A man with a mass of 70 kg walks up a flight of stairs that is 5 m tall. Another man with a mass of 80 kg walks up the same flig

ht of stairs. Which one has more power?
a) the 70 kg man because he has less mass
b) the 80 kg man because he has more mass
c) the power generated by each is the same
d) power cannot be determined without the time taken to claim the stairs

It's 'D'. You need to know the time in order to calculate power.

The maximum Compton shift in wavelength occurs when a photon isscattered through 180^\circ .

vlabodo [156]

Answer: $90\°$

Explanation:

The Compton Shift $\Delta \lambda$ in wavelength when the photons are scattered is given by the following equation:

$\Delta \lambda=\lambda_{c}(1-cos\theta)$ (1)

Where:

$\lambda_{c}=2.43(10)^{-12} m$ is a constant whose value is given by $\frac{h}{m_{e}c}$ , being $h$ the Planck constant, $m_{e}$ the mass of the electron and $c$ the speed of light in vacuum.

$\theta)$ the angle between incident phhoton and the scatered photon.

We are told the maximum Compton shift in wavelength occurs when a photon isscattered through $180\°$ :

$\Delta \lambda_{max}=\lambda_{c}(1-cos(180\°))$ (2)

$\Delta \lambda_{max}=\lambda_{c}(1-(-1))$

$\Delta \lambda_{max}=2\lambda_{c}$ (3)

Now, let's find the angle that will produce a fourth of this maximum value found in (3):

$\frac{1}{4}\Delta \lambda_{max}=\frac{1}{4}2\lambda_{c}(1-cos\theta)$ (4)

$\frac{1}{4}\Delta \lambda_{max}=\frac{1}{2}\lambda_{c}(1-cos\theta)$ (5)

If we want $\frac{1}{4}\Delta \lambda_{max}=\frac{1}{2}\lambda_{c}$ , $1-cos\theta$ must be equal to 1:

$1-cos\theta=1$ (6)

Finding $\theta$ :

$1-1=cos\theta$

$0=cos\theta$

$\theta=cos^{-1} (0)$

Finally:

$\theta=90\°$ This is the scattering angle that will produce $\frac{1}{4}\Delta \lambda_{max}$

The unit used to measure electric current is the ampere (A). Now, assume that the current delivered at a wall socket reaches the

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

T = 0.017s

Explanation:

period is the time it takes a particle to make one oscillation

An electric current is periodic in nature

The current reaches 3.8A ten times.

So there must have been 10 cycles (10 periods) in 0.17s. let 'T' be the period:

$T=\frac{t}{n}$

t is the total time interval

n is the number of oscillations

$T=\frac{0.17}{10}$

10T = 0.17

T = 0.17/10 = 0.017s

klio [65]

Your teacher is right. The moon can be seen early in the morning sometimes and late at night. Different phases are only visible on certain days as one day might be full quarter, the next full moon, the next first quarter, etc.
