An open train car, with a mass of 2130 kg, coasts along a horizontal track at the speed 2.93 m/s. The car passes under a loading

chute and, as it does so, gravel falls vertically into it for 3.03 s at the rate of 465 kg/s. What is the car's speed v f after the loading is completed

Answer:

The final speed after the loading is completed is 1.764 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of open train car, m₁ = 2130 kg

initial speed of the car, u₁ = 2.93 m/s

loading rate of gravel = 465 kg/s

time of loading = 3.03 s

mass of the gravel, m₂ = 465 kg/s x 3.03 s = 1408.95 kg

From the principle of conservation of linear momentum

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = v(m₁+m₂)

where;

v is the final speed after the loading is completed

2130 x 2.93 + 0 = v (2130 + 1408.95)

6240.9 = v (3538.95)

v = 6240.9/3538.95

v = 1.764 m/s

Therefore, the final speed after the loading is completed is 1.764 m/s

When an electron falls from a higher to a lower energy level in an atom, the photon released has a wavelength of 121.6 nm. What
yarga [219]

Answer:

\Delta E=1.64*10^{-18}J

Explanation:

The energy difference between the energy levels involved in the transition of the electron is directly proportional to the frequency of the emitted photon:

\Delta E=h\nu(1)

Where h is the Planck constant. The photon's frequency is inversely proportional to its wavelegth:

\nu=\frac{c}{\lambda}(2)

Here c is the speed of light. Replacing (2) in (1):

\Delta E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}\\\Delta E=\frac{(6.63*10^{-34}J\cdot s)(3*10^8\frac{m}{s})}{121.6*10^{-9}m}\\\Delta E=1.64*10^{-18}J

A seesaw pivots as shown in below. What is the net torque about the pivot point?
rodikova [14]

Answer:

2.3 Nm clockwise

Explanation:

Take counterclockwise to be positive and clockwise to be negative.

∑τ = (3 N) (2.5 m) − (7 N) (1.4 m)

∑τ = 7.5 Nm − 9.8 Nm

∑τ = -2.3 Nm

The net torque is 2.3 Nm clockwise.
