Use newton's first law of motion to explain why you feel tossed around whenever a roller coaster goes over a hill or through a l

REY [17]2 years ago

Explanation:

A roller coaster is hard to stop because it has a lot of inertia. Inertia can be simplified to, "objects want to keep doing what they are doing." It's when they are forced to do something different that they are doing that is why roller coaster riders experience the float or tossing around of the ride.

Newton's first law states that an object at rest will stay at rest && an object in motion will remain in motion unless acted on by another force. With that being said you feel tossed around because you are initially at rest but when you ride the roller coaster you take it's course of motion. 

Hoped this helped!

Show that the entire Paschen series is in the infrared part of the spectrum. To do this, you only need to calculate the shortest
mr_godi [17]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the shortest wavelength in the series is shown below:-

\frac{1}{\lambda} = R(\frac{1}{n_f^2} - \frac{1}{n_i^2} )

Where

\lambda represents wavelength

R represents Rydberg's constant

n_f represents Final energy states

and n_i represents initial energy states

Now Substitute is

1.097\times 10^7\ m^{-1}\ for\ R, \infty for\ n_i,\ 3 for\ n_i,\\\\\ \frac{1}{\lambda} = R(\frac{1}{n_f^2} - \frac{1}{n_i^2} )

now we will put the values into the above formula

= 1.097\times 10^7 m^{-1}(\frac{1}{3^2} - \frac{1}{\infty^2} )\\\\ = 1.097\times10^7\ m^{-1} (\frac{1}{9} )

= 1218888.889 m^{-1}

Now we will rewrite the answer in the term of \lambda

\lambda = \frac{1}{1218888.889} m\\\\ = 0.82\times 10^{-6} m

So, the whole Paschen series is in the part of the spectrum.

For thermal equilibrium at temperature Tan appropriate measure of energy is kT where k is Boltzmann's constant. Convert the foll
Schach [20]

Answer:

1 cm⁻¹ =1.44K  1 ev = 1.16 10⁴ K

Explanation:

The relationship between temperature and thermal energy is

     E = K T

The relationship of the speed of light

    c =λ f = f / ν          1/λ= ν

The Planck equation is

          E = h f

Let's start the transformations

     c = f λ = f / ν        

     f = c ν

     E = h f

     E = h c ν

     E = KT

     h c ν = K T

     T = h c ν  / K =( h c / K) ν

Let's replace the constants

     h = 6.63 10⁻³⁴ J s

     c = 3 10⁸ m / s

     K = 1.38  10⁻²³ J / K

 

     v = 1 cm-1 (100 cm / 1 m) = 10² m-1

   

     T = (6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3. 10⁸ / 1.38 10⁻²³) 1 10²

     A = h c / K = 1,441 10⁻²

     T =  1.44K

     ν = 103 cm⁻¹ = 103 10² m

     T = (6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3. 10⁸ / 1.38 10⁻²³) 103 10²

     T = 148K

1 Rydberg = 1.097 10 7 m

As we saw at the beginning the λ=1 / v

     T = (h c / K) 1 /λ

     T = 1,441 10⁻²  1 / 1,097 10⁷

     T = 1.3 10⁻⁹ K

    E = 1Ev (1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J /1 eV) = 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J

    E = KT

    T = E/K

    T = 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ /1.38 10⁻²³

    T = 1.16 10⁴ K

professor190 [17]
Neither set of choices is correct.

If the distance is tripled, then the forces decrease to

1/9 Fg. and. 1/9 Fe.

Note. When the objects are charged, the gravitational force Fg can almost always be ignored, since Fe is like 10^40 greater when the quantities of mass and charge are similar.

A long uniform board weighs 52.8 N (10.6 lbs) rests on a support at its mid point. Two children weighing 206.0 N (41.2 lbs) and
natima [27]

The upward force exerted on the board by the support is 530.8 N.

<h3>Upward force exerted on the board by the support</h3>

The sum of the upward forces is equal to sum of downward forces;

total downward forces = 52.8 N + 206 N + 272 N = 530.8 N

downward force = upward force = 530.8 N

Thus, the upward force exerted on the board by the support is 530.8 N.
