1 answer:
nevsk [136]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The smallest possibility is 0.01E-22kgm/s

Explanation:

Using

Momentum= h/4πx

= 6.6x 10^-34Js/ 4(3.142* 50*10-12m)

= 0.01*10^-22kgm/s

A thin layer of liquid methylene iodide (n = 1.756) is sandwiched between two flat, parallel plates of glass (n = 1.50). What mu
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

t = 96.1 nm

Explanation:

For strong reflection through liquid layer we know that the path difference between two reflected light rays must be integral multiple of wavelength

now we know that the path difference of two reflected light from thin liquid layer is given as

2\mu t - \frac{\lambda}{2} = N\lambda

here we know that

\mu = 1.756

t = thickness of layer

N = 0 (for minimum thickness of layer)

\lambda = 675 nm

now we have

2(1.756) t = \frac{675 nm}{2}

t = 96.1 nm

A 1000 kg elevator accelerates upward at 1.0 m/s2 for 10 m, starting from rest. a. How much work does gravity do on the elevator
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

a)= 98kJ

b)=108kJ

c) = 10kJ

Explanation:

a. The work that is done by gravity on the elevator is:

Work = force * distance  

= mass * gravity * distance

= 1000 * 9.81 * 10  

= 98,000 J

= 98kJ

b)The net force equation in the cable

T - mg = ma

T = m(g+a)

T = 1000(9.8 + 10)

T = 10800N

The work done by the cable is

W = T × d

= 10800N × 10

= 108000

=108kJ

c) PE at 10m = 1000 * 9.81 * 10 = 98,100 J  

Work done by cable = PE +KE  

108,100 J = KE + 98,100 J  

KE = 10,000 J

= 10kJ

=

You are operating a powerboat at night. Your red sidelight must be visible to boats approaching from which direction(s)
Dmitriy789 [7]

The answer is the red sidelight on a powerboat should be visible from the front and from the left (port side).

What are Sidelights?

  • There is various combinations of lights that must be used on a boat when it is dark, and these are:
  • Sidelights: These lights are called combination lights and are red and green. The red sidelight must be visible from the port side and the green light indicates the right side (the starboard).
  • Stern light: The stern light is seen at the back end of the vessel.
  • Masthead Light: The masthead light is a white light that shines forwards and on all sides of the vessel. All powered vessels must use this light.
  • All-Round white light: This light is the major light that is used to join the masthead light and the stern light. This single light is visible to all vessels from all directions.
  • Thus, as a rule for a boat rider, he should show the vision of red light and it should be visible from the front and from the left (port side).

Particle A and particle B are held together with a compressed spring between them. When they are released, the spring pushes the
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

 K_a = 8,111 J

Explanation:

This is a collision exercise, let's define the system as formed by the two particles A and B, in this way the forces during the collision are internal and the moment is conserved

initial instant. Just before dropping the particles

          p₀ = 0

final moment

          p_f = m_a v_a + m_b v_b

          p₀ = p_f

          0 = m_a v_a + m_b v_b

tells us that

          m_a = 8 m_b

         

           0 = 8 m_b v_a + m_b v_b

           v_b = - 8 v_a                    (1)

indicate that the transfer is complete, therefore the kinematic energy is conserved

starting point

           Em₀ = K₀ = 73 J

final point. After separating the body

          Em_f = K_f = ½ m_a v_a² + ½ m_b v_b²

           K₀ = K_f

           73 = ½ m_a (v_a² + v_b² / 8)

           

we substitute equation 1

           73 = ½ m_a (v_a² + 8² v_a² / 8)

           73 = ½ m_a (9 v_a²)

           73/9 = ½ m_a (v_a²) = K_a

            K_a = 8,111 J
