The calculation for kinetic energy is this

KE = 1/2mv^2

KE = 1/2(50)(7^2)

KE = 1/2(49•50)

KE = 1225 kgm^2/s^2.

Or simply 1225 J.

She possess this much energy when she runs.

A photoelectric effect experiment finds a stopping potential of 1.93 V when light of wavelength 200 nm is used to illuminate the

GenaCL600 [577]

a) Zinc (work function: 4.3 eV)

The equation for the photoelectric effect is:

$E=\phi + K$ (1)

where

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}$ is the energy of the incident photon, with

h = Planck constant

c = speed of light

$\lambda$ = wavelength

$\phi$ = work function of the metal

K = maximum kinetic energy of the photoelectrons emitted

The stopping potential (V) is the potential needed to stop the photoelectrons with maximum kinetic energy: so, the corresponding electric potential energy must be equal to the maximum kinetic energy,

$eV=K$

So we can rewrite (1) as

$E=\phi + eV$

where we have:

$\lambda=200 nm = 2\cdot 10^{-7} m$

V = 1.93 V

e is the electron charge

First of all, let's find the energy of the incident photon:

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{2\cdot 10^{-7}m}=9.95\cdot 10^{-19} J$

Converting into electronvolts,

$E=\frac{9.95\cdot 10^{-19}J}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J/eV}=6.22 eV$

And now we can solve eq.(1) to find the work function of the metal:

$\phi = E-eV=6.22 eV-1.93 eV=4.29 eV$

so, the metal is most likely zinc, which has a work function of 4.3 eV.

b) The stopping potential is still 1.93 V

Explanation:

The intensity of the incident light is proportional to the number of photons hitting the surface of the metal. However, the energy of the photons depends only on their frequency, so it does not depend on the intensity of the light. This means that the term E in eq.(1) does not change.

Moreover, the work function of the metal is also constant, since it depends only on the properties of the material: so $\phi$ is also constant in the equation. As a result, the term (eV) must also be constant, and therefore V, the stopping potential, is constant as well.

Why we cannt cook food on high attitude (like mountain where exist low temperatures )?

zloy xaker [14]

Cooking takes longer because water and other liquids evaporate faster and boil at lower temperatures.At sea level water boils at 212degrees Fahrenheit but at an altitude of 7,500 feet, it boils at about 198 degrees. Foods that are prepared by boiling or simmering will cook at a lower temperature and it will take longer to cook them. Hope this helps!! ; )

You are an industrial engineer with a shipping company. As part of the package- handling system, a small box with mass 1.60 kg i

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

v = 0.84m/s, v(max)= 0.997m/s

Explanation:

Initial work done by the spring, where c is the compression = 0.28m:

$W_s = \frac{1}{2}kc^2$

Work lost to friction:

$W_f =\mu mg(c-x)$

Energy:

$E = W_s-W_f=\frac{1}{2}kc^2 -\mu mg(c-x)=\frac{1}{2}mv^2+\frac{1}{2}kx^2$

(a) Solve for v:

$v=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}(c^2-x^2)-2\mu g(c-x)}$

(b) Solve $\frac{dv}{dx}=0$ for x:

$\frac{dv}{dx}=\frac{\mu g-\frac{k}{m}x}{\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}(c^2-x^2)-2\mu g(c-x)}}$

$\frac{dv}{dx}=0$ if:

$\mu g-\frac{k}{m}x = 0$

$x_{max} = \frac{\mu gm}{k}$

$v_{max}=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}c^2-2\mu gc+(\mu g)^2\frac{m}{k}}$

When you take your 1900-kg car out for a spin, you go around a corner of radius 55 m with a speed of 15 m/s. The coefficient of

pentagon [3]

Answer:

7772.72N

Explanation:

When u draw your FBD, you realize you have 3 forces (ignore the force the car produces), gravity, normal force and static friction. You also realize that gravity and normal force are in our out of the page (drawn with a frame of reference above the car). So that leaves you with static friction in the centripetal direction.

Now which direction is the static friction, assume that it is pointing inward so

Fc=Fs=mv²/r=1900*15²/55=427500/55=7772.72N

Since the car is not skidding we do not have kinetic friction so there can only be static friction. One reason we do not use μFn is because that is the formula for maximum static friction, and the problem does not state there is maximum static friction.
