With what speed must you approach a source of sound to observe a 25% change in frequency?

1 answer:

5 0

Sound source is at rest, you are moving with velocity v, f = frequency, c = speed of sound:

f = f0(1 + v/c)

115 = 100(1 + v/343)
115 = 100 + 100v/343
15 = 100v/343
v = 15*343/100
<span> v = 51,45 m/s </span>

What is the energy of a photon that has the same wavelength as an electron having a kinetic energy of 15 ev?

serg [7]

Answer: $6.268(10)^{-16}J$

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an electron $K_{e}$ is given by the following equation:

$K_{e}=\frac{(p_{e})^{2} }{2m_{e}}$ (1)

Where:

$K_{e}=15eV=2.403^{-18}J=2.403^{-18}\frac{kgm^{2}}{s^{2}}$

$p_{e}$ is the momentum of the electron

$m_{e}=9.11(10)^{-31}kg$ is the mass of the electron

From (1) we can find $p_{e}$ :

$p_{e}=\sqrt{2K_{e}m_{e}}$ (2)

$p_{e}=\sqrt{2(2.403^{-18}J)(9.11(10)^{-31}kg)}$

$p_{e}=2.091(10)^{-24}\frac{kgm}{s}$ (3)

Now, in order to find the wavelength of the electron $\lambda_{e}$ with this given kinetic energy (hence momentum), we will use the De Broglie wavelength equation:

$\lambda_{e}=\frac{h}{p_{e}}$ (4)

Where:

$h=6.626(10)^{-34}J.s=6.626(10)^{-34}\frac{m^{2}kg}{s}$ is the Planck constant

So, we will use the value of $p_{e}$ found in (3) for equation (4):

$\lambda_{e}=\frac{6.626(10)^{-34}J.s}{2.091(10)^{-24}\frac{kgm}{s}}$

$\lambda_{e}=3.168(10)^{-10}m$ (5)

We are told the wavelength of the photon $\lambda_{p}$ is the same as the wavelength of the electron:

$\lambda_{e}=\lambda_{p}=3.168(10)^{-10}m$ (6)

Therefore we will use this wavelength to find the energy of the photon $E_{p}$ using the following equation:

$E_{p}=\frac{hc}{lambda_{p}}$ (7)

Where $c=3(10)^{8}m/s$ is the spped of light in vacuum

$E_{p}=\frac{(6.626(10)^{-34}J.s)(3(10)^{8}m/s)}{3.168(10)^{-10}m}$

Finally:

$E_{p}=6.268(10)^{-16}J$

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Rubber is an insulator.

Explanation:

Rubber is an insulator. Electricity will always travel "the path of least resistance." Rubber has a very high resistance, so electricity will go somewhere else to find ground.
