Answer:

a=-1.388\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Initial velocity of car, u = 50 km/h = 13.88 m/s

It stops, v = 0

Time, t = 10 s

We need to find the car's deceleration while slowing down. As the car is slowing down, it will have deceleration. It can be calculated as follows :

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{0-13.88 }{10}\\\\a=-1.388\ m/s^2

So, the deceleration of the car is 1.388\ m/s^2.

Degger [83]

Answer:

λ₁ = 87.5 10⁻¹² m ,  λ₂ =  2.175 10⁻¹⁰ m,    E₂ = 5.8 10³ eV

Explanation:

In this case you can use the law of conservation of energy, all the energy of the electron is converted into energized emitted photons

Let's reduce to the SI system

          E₀ = 20 10³ eV (1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J / 1eV) = 3.2 10⁻¹⁵ J

          Δλ = 1.30 A = 0.13 nm = 0.13 10⁻⁹ m

          Ef = E₁ + E₂

         E₀ = Ef

         E₀ = E₁ + E₂

The energy can be found with the Planck equation

          E = h f

          c = λ f

          f = c / λ

          E = hc / λ

They indicate that the wavelength of the second photon is

 

           λ₂ =  λ₁ +0.130 10⁻⁹

We replace

           E₀ = hv / λ₁ + hc / ( λ₁ + 0.130 10⁺⁹)

           E₀ / hv = 1 / λ₁ + 1 / ( λ₁ + 0.13 10⁻⁹)

          3.2 10⁻¹⁵ / (6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3 10⁸) = ( λ₁ + 0.13 10⁻⁹ +  λ₁) /  λ₁ ( λ₁ + 0.13 10⁻⁹)

          1.6 10¹⁰ ( λ₁² +0.13 10⁻⁹  λ₁) = 2  λ₁ + 0.13 10⁻⁹

           λ₁² + 0.13 10⁻⁹  λ₁ = 1.25 10⁻¹⁰  λ₁ + 8.125 10⁻²¹

            λ₁² + 0.005 10⁻⁹  λ₁ = 8.125 10⁻²¹

            λ₁² + 5 10⁻¹²  λ₁ - 8.125 10⁻²¹ = 0

Let's solve the second degree equation

            λ₁ = [-5 10⁻¹² ±√((5 10⁻¹²)² + 4 8.125 10⁻²¹)] / 2

    λ₁ = [-5 10⁻¹² ±√(25 10⁻²⁴ +32.5 10⁻²¹)] / 2 = [-5 10⁻¹² ±√ (32525 10⁻²⁴)] / 2

             λ₁ = [-5 10⁻¹² ± 180 10⁻¹²] / 2

            λ₁ = 87.5 10⁻¹² m

             λ₂ = -92.5 10⁻¹² m

We take the positive wavelength

The wavelength of the photons is

            λ₁ = 87.5 10⁻¹² m

            λ₂ =  λ₁ + 0.13 10⁻⁹

             λ₂ = 87.5 10⁻¹² + 0.13 10⁻⁹

             λ₂ = 0.2175 10⁻⁹ m = 2.175 10⁻¹⁰ m

The energy after the first deceleration is

            E₂ = E₀ –E₁

            E₂ = E₀ –hc / λ₁

            E₂ = 3.2 10⁻¹⁵ - 6.63 10⁺³⁴ 3 10⁸ / 87.5 10⁻¹²

            E₂ = 3.2 10⁻¹⁵ - 2.27 10⁻¹⁵

             E₂ = 0.93 10⁻¹⁵ J

             E₂ = 0.93 10⁻¹⁵ J (1 eV / 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J)

             E₂ = 5.8 10³ eV

nata0808 [166]

Choices 'C' and 'D' are both correct.

(Except in 'C', changing the temperature from 1°C to 3°C is not usually
described as 'cooling', and it's not the water's 'mass' that changes.  But
water does contract in volume during that change.)

Define compound and list two examples.
Liono4ka [1.6K]
A compound is a substance that consists of two or more elements, which is chemically combined, meaning that it could only be split by chemical means. 

Examples:-

- NaCl is salt, chemically combined of Sodium and Chloride. 

- H2O is water, chemically combined of Hydrogen and oxygen.

If both of these balls are traveling down a bowling lane at the SAME speed, which one would would have more kinetic energy?
Mariana [72]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>Ball A has more kinetic energy</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

As we know that Kinetic energy is given by

K. E = 1/2 mv²

Since K E is dependent upon both mass and velocity so increasing mass will produce more kinetic energy if the speed remains constant

As the mass of ball A is greater than ball B so we can say that the kinetic energy of ball is more than ball B
