Answer:

Vi = 5 m/s

Explanation:

let (a) acceleration = 0.75 m/s²

(t) time = 20 seconds

Vf = final velocity = 72 km/hr (convert to m/s to units consistency = 20 m/s)

find Initial velocity (Vi)

Vf - Vi

a = -----------

t

Vi = Vf - (a * t) = 20 - (0.75 * 20)

Vi = 5 m/s

There is a simple relationship between the energy for a photon of light Ephoton in units of eV (electron volts) and its waveleng

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

$\lambda=620\ nm$

$E_p=1.9682\ eV$

$E_p=206.67\ eV$ is the photon energy of an x-ray

Explanation:

Given:

Energy of photon, $E_p=2\ eV$

Then according to given:

$E_p=\frac{1240}{\lambda}$

$2=\frac{1240}{\lambda}$

$\lambda=620\ nm$ is the wavelength

Again,

Energy of photon, $E_p=?$

wavelength of the light, $\lambda=630\ nm$

$E_p=\frac{1240}{630}$

$E_p=1.9682\ eV$

<u>Now, photon energy for an x-ray:</u>

wavelength, $\lambda=6\ nm$

$E_p=\frac{1240}{6}$

$E_p=206.67\ eV$ is the photon energy of an x-ray

Answer:

$T_2 = 0.592$

Explanation:

Given

$T_1 = 1.48s$

See attachment for connection

Required

Determine the time constant in (b)

First, we calculate the total capacitance (C1) in (a):

The upper two connections are connected serially:

So, we have:

$\frac{1}{C_{up}} = \frac{1}{C} + \frac{1}{C}$

Take LCM

$\frac{1}{C_{up}} = \frac{1+1}{C}$

$\frac{1}{C_{up}}= \frac{2}{C}$

Cross Multiply

$C_{up} * 2 = C * 1$

$C_{up} * 2 = C$

Make $C_{up}$ the subject

$C_{up} = \frac{1}{2}C$

The bottom two are also connected serially.

In other words, the upper and the bottom have the same capacitance.

So, the total (C) is:

$C_1 = 2 * C_{up}$

$C_1 = 2 * \frac{1}{2}C$

$C_1 = C$

The total capacitance in (b) is calculated as:

First, we calculate the parallel capacitance (Cp) is:

$C_p = C+C$

$C_p = 2C$

So, the total capacitance (C2) is:

$\frac{1}{C_2} = \frac{1}{C_p} + \frac{1}{C} + \frac{1}{C}$

$\frac{1}{C_2} = \frac{1}{2C} + \frac{1}{C} + \frac{1}{C}$

Take LCM

$\frac{1}{C_2} = \frac{1 + 2 + 2}{2C}$

$\frac{1}{C_2} = \frac{5}{2C}$

Inverse both sides

$C_2 = \frac{2}{5}C$

Both (a) and (b) have the same resistance.

So:

We have:

Time constant is directional proportional to capacitance:

So:

$T\ \alpha\ C$

Convert to equation

$T\ =kC$

Make k the subject

$k = \frac{T}{C}$

$k = \frac{T_1}{C_1} = \frac{T_2}{C_2}$

$\frac{T_1}{C_1} = \frac{T_2}{C_2}$

Make T2 the subject

$T_2 = \frac{T_1 * C_2}{C_1}$

Substitute values for T1, C1 and C2

$T_2 = \frac{1.48 * \frac{2}{5}C}{C}$

$T_2 = \frac{1.48 * \frac{2}{5}}{1}$

$T_2 = \frac{0.592}{1}$

$T_2 = 0.592$

Hence, the time constance of (b) is 0.592 s

A large mass collides with a stationary, smaller mass. How will the masses behave if the collision is inelastic?

iragen [17]

Logically both masses will collide and well make a reaction. first of all depending on the small mass it will either merge or unite with the big mass or it will bounce away from it . if this happen it will make a reaction that will affect both masses. Hope this helps if it is incorrect please let me know :)
