Answer:

The car will travel 30 miles during the 30-minutes period of acceleration.

Explanation:

Given data :

Initial velocity = v₁ = 50 miles/hour

Final velocity = v₂ = 70 miles/hour

Time = t = 30 min = 0.5 hour

Using the definition of acceleration, we find the acceleration (a)

                   a = (v₂ - v₁) ÷ t

                   a = (70 - 50) ÷ 0.5

                   a = 20 ÷ 0.5

                   a = 40 miles/hour²

Using 3rd equation of motion, we find the distance travel (s)

                    2as = v₂² -  v₁²

                    2(40)s = 70² - 50²

                    80 × s = 4900 - 2500

                         s = 2400 ÷ 80

                        s = 30 miles

Nearly monochromatic light of wavelength 420 nm is split in two beams. The first beam traveled 105 nm to the screen more than th
leva [86]

Answer:

phase difference = π / 2

constructive interference

Explanation:

Given data

wavelength = 420 nm

1st beam = 105 nm

path difference = 105 nm

to find out

phase difference  and interference pattern of the two beams

solution

we use here equation of phase difference that is

phase difference = 2π / wavelength × Δx

put here value

phase difference = 2π / 420 × 105

phase difference = π / 2

and

we know that  here path difference Δx is the integral multiple of the wavelength  so it will be constructive interference

Δx is wavelength / 4

Vikki [24]

Answer:

2697.75N/m

Explanation:

Step one

This problem bothers on energy stored in a spring.

Step two

Given data

Compression x= 2cm

To meter = 2/100= 0.02m

Mass m= 0.01kg

Height h= 5.5m

K=?

Let us assume g= 9.81m/s²

Step three

According to the principle of conservation of energy

We know that the the energy stored in a spring is

E= 1/2kx²

1/2kx²= mgh

Making k subject of formula we have

kx²= 2mgh

k= 2mgh/x²

k= (2*0.01*9.81*5.5)/0.02²

k= 1.0791/0.0004

k= 2697.75N/m

Hence the spring constant k is 2697.75N/m
