Answer: 150 m

Explanation:

velocity = 22 m/s

t = 6.8 s

velocity = $\frac{distance}{time}$

distance = velocity × time

= 22 × 6.8

= 149.6 m

≈ 150 m

If the photon scatters in the backward direction, what is the magnitude of the linear momentum of the electron just after the co

Strike441 [17]

Momentum is a vector quantity, and is always conserved. Whenever a collision occurs between two objects, the objects behave under the principle of conservation of momentum. Therefore, if an object moves in the direction opposite to its original direction after a collision, then this indicates that the momentum of the colliding object was greater than the object under consideration.

When I wave a charged golf tube at the front of the classroom with a frequency of two oscillations per second, I produce an elec

borishaifa [10]

To solve the exercise it is necessary to take into account the concepts of wavelength as a function of speed.

From the definition we know that the wavelength is described under the equation,

$\lambda = \frac{c}{f}$

Where,

c = Speed of light (vacuum)

f = frequency

Our values are,

$f = 2Hz$

$c = 3*10^8km/s$

Replacing we have,

$\lambda = \frac{c}{f}$

$\lambda = \frac{3*10^8km/s}{2Hz}$

$\lambda = 1.5*10^8m$

<em>Therefore the wavelength of this wave is $1.5*10^{8}m$ </em>

A converging lens has a focal length of 20 cm. An object 1 cm tall is placed 10 cm from the center of the lens. What is the heig

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer: 2 cm

Explanation:

Given , for a converging lens

Focal length : $f=20\ cm$

Height of object : $h=1\ cm$

Object distabce from lens : $u=-10\ cm$

Using lens formula: $\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u}$ , we get

$\dfrac{1}{20}=\dfrac{1}{v}+\dfrac{1}{10}$ , where v = image distance from the lens.

On solving aboive equation , we get

$\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{20}-\dfrac{1}{10}=\dfrac{1-2}{20}=\dfrac{-1}{20}\Rightarrow\ v=-20\ cm$

Formula of Magnification : $m=\dfrac{v}{u}=\dfrac{h'}{h}$ , where h' is the height of image.

Put value of u, v and h in it , we get

$\dfrac{-20}{-10}=\dfrac{h'}{1}\\\\\Rightarrow\ h'=2\ cm$

Hence, the height of the image is 2 cm.

A woman launches a boat from one shore of a straight river and wants to land at the point directly on the opposite shore. If the

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

If she stands on the North side of a river flowing to the East at 5 mph,

she must head towards the SouthWest to arrive on the South side of the river directly across from her starting point and we have

x^2 + 5^2 = 10^2 where x is her speed directly across the river

x = (75)^1/2 = 8.66 mph towards the South

sin theta = 5 / 10 = 1/2

She must angle the boat at 30 deg from straight South

Assume that a pendulum used to drive a grandfather clock has a length L0=1.00m and a mass M at temperature T=20.00°C. It can be

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

The period will change a 0,036 % relative to its initial state

Explanation:

When the rod expands by heat its moment of inertia increases, but since there was no applied rotational force to the pendulum , the angular momentum remains constant. In other words:

ζ= Δ(Iω)/Δt, where ζ is the applied torque, I is moment of inertia, ω is angular velocity and t is time.

since there was no torque ( no rotational force applied)

ζ=0 → Δ(Iω)=0 → I₂ω₂ -I₁ω₁ = 0 → I₁ω₁ = I₂ω₂

thus

I₂/I₁ =ω₁/ω₂ , (2) represents final state and (1) initial state

we know also that ω=2π/T , where T is the period of the pendulum

I₂/I₁ =ω₁/ω₂ = (2π/T₁)/(2π/T₂)= T₂/T₁

Therefore to calculate the change in the period we have to calculate the moments of inertia. Looking at tables, can be found that the moment of inertia of a rod that rotates around an end is

I = 1/3 ML²

Therefore since the mass M is the same before and after the expansion

I₁ = 1/3 ML₁² , I₂ = 1/3 ML₂² → I₂/I₁ = (1/3 ML₂²)/(1/3 ML₁²)= L₂²/L₁²= (L₂/L₁)²

since

L₂= L₁ (1+αΔT) , L₂/L₁=1+αΔT , where ΔT is the change in temperature

now putting all together

T₂/T₁=I₂/I₁=(L₂/L₁)² = (1+αΔT) ²

finally

%change in period =(T₂-T₁)/T₁ = T₂/T₁ - 1 = (1+αΔT) ² -1

%change in period =(1+αΔT) ² -1 =[ 1+18×10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹ *10 °C]² -1 = 3,6 ×10⁻⁴ = 3,6 ×10⁻² % = 0,036 %
