What is escape velocity ​

Physics
1 answer:
DanielleElmas [232]3 years ago
8 0
Escape velocity is the speed that an object needs to be traveling to break free of a planet or moon's gravity well and leave it without further propulsion. For example, a spacecraft leaving the surface of Earth needs to be going 7 miles per second, or nearly 25,000 miles per hour to leave without falling back to the surface or falling into orbit.

A diffraction grating with 161 slits per centimeter is used to measure the wavelengths emitted by hydrogen gas. At what angles i
Tresset [83]

Answer:

\theta_1  = 0.400^o

\theta_2   =0.378^o

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  number of slits per cm is  k =  161\  slits\  per\  cm =  161 \  slits\  per\  0.01 m

    The order of the maxima is  n =  1

    The wavelength are  \lambda_1 = 434 nm  =  434 *10^{-9} \ m \ \ \ , \lambda_2 = 410nm =  410 *10^{-9} \  m

The  spacing between the slit is mathematically represented as

           d =  \frac{ 0.01}{k}

=>       d =  \frac{ 0.01}{161}

=>         d = 6.211 *10^{-5} \ m

Generally the condition for constructive interference is  

        n\lambda  =  d \ sin \theta

At  \lambda_1

      \theta _1  =  sin^{-1} [ \frac{1  *  434 *10^{-9}}{6.211 *10^{-5}} ]

      \theta_1  = 0.400^o

At  \lambda_2

       \theta _2  =  sin^{-1} [ \frac{1  *  410 *10^{-9}}{6.211 *10^{-5}} ]

       \theta_2   =0.378^o

Work done= ________ transferred
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

Work done= Energy transferred

Explanation:

Work is the transfer of energy. In physics we say that work is done on an object when you transfer energy to that object. If you put energy into an object, then you do work on that object (mass).

A car travels 460km in 7 hours. How would you calculate the speed?
NemiM [27]

Answer:

speed = 65.7 km/h

Explanation:

speed = distance over time, so you'd do 460 km/7 hrs to get your speed in km/h
