Hey there,

Your question states: <span>How long does it take for light from a star that is 8 light-years away to reach earth?

It take just about (</span>8 earth years) <span> for light from a star that is 8 light-years away to reach earth. That is how </span>FAST it would take.

Hope this helps.

g We saw in class that in a pendulum the string does no work. We also saw that the normal force does no work on an object slidin
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

From question (a) and (b) the pendulum motion is perpendicular to the force so the normal force will do no work and the tension in the string of the pendulum will not work

       i.e Normal \ Force(N)  = mg cos \theta

And \theta = 90 so

           N = 0

c

An example will be a where a stone is attached to the end of a string and is made to move in a circular motion while keeping the other end of the string in a fixed position        

d

A dog walking along a surface which has friction, here the frictional force would acting in the direction of the motion and this would do positive work

Who water rocket starts from rest and roses straight up with an acceleration of 5 m/s until it runs out of water 2.5 seconds lat
Kitty [74]

Answer:

23. 4375 m

Explanation:

There are two parts of the rocket's motion

1 ) accelerating  (assume it goes upto  h1 height )

using motion equations upwards

s = ut+\frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2} \\h_1=0+\frac{1}{2}*5*2.5^{2} \\=15.625 m

Lets find the velocity after 2.5 seconds (V1)

V = U +at

V1 = 0 +5*2.5 = 12.5 m/s  

2) motion under gravity (assume it goes upto  h2 height )

now there no acceleration from the rocket. it is now subjected to the gravity

using motion equations upwards (assuming g= 10m/s² downwards)

V²= U² +2as

0 = 12.5²+2*(-10)*h2

h2 = 7.8125 m

maximum height = h1 + h2

                            = 15.625 + 7.8125

                            = 23. 4375 m

The smallest separation resolvable by a microscope is of the order of magnitude of the wavelength used. What energy electrons wo
hjlf

Answer: a) for 150 Angstroms 6.63 *10^-3 eV; b) for 5 Angstroms 6.02 eV

Explanation: To solve this problem we have to use the relationship given by De Broglie as:

λ =p/h where p is the momentum and h the Planck constant

if we consider the energy given by acceleration tube for the electrons given by: E: e ΔV so is equal to kinetic energy of electrons p^2/2m

Finally we have:

eΔV=p^2/2m= h^2/(2*m*λ^2)

replacing we obtained the above values.
