What is the temperature if the peak of a blackbody spectrum is at 19.0 nm ?
nlexa [21]

Answer:

1.52 * 10⁵ K

Explanation:

When the temperature of a blackbody radiator increases, the overall radiated energy increases and the peak of the radiation curve moves to shorter wavelengths. When the maximum is evaluated from the Planck radiation formula, the product of the peak wavelength and the temperature is found to be a constant.  

By Wien's Law,

λ * T = 2.898 * 10⁻³ mK

∴ T = 2.898 * 10⁻³/λ

Given λ = 19 nm = 19 * 10⁻⁹

T = 2.898 * 10⁻³ / 19 * 10⁻⁹

  =1.52 * 10⁵ K

Q5: An ice skater moving at 12 m/s coasts
ExtremeBDS [4]

u = 0.077

Explanation:

Work done by friction is

Wf = ∆KE + ∆PE

-umgx = ∆KE,. ∆PE =0 (level ice surface)

-umgx = KEf - KEi = -(1/2)mv^2

Solving for u,

u = v^2/2gx

= (12 m/s)^2/2(9.8 m/s^2)(95 m)

= 0.077

A stone thrown horizontally from a height of 5.72 m hits the ground at a distance of 13.30 m. Calculate the initial speed of the
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

initial velocity=12.31 m/s

Final speed= 16.234 m/s

Explanation:

Given Data

height=5.72 m

distance=13.30 m

To Find

Initial Speed=?

Solution

Use the following equation to determine the time of the stone is falling.  

d = vi ×t   ½ ×9.8 × t²

Where  

d = 5.72m and vi = 0 m/s

so  

5.72 = ½× 9.8 ×t²

t = √(5.72 ÷ 4.9)

t=1.08 seconds

To determine the initial horizontal velocity use the following equation.

d = v×t

13.30 = v ×1.08

v = 13.30 ÷ 1.08

v=12.31 m/s

To determine stone’s final vertical velocity use the following equation

vf = vi+9.8×t............vi=0 m/s

vf = 9.8×1.08

vf= 10.584 m/s

To determine stone’s final speed use the following equation  

Final speed = √[Horizontal velocity²+Final vertical velocity²]

Final speed = √{(12.31 m/s)²+(10.584 m/s)²}

Final speed= 16.234 m/s

What is an essential characteristic of an object in equilibrium?
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Zero Acceleration.

Explanation:

If an object is at equilibrium, then the forces are balanced. Balanced is the key word that is used to describe equilibrium situations. Thus, the net force is zero and the acceleration is 0 m/s/s. Objects at equilibrium must have an acceleration of 0 m/s/s.
