On a cloudless day, the sunlight that reaches the surface of the earth has an intensity of about W/m². What is the electromagnet
Otrada [13]

Answer:

1.907 x 10⁻⁵ J.

Explanation:

Given,

Volume of space, V = 5.20 m³

Assuming the intensity of sunlight(S) be equal to 1.1 x 10³ W/m².

Electromagnetic energy = ?

E = \mu V

E = (\dfrac{S}{c})\times V

where c is the speed of light.

E = (\dfrac{1.1\times 10^3}{3\times 10^8})\times 5.20

E = 1.907\times 10^{-5}\ J

Hence, Electromagnetic energy is equal to 1.907 x 10⁻⁵ J.

One horse is pulling a 755 kg sled straight ahead applying a force of 1988 N. If the acceleration of the sled is 1.36 m/s2, what
Inessa [10]

Answer:

The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.13

Explanation:

Newton's second law states that the acceleration of an object is proportional to the net force on it, the factor of proportionality is the mass. So, we can express that law mathematically as:

\sum\overrightarrow{F}=m\overrightarrow{a} (1)

With F the net force, m the mass and a the acceleration of the object. In our case we're interested on what's happening to the sled, then we have to analyze the forces on it, those forces are the weight and the normal force on the vertical direction and the pulling force and frictional force in the horizontal direction. So, because (1) is a vector equation we can express that in their vertical (y) and horizontal (x) components:

F_y=ma_y (2)

F_x=ma_x (3)

On y we have that the acceleration is zero because the sled is not moving upward or downward, remember that the net force on y is the weight (W) pointing downward and the normal force pointing upward:

F_y=W+n=0

Following the convention that positive is upward and negative downward, W=mg=(755)(-9.81):

F_y=(755)(-9.81)+n=0

n=7406.55 N (4)

Now on the x direction we have the sum of the forces is the pulling force (T) and friction force (f)

F_x=F+f=ma_x

Choosing the direction where the horse is pulling F=1988N and the acceleration should be positive too, then:

1988+f=m(1.36)

f=(755)(1.36)-1988=-961.2 N

The negative sign means it's in the opposite direction the horse is pulling

The frictional force is related with the coefficient of kinetic friction in the next way:

|f|=\mu_k n

with μk the coefficient of kinetic friction, and n the normal force that we already found on (4), so we simply solve the last equation for μk:

\mu_k=\frac{|f|}{n}=\frac{961.2}{7406.55}=0.13

When you irradiate a metal with light of wavelength 433 nm in an investigation of the photoelectric effect, you discover that a
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

The right solution is:

(a) 2.87 eV

(b) 1.4375 eV

Explanation:

Given:

Wavelength,

= 433 nm

Potential difference,

= 1.43 V

Now,

(a)

The energy of photon will be:

E = \frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{433\times 10^{-9}}

  = 4.59\times 10^{-19} \ J

or,

  = \frac{4.59\times 10^{-19}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}

  = 2.87 \ eV

(b)

As we know,

⇒ Vq=\frac{hc}{\lambda}-\Phi_0

By substituting the values, we get

⇒ 1.43\times 1.6\times 10^{19}=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{433\times 10^{-9}}-\Phi_0

⇒                       \Phi_0=2.3\times 10^{-19} \ J

or,

⇒                            =\frac{2.3\times 10^{-19}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}

⇒                            =1.4375 \ eV
