Answer:

P = 2.91*10^{-24} kg m/s

\lambda = 2.73 *10^{-10} m

size of atom hat lie in range of 1 to 5 Angstrom

\Delta x = 0.2272 Angstrom

Explanation:

A) MOMENTUM

p = mv

where m is mass of electron

so momentum p can be calculated as

p = 9.11*10^{-31} *3.2*10^{6}

P = 2.91*10^{-24} kg m/s

b) wavelength

\lambda = \frac{h}{mv}

where h is plank constant

so\lambda = \frac{6.626*10^{-34}}{2.91*10^{-24}}

\lambda = 2.73 *10^{-10} m

c) size of atom hat lie in range of 1 to 5 Angstrom

d) from the information given in the question we have

\frac{\Delta v}{v} = 0.1

\Delta v = 0.1 v

we know that

\Delta p *\Delta x = \frac{h}{4\pi}

m \Delta v \Delta x =\frac{h}{4\pi}

\Delta x = \frac{h}{m \Delta v}

\Delta x  = \frac{2.272}{0.1}                      [\Delta v = 0.1 v]

\Delta x = 0.2272 Angstrom

Definition of distance in physics
solniwko [45]

Answer:

Distance is a scalar quantity that refers to "how much ground an object has covered" during its motion. Displacement is a vector quantity that refers to "how far out of place an object is"; it is the object's overall change in position.

A shopper walks westward 2.8 meters in the first 5 minutes and then eastward 9.2 meters in the next 10 minutes. What is the shop
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

12m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance walked westward  = 2.8m

Time of travel  = 5min

Distance walked eastward = 9.2m

Time of travel  = 10min

Unknown:

The total shopper's travel distance  = ?

Solution:

Total distance traveled is the sum of the length of path covered by a body. It is a scalar quantity.

 Total distance = distance walked westward + distance walked eastward

  Total distance  = 2.8m + 9.2m  = 12m

Which has the lowest heat capacity? (values of heat capacities and calculations are unnecessary).
Brrunno [24]

The correct answer is Metals.

Generally, the specific heat of metals is low. Very high specific heat exists in water.A physical feature of matter known as heat capacity or thermal capacity is the quantity of heat that must be applied to an object in order to cause a unit change in temperature. Heat capacity is measured in joules per kelvin (J/K), the SI unit. A broad property is heat capacity. Use the following equation to determine heat capacity: heat capacity = E / T, where E is the quantity of delivered heat energy and T is the change in temperature. The formula would be as follows, for instance, if it takes 2,000 Joules of energy to raise a block's temperature by 5 degrees Celsius: 2,000 Joules per °C is the heat capacity.

Round your answers to one decimal place.this parallel circuit has two resistors at 15 and 40 ohms. what is the total resistance?
lubasha [3.4K]
1) The equivalent resistance of two resistors in parallel is given by:
\frac{1}{R_{eq}}= \frac{1}{R_1}+ \frac{1}{R_2}
so in our problem we have
\frac{1}{R_{eq}} =  \frac{1}{15 \Omega}+ \frac{1}{40 \Omega}=0.092 \Omega^{-1}
and the equivalent resistance is
R_{eq} =  \frac{1}{0.092 \Omega^{-1}}=10.9 \Omega

2) If we have a battery of 12 V connected to the circuit, the current in the circuit will be given by Ohm's law, therefore:
I= \frac{V}{R_{eq}}= \frac{12 V}{10.9 \Omega}=1.1 A

Write the equations of motions​
Sav [38]

Answer:

In physics, equations of motion are equations that describe the behavior of a physical system in terms of its motion as a function of time.[1] More specifically, the equations of motion describe the behaviour of a physical system as a set of mathematical functions in terms of dynamic variables. These variables are usually spatial coordinates and time, but may include momentum components. The most general choice are generalized coordinates which can be any convenient variables characteristic of the physical system.[2] The functions are defined in a Euclidean space in classical mechanics, but are replaced by curved spaces in relativity. If the dynamics of a system is known, the equations are the solutions for the differential equations describing the motion of the dynamics.
