Answer:
4 m/
Explanation:
From Equilibrium of forces, The Tension in string is cancelled by the Weight (product of mass and acceleration due to gravity) of the body acting downwards.
The Net force = Mass * Acceleration.
Since Net Force = 20 Newton, Mass = 5kg, therefore;
20 = 5kg * acceleration. Dividing the RHS and LHS of the equation by 5, we have;
Acceleration = which gives 4.
Note: RHS means Right Hand Side.
LHS means Left Hand Side.
The energy carried by a single photon of frequency f is given by:
where
is the Planck constant. In our problem, the frequency of the photon is 
, and by using these numbers we can find the energy of the photon:
where
The distance covered by the acorn is 3.136 m.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The time taken for the acorn to hit the ground is 0.8 s. As it is a free fall, the acorn will be completely under the influence of gravity. So the acceleration will be acceleration due to gravity.
Then using the second law of equation,
Since the initial velocity and time is zero, then the time taken to reach the ground is stated as 0.8 s, so
So the distance covered by the acorn is 3.136 m.
