Answer:

(a) Acceleration of the bag will be a=16.214m/sec^2

(B) Weight of the bag will be 137.2 N

Explanation:

We have given mass of the bag m = 14 kg

Force with which bag is lifted = 227 N

(A) According to newtons law we force is equal to F = ma , here m is mass and a is acceleration

So $227=14\times a$

$a=16.214m/sec^2$

(b) Acceleration due to gravity $g=9.8m/sec^2$

We know that weight is given by W = mg , here m is mass and g is acceleration due to gravity

So weight $W=mg=14\times 9.8=137.2N$

So weight of the bag will be 137.2 N

What's the difference between electromagnetic waves and electromagnetic spectrum?

White raven [17]

The difference between the two is, well for one

Spectrum: The entire range that the "waves" could be such, as visible light, x-ray's and so on.

Waves: These are different because they aren't telling you or showing the entire spectrum just which they length that they are.

It may confuse you but it makes sense to me (Sorry)

The equation for the speed of an electromagnetic wave is

igomit [66]

Answer:

c = 1 / √(ε₀*μ₀)

Explanation:

The speed of the electromagnetic wave in free space is given in terms of the permeability and the permittivity of free space by

c = 1 / √(ε₀*μ₀)

where the permeability of free space (μ₀) is a physical constant used often in electromagnetism and ε₀ is the permittivity of free space (a physical constant).

Ultraviolet light of wavelength 270 nm strikes a metal whose work function is 2.3 eV.What is the shortest de Broglie wavelength

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

The shortest de Broglie wavelength for the electrons that are produced as photoelectrons is 0.81 nm

Explanation:

Given;

wavelength of ultraviolet light, λ = 270 nm

work function of the metal, φ = 2.3 eV = 2.3 x 1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ J = 3.685 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

The energy of the ultraviolet light is given by;

$E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}\\\\E = \frac{(6.626*10^{-34} )(3*10^{8}) }{270*10^{-9} }\\\\E = 7.362 * 10^{-19} \ J$

The energy of the incident light is related to kinetic energy of the electron and work function of the metal by the following equation;

E = φ + K.E

K.E = E - φ

K.E = (7.362 x 10⁻¹⁹ J) - (3.685 x 10⁻¹⁹ J )

K.E = 3.677 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

mv² = 2K.E

velocity of the electron is given by;

$V = \sqrt{\frac{2K.E}{m} }\\\\V = \sqrt{\frac{2(3.677*10^{-19}) }{9.1*10^{-31} } }\\\\V = 8.99*10^{5} \ m/s$

the shortest de Broglie wavelength for the electrons is given by;

$\lambda = \frac{h}{mv}\\ \\\lambda = \frac{6.626*10^{-34} }{(9.1*10^{-31})( 8.99*10^{5} )}\\\\\lambda = 8.10*10^{-10} \ m\\\\\lambda = 0.81 \ nm$

Therefore, the shortest de Broglie wavelength for the electrons that are produced as photoelectrons is 0.81 nm

5. From the definition of work, explain why only the vertical height of the stairs is measured. Hint: Think of the data table co

natulia [17]

The motivation behind why the vertical stature of the stairs is the main thing measured is that it uncovers to us how much gravity is up against the individual and their weight, so we require this data to decide how much vitality and power we have to get up the stairs.

Which statement about an atom is correct?

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

$\boxed{ \sf{The \: electron \: has \: a \: negative \: charge \: and \: is \: found \: outside \: of \: the \: nucleus}}$

Option A is correct

Explanation:

Let's check the options:

A: The electron has a negative charge and is found outside of the nucleus.

$\mapsto{}$ Yeah! It's TRUE . An electron is a negatively charged particle and is located outside the nucleus of an atom.

B : The neutron has a negative charge and is found in the nucleus.

$\mapsto{}$ No! It's FALSE . A neutron carries no charge. i.e it is a neutral particle and found inside the nucleus.

C : The proton has no charge and is found in the nucleus.

$\mapsto{}$ No! It's FALSE.A proton is a positively charged particle present inside nucleus of an atom.

D : The neutron has no charge and is found outside of the nucleus.

$\mapsto{}$ I agree that the neutron has no charge. But it is found inside the nucleus not outside . So, this statement is FALSE .

Hence, we found our answer! :D

A. The electron has a negative charge and is found outside of the nucleus is the correct statement about an atom.

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D
