A 70.0 kg man jumping from a window lands in an elevated fire rescue net 11.0 m below the window. He momentarily stops when he h

as stretched the net by 1.50 m. Assuming that mechanical energy is conserved during this process and that the net functions like an ideal spring, find the elastic potential energy of the net when it is stretched by 1.50 m. (10 pts)

Answer:

70.15 Joule

Explanation:

mass of man, m = 70 kg

intial length, l = 11 m

extension, Δl = 1.5 m

Let K is the spring constant.

In the equilibrium position

mg = K l

70 x 9.8 = K x 11

K = 62.36 N/m

Potential energy stored, U = 0.5 x K x Δl²

U = 0.5 x 62.36 x 1.5 x 1.5

U = 70.15 Joule

Explain what physicists mean when they say that the de Broglie wavelength relates to the probability distribution wave function.
Ksju [112]

Answer:

Because it unites particle and wave nature.

Explanation:

De Broglie wavelength can be defined as the,

\lambda =\frac{h}{mv}

Here, h is planks constant, m is the mass of electron, v is the velocity of electron.

Since the de Broglie wavelength can behave like the photon wavelength with respect to the  momentum

It unites particles and waves nature ,so De Broglie wavelengths is probability waves associated with the wave function according to physicists.

Name two kinds of longitudinal waves and explain how you know they are longitudinal.
dezoksy [38]
A transverse wave and a longitudinal wave.

Transverse:wave particles move at medium speed in perpendicular to the direction that the waves move

Longitudinal:wave particles move at medium speed in parallel to the direction that the wave moves
