The distance an object falls, from rest, in gravity is
D = (1/2) (G) (T²)
'T' is the number seconds it falls.
In this problem,
0.92 meter = (1/2) (9.8) (T²)
Divide each side by 4.9 : 0.92 / 4.9 = T²
Take the square root
of each side: √(0.92/4.9) = T
0.433 sec = T
The horizontal speed doesn't make a bit of difference in
how long it takes to reach the floor. BUT ... if you want to
know how far from the table the pencil lands, you can find
that with the horizontal speed.
The pencil is in the air for 0.433 second.
In that time, it travels
(0.433s) x (1.4 m/s) = 0.606 meter
from the edge of the table.
b) accelerate to the left as much more pressure is pulling it in that direction and on the right however , there is less force .
Which picture are you talking about?
Answer:
Red photons have the least amount of energy
Explanation:
The relationship between the photon energy and the color of light is given by:
where
E is the energy
h is the Planck constant
c is the speed of light
is the wavelength (which determines the color of light)
As we see from the equation, energy and wavelength are inversely proportional: this means that the longer the wavelength, the lower the energy, and viceversa.
Among the colors in the visible light spectrum, red is the color with longest wavelength (620-750 nm) and violet is the color with shortest wavelength (380-450 nm). This means that red photons have the least amount of energy, while violet photons have the greatest amount of energy.
So the correct choice is
Red photons have the least amount of energy
Now let’s say you’re on the Moon. If you were to drop a hammer and a feather from the same height, which would hit the ground first?
Trick Question! On the moon both objects would hit the ground at the same time. On Earth, the hammer lands first.
So yeah, the student is right. Galileo gave us this theory long ago.
