A shot is fired at an angle of 60 degree horizontal with Kinetic energy E. If air resistance is ignored, the K.E at the top of t

Lapatulllka [165]

I'm not sure what "60 degree horizontal" means.

I'm going to assume that it means a direction aimed 60 degrees
above the horizon and 30 degrees below the zenith.

Now, I'll answer the question that I have invented.

When the shot is fired with speed of 'S' in that direction,
the horizontal component of its velocity is S cos(60) = 0.5 S ,
and the vertical component is S sin(60) = S√3/2 = 0.866 S . (rounded)

-- 0.75 of its kinetic energy is due to its vertical velocity.
That much of its KE gets used up by climbing against gravity.

-- 0.25 of its kinetic energy is due to its horizontal velocity.
That doesn't change.

-- So at the top of its trajectory, its KE is 0.25 of what it had originally.

That's E/4 .

Infrared waves from the sun are what make our skin feel warm on a sunny day. If an infrared wave has a frequency of 3.0 x 1012 H

djyliett [7]

Answer:

The wavelength of the infrared wave is <u>0.0001 m</u>.

Explanation:

Given:

Frequency of an infrared wave is, $f=3.0\times 10^{12}\ Hz$

We know that, infrared waves are electromagnetic waves. All electromagnetic waves travel with the same speed and their magnitude is equal to the speed of light in air.

So, speed of infrared waves coming from the Sun travels with the speed of light and thus its magnitude is given as:

$v=c=3.0\times 10^8\ m/s$

Where, 'v' is the speed of infrared waves and 'c' is the speed of light.

Now, we have a formula for the speed of any wave and is given as:

$v=f\lambda$

Where, $\lambda \to \textrm{Wavelength of infrared wave}$

Now, rewriting the above formula in terms of wavelength, $\lambda$ , we get:

$\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}$

Now, plug in $3.0\times 10^8$ for 'v', $3.0\times 10^{12}$ for 'f' and solve for $\lambda$ . This gives,

$\lambda=\frac{3.0\times 10^8}{3.0\times 10^{12}}\\\\\lambda=0.0001\ m$

Therefore, the wavelength of the infrared wave is 0.0001 m.

A tetrahedron has an equilateral triangle base with 25.0-cm-long edges and three equilateral triangle sides. The base is paralle

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

a. 7.046 Nm²/C

b. 2.348 Nm²/C

Explanation:

Data given:

Base of equilateral triangle = 25.0 cm = 0.25 m

Strength of electric field = 260 N/C

In order to find the electric flux we first have to find out the area of triangle.

Area of triangle = $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4} a^{2}$

= $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4} (0.25)^{2}$

= 0.0271 m³

Lets find electric flux,

Electric Flux = E. A

= 260×0.0271

= 7.046 Nm²/C

Now we can find the electric flux through each of the three sides.

Electric flux through three sides = $\frac{7.046}{3}$

= 2.348 N m²/C
