Answer:

The separation distance between the parallel planes of an atom is hc/2sinθ(EK - EL)

Explanation:

The relationship between energy and wavelength is expressed below:

E = hc/λ

λ = hc/EK - EL

Considering the condition of Bragg's law:

2dsinθ = mλ

For the first order Bragg's law of reflection:

2dsinθ = (1)λ

2dsinθ = hc/EK - EL

d = hc/2sinθ(EK - EL)

Where 'd' is the separation distance between the parallel planes of an atom, 'h' is the Planck's constant, 'c' is the velocity of light, θ is the angle of reflection, 'EK' is the energy of the K shell and 'EL' is the energy of the K shell.

Therefore, the separation distance between the parallel planes of an atom is hc/2sinθ(EK - EL)

disa [49]

Answer:

4.15 m/s

Explanation:

As the total energy must be conserved (neglecting air resistance) the change in gravitational potential energy, must be equal to the change in kinetic energy:

ΔE = ΔK + ΔU =0

If we take as a zero reference level for the gravitational potential energy, the height of the swing seat above the ground, (which is equal to 0.21 m), we can find the initial gravitational energy, considering the height of the point where the seat is released, regarding this point:

h₀ = 1.09 m -0.21 m = 0.88 m

⇒ U₀ = m*g*h₀ = 400 N*0.88 m = 352 J

As Uf = 0, ΔU = Uf -U₀ = -352 J

As the swing starts from rest, K₀=0, so we can say:

ΔK = Kf = \frac{1}{2} *m*vf^{2}  (1)

As ΔK = -ΔU ⇒ ΔK = 352 J (2)

From (1) and (2) we can solve for vf, as follows:

vf = \sqrt{\frac{2*352J}{40.8kg}} = 4.15 m/s

So, when the swing passes through its lowest position, Betty moves at 4.15 m/s.

How is Newton’s 3rd law in baseball?
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:Explanation: According to Newton's third law, the force exerted by the bat hitting the ball will be equal in magnitude but opposite in direction of the force the ball exerts on the bat. Generally, your arms are stiff when you hit the ball forward, so you will not feel the bat "recoiling".

Awnser: 600 meters per hour
Step by step explication:
Covert 14 minutes to a fraction of an hour by dividing it by 60, because 60 is how many minutes in an hour and we need to convert it to a decimals. Then divide the distance, 150 meters by the fraction of an hour, .25 to abstain the velocity (speed) of 600 meters per hour.
