15 N = 15  kg m / s² = 
= 15 · 1/14.59  slug · 1 / 0.3048 =
= 15 · 0.06854 · 3.24254 = 
= 3.33 lb
Answer:  15 N is equal to 3.33 pounds.

When Simon grows (let’s say he doubles his mass) what happens to his GPE when he is at the balcony?
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

His gravitational potential energy will increase as well.

Explanation:

Let gpe represent gravitational potential energy.

gpe = mass × gravitational field strength × height

From the formula above, we can conclude that as the mass of a body increases, it's gpe increases too.

A penny has a mass of 2.50 g, a diameter of 19.55 mm, and a thickness of 1.55 mm. Calculate the density of the material from whi
Dmitry [639]
Density = (mass) divided by (volume)

We know the mass (2.5 g).  We need to find the volume.

The penny is a very short cylinder.
The volume of a cylinder is (π · radius² · height).
The penny's radius is 1/2 of its diameter = 9.775 mm.
The 'height' of the cylinder is the penny's thickness = 1.55 mm.

Volume  =  (π) (9.775 mm)² (1.55 mm)

             =  (π) (95.55 mm²) (1.55 mm)

             =  (π) (148.1 mm³)

             =        465.3 mm³

We know the volume now.  So we could state the density of the penny,
but nobody will understand what we have.  Here it is:

         mass/volume = 2.5 g / 465.3 mm³  =  0.0054 g/mm³  .

Nobody every talks about density in units of ' gram/(millimeter)³ ' .
It's always ' gram / (centimeter)³ '.
So we have to convert our number for the volume.

                         (0.0054  g/mm³)  x  (10 mm / cm)³

                 =      (0.0054 x 1,000)  g/cm³

                 =          5.37  g/cm³  .

This isn't actually very close to what the US mint says for the density
of a penny, but it's in a much better ball park than 0.0054 was.

The wavelength of red helium-neon laser light in air is 632.8 nm.(a) What is its frequency? Hz(b) What is its wavelength in glas
vekshin1
<h2>Answers:</h2>

The speed of a wave is given by:

v=f.\lambda  (1)

Where f is the frequency and  \lambda the wavelength.

In the case of light, its speed is:

c=f.\lambda (2)

On the other hand, the described situation is known as Refraction,   a phenomenon in which the light changes its direction when passing through a medium with a refractive index different from the other medium.  

In this context, the Refractive index n is a number that describes how fast light propagates through a medium or material, and is defined as the relation between the speed of light in vacuum (c=3(10)^{8}m/s) and the speed of light v in the second medium:

n=\frac{c}{v} (3)

In addition, as the light changes its direction, its wavelength changes as well:

n=\frac{\lambda_{air}}{\lambda_{glass}} (4)

Knowing this, let's begin with the answers:

<h2>a) Frequency</h2>

From equation (2) we can find f:

f=\frac{c}{\lambda}  (5)

Knowing that 1nm=(10)^{-9}m:

f=\frac{3(10)^{8}m/s}{632.8(10)^{-9}m}  

f=4.74(10)^{14}Hz}     (6)   >>>Frequency of the helium-neon laser light

<h2>b) Wavelength in glass</h2>

We already know the wavelength of the light in air \lambda_{air} and the index of refraction of the glass.

So, we only have to find the wavelength in glass \lambda_{glass} from equation (4):

\lambda_{glass}=\frac{\lambda_{air}}{n}

\lambda_{glass}=\frac{632.8(10)^{-9}m}{1.48}

\lambda_{glass}=427(10)^{-9}m=427nm   (7)   >>>Wavelength of the helium-neon laser light in glass

<h2>c) Speed in glass</h2>

From equation (3) we can find the speed vof this light in glass:

v=\frac{c}{n}

v=\frac{3(10)^{8}m/s}{1.48}

v=2.027(10)^{8}m/s   (8)  >>>Speed of the helium-neon laser light in glass
