Answer:
Explanation:
The equation for this is
where f is the frequency, v is the velocity, and lambda is the wavelength. Filling in:
and
which means that
the wavelength is 1.37 m, rounded to the correct number of significant digits.
Answer:
12 J
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Mass (m) = 7.6 kg
Distance (d) = 6 m
Velocity (v) = 5 m/s
Force (F) = 2 N
Workdone (Wd) =.?
Workdone can be defined as the product of force and distance moved in the direction of the force. Mathematically, it is expressed as:
Workdone = Force × distance
Wd = F × d
With the above formula, we can obtain the workdone as follow:
Distance (d) = 6 m
Force (F) = 2 N
Workdone (Wd) =.?
Wd = F × d
Wd = 2 × 6
Wd = 12 J
Thus, the workdone is 12 J
During a climb UP the mountain, gravity does NO work on the climber.
Actually, it's more correct to say that gravity does NEGATIVE work
on him. The climber has to DO the positive work to haul himself up.
Work = (mass) x (gravity) x (height) .
For the guy in this problem:
Work = (67 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (3,500 meters)
= 2,298,100 joules.
If he eats no candy bars on the way, and completely depends on
his stored body fat for the energy, then he'll burn off
(2,298,100 joules) / (3.8 x 10⁷ joules/kg)
= 0.06 kg of fat.
That's only about 2.1 ounces. We KNOW he'll lose more weight than that,
climbing 11,000 feet. That's because climbing is pretty inefficient.
In addition to the potential energy you have to give your body weight,
you also have to expend energy breathing, digesting, metabolizing,
and sweating.
