Given: Plank's constant h = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s   

           Speed of light c = 2.998 x 10⁸ m/s

            Wavelength  λ = 500 nm  convert to meter = 5 x 10⁻⁷ m

Required: Energy E =?

Formula: E = hc/λ

               E = (6.626 X 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(2.998 X 10⁸ m/s)/5 x 10⁻⁷ m

               E = 3.97 X 10⁻¹⁹ J  or in termS of electron volt

               E = 2.48 eV

Three long, straight wires are carrying currents that have the same magnitude. In C the current is opposite to that in A and B.
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

(b) B

Explanation:

The direction of force on a current carrying wire in a magnetic field can be found using the right hand rule, which states that-"stretch the thumb in the direction of the current, and point the fingers in the direction of magnetic field. The direction of palm will then give the direction of force on the wire

On wire B the forces due to A and C act in the same direction and so strengthen each other. they get added up because the forces act in the same direction.

on wires A and C the forces (due to B and C and A and B

respectively) act in opposite directions and therefore tend to cancel out.

Bicycle A with mass 40 Kg is traveling with a velocity of 4 m/s and Bicycle B with mass 20 Kg is traveling with a velocity of 2m
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

bicycle A has a greater K.E.

Explanation:

K.E = 1/2mv²

bicycle A = 1/2 × 40 × 4² = 320J

bicycle B = 1/2 × 20 × 2² = 100J

bicycle A has a greater K.E. because it has bigger mass and moves with faster velocity
