Answer: 9.98 *10^-19 J

Explanation: In order to explain this probelm we have to consider the balance enegy for photoelectric effect.

h*f-W=Ek where h is the Planck constant and W the work function and Ek the kinetic energy. f is the frequency of light.

W=h*f-Ek=6.62*10^-34*2.4*10^15-5.9*10^-19=9.98*10^-19J

A 300 kg car initially travels with a velocity of 20 m/s to the right. A net force F acts on the car for 5 s, which causes the v
hram777 [196]

Answer:

<em>600N.</em>

Explanation:

From the question, we are to calculate the net force acting on the car.

According to Newton's second law of motion:

F = ma

m is the mass of the car

a is the acceleration = change in velocity/Time

a = v-u/t

F = m(v-u)/t

v is the final velocity = 30m/s

u is the initial velocity = 20m/s

t is the time = 5secs

m = 300kg

Get the net force:

Recall that: F = m(v-u)/t

F  = 300(30-20)/5

F = 60(30-20)

F = 60(10)

<em>F = 600N</em>

<em>Hence the net force acting on the car is 600N.</em>

Assuming the speed of sound is 340 m/s, what is the most likely speed of the jet shown below?
inysia [295]

Well we know it has to be greater than 300,000 km/s since we can't see it.

We can't calculate it any closer than that using the given information.

Objects 1 and 2 attract each other with a electrostatic force of 18.0 units. If the charge of Object 2 is tripled, then the new
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

The force will be 54.0 units

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electrostatic force between two charged objects is given by Coulomb's Law:

F=\frac{kq_1 q_2}{r^2}

where

k is Coulomb's constant

q1, q2 are the magnitude of the two charges

r is the separation between the two charges

From the equation, we see that the magnitude of the force is directly proportional to the charge of object 2:

F\propto q_2

In this problem, the initial force between the two objects is

F = 18.0 N

And so, when the charge on object 2 is tripled,

q_2'=3q_2

The new electrostatic force will be

F'\propto q_2' = (3q_2) = 3F

So, the force will also triple: since the original force was 18.0 units, the new force will be

F'=3F=3(18.0)=54.0
