An electron in a TV picture tube is accelerated through a potential difference of 10 kV before it hits the screen. What is the k

inetic energy of the electron in electron volts?(1 eV = 1.6 ? 10 -19 J)

Answer:

10,000 eV

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy, the kinetic energy gained by the electron is equal to its change in electric potential energy:

K=\Delta U=q \Delta V

where:

K is the kinetic energy of the electron

q=1 e is the magnitude of the charge of the electron

\Delta V is the potential difference through which the electron has been accelerated

For this electron in the TV, we have

\Delta V=10 kV=10000 V

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the electron in electronvolts is

K=(1 e)(10000 V)=10000 eV

Two pebbles, Pebble A and Pebble B, are thrown horizontally with the same force. Pebble A's mass is 3 times the
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Pebble A has 1/3 the acceleration as pebble B.

Explanation:

F = m×a

mass of a = 3 × mass of b (m_a = 3 × m_b)

Same starting force, F

m_a = mass of a

m_b = mass of b

a_a = acceleration of a

a_b = acceleration of b

F = m_a × a_a = m_b × a_b

3 × m_b × a_a = m_b × a_b

3 × a_a = a_b

OR

a_a = a_b / 3

The energy of a photon of light is __________ proportional to its frequency and __________ proportional to its wavelength.
icang [17]

Answer:

D) directly, inversely

Explanation:

The energy of a photon of light is directly proportional to its frequency and inversely proportional to its wavelength.

Frequency is the number of waves that passes through a point per unit of time.

Wavelength is the is the distance between successive crests or troughs on a wave.

 Mathematically, frequency is related to wavelength and velocity using;

             Energy   =  h x f

                      where h is the Planck's constant

                                  f is the frequency

         

                   Since c  = f ∧

where f is the frequency of the wave

           ∧ is the wavelength of the wave

           c is the speed of light

So;

                 f  = c/∧

  Therefore;

                E  = \frac{h c}{wavelength}

From the equation, we see an inverse relationship between E and wavelength and a direct one with frequency.

Suppose the ski patrol lowers a rescue sled carrying an injured skier, with a combined mass of 97.5 kg, down a 60.0-degree slope
Kitty [74]

a. 1337.3 J work, in joules, is done by friction as the sled moved 28 m along the hill.

b.21,835 J work, in joules, is done by the rope on the sled this distance.

c. 23,170 J   the work, in joules done by the gravitational force on the sled d. The net work done on the sled, in joules is 43,670 J.

       

<h3>What is friction work?</h3>

The work done by friction is the force of friction times the distance traveled times the cosine of the angle between the friction force and displacement

a. How much work is done by friction as the sled moves 28m along the hill?

ans. We use the formula:

friction work = -µ.mg.dcosθ

  = -0.100 * 97.5 kg * 9.8 m/s² * 28 m * cos 60

= -1337.3 J

-1337.3 J work, in joules, is done by friction as the sled moved 28 m along the hill.

b. How much work is done by the rope on the sled in this distance?

We use the formula:

Rope work = -m.g.d(sinθ - µcosθ)

rope work = - 97.5 kg * 9.8 m/s² * 28 m (sin 60 – 0.100 * cos 60)

                     = 26,754 (0.816)

                     = 21,835 J

21,835 J work, in joules, is done by the rope on the sled this distance.

c.  What is the work done by the gravitational force on the sled?

By using  the formula:

Gravity work = mgdsinθ

                    = 97.5 kg * 9.8 m/s² * 28 m * sin 60

                    = 23,170 J

23,170 J   the work, in joules done by the gravitational force on the sled .

       

D. What is the total work done?

By adding all the values

work done =  -1337.3 + 21,835 + 23,170

                 = 43,670 J

The net work done on the sled, in joules is 43,670 J.

Why do astronauts float aboard the international space station?
lianna [129]
They’re falling toward earth & moving forward at about the same velocity. because the downward and forward forces are nearly equal, the astronauts are not pulled in any specific direction, so they float . <span>

A person's body is producing energy internally due to metabolic processes. If the body loses more energy than metabolic processe
Allushta [10]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Stefan-Boltzman law that is responsible for calculating radioactive energy.

Mathematically this expression can be given as

P = \sigma Ae\Delta T^4

Where

A = Surface area of the Object

\sigma = Stefan-Boltzmann constant

e = Emissivity

T = Temperature (Kelvin)

Our values are given as

A = 1.36m^2

\Delta T^4 = T_2^4 -T_1^4 = 307^4-T_1^4

\sigma = 5.67*10^{-8} J/(s m^2 K^4)

P = 122J/s

e = 0.7

Replacing at our equation and solving to find the temperature 1 we have,

P = \sigma Ae\Delta T^4

P = \sigma Ae (T_2^4 -T_1^4)

122 = (5.67*10^{-8})(1.36)(0.7)(307^4-T_1^4)

T_1 = 285.272K = 12.122\°C

Therefore the the temperature of the coldest room in which this person could stand and not experience a drop in body temperature is 12°C
