Why can an object still be seen when it is at absolute zero?

<span>As the temperature goes down, the chaotic motion (velocity) of atoms start decreasing. If the temperature hits the absolute zero (which, in reality, is impossible to achieve), the atoms of the body would freeze, making the body still and stiff. One thing to note here is that the atoms do not get destroyed when the temperature reaches the absolute zero. That is the reason why the object can still be seen when it is at absolute zero.</span>

If you dribble a basketball with a frequency of 1.77 Hz, how long does it take for you to complete 12 dribbles?

Licemer1 [7]

<h2>It takes 6.78 seconds to complete 12 dribbles.</h2>

Explanation:

Frequency of dribble = 1.77 Hz

That is

Number of dribbles in 1 second = 1.77

$\texttt{Time taken for 1 dribble = }\frac{1}{1.77}=0.565s$

Now we need to find how long does it take for you to complete 12 dribbles.

Time taken for 12 dribbles = 12 x Time taken for 1 dribble

Time taken for 12 dribbles = 12 x 0.565

Time taken for 12 dribbles = 6.78 seconds

It takes 6.78 seconds to complete 12 dribbles.

Calculate the de broglie wavelength (in picometers) of a hydrogen atom traveling at 440 m/s.

Aleonysh [2.5K]

De broglie wavelength, $\lambda = \frac{h}{mv}$ , where h is the Planck's constant, m is the mass and v is the velocity.

$h = 6.63*10^{-34}$

Mass of hydrogen atom, $m = 1.67*10^{-27}kg$

v = 440 m/s

Substituting

Wavelength $\lambda = \frac{h}{mv} = \frac{6.63*10^{-34}}{1.67*10^{-27}*440} = 0.902 *10^{-9}m = 902 *10^{-12}m$

$1 pm = 10^{-12}m\\ \\ So , \lambda =902 pm$

So the de broglie wavelength (in picometers) of a hydrogen atom traveling at 440 m/s is 902 pm

6. The momentum of a 30.0 g bird with a speed of 12 m.s-1 is 0.36 kg.m.s-1. What will be its momentum 12s later if a constant .0

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

Explanation:

initial momentum = .36 kg.m.s⁻¹

negative impulse = force x time = .02 x 12 = .24 kg.m.s⁻¹

final momentum - initial momentum = impulse

final momentum = initial momentum + impulse

= .36 - .24

= .12 kg.m.s⁻¹
