E = electric field = 1 x 10³ N/C

q = charge = 4 x 10⁻⁶ C

d = distance = 0.10 m

electric potential energy is given as

U = q E d

inserting the above values

U = (4 x 10⁻⁶ ) (1 x 10³) (0.1)

U = 4 x 10⁻⁴ J

when distance = d = 1.3 m

electric potential energy is given as

U = q E d

inserting the above values

U = (4 x 10⁻⁶ ) (1 x 10³) (1.3)

U = 5.2 x 10⁻³ J

a hot iron bar is placed 100ml 22C water. the water temperature rises to 32C. how much heat did the water gain and how much heat

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

Water gained: 10
Iron lost: -10

Explanation:

Given: Hot iron bar is placed 100ml 22C water, the water temperature rises to 32C

To find: How much heat the water gain, how much heat did the iron bar lost

Formula:Q = change T x C x M

Solve:

<u>How much heat water gained</u>

Initial heat = 22, then rose to 32. To find how much heat the water gained, simply subtract the current heat by the initial heat.

32 - 22 = 10

The water gained 10 amounts of heat.

<u>How much heat Iron lost</u>

Current heat = 32, then dropped to 22. To find how much heat the Iron lost, simply subtract the initial heat by the current heat.

22 - 32 = -10

The Iron lost -10 amounts of water.

The minimum frequency of light needed to eject electrons from a metal is called the threshold frequency, ????0 . Find the minimu

Reptile [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Threshold frequency = 4.17 x 10¹⁴ Hz .

minimum energy required = hν where h is plank's constant and ν is frequency .

E = 6.6 x 10⁻³⁴ x 4.17 x 10¹⁴

= 27.52 x 10⁻²⁰ J .

wavelength of radiation falling = 245 x 10⁻⁹ m

Energy of this radiation = hc / λ

c is velocity of light and λ is wavelength of radiation .

= 6.6 x 10⁻³⁴ x 3 x 10⁸ / 245 x 10⁻⁹

= .08081 x 10⁻¹⁷ J

= 80.81 x 10⁻²⁰ J

kinetic energy of electrons ejected = energy of falling radiation - threshold energy

= 80.81 x 10⁻²⁰ - 27.52 x 10⁻²⁰

= 53.29 x 10⁻²⁰ J .

a container of water is knocked off a 10.0 meter high ledge with a horizontal velocity of 1.00 meters/second. calculate the time

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

1.43 s

Explanation:

The time it takes for the container to reach the ground is determined only by the vertical motion of the container, which is a free-fall motion, so a uniformly accelerated motion with a constant acceleration of g=9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground.

The vertical distance covered by an object in free fall is given by

$S=ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2$

where

u = 0 is the initial vertical speed

t is the time

a= g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration

since u=0, it can be rewritten as

$S=\frac{1}{2}gt^2$

And substituting S=10.0 m, we can solve for t, to find the duration of the fall:

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2S}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(10.0 m)}{9.8 m/s^2}}=1.43 s$

3. A certain wire, 3 m long, stretches by 1.2 mm when under tension of 200 N. By how much does

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

The extension of the second wire is $e_2 = 0.0024 \ m = 2.4 mm$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The length of the wire is $L = 3 \ m$

The elongation of the wire is $e = 1.2mm = \frac{1.2}{1000} = 0.0012 m$

The tension is $F = 200 \ N$

The length of the second wire is $L_2 = 6 \ m$

Generally the Young's modulus(Y) of this material is

$Y = \frac{stress}{strain }$

Where $stress = \frac{F}{A}$

Where A is the area which is evaluated as

$A = \pi r^2$

and $strain = \frac{extention}{length} = \frac{e}{L}$

So

$Y = \frac{\frac{F}{\pi r^2 } }{ \frac{e}{L} }$

Since the wire are of the same material Young's modulus(Y) is constant

So we have

$\frac{F * L }{r^2 e} = \pi * Y = constant$

$F * L = constant * r^2 e$

Now the ration between the first and the second wire is

$\frac{F_1}{F_2} * \frac{L_1}{L_2} = \frac{r*2_1}{r^2} * \frac{e_1}{e_2}$

Since tension , radius are constant

We have

$\frac{L_1}{L_2} = \frac{e_1}{e_2}$

substituting values

$\frac{3}{6} = \frac{0.0012}{e_2}$

$0.5 e_2 = 0.0012$

$e_2 = \frac{ 0.0012 }{0.5}$

$e_2 = 0.0024 \ m = 2.4 mm$
