The correct answer is D.

The instantaneous velocity of a body is given by the gradient of the tangent drawn to the point in the position- time graph.

The tangents drawn to points A and B slopes upwards and thus have a positive gradient, showing that the particle has velocity in the positive direction.

The tangent drawn to point E slopes down wards and hence its gradient is negative. The velocity of the particle is also finite at E, but in opposite direction to that at A and B.

However, point D lies at the top of the peak in the position- time graph. A tangent drawn to the point D is flat and parallel to the time axis. The gradient of the tangent is zero, implying that the velocity of the [article at D is zero.

Thus, from the position- time graph, it can be seen that the velocity of the article at D is zero.

Calculate the minimum wavelength (λ0) for the continuous spectrum of X-rays emitted when.. a) 30-kV electrons strike a cobalt (C

Sholpan [36]

Explanation:

The relationship between the wavelength and the potential difference V is given by :

$\lambda=\dfrac{h}{\sqrt{2me}}\times \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{V}}$

Putting the values of known parameters,

$\lambda=\dfrac{12.28}{\sqrt{V} }\times 10^{-10}\ m$

(a) $V=30\ kV=30000\ V$

$\lambda=\dfrac{12.28}{\sqrt{30000} }\times 10^{-10}\ m$

$\lambda=7.08\times 10^{-12}\ m$

(b) $V=60\ kV=60000\ V$

$\lambda=\dfrac{12.28}{\sqrt{60000} }\times 10^{-10}\ m$

$\lambda=5.01\times 10^{-12}\ m$

Hence, this is the required solution.

an athlete runs 300 m up a hill at a steady speed of 3.0 m/s. She then immediately runs the same distance at 6.0 m/s . What is h

mina [271]

Answer:

4.0 m/s

Explanation:

In the first part of the run, the athlete runs a distance of

$d_1 = 300 m$

at a speed of

$v_1 = 3.0 m/s$

So, the time he/she takes is

$t_1 = \frac{d_1}{v_1}=\frac{300}{3.0}=100 s$

In the second part of the run, the athlete covers an additional distance of

$d_2 = 300 m$

with a speed

$v_2 = 6.0 m/s$

So, the time taken in this second part is

$t_2 = \frac{d_2}{v_2}=\frac{300}{6.0}=50 s$

So, the total distance covered is

d = 300 m + 300 m = 600 m

And the total time taken

t = 100 s + 50 s = 150 s

Therefore, the average speed for the entire trip is

$v=\frac{d}{t}=\frac{600}{150}=4.0 m/s$
