A dynamite blast at a quarry launches a rock straight upward, and 1.7 s later it is rising at a rate of 17 m/s. Assuming air res

istance has no effect on the rock, calculate its speed (a) at launch and (b) 4.9 s after launch.

Answer:

(a) v_0= 34m/s

(b) v=14m/s

Explanation:

We can derive the initial speed of the rock from the equation of the speed in function of the time:

v=v_0-gt\\\\\implies v_0=v+gt

Using the given values for the speed at time t=1.7s, we get:

v_0=17m/s+(9.8m/s^{2})(1.7s)=34m/s

In words, the speed of the rock at launch is 34m/s (a).

Next, we use this to calculate the speed at t=4.9s:

v=v_0-gt\\\\v= 34m/s-(9.8m/s^{2})(4.9s)=-14m/s

This means that the speed of the rock at 4.9s after the launch is 14m/s (b), and the negative sign means that it is moving downwards.

A 50.0 kg driver is riding at 35.0 m/s in her red sports car when she must suddenly slam on the brakes to avoid
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

3500N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of driver  = 50kg

Speed  = 35m/s

Time  = 0.5s

Unknown:

Average force the seat belt exerts on her = ?

Solution:

The average force the seat belt exerts on her can be deduced from Newton's second law of motion.

   F = mass x acceleration

So;

     F  = mass x  \frac{change in velocity }{time}

  F  = 50 x \frac{35}{0.5}    = 3500N

When the electron in a hydrogen atom moves from n = 6 to n = 1, light with a wavelength of ________ nm is emitted?
Oduvanchick [21]
First we find the energy level with the following formula, where a is the energy level, n1 is the final energy level, n2 is the starting energy level and r is Rydberg's constant in Joules
a = r \times ( \frac{1}{n1}  -  \frac{1}{n2} )
We insert the values

a = 2.18 \times  {10}^{ - 18}  \times ( \frac{1}{ {1}^{2} } -  \frac{1}{ {6}^{2} }  )
= 2.12 \times {10}^{ - 18}
The wavelength is found with this formula, where h is Planck's constant and c is the speed of light
wavelength =  \frac{h \times c}{a}
Finally we insert the values
\frac{6.626 \times  {10}^{ - 34}  \times 3 \times  {10}^{8} }{2.12 \times  {10}^{ - 18} }  = 9.376 \times  {10}^{ - 8}
Which is the same as 93.8 nm
