Describe the acceleration of your bicycle as you ride it from your home to the store

1 answer:

8 0

While you're going to the store, your acceleration changes. Some times it increases your overall speed sometimes it reduces it. Constant acceleration does not occur because it would mean that you would constantly accelerate and eventually go past the store. Even reduction of speed is a type of acceleration in physics. When you reach it, we can then calculate how much your velocity was on average and analyze how changing acceleration would've affected it.

An electron is confined in a harmonic oscillator potential well. What is the longest wavelength of light that the electron can a

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The longest wavelength of light is 209 nm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Spring constant = 74 N/m

Mass of electron $m= 9.11\times10^{-31}\ kg$

Speed of light $c= 3\times10^{8}\ m/s$

We need to calculate the frequency

Using formula of frequency

$f =\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}$

Where, k= spring constant

m = mass of the particle

Put the value into the formula

$f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{74}{9.11\times10^{-31}}}$

$f=1.434\times10^{15}\ Hz$

We need to calculate the longest wavelength that the electron can absorb

$\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}$

Where, c = speed of light

f = frequency

Put the value into the formula

$\lambda =\dfrac{3\times10^{8}}{1.434\times10^{15}}$

$\lambda=2.092\times10^{-7}\ m$

$\lambda=209\ nm$

Hence, The longest wavelength of light is 209 nm.

Please answer this question sqdancefan

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

(D) 4

Explanation:

The percentage error in each of the contributors to the calculation is 1%. The maximum error in the calculation is approximately the sum of the errors of each contributor, multiplied by the number of times it is a factor in the calculation.

density = mass/volume

density = mass/(π(radius^2)(length))

So, mass and length are each a factor once, and radius is a factor twice. Then the total percentage error is approximately 1% +1% +2×1% = 4%.

_____

If you look at the maximum and minimum density, you find they are ...

{0.0611718, 0.0662668} g/(mm²·cm)

The ratio of the maximum value to the mean of these values is about 1.03998. So, the maximum is 3.998% higher than the "nominal" density.

The error is about 4%.

_____

Additional comment

If you work through the details of the math, you will see that the above-described sum of error percentages is just an approximation. If you need a more exact error estimate, it is best to work with the ranges of the numbers involved, and/or their distributions.

Using numbers with uniformly distributed errors will give different results than with normally distributed errors. When such distributions are involved, you need to carefully define what you mean by a maximum error. (By definition, normal distributions extend to infinity in both directions.) While the central limit theorem tends to apply, the actual shape of the error distribution may not be precisely normal.
