Answer:

The change in velocity is 15.83 [m/s]

Explanation:

Using the Newton's second law we have:

ΣF = m*a

The force in the graph is 185 N, therefore:

$185=0.369*a\\Where\\a=acceleration made it by the force [m/s^2]$

$a=501.35[m/s^2]$

Now using the following kinematic equation:

$V^{2}=Vi^{2} + 2*a*(x-xi) \\where\\V=final velocity [m/s]\\Vi= initial velocity [m/s] = 0 the hockey disk is in rest when receives the hit.\\ x = Final position [m] = 0.4 m\\xi = initial position [m] = 0.15m\\$

Now replacing the values:

$V^{2}=0 + 2*501.35*(0.4-0.15)\\ \\V= 15.83[m/s]$

The distance between the first and fifth minima of a single-slit diffraction pattern is 0.500 mm with the screen 37.0 cm away fr

WARRIOR [948]

In the single-slit experiment, the displacement of the minima of the diffraction pattern on the screen is given by
$y_n= \frac{n \lambda D}{a}$ (1)
where
n is the order of the minimum
y is the displacement of the nth-minimum from the center of the diffraction pattern
$\lambda$ is the light's wavelength
D is the distance of the screen from the slit
a is the width of the slit

In our problem,
$D=37.0 cm=0.37 m$
$\lambda=530 nm=5.3 \cdot 10^{-7} m$
while the distance between the first and the fifth minima is
$y_5-y_1 = 0.500 mm=0.5 \cdot 10^{-3} m$ (2)

If we use the formula to rewrite $y_5, y_1$ , eq.(2) becomes
$\frac{5 \lambda D}{a} - \frac{1 \lambda D}{a} =\frac{4 \lambda D}{a}= 0.5 \cdot 10^{-3} m$
Which we can solve to find a, the width of the slit:
$a= \frac{4 \lambda D}{0.5 \cdot 10^{-3} m}= \frac{4 (5.3 \cdot 10^{-7} m)(0.37 m)}{0.5 \cdot 10^{-3} m}= 1.57 \cdot 10^{-3} m=1.57 mm$

1. State the law of conservation of energy and what it means for you as a human considering how energy works.

Arturiano [62]

Answer: 1. The law of consevation of energy sates that energy can neither be created nor destroyed. It can only be transformed or transfered from one form to another. The law of conservation of energy is found everywhere for example, Water falls from the sky, converting potential energy to kinetic energy.

2. Different forms of energy are related because energy cannot be created or destroyed. they can all be transformed into from one form to another.

Which statement is true of a wave that’s propagating along the pavement and girders of a suspension bridge?

alexandr1967 [171]

The statement which is true of a wave that’s propagating along the pavement and girders of a suspension bridge is A. The wave is mechanical, with particles vibrating in a direction that is parallel to that of the wave, forming compressions and rarefactions.
