Shtirlitz [24]3 years ago
3 0

Answer & Explanation:

A girl is driving a bicycle at a velocity of 30m/s at 40 degree North west.

Considering the above sentence, the magnitude of the bicycle velocity is 30 meters per second and the direction of the motion of the bicycle is 40 degree North west. So, the bicycle is having both magnitude and direction, so the velocity is a vector quantity.

A police officer in hot pursuit of a criminal drives her car through an unbanked circular (horizontal) turn of radius 300 m at a
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

The angle (relative to vertical) of the net force of the car seat on the officer to the nearest degree is <u>10°.</u>

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the driver is, m=55\ kg

Radius of circular turn is, R=300\ m

Linear speed of the car is, v=22.2\ m/s

Since, the car makes a circular turn, the driver experiences a centripetal force radially inward towards the center of the circular turn. Also, the driver experiences a downward force due to her weight. Therefore, two forces act on the driver which are at right angles to each other.

The forces are:

1. Weight = mg=55\times 9.8=539\ N

2. Centripetal force, 'F', which is given as:

F=\frac{mv^2}{R}\\F=\frac{55\times (22.2)^2}{300}\\\\F=\frac{55\times 492.84}{300}\\\\F=\frac{27106.2}{300}=90.354\ N

Now, the angle of the net force acting on the driver with respect to the vertical is given by the tan ratio of the centripetal force (Horizontal force) and the weight (Vertical force) and is shown in the triangle below. Thus,

\tan \theta=\frac{90.354}{539}\\\tan \theta=0.1676\\\theta=\tan^{-1}(0.1676)=9.52\approx 10°

Therefore, the angle (relative to vertical) of the net force of the car seat on the officer to the nearest degree is 10°.

A sodium vapor lamp omit waves with the frequency of 5.26x10^14 Hz. What is the wavelength of light?
koban [17]

Answer:

\lambda=5.70\times 10^{-7}\ m

Explanation:

The frequency of a sodium vapor lamp, f=5.26\times 10^{14}\ Hz

We need to find the wavelength of light. The relation between wavelength, frequency and speed of light is given by :

c=f\lambda\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{5.26\times 10^{14}}\\\\\lambda=5.70\times 10^{-7}\ m

So, the wavelength of light is equal to 5.70\times 10^{-7}\ m.
