When driving straight down the highway at a constant velocity you have to give the engine a little gas (which means an added ext

ernal force of tires pushing on the road) to maintain your uniform motion. Explain why this does not violate Newton’s 1st law. What are the other forces acting on the vehicle?"

Alona [7]4 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

This does not violate Newton's 1st law because the net force would still be 0 in order to produce uniform motion (aka constant velocity). The other forces acting on the vehicles is air resistance which is non-zero. So we need car internal force to counter balance this force, which require extra gas for the car.

Drupady [299]

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ₓ = 15 m/s cos 20° = 14.10 m/s

aₓ = 0 m/s²

v₀ᵧ = 15 m/s sin 20° = 5.13 m/s

aᵧ = -9.8 m/s²

t = 1.5 s

Find: Δx and Δy

Δx = v₀ₓ t + ½ aₓ t²

Δx = (14.10 m/s) (1.5 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (1.5 s)²

Δx = 21.1 m

Δy = v₀ᵧ t + ½ aᵧ t²

Δy = (5.13 m/s) (1.5 s) + ½ (-9.8 m/s²) (1.5 s)²

Δy = -3.33 m

What is the energy (in joules) and the wavelength (in meters) of the line in the spectrum of hydrogen that represents the moveme
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

The energy is 4.57x10^{-19} J and the wavelength is 4.34x10^{-7}m for the line in the spectrum of hydrogen that represents the movement of an electron from Bohr orbit with n = 2 to the orbit with n = 5.

<em>In what part of the electromagnetic spectrum do we find this radiation? </em>

In the Ultraviolet part of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Explanation:

The energy of the absorbed photon can be known by the difference in energy between the two states in which the transition is happening (In this case from n = 2 to n = 5):

E = E_{upper}-E_{lower}   (1)

The permitted energy for the atom of hydrogen, according with the Bohr's model, is defined as:

E_{n} = -\frac{13.606 eV}{n^{2}}   (2)

Or it can be expressed in Joules, since 1eV = 1.60x10^{-19}J

E_{n} = -\frac{2.18x10^{-18} J}{n^{2}}   (3)

Where the value -2.18x10^{-18} represents the energy of the ground state¹ and n is the principal quantum number.

For the case of n = 2:

E_{2} = -\frac{2.18x10^{-18} J}{(2)^{2}}

E_{2} = -5.45x10^{-19} J

For the case of n = 5:

E_{5} = -\frac{2.18x10^{-18} J}{(5)^{2}}

E_{5} = -8.72x10^{-20} J

Replacing those values in equation (1) it is gotten:

E = -8.72x10^{-20} J-(-5.45x10^{-19} J )

E = 4.57x10^{-19} J

The wavelength can be determined by means of the Rydberg formula:

\frac{1}{\lambda} = R(\frac{1}{n_{l}^{2}}-\frac{1}{n_{u}^{2}})  (4)

Where R is the Rydberg constant, with a value of 1.097x10^{7}m^{-1}

For this particular case n_{l} = 2 and n_{u} = 5:

\frac{1}{\lambda} = 1.097x10^{7}m^{-1}(\frac{1}{(2)^{2}}-\frac{1}{(5)^{2}})

\frac{1}{\lambda} = 1.097x10^{7}m^{-1}(0.21)

\frac{1}{\lambda} = 2303700m^{-1}

\lambda = \frac{1}{2303700m^{-1}}

\lambda = 4.34x10^{-7}m

So the energy is 4.57x10^{-19} J and the wavelength is 4.34x10^{-7}m for the line in the spectrum of hydrogen that represents the movement of an electron from Bohr orbit with n = 2 to the orbit with n = 5.

<em>In what part of the electromagnetic spectrum do we find this radiation? </em>

In the Ultraviolet part of the electromagnetic spectrum.

The density of dry air at room temperature and atmospheric pressure Is 1.2 kg m-3. What volume would 6 kg of dry air occupy unde
larisa [96]

Answer:

V = 5 m³

Explanation:

The density of air, d = 1.2 kg/m³

Mass of the dry air, m = 6 kg

We need to find the volume o the gas. We know that, the density of an object is given by mass divided by its volume. So,

d=\dfrac{m}{V}\\\\V=\dfrac{m}{d}\\\\V=\dfrac{6}{1.2}\\\\V=5\ m^3

So, the volume of the dry air is 5 m³.
