Answer:

The jet will fly 2400 km.

Explanation:

Given the velocity of the jet flying toward the east is 1,500 kmph toward the east.

We need to find the distance covered in 1.6 hours.

In our problem we are given speed and time, we can easily determine the distance using the following formula.

Distance=Speed\times Time

Distance=1500\times 1.6=2400\ km

So, the supersonic jet will travel 2400 km in 1.6 hours toward the east from its starting point.

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

72 J

Explanation:

Total kinetic energy will be tge sum of rotational and translational energy.

Rotational kinetic energy is given by 0.5I\omega^{2} where I is moment of inertia which is given by mr^{2} and here m is mass, r is radius. Also, v=\omega r hence making \omega the subject then \omega=\frac {v}{r} where v is the velocity.

Rotational kinetic energy=0.5I\omega^{2}=0.5mr^{2}\times(\frac {v}{r})^{2}= 0.5mv^{2}

This is same as the formula for translational kinetic energy which is given by 0.5mv^{2}

Therefore, total kinetic energy= 0.5mv^{2}+0.5mv^{2}=mv^{2}

Substituting m with 2 kg and v with 6 m/s then total energy will be 2\times 6^{2}=72 J

1. In a particular experiment to study the photoelectric effect, the frequency of the incident light and the temperature of the
shutvik [7]

Answer: 1. B. The number of electrons emitted from the metal per second increases.

2. The maximum speed of the emitted electrons increases.

The stopping potential increases

Explanation:

Photoelectric effect is simply referred to as the emission of electrons that occurs when there's an electromagnetic radiation. An example of such electromagnetic radiation is when material is being hit by light.

Assuming that the light incident on the metal surface causes electrons to be ejected from the metal, the number of electrons emitted from the metal per second increases if the intensity of the incident light is increased.

Also, if the initial light incident on the metal surface causes electrons to be ejected from the metal, the maximum speed of the emitted electrons increases and the stopping potential increases.

A beam of light strikes a sheet of glass at an angle of 57.0°. with the normal in air. You observe that red light makes an angle
Lena [83]

Answer:

a) Red: 1.34

Violet: 1.40

b) Red: 2.23\times10^8\frac{m}{s}

Violet: 2.14\times10^8\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

a) We should use Snell's law to find the index of refraction:

n_{1}sin\theta_{i}=n_{2}sin\theta_{t}

with n1 the index of refraction of air, n2 the index of refraction of the glass, θi the angle of the incident ray respects the normal an θt the angle between the refracted ray an the normal. It's common to approximate n1=1

solving n2 for red light:

\frac{sin\theta_{i}}{sin\theta_{t}}=n_{2}

n_2=\frac{sin57.0}{sin38.1}= 1.34

solving n2 for violet light:

\frac{sin\theta_{i}}{sin\theta_{t}}=n_{2}

n_2=\frac{sin57.0}{sin36.7}= 1.40

b) Index of refraction on a medium is defined as the ratio between the velocity of electromagnetic waves on vacuum (velocity of light c) and the velocity in medium (v):

n_2=\frac{c}{v}

solving v for red:

v=\frac{c}{n_2}=\frac{3\times10^8}{1.34}=2.23\times10^8\frac{m}{s}

solving v for violet

v=\frac{c}{n_2}=\frac{3\times10^8}{1.40}=2.14\times10^8\frac{m}{s}

What force is a contact force?
kondaur [170]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Contact force A contact force is any force that requires contact to occur. ... Contact forces are often decomposed into orthogonal components, one perpendicular to the surface (s) in contact called the normal force, and one parallel to the surface (s) in contact, called the friction force. In the Standard Model of modern physics, the four fundamental forces of nature are known to be non-contact forces.
