<h2>Right answer: acceleration due to gravity is always the same </h2><h2 />

According to the experiments done and currently verified, in vacuum (this means there is not air or any fluid), all objects in free fall experience the same acceleration, which is <u>the acceleration of gravity</u>.

Now, in this case we are on Earth, so the gravity value is $9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

Note the objects experience the acceleration of gravity regardless of their mass.

Nevertheless, on Earth we have air, hence <u>air resistance</u>, so the afirmation <em>"Free fall is a situation in which the only force acting upon an object is gravity" </em>is not completely true on Earth, unless the following condition is fulfiled:

If the air resistance is <u>too small</u> that we can approximate it to <u>zero</u> in the calculations, then in free fall the objects will accelerate downwards at $9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ and hit the ground at approximately the same time.

Godric and Savos are a few meters apart, at one end of the football field. Peter is at the other end of the field. Godric and Sa

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

From Savos point of view, Gadros appear not to be moving

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The distance between Godric and Savos = A few meters

The location of Godric and Savos = One end of the field

The location pf Peter = The other end pf the field

The speed with which Godric and Savos are moving towards Peter = 4 m/s

Let the positive x-direction be the direction in which Godric and Savos are moving

Therefore;

The speed and direction with which Godric is moving = The speed and direction with which Savos is moving = 4·i m/s

From Savos point of view, the relative speed with which Godric is moving = (The speed and direction in which Godric is moving) - (The speed and direction in which Savos is moving) = 4·i m/s - 4·i m/s = 0 m/s

Therefore, from Savos point of view, the relative speed with which Godric is moving = 0 m/s or Gadros appears stationary or not to moving.

Calculate the energy of a photon having a wavelength in thefollowing ranges.(a) microwave, with λ = 50.00 cmeV(b) visible, with

IgorLugansk [536]

(a) $2.5\cdot 10^{-6}eV$

The energy of a photon is given by:

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}$

where

$h=6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js$ is the Planck constant

$c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s$ is the speed of light

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

For the microwave photon,

$\lambda=50.00 cm = 0.50 m$

So the energy is

$E=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{0.50 m}=4.0\cdot 10^{-25} J$

And converting into electronvolts,

$E=\frac{4.0\cdot 10^{-25}J}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J/eV}=2.5\cdot 10^{-6}eV$

(b) $2.5 eV$

For the energy of the photon, we can use the same formula:

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}$

For the visible light photon,

$\lambda=500 nm = 5 \cdot 10^{-7}m$

So the energy is

$E=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{5\cdot 10^{-7} m}=4.0\cdot 10^{-19} J$

And converting into electronvolts,

$E=\frac{4.0\cdot 10^{-19}J}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J/eV}=2.5 eV$

(c) $2500 eV$

For the energy of the photon, we can use the same formula:

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}$

For the x-ray photon,

$\lambda=0.5 nm = 5 \cdot 10^{-10}m$

So the energy is

$E=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{5\cdot 10^{-10} m}=4.0\cdot 10^{-16} J$

And converting into electronvolts,

$E=\frac{4.0\cdot 10^{-16}J}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J/eV}=2500 eV$

A weight is hung from the ceiling of an elevator by a massless string. Under which circumstances will the tension in the cord be

Oduvanchick [21]

When the elevator is going up (assuming the elevator is acceleration)

When the elevator is accelerating downwards, the total gravitational force would be larger.

If the elevator is accelerating upwards, then the gravitation force would be smaller, thus the tension in the string would be smaller.
