Answer:

zero.

Explanation:

The condition for an object to be in equilibrium is that there is no resulting force acting on it, in other words, that the force on the object is zero:

F=0

and by Newton's second law we know that

F=ma

where m is the mass of the object, and a its acceleration.

So combining the two things:

F=ma=0

⇒ma=0, This equation is fulfilled when a=0

Wich tells us that for the the block to be in equilibrium, the acceleration must be zero:

a=0

A diffraction grating is placed 1.00 m from a viewing screen. Light from a hydrogen lamp goes through the grating. A hydrogen sp
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

λ = 396.7 nm

Explanation:

For this exercise we use the diffraction ratio of a grating

           d sin θ = m λ

in general the networks works in the first order m = 1

we can use trigonometry, remembering that in diffraction experiments the angles are small

           tan θ = y / L

           tan θ = \frac{sin \theta}{cos \theta} = sin θ

           sin θ = y / L

we substitute

          d \  \frac{y}{L} = m λ

with the initial data we look for the distance between the lines

           d = \frac{m \lambda \ L}{y}

           d = 1 656 10⁻⁹ 1.00 / 0.600

            d = 1.09 10⁻⁶ m

for the unknown lamp we look for the wavelength

           λ = d y / L m

           λ = 1.09 10⁻⁶ 0.364 / 1.00 1

           λ = 3.9676 10⁻⁷ m

           λ = 3.967 10⁻⁷ m

         

we reduce nm

           λ = 396.7 nm

An archer shoots an arrow 75 m distant target; the bull's-eye of the target is at the same height as the release height of the a
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

16.25^{\circ}

Explanation:

R = Horizontal range of projectile = 75 m

v = Velocity of projectile = 37 m/s

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81\ \text{m/s}^2

Horizontal range is given by

R=\dfrac{v^2\sin2\theta}{g}\\\Rightarrow \theta=\dfrac{\sin^{-1}\dfrac{Rg}{v^2}}{2}\\\Rightarrow \theta=\dfrac{\sin^{-1}\dfrac{75\times 9.81}{37^2}}{2}\\\Rightarrow \theta=16.25^{\circ}

The angle at which the arrow is to be released is 16.25^{\circ}.

An airplane maintains a speed of 585 km/h relative to the air it is flying through as it makes a trip to a city 815 km away to t
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

a)   t = 1.47 h    b) t = 1.32 h

Explanation:

a)  In this problem the plane and the wind are in the same North-South direction, whereby the vector sum is reduced to the scalar sum (ordinary). Let's calculate the total speed

     v = v_{f}f - v_{w}

     v = 585 -32.1

     v = 552.9 km / h

We use the speed ratio in uniform motion

     v = x / t

     t = x / v

     t = 815 /552.9

     t = 1.47 h

b)  We repeat the calculation, but this time the wind is going in the direction of the plane

      v=  v_{f}f - v_{w}

      v 585 + 32.1

      v = 617.1 km / h

      t = 815 /617.1

      t = 1.32 h
