Answer:

The longest wavelength of light is 209 nm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Spring constant = 74 N/m

Mass of electron m= 9.11\times10^{-31}\ kg

Speed of light c= 3\times10^{8}\ m/s

We need to calculate the frequency

Using formula of frequency

f =\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}

Where, k= spring constant

m = mass of the particle

Put the value into the formula

f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{74}{9.11\times10^{-31}}}

f=1.434\times10^{15}\ Hz

We need to calculate the longest wavelength that the electron  can absorb

\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}

Where, c = speed of light

f = frequency

Put the value into the formula

\lambda =\dfrac{3\times10^{8}}{1.434\times10^{15}}

\lambda=2.092\times10^{-7}\ m

\lambda=209\ nm

Hence, The longest wavelength of light is 209 nm.

What is the significance of the nose end marking on a rocket or missile?
Gemiola [76]
If you're referring to the different colors that usually occur at the tip of missles, rockets and some other aircraft, it either a) signifies the end of a particular plate of metal, fabricated specifically to be for the nose. Sometimes these can even be a different alloy or metal all together. or b) this shows where the curved surface begins, so in the case of damage or imperfections due to wear, they can be repaired and measured more easily. The shape of the nose is extremely important for smooth flight, and a dent or bump formed on it can make the aircraft unstable. If you can measure from where the curve starts by the difference in color, it makes repairing or re-fabricating the part much easier. Many of these curves aren't as simple as they appear.

Show how the alternative definition of power, found in your book, can be derived by substituting the definitions of work and spe
Harman [31]

Let us consider body moves a distance S due to the force F.

Hence the work by the body W = FS

If the force is not along the direction of displacement,then the work by a body for travelling a distance S will be -

                                       W=[ Fcos\theta]*S  where    Fcos\theta is the component of the force along the direction of displacement.

                                  Hence\ W= FScos\theta

                                                        = F.S

As per the question the power P is given as -

                                                  P=\frac{W}{\delta t}

                                                         =\frac{F.S}{\delta t}

                                                         = F.\frac{S}{\delta t}

                                                         = \ F.V

Hence alternative definition of power P = F.V

Using equations, determine the temperature, pressure and density of the air for a aircraft flying at 19.5 km. Is this aircraft s
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

a) - 72.5°c

b) pressure = 3625.13 Pa

c) density =  0.063 kg/m^3

d) it is a subsonic aircraft

Explanation:

a) Determine Temperature

Temperature at 19.5 km ( 19500 m )

T = -131 + ( 0.003 * altitude in meters )

  =  -131 + ( 0.003 * 19500 ) = - 72.5°c

b) Determine pressure and density at 19.5 km altitude

Given :

Po (atmospheric pressure at sea level )  = 101kpa

R ( gas constant of air ) = 0.287 KJ/Kgk

T = -72.5°c ≈ 200.5 k

pressure = 3625.13 Pa

hence density = 0.063 kg/m^3

attached below is the remaining part of the solution

C) determine if the aircraft is subsonic or super sonic

Velocity ( v ) = \sqrt{CRT}  =  \sqrt{1.4*287*200.5 } = 283.8 m/s

hence it is a subsonic aircraft

Answer:

Since strong nuclear forces involve only nuclear particles (not electrons, bonds, etc)  items 3 and 4 are eliminated.

Again item 2 refers to bonds between atoms and is eliminated.

This leaves only item 1.

Nuclear forces are very short range forces between components of the nucleus.

Weak nuclear forces are trillions of times smaller than strong forces.

Gravitational forces are much much smaller than the weak nuclear force.
