Explanation:

It is known that the relation between force and acceleration is as follows.

                F = -ma ............ (1)

Also,    acceleration (a) = \frac{v^{2} - u^{2}}{2s} ......... (2)

The given data is as follows.

                 v = 0,          u = 14 m/s,    s = 1

Therefore, putting the values of expression (2) into expression (1) as follows.

                F = -m \times \frac{v^{2} - u^{2}}{2s}

                   = -61 kg \times \frac{(0)^{2} - (14)^{2}}{2 \times 1}

                   = 5978 N

thus, we can conclude that net force on the person if he or she is wearing a seat belt and if the air bag deploys is 5978 N.

A particle moving in the x direction is being acted upon by a net force f(x)=cx2, for some constant
makkiz [27]
The work-energy theorem states that the change in kinetic energy of the particle is equal to the work done on the particle:
\Delta K = W
The work done on the particle is the integral of the force on dx:
W= \int\limits^{3L}_L {F(x)} \, dx = \int\limits^{3L}_L {cx^2} \, dx = \frac{26}{3}cL^3
So, this corresponds to the change in kinetic energy of the particle.

What is the length of a spring that has 450J of potential energy and a spring constant of 650N/m?
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

Δx = 1.2 m

Explanation:

The CHANGE of spring length) (Δx) can be found using PS = ½kΔx²

Δx = √(2PS/k) = √(2(450)/650) = 1.17669... ≈ 1.2 m

The actual length of the spring is unknown as it varies with material type, construction method, extension or compression, and other variables we have no clue about.

A visible light has a wavelength of 727.3 nm. Determine its frequency, energy per photon, and color.
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

f=4.12\times 10^{14}\ Hz and E=2.73\times 10^{-19}\ J

Explanation:

The wavelength of a visible light is 727.3 nm.

727.3\ nm=727.3 \times 10^{-9}\ m

The formula is as follows :

c=f\lambda

f is the frequency of the visible light

f=\dfrac{c}{\lambda}\\\\f=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{727.3 \times 10^{-9}}\\\\f=4.12\times 10^{14}\ Hz

Energy of a photon is given by :

E = hf, h is Planck's constant

E=6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 4.12\times 10^{14}\\\\E=2.73\times 10^{-19}\ J

Red color has a frequency of 4.12\times 10^{14}\ Hz and energy per photon is 2.73\times 10^{-19}\ J.
