Answer:

6 m/s

Explanation:

mass of moving car m1=5000 kg

initial velocity of moving car vi1=?

mass of car at rest = m2=10000 kg

initial velocity of car at rest = vi2=0

final velcoities of both cars after collision = vf1=vf2= 2m/s

using conservation of momentum rule

m1vi1+m2vi2=m1vf1+m2vf2

putting values

==> 5000 × vi1 + 1000 × 0 = 5000 × 2 + 10000 × 2

==> 5000 ×vi1 = 2 × 15000

==> vi1 = 2 × 15000 ÷ 5000

==> vi1= 2×3=6 m/s

barxatty [35]
The amplitude did not change when the recurrence was expanded on the grounds that the long headstrong time of the heart forestalls adjustment. It is the most extreme removal or separation moved by a point on a vibrating body or wave measured from its balance position. It is equivalent to the one-a large portion of the length of the vibration way.

A slit of width 2.0 μm is used in a single slit experiment with light of wavelength 650 nm. If the intensity at the central maxi
Valentin [98]

Answer:

The intensity at 10° from the center is 3.06 × 10⁻⁴I₀

Explanation:

The intensity of light I = I₀(sinα/α)² where α = πasinθ/λ

I₀ = maximum intensity of light

a = slit width = 2.0 μm = 2.0 × 10⁻⁶ m

θ = angle at intensity point = 10°

λ = wavelength of light = 650 nm = 650 × 10⁻⁹ m

α = πasinθ/λ

= π(2.0 × 10⁻⁶ m)sin10°/650 × 10⁻⁹ m

= 1.0911/650 × 10³

= 0.001679 × 10³

= 1.679

Now, the intensity I is

I = I₀(sinα/α)²

= I₀(sin1.679/1.679)²

= I₀(0.0293/1.679)²

= 0.0175²I₀

= 0.0003063I₀

= 3.06 × 10⁻⁴I₀

So, the intensity at 10° from the center is 3.06 × 10⁻⁴I₀

The convection zone is the outer most layer of the suns blank hot gases rise and then blank hear the loops form by singing cool
lora16 [44]

Answer:

Explanation:

The sun is made up of 6 parts. Namely:

  1. The core
  2. The radiation zone
  3. The convection zone
  4. The photosphere
  5. The chromosphere and
  6. The corona

The convection area is just above the radiation zone. As materials from the suns core are heated, they rise above the radiation zone towards the EDGE of the convection area then sinks back again into the radiative zone for more heat.

The radiative zone is 12.6 million Fahrenheit hot and is just above the core.

The core of the son is not solid but plasma whose motion is like gas. Its temperature stands at 48 million Fahrenheit

Cheers
