Physics

velikii [3]3 years ago

Answer:

The wavelengths of radio waves are much longer than the wavelength of microwaves. therefore, radio waves carry much lower energy than a microwave.

Explanation:

The wavelength of radio waves is longer than the wavelength of microwaves.

Using the equation that relates energy and wavelength:

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}

where h and c are constants (h is Planck's constant and c the constant of the velocity of light)

And \lambda is the wavelength.

What this equation tells us is that the energy is inversely proportional to the wavelength. The larger the wavelength, the lower the energy that the wave carries.

So, since the wavelength of radio waves is much longer, its energy is much lower than the energy of microwaves.

the frequency of a beam of uv light is 1.0 ×10 ^15hz what is the energy in one quantum of this light express it in ev? ​
kap26 [50]

Answer:

4.14 eV

Explanation:

f = 1.0 ×10^15 Hz

h= 6.63×10^-34 J s (  this is called PLANCK 'S CONSTANT)

ENEGY = E = ?

E = hf  ( THIS IS FORMULA FOR ENERGY OF ONE QUANTA OR ONE PHOTON )

E= 6.63×10^-34×1.0 ×10^15

E = 6.63×10^-19 J

As 1eV = 1.6×10^-19 J so changing energy in eV from joules we will divide energy by 1.6×10^-19

hence E in eV = 6.63×10^-19/(1.6×10^-19)

          E = 4.14 eV

A ball with 100 J of PE is released from a height of 10 m. What will be the KE of the ball at 5
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

The kinetic energy is: 50[J]

Explanation:

The ball is having a potential energy of 100 [J], therefore

PE = [J]

The elevation is 10 [m], and at this point the ball is having only potential energy, the kinetic energy is zero.

E_{p} =m*g*h\\where:\\g= gravity[m/s^{2} ]\\m = mass [kg]\\m= \frac{E_{p} }{g*h}\\ m= \frac{100}{9.81*10}\\\\m= 1.01[kg]\\\\

In the moment when the ball starts to fall, it will lose potential energy and the potential energy will be transforme in kinetic energy.

When the elevation is 5 [m], we have a potential energy of

P_{e} =m*g*h\\P_{e} =1.01*9.81*5\\\\P_{e} = 50 [J]\\

This energy is equal to the kinetic energy, therefore

Ke= 50 [J]

A satellite orbits a planet of unknown mass in a circular orbit of radius 2.3 x 104 km. The gravitational force on the satellite
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The  kinetic energy is KE  =  7.59  *10^{10} \  J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

       The  radius of the orbit is  r =  2.3 *10^{4} \ km  = 2.3  *10^{7} \ m

       The gravitational force is  F_g  = 6600 \ N

The kinetic energy of the satellite is mathematically represented as

       KE  =  \frac{1}{2} * mv^2

where v is the speed of the satellite which is mathematically represented as

     v  = \sqrt{\frac{G  M}{r^2} }

=>  v^2  =  \frac{GM }{r}

substituting this into the equation

      KE  =  \frac{ 1}{2} *\frac{GMm}{r}

Now the gravitational force of the planet is mathematically represented as

      F_g  = \frac{GMm}{r^2}

Where M is the mass of the planet and  m is the mass of the satellite

 Now looking at the formula for KE we see that we can represent it as

     KE  =  \frac{ 1}{2} *[\frac{GMm}{r^2}] * r

=>    KE  =  \frac{ 1}{2} *F_g * r

substituting values

       KE  =  \frac{ 1}{2} *6600 * 2.3*10^{7}

         KE  =  7.59  *10^{10} \  J

Now put the names of the planets in increasing order based on their distance from the sun
Anika [276]
The eight planets of the Solar System arranged in order from the sun:

Mercury: 46 million km / 29 million miles (.307 AU)
Venus: 107 million km / 66 million miles (.718 AU)
Earth: 147 million km / 91 million miles (.98 AU)
Mars: 205 million km / 127 million miles (1.38 AU)
Jupiter: 741 million km /460 million miles (4.95 AU)
Saturn: 1.35 billion km / 839 million miles (9.05 AU)
Uranus: 2.75 billion km / 1.71 billion miles (18.4 AU)
Neptune: 4.45 billion km / 2.77 billion miles (29.8 AU)

Astronomers often use a term called astronomical unit (AU) to represent the distance from the Earth to the Sun.

+ Pluto (Dwarf Planet): 4.44 billion km / 2.76 billion miles (29.7 AU)
