Answer:

0.667 m/s^2

Explanation: Given that you slow down from 2m/s to a stop 3s.

Using first law of motion.

V = U - at

Where

Final velocity V = 0

Initial velocity U = 2 m/s

Time taken t = 3 seconds

Since the body slow down, the final velocity V will be equal to zero. And the acceleration will be negative.

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

0 = 2 - a × 3

3a = 2

a = 2 /3

a = 0.667 m/s^2

Therefore, your acceleration during this time interval will be 0.667 m/s^2

Verdich [7]

Answer:

2.41\cdot 10^{13}Hz, 1.24\cdot 10^{-5}m

Explanation:

The energy of the photon must be equal to 0.1 eV, so let's convert this value into Joules first:

E=0.1 eV \cdot 1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J=1.6\cdot 10^{-20}J

The energy of the photon is related to its frequency by

E=hf

where h is the Planck constant and f is the frequency. Substituting,

f=\frac{E}{h}=\frac{1.6\cdot 10^{-20}J}{6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js}=2.41\cdot 10^{13}Hz

And now we can find the wavelength of the photon, which is given by

\lambda=\frac{c}{f}

where c is the speed of light. Substituting,

\lambda=\frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}{2.41\cdot 10^{13} Hz}=1.24\cdot 10^{-5}m

Balanced forces keep this boy in place on his chair. What
I am Lyosha [343]

While the boy is sitting on the chair it creates a force downward on the chair and therefore the chair takes it and gives off the equal amount of force. So while he is putting force downward the chair is putting the same force upward.
