Luda [366]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

a \approx \: 0.001 \: m {s}^{ - 2}

Explanation:

Given:

initial \:  velocity \:  (u) = 0 \\  \\ Final  \: Velocity \:  (v) = 72 km /h   \\  \\ Time \:  (t) = 5 \:  hours \\  \\ Acceleration \:  (a) =?  \\  \\  \because \: a =  \frac{v - u}{t}  \\  \\  \therefore \: a =  \frac{72 - 0}{5}  \\  \\ a =  \frac{72}{5}  \\  \\ a = 14.5 \: km {h}^{ - 2}  \\  \\ a =  \frac{14.5 \times 1000}{3600\times 3600} \: m {s}^{ - 2}   \\  \\ a = 0.00111882716 \\  \\ a \approx \: 0.001 \: m {s}^{ - 2}

A 12.0-kg package in a mail-sorting room slides 2.00 m down a chute that is inclined at 53.0° below the horizontal. The coeffici
zvonat [6]

Answer

given,

mass of the package = 12 kg

slides down distance = 2 m

angle of inclination = 53.0°

coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.4

a) work done on the package by friction is

              W_f = -μk R d

                   = -μk (mg cos 53°)(2.0)

                   =-(0.4)(8.0 )(9.8)(cos 53°)(2.0)

                   = -37.75 J

b)

work done on the package by gravity is

             W_g = m (g sin 53°) d

                   = (8.0 )(9.8 )(sin 53°)(2.0 )

                   =125.23 J

c)

the work done on the package by the normal force is

             W_n = 0

d)

the net work done on the package is

           W = -37.75 + 125.23 + 0

           W = 87.84 J

If the ultraviolet photon has a wavelength of 249 nm and one of the photons emitted by the fluorescent material has a wavelength
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

601 nm

Explanation:

Energy of photon having wavelength of λ nm

= \frac{1244}{\lambda}eV

Energy of 249 nm photon

=\frac{1244}{249}

=4.996 eV

Similarly energy of 425nm photon

=\frac{1244}{425}

=2.927 eV

Difference = 2.069 eV.

This energy will give rise to another photon whose wavelength will be

λ = \frac{1244}{2.069}

= 601 nm.
