.362 meters because in order to find meters for cm all you do is move the decimal left twice

100 cm is 1 meter. So your answer would be 0.362 meters.

An electron emitted from a filament is travelling at 1.5 x 105 m/s when it enters an acceleration of an electron gun in a televi

Crank

Answer:

The acceleration of the electron is 1.457 x 10¹⁵ m/s².

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the emitted electron, u = 1.5 x 10⁵ m/s

distance traveled by the electron, d = 0.01 m

final velocity of the electron, v = 5.4 x 10⁶ m/s

The acceleration of the electron is calculated as;

v² = u² + 2ad

(5.4 x 10⁶)² = (1.5 x 10⁵)² + (2 x 0.01)a

(2 x 0.01)a = (5.4 x 10⁶)² - (1.5 x 10⁵)²

(2 x 0.01)a = 2.91375 x 10¹³

$a = \frac{2.91375 \ \times \ 10^{13}}{2 \ \times \ 0.01} \\\\a = 1.457 \ \times \ 10^{15} \ m/s^2$

Therefore, the acceleration of the electron is 1.457 x 10¹⁵ m/s².

A hockey goalie is standing on ice. Another player fires a puck (m = 0.170 kg) at the goalie with a velocity of +41.0 m/s. (a) I

viktelen [127]

Answer:

2991.42 N

Explanation:

For this problem, we'll use the equations: momentum= mass x velocity and impulse = change in momentum, and impulse=force x time.

initial momentum; p1 = 0.17 x 41 = 6.97 kg.m/s

final momentum; p2 = 0, because final velocity is 0 m/s

Thus,

impulse = p1 - p2= 6.97 - 0 = 6.97 kg.m/s

Finally, impulse= Force x time,

Thus, Force = Impulse/time

Force= 6.97/ (2.33 x 10^(-3)) = 2991.42 N

Consider being at the top of cliff and throwing a book off the ledge. The book leaves at an angle of 52 degrees and a velocity o

Masja [62]

The vertical distance through which the book falls is determined as 1,048.8 m.

<h3>Height of the book fall</h3>

The vertical distance through which the book falls is calculated as follows;

h = vt + ¹/₂gt²

where;

h is height of fall
v is initial vertical velocity
g is acceleration due to gravity

h = (16 x sin52)(13.4) + (0.5)(9.8)(13.4²)

h = 1,048.8 m

Thus, the vertical distance through which the book falls is determined as 1,048.8 m.

Although 0 dB is often referred to as the lower threshold of human hearing, it is important to realize that the human ear is not

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

a) 3000 Hz;

b) 30 dB;

c) 1000 times.

Explanation:

a) From the human audiogram given on the figure below the black line represents the threshold for hearing the sound at each frequency. We see that the least intensity is necessary for the frequency of about 3000 Hz.

b) Using the same audiogram we see that we would need the sound of the intensity of about 30dB.

c) The least perceptible sound at 1000 Hz must be 0dB while at 100 Hz it is 30dB. These are logarithmic quantities. To transform them to the linear quantities we use the formula

$I(\text{in dB})=10\log\frac{I}{I_0(\text{at }1000\text{ Hz})},$

where $I_0(\text{at }1000\text{ Hz})$ is the hearing threshold at 1000 Hz.

Therefore we have the following

$0\text{ dB}=10\log\frac{I_1}{I_0(\text{at }1000\text{ Hz})}\quad 30\text{ dB}=10\log\frac{I_2}{I_0(\text{at }1000\text{ Hz})}$

$I_1$ is the threshold at 1000Hz and $I_2$ is the threshold at 100Hz.

By exponentiating we have

$10^0=\frac{I_1}{I_0(\text{at }1000\text{ Hz})},\quad 10^3=\frac{I_2}{I_0\text{at }1000\text{ Hz}}.$

Now dividing these two equations we get

$\frac{I_2}{I_1}=\frac{10^3}{10^0}=1000.$

Therefore, the least perceptible sound at 100Hz is 1000 times more intense than the least perceptible sound at 1000Hz.

Note: I got these values unisng the audiogram that is attached here. The one that you have might be slightly different and might yield different answers.
