Alex throws a 0.15-kg rubber ball down onto the floor. The ball’s speed just before impact is 6.5 m/s and just after is 3.5 m/s.

If the ball is in contact with the floor for 0.050 s, what is the magnitude of the average force applied by the floor on the ball?

Answer:

F = 30 N  Directed up

Explanation:

We can solve this problem using the momentum and momentum relationship.

      I = ΔP

     I = ∫ F dt

As we are asked for the average force, that leaves the integral, giving

    I = F t

    F t = m v_{f} - m v₀

    F = m (v_{f}-v₀) / t

Note that, if you define the upward positive direction, the initial velocity is negative

Let's calculate

     F = 0.15 (3.5 - (-6.5)) / 0.050

     F = 30 N

Answer:

1.) Total distance = 70 m

2.) Total displacement = +30m

Explanation:

Distance is a scaler quantity. That is, we will be concerned about its magnitude only and not direction.

Total distance = 10 + 20 + 40 = 70 m

While displacement is a vector quantity. We will consider both the magnitude and its direction.

Forward direction will be positive while backward direction will be negative

Total displacement = +10 - 20 + 40

Total displacement = +30 m

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for hydrogen atomic  spectrum is as follows

energy of photon due to transition from higher orbit n₂ to n₁

E=13.6 (\frac{1}{n_1^2 } - \frac{1}{n_2^2})eV

For layman series n₁ = 1 and n₂ = 2 , 3 , 4 ,   ...   etc

energy of first line

E_1=13.6 (\frac{1}{1^2 } - \frac{1}{2 ^2})

10.2 eV

wavelength of photon = 12375 / 10.2 = 1213.2 A

energy of 2 nd line

E_2=13.6 (\frac{1}{1^2 } - \frac{1}{3 ^2})

= 12.08 eV

wavelength of photon = 12375 / 12.08 = 1024.4 A

energy of third line

E_3=13.6 (\frac{1}{1^2 } - \frac{1}{4 ^2})

12.75 e V

wavelength of photon = 12375 / 12.75 = 970.6 A

energy of fourth line

E_4=13.6 (\frac{1}{1^2 } - \frac{1}{5 ^2})

= 13.056 eV

wavelength of photon = 12375 / 13.05 = 948.3 A

energy of fifth line

E_5=13.6 (\frac{1}{1^2 } - \frac{1}{6 ^2})

13.22 eV

wavelength of photon = 12375 / 13.22 = 936.1 A
