Joshua was driving to a friend’s house to study. During his trip, he started on pavement. At one point, he hit an ice patch on t

he road, but then he returned to pavement. The road then turned into a gravel road. Which best describes the frictional force of his trip?
a. Friction increased when he went from pavement to ice and then decreased two more times.
b. Friction decreased when he went from pavement to ice and then increased two more times.
c. Friction increased when he went from pavement to ice and then decreased one additional time.
d. Friction decreased when he went from pavement to ice and then increased one additional time.

Answer:

b. Friction decreased when he went from pavement to ice and then increased two more times.

Explanation:

Frictional force depends on the normal force of the surface and a friction coefficient.

F_{f} = -\mu N

Since we're talking about the same car, the value of N will remain constant whereas μ will represent the change in the frictional coefficient of the surface. Now we consider the different surfaces, cars will slide in an icy road which means that the frictional coefficient is smaller than the pavement.

After Joshua returns to the pavement road, the resulting frictional force increases and will do so one more time when he reaches the gravel road. Gravel roads have greater frictional coefficients than pavement roads which means the frictional force will increase a second time.

Find the acceleration of a car with the mass of 1,200 kg and a force of
Mashutka [201]

Answer:9.17 m/s^2

Explanation:

mass=1200kg

Force=11 x 10^3 N

Acceleration=force ➗ mass

Acceleration=11 x 10^3 ➗ 1200

Acceleration=9.17

Acceleration=9.17 m/s^2

What is the energy per photon absorbed during the transition from n = 2 to n = 3 in the hydrogen atom?
adelina 88 [10]

Answer : The energy of one photon of hydrogen atom is, 3.03\times 10^{-19}J

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the wavelength of hydrogen atom.

Using Rydberg's Equation:

\frac{1}{\lambda}=R_H\left(\frac{1}{n_i^2}-\frac{1}{n_f^2} \right )

Where,

\lambda = Wavelength of radiation

R_H = Rydberg's Constant  = 10973731.6 m⁻¹

n_f = Higher energy level = 3

n_i= Lower energy level = 2

Putting the values, in above equation, we get:

\frac{1}{\lambda}=(10973731.6)\left(\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{3^2} \right )

\lambda=6.56\times 10^{-7}m

Now we have to calculate the energy.

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}

where,

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{-34}Js

c = speed of light = 3\times 10^8m/s

\lambda = wavelength = 6.56\times 10^{-7}m

Putting the values, in this formula, we get:

E=\frac{(6.626\times 10^{-34}Js)\times (3\times 10^8m/s)}{6.56\times 10^{-7}m}

E=3.03\times 10^{-19}J

Therefore, the energy of one photon of hydrogen atom is, 3.03\times 10^{-19}J
