The Burj Khalifa in Dubai is the world's tallest building. The structure is 828 m 828 m (2716.5 ft) and has more than 160 storie

s. A tourist is obviously using the elevator to reach their hotel room and after a long ride finally arrives at the correct floor, where the tourist has − 2.01 × 10 5 J −2.01×105 J of potential energy. If the 86.4 kg 86.4 kg tourist has zero potential energy at the top of the building, how high ( h ) (h) is the hotel room from the ground? The acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m / s 2 .

Answer:

h = height of the hotel room from the ground floor = 237.4m

Explanation:

Change in Potential Energy of tourist = ΔPE = PE2 – PE1 = mgh

PE1 is the potential energy of tourist at the ground floor

PE1 is the potential energy of tourist at the top (hotel room)

Given

PE1 = − 2.01 × 10⁵ J

PE2 = 0J

PE2 – PE1 = mgh

0 – (− 2.01 × 10⁵ J) = mgh

2.01 × 10⁵ J = 86.4×9.8×h

h = 2.01 × 10⁵/(86.4×9.8) = 237.4m

An open pipe of length 0.39 m vibrates in the third harmonic with a frequency of 1400 Hz what is the distance from the center of
Svetach [21]

Length of the pipe = 0.39 m

Number of harmonics = 3

Now there are 3 loops so here we can say

3\times \frac{\lambda}{2} = 0.39

\lambda = 0.26 m

now here at the center of the pipe it will form Node

we need to find the distance of nearest antinode

So distance between node and its nearest antinode will be

d = \frac{\lambda}{4}

d = \frac{0.26}{4} = 0.065 m = 6.5 cm

So the distance will be 6.5 cm

For the following types of electromagnetic radiation, how do the wavelength, frequency, and photon energy change as one goes fro
KIM [24]

Answer:

Wavelength, frequency and the photon energy changes as the one goes across the ranges of the electro-magnetic radiations.

Explanation:

Electro-magnetic radiations may be defined as the form of energy that is radiated or given by the electro-magnetic radiations. The visible light that we can see is the one of the electro-magnetic radiations. Other forms are the radio waves, gamma waves, UV rays, infrared radiations, etc.

The wavelength of the radiations decreases as we go from a. radio waves -- b. infrared radiation -- c. visible light -- d. ultraviolet radiation -- e. gamma radiation.

The frequency of the radiations increases when we move from a. radio waves -- b. infrared radiation -- c. visible light -- d. ultraviolet radiation -- e. gamma radiation.

The photon energy of the radiations increases when we move from a. radio waves -- b. infrared radiation -- c. visible light -- d. ultraviolet radiation -- e. gamma radiation.
