Answer:

E=88200\ J

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of car, m=1500\ kg
  • distance of skidding after the application of brakes, d=15\ m
  • coefficient of kinetic friction, \mu_k=0.4

<u>So, the energy dissipated during the skidding of car:</u>

<em>Frictional force:</em>

f=\mu_k.N

where N = normal reaction by ground on the car

f=0.4\ties 1500\times 9.8

f=5880\ N

<em>Now from the work-energy equivalence:</em>

E=f.d

E=5880\times 15

E=88200\ J is the dissipated energy.

madam [21]

Answer:

the only effect it has is to create more induced charge at the closest points, but the net face remains zero, so it has no effect on the flow.

Explanation:

We can answer this exercise using Gauss's law

      Ф = ∫ e . dA = q_{int} / ε₀

field flow is directly proportionate to the charge found inside it, therefore if we place a Gaussian surface outside the plastic spherical shell.  the flow must be zero since the charge of the sphere is equal  induced in the shell, for which the net charge is zero. we see with this analysis that this shell meets the requirement to block the elective field

From the same Gaussian law it follows that if the sphere is not in the center, the only effect it has is to create more induced charge at the closest points, but the net face remains zero, so it has no effect on the flow , so no matter where the sphere is, the total induced charge is always equal to the charge on the sphere.

A hydrogen atom in the n=7 state decays to the n=4 state. what is the wavelength of the photon that the hydrogen atom emits? use
frez [133]

A hydrogen atom in the n=7 state decays to the n=4 state. The wavelength of the photon that the hydrogen atom emits is 4592.59nm.

The Energy of photon is the energy possessed by a photon when it moves from a high energy level to a low energy level. It emits a photon of a certain wavelength. The following relation can be used to find out the relation between the energy levels and the energy possessed:

E = 13.6 × Z² (1/n₂² - 1/n₁²) eV

where, n₁ is the initial energy level i.e. n₁ =7

            n₂ is the higher energy level i.e. n₂ = 4

            E is the energy possessed

            Z is the atomic number, Z = 1 for H-atom

Subsituting in above equation,

E = 13.6 (1/16 - 1/49) eV

E = 0.27 eV

We know that,

E = hc / λ  

where, h is Planck constant

           c is speed of light

            λ is wavelength

On subsituting,

0.27 eV = 1240/ λ

⇒ λ = 4592.59 nm

Hence, the wavelength of photon emitted by Hydrogen atom is 4592.59nm.
