<span>Using a calculator, we find that Usain Bolt's average speed over the 100 meter race was about 23.2 miles per hour. Note that some of the numbers in this calculation, namely 100, 3600, and 5280 are exact while 3.28 and 9.63 are only approximate. Since the approximate numbers only have 3 significant digits we only report three digits in the final answer.

two masses are separated by 1 m. suppose the masses are moved so they are 2 m apart how will the gravitational force change
Verdich [7]
The gravitational force would get stronger because the farther the two masses are separated the more gravitational force will be used to pull them together the closer they are the less gravitational pull is used to pull them together

a block measures 3.5 cm long 2.8 cm wide and 1.6 cm deep. the density of the block 2.5 g/cm. calculate the volume of the block.
luda_lava [24]
Volume of a block can be found by: length × width × height. So:

3.5cm × 2.8cm × 1.6cm = 15.68cm^3

The first ionization energy of a hydrogen atom is 2.18 aj (attojoules). what is the frequency and wavelength, in nanometers, of
jasenka [17]

1) Frequency: 3.29\cdot 10^{15}Hz

the energy of the photon absorbed must be equal to the ionization enegy of the atom, which is

E=2.18 aJ=2.18\cdot 10^{-18} J

The energy of a photon is given by

E=hf

where h=6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js is the Planck's constant. By using the energy written above and by re-arranging thsi formula, we can calculate the frequency of the photon:

f=\frac{E}{h}=\frac{2.18\cdot 10^{-18} J}{6.63\cdot 10^{-34} Js}=3.29\cdot 10^{15} Hz


2) Wavelength: 91.2 nm

The wavelength of the photon can be found from its frequency, by using the following relationship:

\lambda=\frac{c}{f}

where c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s is the speed of light and f is the frequency. Substituting the frequency, we find

\lambda=\frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}{3.29\cdot 10^{15}Hz}=9.12\cdot 10^{-8} m=91.2 nm

A truck loaded with sand accelerates along a highway. The driving force on the truck remains constant. What happens to the accel
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Acceleration will increase.

Explanation:

The relation between force, mass and acceleration according to the Newton's second law of motion is given as:

F = ma

We are given that the driving force on the truck remains constant, so F is constant here. We can rewrite the above equation as:

a=\frac{F}{m}

Since, F is constant, the acceleration of the truck is inversely proportional to the mass.

There is a hole at the bottom of the truck through which the sand is being lost at a constant rate. Since, the sand is being lost, the overall mass of the truck is being reduced.

Since, the acceleration of the truck is inversely proportional to the mass, the reduced mass will result in an increased acceleration.

So, the acceleration of the truck will increase.
