Explanation:

It is given that,

Momentum of the photon, p=5.55\times 10^{-27}\ kg-m/s

(a) We need to find the wavelength of this photon. It can be calculated using the concept of De-broglie wavelength.

\lambda=\dfrac{h}{p}

h is the Planck's constant

\lambda=\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-34}\ Js}{5.55\times 10^{-27}\ kg-m/s}

\lambda=1.2\times 10^{-7}\ m

or

\lambda=120\ nm

(b) The wavelength lies in the group of ultraviolet rays. The wavelength of UV rays lies in between 400 nm to 10 nm.

A student of weight 659 N rides a steadily rotating Ferris wheel (the student sits upright). At the highest point, the magnitude
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

a) The student feel light

b) Nbottom = 758 N

c) N'top= 236 N

d) N'bottom= 1055 N

Explanation:

a) W= 659N , Ntop= 560N

W > Ntop ---> Student feel less weight

b)   Top:

∑F= W - Ntop = m.v²/R

m.v²/R = 659N - 560 N = 99 N

Bottom:

∑F= Nbottom- W = m.v²/R

Nbottom= W + m.v²/R = 659N + 99 N = 758N

c) W= 659 N , Ntop= 560 N , v'=2.v

N'top= ?

∑F= W - N'top = m.v'²/R

N'top= W - 4.m.v²/R

N'top = 659 N - 4. 99 N = 263 N

d)   N'bottom = ?

∑Fbottom= N'bottom- W = m.v'²/R

N'bottom = W + 4.m.v²/R = 659 N + 4. 99 N = 1055 N

Two manned satellites approaching one another at a relative speed of 0.550 m/s intend to dock. The first has a mass of 2.50 ✕ 10
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer: Their final relative velocity is -0.412 m/s.

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation,

      m_{1}v_{1} + m_{2}v_{2} = (m_{1} + m_{2})v

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

      m_{1}v_{1} + m_{2}v_{2} = (m_{1} + m_{2})v

     2.50 \times 10^{3} kg \times 0 m/s + 7.50 \times 10^{3} kg \times -0.550 m/s = (2.50 \times 10^{3} kg + 7.50 \times 10^{3} kg)v

           -4.12 \times 10^{3} kg m/s = (10^{4} kg) v

                   v = \frac{-4.12 \times 10^{3} kg m/s}{10^{4} kg}

                      = -0.412 m/s

Thus, we can conclude that their final relative velocity is -0.412 m/s.

The graph below is called a heating curve. It shows how water changes from one state of matter to another based on temperature a
Neporo4naja [7]

Explanation :

The heating curve shows how water changes from one state of matter to another based on temperature and the addition or removal of heat over time.

Initially, ice is heated until its temperature reaches 0^0\ C and changes to liquid state.

From the attached graph it is clear that until 100^0\ C the temperature will rise steadily. Here, the liquid begins to vaporize. Vaporization is the state of matter at which liquid state changes to the gaseous state.

So, E is the point which shows the gaseous state.
