An object which moves in the positive direction has a positive velocity. If the object is slowing down then its acceleration vector is directed in the opposite direction as its motion in this case a negative acceleration.

Answer:

An object which moves in the positive direction has a positive velocity. If the object is slowing down then its acceleration vector is directed in the opposite direction as its motion (in this case, a negative acceleration).

PLEASE HELP ME Color corresponds to the ______________ of light waves. wave speed cycles wavelength
lorasvet [3.4K]
Wavelength. Each wavelength is a certain color. For instance, shorter wavelengths (like 470nm) will be blue or violet, while longer wavelengths (like 650nm) will be red. Hope this helps! :)

grin007 [14]

Answer:

a = 4.9(1 - sinθ - 0.4cosθ)

Explanation:

Really not possible without a complete setup.

I will ASSUME that this an Atwood machine with two masses (m) connected by an ideal rope passing over an ideal pulley. One mass hangs freely and the other is on a slope of angle θ to the horizontal with coefficient of friction μ. Gravity is g

                                     F = ma

mg - mgsinθ - μmgcosθ = (m + m)a

      mg(1 - sinθ - μcosθ) = 2ma

      ½g(1 - sinθ - μcosθ) = a

maximum acceleration is about 2.94 m/s² when θ = 0

acceleration will be zero when θ is greater than about 46.4°

The magnetic strips on credit cards can become demagnetized. What type of magnet are they?
Damm [24]
I think you're fishing for "temporary magnet" or something like that,
but I don't agree with it. 

Credit card strips, refrigerator magnets, recording tape, bar magnets,
and big heavy horseshoe magnets are permanent magnets ... you don't
have to keep an electric current circulating around them to make them
magnetic. 

But that doesn't mean that they stay magnetic no matter WHAT you do
to them.  They can be DEmagnetized by being heated, dropped on the
floor, hit with a hammer, or in the presence of another, stronger magnet.

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
