Explanation:

The velocity of an object is given by the rate of change of position as :

$v=\dfrac{dx}{dt}$

where

$\dfrac{dx}{dt}$ is the rate of change of velocity

From the position time graph of an object, the velocity of an object can be calculated using the slope of the graph. From the attached figure it is clear that the velocity is given by :

$m=\dfrac{x_2-x_1}{t_2-t_1}$

$m=\dfrac{20-10}{2-1}$

m = 10

i.e.

Velocity, v = 10 m/s

Hence, to calculate the velocity of an object the slope of the position vs time graph should be calculated

zimovet [89]

Answer:

λ = 3 10⁻⁷ m, UV laser

Explanation:

The diffraction phenomenon is described by the expression

a sin θ = m λ

let's use trigonometry

tan θ = y / L

as in this phenomenon the angles are small

tan θ = $\frac{sin \ \theta}{cos \ \theta}$ = sin θ

sin θ = y / L

we substitute

a y / L = m λ

let's apply this equation to the initial data

a 0.04 / L = 1 600 10⁻⁹

a / L = 1.5 10⁻⁵

now they tell us that we change the laser and we have y = 0.04 m for m = 2

a 0.04 / L = 2 λ

a / L = 50 λ

we solve the two expression is

1.5 10⁻⁵ = 50 λ

λ = 1.5 10⁻⁵ / 50

λ = 3 10⁻⁷ m

Compare and contrast the energy transfer of a roller coaster to that of a pendulum

Softa [21]

When the pendulum and roller coaster move to the top, its has more potential energy whereas when comes to the bottom has more kinetic energy.

<h3>Compare and contrast the energy transfer of a roller coaster to that of a pendulum:</h3><h3>What is the transfer of energy in a roller coaster?</h3>

The transfer of potential energy to kinetic energy occur when the roller coaster move along the track. As the motor pulls the cars to the top, the body has more potential energy whereas when the body comes to the bottom , it has kinetic energy in the object.

<h3>What is the energy transfer in a pendulum?</h3>

As a pendulum swings, its potential energy changes to kinetic energy and kinetic energy changes into potential energy. At the top more potential energy is present.

So we can conclude that When the pendulum and roller coaster move to the top, its has more potential energy whereas when comes to the bottom has more kinetic energy.

What is the change in potential energy if the distance separating the electron and proton is increased to 1.0 nm?

Vlada [557]

Answer:

$Ep=-2.3*10^{-19}J$

Explanation:

The change in potential energy can be expressed as:

$Ep=K.\frac{q1.q2}{r}$

where K is a constant with a value of $9*10^{9}\frac{N.m^{2}}{C^{2}}$ , q1 and q2 are the charges of the proton and the electron and r is the distance between them.
