Answer:

3.75 MeV

Explanation:

The energy of the photon can be given in terms of frequency as:

E = h * f

Where h = Planck's constant

The frequency of the photon is 6 * 10^20 Hz.

The energy (in Joules) is:

E = 6.63 x10^(-34) * 6 * 10^(20)

E = 39.78 * 10^(-14) J = 3.978 * 10^(-13) J

We are given that:

1 eV = 1.06 * 10^(-19) Joules

This means that 1 Joule will be:

1 J = 1 / (1.06 * 10^(-19)

1 J = 9.434 * 10^(18) eV

=> 3.978 * 10^(-13) J = 3.978 * 10^(-13) * 9.434 * 10^(18) = 3.75 * 10^(6) eV

This is the same as 3.75 MeV.

The correct answer is not in the options, but the closest to it is option C.

1. A 9000 kg van was stopped at a traffic light when it rear-ended with an 850 compact car moving to the east at a velocity of 5

____ [38]

Answer:

1.785 m/s

Explanation:

The momentum can be calculated using the expression below

M1 *V1 + M2 * V2 = (M1+M2) V3

M1= mass of van=9000 kg

M2= mass of car= 850kg

V3= velocity of entangled car

V1= Velocity of the van= 0

V2= velocity of the car= 5 m/ s

Substitute the values

(900×0) + (500×5)=( 900+500)× V3

2500=1400 V3

V3=2500/1400

V3= 1.785 m/s

Hence, velocity of the entangled cars after collision is 1.785 m/s

An airliner arrives at the terminal, and its engines are shut off. The rotor of one of the engines has an initial clockwise angu

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

(a) 1200 rad/s

The angular acceleration of the rotor is given by:

$\alpha = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i}{t}$

where we have

$\alpha = -80.0 rad/s^2$ is the angular acceleration (negative since the rotor is slowing down)

$\omega_f$ is the final angular speed

$\omega_i = 2000 rad/s$ is the initial angular speed

t = 10.0 s is the time interval

Solving for $\omega_f$ , we find the final angular speed after 10.0 s:

$\omega_f = \omega_i + \alpha t = 2000 rad/s + (-80.0 rad/s^2)(10.0 s)=1200 rad/s$

(b) 25 s

We can calculate the time needed for the rotor to come to rest, by using again the same formula:

$\alpha = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i}{t}$

If we re-arrange it for t, we get:

$t = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i}{\alpha}$

where here we have

$\omega_i = 2000 rad/s$ is the initial angular speed

$\omega_f=0$ is the final angular speed

$\alpha = -80.0 rad/s^2$ is the angular acceleration

Solving the equation,

$t=\frac{0-2000 rad/s}{-80.0 rad/s^2}=25 s$
