Answer:

1) Lightning, you see the lightning first and then hear the thunder.

2)When a person far away from you hits a ball with a bat, you can see them striking the ball first and then you will hear the sound of ball striking against the bat.

This time particle A starts from rest and accelerates to the right at 65.5 cm/s

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

t = 4 s

Explanation:

As we know that the particle A starts from Rest with constant acceleration

So the distance moved by the particle in given time "t"

$d = v_i t + \frac{1}{2}at^2$

$d = 0 + \frac{1}{2}(65.5)t^2$

$d_1 = 32.75 t^2 cm$

Now we know that B moves with constant speed so in the same time B will move to another distance

$d_2 = 44 \times t$

now we know that B is already 349 cm down the track

so if A and B will meet after time "t"

then in that case

$d_1 = 349 + d_2$

$32.75 t^2 = 349 + 44 t$

on solving above kinematics equation we have

$t = 4 s$

An electron in a mercury atom drops

aksik [14]

Since the electron dropped from an energy level i to the ground state by emitting a single photon, this photon has an energy of 1.41 × 10⁻¹⁸ Joules.

<h3>How to calculate the photon energy?</h3>

In order to determine the photon energy of an electron, you should apply Planck-Einstein's equation.

Mathematically, the Planck-Einstein equation can be calculated by using this formula:

E = hf

<u>Where:</u>

h is Planck constant.

f is photon frequency.

In this scenario, this photon has an energy of 1.41 × 10⁻¹⁸ Joules because the electron dropped from an energy level i to the ground state by emitting a single photon.

An object weighing 49 N is pushed across a floor by a force of 12 N. What is the acceleration of the object?

NISA [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight of object = 49N

Force applied = 12N

Unknown:

Acceleration of object = ?

Solution:

The acceleration of the object is found by dividing the force by the weight;

Acceleration = $\frac{12}{49}$ = 0.25m/s²
