How are weather satellites and weather stations similar?

1 answer:

6 0

Weather satellites and weather stations are similar, because they both have the same purpose. They are used to help predict future weather as well as as current conditions. The satellites are viewing the weather from a distance at a large scope, but stations are using data they collect on earth to help with the same task.

A photon of red light (wavelength = 710 nm) and a ping-pong ball (mass = 2. 40 × 10^-3 kg) have the same momentum. At what speed

Paha777 [63]

The speed of the ball moving is

$v = 3.94 \times 10 {}^{ - 25}m/s$

what is momentum?

The momentum p of a classical object of mass m and velocity v is given by pclassical =mv.

For photons with wavelength λ,this equation does not hold.Instead, the momentum of the Photon is given by p Photon = h/λ

where,h is the planck's constant.

The momentum of the red Photon is

given:

$h = 6.626 \times 10 {}^{ - 34}kgm {}^{2}/s(plancks \: constant)$

$λ = 700 \times 10 {}^{ - 9} m(photons \: wavelength)$

$p \: photons = \frac{6.626 \times 10 {}^{ - 34}kgm {} ^{2}/s }{700 \times 10 {}^{ - 9}m }$

$= 9.47 \times 10 {}^{ - 28}kgm /s$

since,the Photon and the ping-pong ball have the same momentum,we have

$pball = pphotons = \frac{6.626 \times 10 {}^{ - 34}kgm/s }{700 \times 10 {}^{ - 9} }$

$pball = mv,m = 2.40 \times 10 {}^{ - 3}kg$

$v = 3.94 \times 10 {}^{ - 25} m/s$

Therefore, if the red photon and the ping-pong ball have the same momentum, the ping-pong ball must have a speed of approximately

$v = 3.94 \times 10 {}^{ - 25}m/s$

a hippopotamus produces a pressure of 250000 pa when it is standing on all four feet if the weight of the hippo is 40000 N what

mamaluj [8]

0.04m²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Pressure = 250000Pa

Weight = 40000N

Unknown:

Area of each foot = ?

Solution:

Pressure is the force exerted per unit area of a body

Pressure = $\frac{force}{area}$

To find the area;

Area = $\frac{force }{pressure}$

Area = $\frac{40000}{250000}$ = 0.16m²

The force exerted by all the four feet is 0.16m²

the area of each feet = $\frac{0.16}{4}$ = 0.04m²

sineoko [7]

Answer:

Mass is constant everywhere,

But weight is different,

If earth g = 10 then moon's is 1.6666667

Now billie's weight in moon is 41.6667

A visible light has a wavelength of 727.3 nm. Determine its frequency, energy per photon, and color.

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

$f=4.12\times 10^{14}\ Hz$ and $E=2.73\times 10^{-19}\ J$

Explanation:

The wavelength of a visible light is 727.3 nm.

$727.3\ nm=727.3 \times 10^{-9}\ m$

The formula is as follows :

$c=f\lambda$

f is the frequency of the visible light

$f=\dfrac{c}{\lambda}\\\\f=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{727.3 \times 10^{-9}}\\\\f=4.12\times 10^{14}\ Hz$

Energy of a photon is given by :

E = hf, h is Planck's constant

$E=6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 4.12\times 10^{14}\\\\E=2.73\times 10^{-19}\ J$

Red color has a frequency of $4.12\times 10^{14}\ Hz$ and energy per photon is $2.73\times 10^{-19}\ J$ .
