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

Using a rope that will snap if the tension in it exceeds 387 N, you need to lower a bundle of old roofing material weighing 449
Anni [7]

Answer:

(a) a\approx1.4 m.s^{-2}

(b) v\approx 4.133 m.s^{-1}

Explanation:

Given:

  • Limiting tension of snapping of the rope, T= 387 N
  • Weight of the object to be lifted, w=449 N
  • ∴mass, \Rightarrow m= 45.8163 kg
  • height of letting down the weight, h = 6.1 m

(a)

Now,

The force to be compensated for  being on the verge of snapping:

(T-w) = 62 N

Therefore, we need to produce and acceleration equivalent to the above force.

∵F=m.a

62=45.8163\times a

a= \frac{62}{45.8163}

a\approx 1.4 m.s^{-2}

(b)

From the equation of motion ,we have:

v^{2} =u^{2} +2a.s....................(2)

where:

u= initial velocity= 0 (here, starting from rest)

v= final velocity = ?

a= 1.4 m.s^{-2}

s= displacement =h =6.1 m

Now, putting the values in eq. (2)

v^2= 0^2 + 2\times 1.4\times 6.1

v\approx 4.133 m.s^{-1}        is the velocity with which the body will hit the ground in the given conditions.

How to calculate the velocity? the answer is 5.4 m/s I need the explication
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer: sq. root of .735

Explanation:

multiply two on both sides.

(2) *2,94 = (0,200 * v^2) (2)

588 = 0400 * 2v^2

divide by 400 on both sides

1.47 = 2v^2

divide by 2 on both sides

.735 = v^2

take square root of both sides

\sqrt{.735)  or .85732141

  • sonography
  • X-ray radiography
  • CT scan
<h3>How can mechanical waves help in the treatment of cancer?</h3>


Ultrasound is used to improve absorption of a radioactive pellet by a tumor. The radioisotope in a radiopharmaceutical releases sound waves into surrounding cells. Beams of X-rays are targeted at a cancerous tumor from outside the body.

<h3>How can mechanical waves help the treatment of cancer?</h3>

HIFU is a cancer treatment that uses high-frequency sound waves. You have HIFU from a machine. The machine gives off the sound waves which deliver a strong beam to a specific part of a cancer. This heats and destroys the cancer cells.

HIFU can treat a single tumour or part of a large tumour. But it is not suitable for people with cancer that has spread to more than one place in their body.
