Explanation:
It is given that,
Mass of a bungee jumper is 65 kg
The time period of the oscillation is 38 s, hitting a low point eight more times.It means its time period is
After many oscillations, he finally comes to rest 25.0 m below the level of the bridge.
For an oscillating object, the time period is given by :
k = spring stiffness constant
So,
When the cord is in air,
mg=kx
x = the extension in the cord
So, the unstretched length of the bungee cord is equal to 25 m - 5.6 m = 19.4 m
Answer:
Minimum number of photons required is 1.35 x 10⁵
Explanation:
Given:
Wavelength of the light, λ = 850 nm = 850 x 10⁻⁹ m
Energy of one photon is given by the relation :
....(1)
Here h is Planck's constant and c is speed of light.
Let N be the minimum number of photons needed for triggering receptor.
Minimum energy required for triggering receptor, E₁ = 3.15 x 10⁻¹⁴ J
According to the problem, energy of N number of photons is equal to the energy required for triggering, that is,
E₁ = N x E
Put equation (1) in the above equation.
Substitute 3.15 x 10⁻¹⁴ J for E₁, 850 x 10⁻⁹ m for λ, 6.6 x 10⁻³⁴ J s for h and 3 x 10⁸ m/s for c in the above equation.
N = 1.35 x 10⁵
