The wavelength of green light is about the size of an atom. (T/F)

Physics
1 answer:
Snowcat [4.5K]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

The wavelength of green light is about 500 nanometers, or two thousandths of a millimeter. The typical wavelength of a microwave oven is about 12 centimeters, which is larger than a baseball.

A 5-kg ball collides inelastically head-on with a 10-kg ball, which is initially stationary. Which of the following statements i
Veseljchak [2.6K]

a. The magnitude of the change of the momentum of the 5-kg ball is equal to the magnitude of the change of momentum of the 10-kg ball.

c. The magnitude of the change of velocity the 5-kg ball experiences is greater than that of the 10-kg ball.

Explanation:

For an inelastic collision:

  • The total momentum of the system is conserved
  • The total kinetic energy of the system is not conserved

Using these facts, let's now analyze each statement given.

a. The magnitude of the change of the momentum of the 5-kg ball is equal to the magnitude of the change of momentum of the 10-kg ball.  --> TRUE. Since the total momentum is conserved, we can write:

p_1 = p_1'+p_2'

where

p_1 is the initial momentum of the 5-kg ball

p_1' is the final momentum of the 5-kg ball

p_2' is the final momentum of the 10-kg ball

The equation can be rewritten as

p_1-p_1'=p_2'

which is equivalent to

-\Delta p_1 = \Delta p_2

which means that the magnitude of the change of momentum of the two balls is the same.

b. Both balls lose all their momentum since the collision is inelastic.  --> FALSE, the 10-kg ball gains momentum, so it does not lose it.

c. The magnitude of the change of velocity the 5-kg ball experiences is greater than that of the 10-kg ball.  --> TRUE. We already said that the magnitude of the change in momentum of the two balls is the same. However, it can be written as

\Delta p = m\Delta v

where m is the mass of the ball and \Delta v its change in velocity. Therefore, the 5-kg ball (which has smaller mass) will have a larger \Delta v, so a larger change in velocity.

d. The magnitude of the change of velocity the 5-kg ball experiences is equal to that of the 10-kg ball.  --> FALSE, as we discussed in c).

e. The magnitude of the change of velocity the 5-kg ball experiences is less than that of the 10-kg ball. --> FALSE, as we discussed in c).
