A sky diver, with parachute unopened, falls 625 m in 15.0 s. Then she opens her parachute and falls another 362 m in 139 s. What

is her average velocity (both magnitude and direction) for the entire fall?
Magnitude m/s
So for the free fall v = (a)(t) and because a = g in this instance I did v = (9.8)(15.0) = 147 m/s
So for the free fall velocity = 147
The second part is confusing, The parachute is open so a != 9.8 because of the wind drag on the chute, does a = 1/2gt^2? Cause if it does I think I can figure it out.

Answer:

v_{avg} = 6.41 m/s

Explanation:

Average velocity is defined as the ratio of total displacement of the motion and total time taken in that motion

here we know that initially the sky diver drops without opening parachute by total displacement 625 m

then she open her parachute and drop another 362 m

so first it took time t = 15 s to drop without open parachute

then it took t = 139 s to drop next displacement

so here total displacement is given as

d = 625 m + 362 m

total time is given as

t = 15 s + 139 s

so average velocity is given as

v_{avg} = \frac{625 + 362}{15 + 139}

v_{avg} = 6.41 m/s

A 0.43 m long and 0.43 m wide loop is moved at a constant velocity of 0.15 m/s into a perpendicular constant magnetic field of 0
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

The magnitude of the induced voltage in the loop is 20 mV.

Explanation:

given;

length of loop, L = 0.43 m

width of loop,w = 0.43 m

velocity of moved loop, v = 0.15m/s

magnetic field strength,B = 0.31 T

To determine the magnitude of the induced voltage in the loop, we apply Faraday's law;

magnitude induced E.M.F = BLv

magnitude induced E.M.F = 0.31 x 0.43 x 0.15 = 0.02 V = 20 mV

Therefore, the magnitude of the induced voltage in the loop is 20 mV.

An electron in the n = 5 level of an h atom emits a photon of wavelength 1282.17 nm. to what energy level does the electron move
lions [1.4K]
This is an interesting (read tricky!) variation of Rydberg Eqn calculation.
Rydberg Eqn: 1/λ = R [1/n1^2 - 1/n2^2]
Where λ is the wavelength of the light; 1282.17 nm = 1282.17×10^-9 m
R is the Rydberg constant: R = 1.09737×10^7 m-1
n2 = 5 (emission)
Hence 1/(1282.17 ×10^-9) = 1.09737× 10^7 [1/n1^2 – 1/25^2]
Some rearranging and collecting up terms:
1 = (1282.17 ×10^-9) (1.09737× 10^7)[1/n2 -1/25]
1= 14.07[1/n^2 – 1/25]
1 =14.07/n^2 – (14.07/25)
14.07n^2 = 1 + 0.5628
n = √(14.07/1.5628) = 3
