an object traveling 200 feet per second slows to 50 feet per second in 5 seconds. Calculate the acceleration of the object
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

The acceleration of the object is -30\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity of object v_i = 200 feet/second

Final velocity of object v_f = 50 feet/second

Time of travel = 5 seconds

To calculate acceleration of the object we will find the rate of change of velocity with respect to time.

So, acceleration a is given by:

a=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}

where v_f represents final velocity, v_i represents initial velocity and t is time of travel.

Plugging in values to evaluate acceleration.

a=\frac{50-200}{5}

a=\frac{-150}{5}

a=-30\ m/s^2

The acceleration of the object is -30\ m/s^2 (Answer). The negative sign shows the object is slowing down.

In a two-slit experiment using coherent light, the distance between the slits and the screen is 1.10 m, and the distance between
Paul [167]

Answer:

D) 763 nm

Explanation:

Calculation for the wavelength of light

Using this formula

Wavelength of light=Delta Y*Distance / Length

Where,

Delta Y represent the 2nd order bright fringe

Length represent the distance between both the slits and the screen

Distance represent the Distance between the slits

Let note that cm to m = (4.2) x 10^-2 and mm to m= ( 0.0400x 10^-3)

Now Let plug in the formula

Wavelength of light=[(4.2 x 10^-2m)(0.0400 x 10^-3m) / 2(1.1m)]*10^-7 meters

Wavelength of light=[(0.042m) (0.0004m)/2.2m]*10^-7 meters

Wavelength of light =(0.0000168m/2.2m)*10^-7 meters

Wavelength of light =7.63 *10^-7 meters

Wavelength of light =763 nm

Therefore the Wavelength of light will be 763 nm
