Answer:

area is the scalar quantity

Explanation:

Scalar quantity are those which only have magnitude and no direction.

For example: mass, time, distance etc.

Vector quantity are those which have both magnitude and direction.

For example: displacement , velocity etc.

From the given options, the quantity which is scalar is are a because it only has magnitude but no directions.

Where acceleration, velocity, displacement and force all are vector quantities., the correct answer is option B.

The magnitude of the force is 1.6*10^-16 N. The direction of force is upward.

The definition of force is the push or pull that causes a massed object to change its velocity. Force is an external agent that has the power to alter a body's resting or moving position. It has a direction and a magnitude. The total amount of forces exerted on an object is referred to as the magnitude of force.

The strength of the force increases when all the force is pulling in the same direction. When force is exerted on an item from different angles, the force's strength reduces. The amount that encapsulates the force's strength is known as its magnitude.

Find the kinetic energy of an electron whose de broglie wavelength is 34.0 nm.

dezoksy [38]

The De Broglie wavelength of the electron is
$\lambda=34.0 nm=34 \cdot 10^{-9} m$
And we can use De Broglie's relationship to find its momentum:
$p= \frac{h}{\lambda}= \frac{6.6 \cdot 10^{-34} Js}{34 \cdot 10^{-9} m}=1.94 \cdot 10^{-26} kg m/s$

Given $p=mv$ , with m being the electron mass and v its velocity, we can find the electron's velocity:
$v= \frac{p}{m}= \frac{1.94 \cdot 10^{-26} kgm/s}{9.1 \cdot 10^{-31} kg}= 2.13 \cdot 10^4 m/s$

This velocity is quite small compared to the speed of light, so the electron is non-relativistic and we can find its kinetic energy by using the non-relativistic formula:
$K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2= \frac{1}{2}(9.1 \cdot 10^{-31} kg)(2.13 \cdot 10^4 m/s)^2=2.06 \cdot 10^{-22} J$

The answer is destructive interference. You have this for both C and D. I suspect one of C or D is supposed to be constructive interference... But destructive interference is the answer

Answer:

a). 53.75 N and 101.92 N

b). 381.44 N and 723.25 N

Explanation:

$V= 77 \frac{km}{h}* \frac{1h}{3600 s} *\frac{1000m}{1 km} = 21.38 \frac{m}{s} \\V=106 \frac{km}{h}* \frac{1h}{3600 s} *\frac{1000m}{1 km} = 29.44 \frac{m}{s}$
