Photon is a quantum of light or a single packet/particle of light at a given wavelength.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation: </u>

It is known that light has dual nature of wave as well as particles. Light waves can behave in wave nature as well as in particle nature depending upon the situation. So the light waves are assumed in different views to easily understand the nature of light waves.

There are several models proposed to simplify the nature of light. Among the several assumptions, one of the most prominent observations are that light waves or quantum of light are termed as photons which are made up of single packet/particles of light in a given wavelength.

An object starts from rest at time t = 0.00 s and moves in the +x direction with constant acceleration. The object travels 14.0
Reptile [31]

Answer:

28 m/s^2

Explanation:

distance, s = 14 m

time, t = 2 - 1 = 1 s

initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Let a be the acceleration.

Use third equation of motion

s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}

14 = 0 + \frac{1}{2}a\times 1^{2}

a = 28 m/s^2

Thus, the acceleration is 28 m/s^2.

Space debris left from old satellites and their launchers is becoming a hazard to other satellites. (a) Calculate the speed of a
Pie

Answer:

Part a)

v = 7407.1 m/s

Part b)

v_{rel} = 1.05 \times 10^4 m/s

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that orbital velocity at certain height from the surface of Earth is given as

v = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{R+h}}

here we know that

M = 5.98 \times 10^{24} kg

R = 6.37 \times 10^6 m

h = 900 km = 9.0 \times 10^5 m

now we have

v = \sqrt{\frac{(6.67 \times 10^{-11})(5.98 \times 10^{24})}{6.37 \times 10^6 + 9.0 \times 10^5}}

v = 7407.1 m/s

Part b)

When a loose rivet is moving in same orbit but at 90 degree with the previous orbit path then in that case the relative speed of the rivet with respect to the satellite is given as

v_{rel} = \sqrt{2} v

v_{rel} = 1.05 \times 10^4 m/s
