A physics student is sitting at the beach. She feels the warm Sun shining on her back, the warm sand under her feet, and a cool

breeze blowing in from the water. Identify each type of heat transfer she is experiencing.

She feel warm due to sun shining on her back which shows the transfer of energy due to Radiation Mode of heat transfer.

Because in this case we do not need any medium to transfer the heat and all energy is transferred due to electromagnetic waves.

She feels warm sand under her feet which shows the heat transfer due to conduction mode.

Because in this mode of heat transfer the heat is transmitted by direct contact.

A cool breeze is blowing from the water which shows the heat transfer due to convection mode.

Here thermal energy is being transferred by the moving medium molecules.

A heavy object and a light object are dropped from the same height. If we neglect air resistance, which will hit the ground firs
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

None, both objects will hit ground at the same time.

Explanation:

  • Assuming no air resistance present, and that both objects start from rest, we can apply the following kinematic equation for the vertical displacement:

        \Delta h = \frac{1}{2}*g*t^{2}  (1)

  • As the left side in (1) is the same for both objects, the right side will be the same also.
  • Since g is constant close to the surface of the Earth, it's also the same for both objects.
  • So, the time t must be the same for both objects also.

A package is dropped from a helicopter moving upward at 15m/s. If the helicopter was 1000m above the ground when the package was
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

yi = Initial height of the helicopter

yf = final height of the helicopter

vyi = component of the initial vertical velocity of the helicopter

g = gravity constant (9.8m/s^2)

yf = yi + vyideltat - 1/2gt^2

0m = 1000m + (15m/2)deltat - 1/2(9.8m/s^2)t^2

-1000m = (15m/s)t - (-4.9m/s^2)t^2

Use the quadratic formula

4.8t^2 - 15t - 1000 = 0

t1 = 15.75s and t2 = -12.65

t2 is rejected, time can't be negative

Thus, it takes 15.75s before the package strikes the ground.

Find the wavelength of the third line in the lyman series, and identify the type of em radiation.
Natalija [7]

The wavelength of the third line in the Lyman series, and identify the type of EM radiation

In this series, the spectral lines are obtained when an electron makes a transition from any high energy level (n=2,3,4,5... ). The wavelength of light emitted in this series lies in the ultraviolet region of the electromagnetic spectrum.

1 / lambda = R(h)* ( \frac{1}{(n1)^{2} } -   \frac{1}{(n2)^{2} })

                 = 109678 ( \frac{1}{1^{2} } -  \frac{1}{3^{2} } )

                 = 109678 (8/9)

   Lambda = 9 / (109678 * 8 )

                  = 102.6 * 10^{-9} m = 102.6 nm
