Answer:

The value of de Broglie wavelength is 14.0 pm

Explanation:

Given;

mass of proton, m = 1.673 x 10⁻²⁷ kg

velocity of the proton, v = 2.83 x 10⁴ m/s

De Broglie wavelength is given as;

$\lambda = \frac{h}{mv}$

where;

h is planck's constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ kgm²/s

m is mass of the proton

v is the velocity of the proton

$\lambda = \frac{6.626*10^{-34}}{(1.673*10^{-27})(2.83*10^4})} \\\\\lambda = 1.40 *10^{-11} \ m\\\\\lambda = 14.0 \ pm$

Therefore, the value of de Broglie wavelength is 14.0 pm

A 20-kg barrel is rolled up a 20-m ramp to the back of a truck whose floor is 5.0 m above the ground. What work is done in loadi

oee [108]

The angle of inclination is calculated using sin function,

sin θ = 5 m / 20 m = 0.25

θ = 14.4775°

The net force exerted is then calculated:
F net = m g sin θ = 20 * 9.8 * 0.25

F net = 49N

Work is product of net force and distance:
W = F net * d = 49 * 20

Work = 980 J

Light of wavelength 500 nm is incident perpendicularly from air on a film 10-4cm thick and of refractive index 1.375. Part of th

Marysya12 [62]

Answer

given,

wavelength (λ)= 500 n m

thickness of film= 10⁻⁴ cm

refractive index = μ = 1.375

distance traveled is double which is equal to 2 x 10⁻⁴ cm

a) Number of wave

$N = \dfrac{d}{\mu\lambda}$

$N = \dfrac{2 \times 10^{-6}}{1.375\times 500 \times 10^{-9}}$

N = 2.91

N = 3

b) phase difference is equal to

Reflection from the first surface has a 180° (½λ) phase change.

There is no phase change for the 2nd surface reflection and there is no phase difference for the 2nd wave having traveled an exact whole number of waves.

net phase difference = $180^0\times \dfrac{3}{2}$

= 270°

A bottle lying on the windowsill falls off and takes 4.95 seconds to reach the ground. The distance from the windowsill to the g

Liula [17]

The distance an object falls from rest through gravity is
D = (1/2) (g) (t²)
   Distance = (1/2 acceleration of gravity) x (square of the falling time)

We want to see how the time will be affected
if ' D ' doesn't change but ' g ' does.
So I'm going to start by rearranging the equation
to solve for ' t '.                                                      D = (1/2) (g) (t²)

Multiply each side by 2 :         2 D =            g    t²

Divide each side by ' g ' :      2 D/g =                  t²

Square root each side:        t = √ (2D/g)

Looking at the equation now, we can see what happens to ' t ' when only ' g ' changes:

-- ' g ' is in the denominator; so bigger 'g' ==> shorter 't'

   and smaller 'g' ==> longer 't' .--

They don't change by the same factor, because 1/g is inside the square root. So 't' changes the same amount as √1/g does.

Gravity on the surface of the moon is roughly 1/6 the value of gravity on the surface of the Earth.

So we expect ' t ' to increase by √6 = 2.45 times.

It would take the same bottle (2.45 x 4.95) = 12.12 seconds to roll off the same window sill and fall 120 meters down to the surface of the Moon.
