The maximum height is: hmax  = v0² sin² α / 2 g<span>
The horizontal range is: x = v0² sin 2 α / g</span>

So we are given that:

x = 14.5 hmax

v0² sin 2 α / g = 14.5 v0² sin² α / 2 g<span>
<span>7.25 sin² α = 2 sin α cos α    
<span>7.25 sin α = 2 cos α  
7.25 tan α = 2
<span>tan α = 0.27586
<span>α = tan^(-1) 0.27586
α = 15.42°<span>
<span>The angle of projection is 15.42</span></span><span>°</span></span></span></span></span></span>

The maximum wavelength that an electromagnetic wave can have and still eject electrons from a metal surface is 459 nm. What is t
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

2.7067 eV

Explanation:

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{-34}\ m^2kg/s

c = Speed of light = 3\times 10^8\ m/s

\lambda_0 = Threshold wavelength = 459 nm

Work function is given by

W_0=\frac{hc}{\lambda_0}\\\Rightarrow W_0=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{459\times 10^{-9}}\\\Rightarrow W_0=4.33072\times 10^{-19}\ J

Converting to eV

1\ J=\frac{1}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}\ eV

4.33072\times 10^{-19}\ J=4.33072\times 10^{-19}\times \frac{1}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}\ eV=2.7067\ eV

The work function W0 of this metal is 2.7067 eV

A 1.5-kilogram cart initially moves at 2.0 meters per second. It is brought to rest by a constant net force in 0.30 second. What
AnnZ [28]
Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (speed at the end) minus (speed at the beginning.

The cart's acceleration is

                               (0 - 2 m/s) / (0.3 sec)

                           = ( -2 / 0.3 ) (m/s²)  =  -(6 and 2/3) m/s² .

Newton's second law of motion says

                             Force = (mass) x (acceleration) .

For this cart:      Force = (1.5 kg) x ( - 6-2/3 m/s²)

                                       = ( - 1.5 x 20/3 ) (kg-m/s²)

<span>                                       =      </span>- 10 newtons .

<span>The force is negative because it acts opposite to the direction </span>
<span>in which the cart is moving, it causes a negative acceleration, </span>
<span>and it eventually stops the cart.</span>
