity - initial velocity

a = (20 m/s - 60 m/s) / 50 s

a = -40 m/s / 50 s

a = -4/5 m/s^2

hope this helps! <3

Answer:

<u>- 4/5 m/s^2 </u>

Explanation:

It is going from 60 to 20 m/s   so ACCELERATION is negative

   acceleration = change in velocity / time

                          = -40 m/s / 50 s =  <u>- 4/5 m/s^2 </u>

A diffraction grating has 500 slits/mm. What is the longest wavelength of light for which there will be a third-order maximum?
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

The longest wavelength of light  is 666.7 nm

Explanation:

The general form of the grating equation is

mλ = d(sinθi + sinθr)

where;

m is third-order maximum = 3

λ is the wavelength,

d is the slit spacing (m/slit)

θi  is the incident angle

θr is the diffracted angle

Note: at longest wavelength, sinθi + sinθr = 1

λ = d/m

d = 1/500 slits/mm

λ = 1 mm/(500 *3) = 1mm/1500 = 666.7 X 10⁻⁶ mm = 666.7 nm

Therefore, the longest wavelength of light  is 666.7 nm

Why won't a very bright beam of red light impart more energy to an ejected electron than a feeble beam of violet light?
bearhunter [10]
This is related to the energy carried by photons of light the energy of each photon is proportional to the frequency of the light since red light has a lower frequency then violet light and photons of red light carry less energy than the photons of violet light as a result the red protons eject electrons that have less energy than the ejected electrons by Violet photons

Determine the magnitude of the electrostatic force on a 0.06000 C charged object when it is placed in an electric field of magni
joja [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Use the following equation:

E=\frac{q}{F} and solve for F:

F=\frac{q}{E} and filling in:

F=\frac{.0600}{1500}

F = 4.0 × 10^{-4 N
