Power = (voltage) x (current)

1 watt = (1 volt) x (1ampere)

= 1 "volt-amp" or 1 "amp-volt" .

A marble resting near the edge of .90 m high table is given an initial horizontal speed of 1.24 m/s. What will be it’s horizonta

Maru [420]

Answer:

0.53 m

Explanation:

First of all, we have to consider the vertical motion of the ball, in order to find the time it takes for the marble to reach the ground. The initial height is $h=0.90 m$ , the initial vertical velocity is zero, while the acceleration is $g=-9.81 m/s^2$ , so the vertical position at time t is given by

$y(t)=h-\frac{1}{2}gt^2$

By demanding y(t)=0, we find the time t at which the ball reaches the ground:

$0=h-\frac{1}{2}gt^2$

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(0.9 m)}{9.81 m/s^2}}=0.43 s$

Now we can find the horizontal range of the marble: we know the initial horizontal speed (v=1.24 m/s), we know the total time of the motion (t=0.43 s), and since the horizontal speed is constant, the total distance traveled on the horizontal direction is

$x=vt=(1.24 m/s)(0.43 s)=0.53 m$

Two spacecraft are both 10 million kilometers from a star. The total power output of the star is 4 x 1025 W. Spacecraft 1 has a

Ksenya-84 [330]

The concept of power is given by the relationship between intensity and area, that is to say that power is defined as

$P = A*I$

Our values are given under the condition of,

$r_1 = 18m$

$r_2 = m$

The power is proportional to the Area, and in turn, we know that the Area of a circle is the product between $\pi$ times the radius squared, therefore the power is proportional to the radius squared.

$\text{Power} \propto r^2$

For both panels we would have to

$\frac{\text{Power by panel 1}}{\text{Power by panel 2}} = \frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2}$

$\frac{P_1}{P_2} = (\frac{18}{6})^2$

$\frac{P_1}{P_2} = 9$

Therefore the correct option is option C.9

The wave function of a particle is exp(i(kx-omegat)), where x is distance, t is time, and k and co are positive real numbers. Th

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

Momentum, $p=\hbar k$

Explanation:

The wave function of a particle is given by :

$y=exp[i(kx-\omega t)]$ ...............(1)

Where

x is the distance travelled

t is the time taken

k is the propagation constant

$\omega$ is the angular frequency

The relation between the momentum and wavelength is given by :

$p=\dfrac{h}{\lambda}$ ............(2)

From equation (1),

$k=\dfrac{2\pi}{\lambda}$

$\lambda=\dfrac{2\pi}{k}$

Use above equation in equation (2) as :

$p=\dfrac{h k}{2\pi }$

Since, $\dfrac{h}{2\pi}=\hbar$

$p=\hbar k$

So, the x-component of the momentum of the particle is $\hbar k$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

A spring in a pogo-stick is compressed 12 cm when a 40. kg girl stands on the stick. what is the force constant for the pogo-sti

il63 [147K]

Answer: It is the same amount of weight as the girl is putting on the pogo stick. When you are pushing something downward then gravity will push back with the equal amount of force.
