Answer:

0.16 m

Explanation:

A rectangular gasoline tank can hold 50.0 kg of gasoline when full, and the density of gasoline is 6.8 × 10² kg/m³. We can find the volume occupied by the gasoline (volume of the tank).

50.0 kg × (1 m³/6.8 × 10² kg) = 0.074 m³

The volume of the rectangular tank is:

volume = width × length × depth

depth = volume / width × length

depth = 0.074 m³ / 0.500 m × 0.900 m

depth = 0.16 m

To solve this problem we will apply the principles of conservation of energy, for which we have to preserve the initial kinetic energy as elastic potential energy at the end of the movement. If said equality is maintained then we can affirm that,

\text{Initial Energy}=\text{Final Energy}

\frac{1}{2} mv^2=\frac{1}{2} kx^2

Here,

m = mass

k = Spring constant

x = Displacement

v = Velocity

Rearranging to find the velocity,

mv^2 = kx^2

v^2 = \frac{kx^2}{m}

v = \sqrt{\frac{kx^2}{m}}

Our values are,

m = 5.22*10^4kg

k = 4.58*10^5N/m

x = 32cm = 0.32m

Replacing our values we have,

v = \sqrt{\frac{(4.58*10^5)(5.22*10^4)}{0.32}}

v = 2.733*10^5m/s

Therefore the velocity is 2.733*10^5m/s

A LED light source contains a 0.5-Watts GaAs (Eg =1.43 eV) LED. Assuming that 0.12% of the electric energy is converted to emiss
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

energy emitted by  source per second  = .5 J

Eg = 1.43 eV .

Energy converted into radiation = .5 x .12 = .06 J

energy of one photon = 1.43 eV

= 1.43 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

= 2.288 x 10⁻¹⁹ J .

no of photons generated = .06 / 2.288 x 10⁻¹⁹

= 2.6223 x 10¹⁷

wavelength of photon λ = 1275 / 1.43 nm

= 891.6 nm .

momentum of photon = h / λ  ;  h is plank's constant

= 6.6 x 10⁻³⁴ / 891.6 x 10⁻⁹

= .0074 x 10⁻²⁵ J.s

Total momentum of all the photons generated

= .0074 x 10⁻²⁵  x 2.6223 x 10¹⁷

= .0194 x 10⁻⁸ Js

b ) spectral width in terms of wavelength = 30 nm

frequency width = ?

n = c / λ  , n is frequency , c is velocity of light and λ is wavelength

differentiating both sides

dn = c x dλ / λ²

given dλ = 30 nm

λ = 891.6 nm

dn = 3 x 10⁸ x 30 x 10⁻⁹ / ( 891.6  x 10⁻⁹ )²

= 11.3 x 10¹² Hz .

c )

10 nW = 10  x 10⁻⁹ W

= 10⁻⁸ W .

energy of 50 dB

50 dB = 5 B

I / I₀ = 10⁵   ;   decibel scale is logarithmic , I is energy of sound having dB = 50 and  I₀ = 10⁻¹² W /s

I = I₀ x 10⁵

= 10⁻¹² x 10⁵

= 10⁻⁷ W

= 10 x 10⁻⁸ W

power required

= 10⁻⁸ + 10 x 10⁻⁸ W

= 11  x 10⁻⁸ W.

Explain briefly how solar energy is used to generate electricity
valkas [14]

Answer:

Solar radiation may be converted directly into electricity by solar cells (photovoltaic cells). In such cells, a small electric voltage is generated when light strikes the junction between a metal and a semiconductor (such as silicon) or the junction between two different semiconductors.
