What is the energy range (in joules) of photons of wavelength 410 nm to 750 nm ? Express your answers using two significant figu
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

4.9 x 10^-19 J, 2.7 x 10^-19 J

Explanation:

first wavelength, λ1 = 410 nm = 410 x 10^-9 m

Second wavelength, λ2 = 750 nm = 750 x 10^-9 m

The relation between the energy and the wavelength is given by

E = h c / λ

Where, h is the Plank's constant and c be the velocity of light.

h = 6.63 x 10^-34 Js

c = 3 x 10^8 m/s

So, energy correspond to first wavelength

E1 = (6.63 x 10^-34 x 3 x 10^8) / (410 x 10^-9) = 4.85 x 10^-19 J

E1 = 4.9 x 10^-19 J

So, energy correspond to second wavelength

E2 = (6.63 x 10^-34 x 3 x 10^8) / (750 x 10^-9) = 2.652 x 10^-19 J

E2 = 2.7 x 10^-19 J

What is the advantage in solving motion problems using energy conservation principles instead of free body diagrams
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

However, the disadvantages are:

1. Many atimes for some motion prolems, free-body diagrams has to be drawn many times so to have enough equations to solve for the unknowns. This is not the same with energy conservation principles.

2. In situations where we need to find the internal forces acting on an object, we can't truly solve such problems using free-body diagram as it captures external forces. This is not the same with energy conservation principles.

Explanation:

Often times the ideal method to use in solving motion problem related questions are mostly debated.

Energy conservation principles applies to isolated systems are useful when object changes their positions in moving upward or downward converts its potential energy due to gravity for kinetic energy, or the other way round. When energy in a system or motion remains constant that is energy is neither created nor destroyed, it can therefore be easier to calculate other unknown paramters like in the motion problem velocity, distance bearing it in mind that energy can only change from one type to another.

On the other hand, free body diagram which is a visual representation of all the forces acting on an object including their directions has so many advantages in solving motion related problems which include finding relationship between force and motion in identifying the force acting on a body.

Technician A says that current is created in the stator windings of an alternator. Technician B says that the voltage regulator
drek231 [11]

Answer:

Technician A and Technician B both are right.

Explanation:

In an AC alternator,  there are two windings

1. Stator winding (stationary)

2. Rotor winding (rotating)

The current is induced in the stationary coils due to the magnetic field produced by the rotor. The DC suppy is provided to the rotor winding via slip rings and brushes and a voltage regulator precisely controls this supply to control the current flow through the rotor.

Therefore, both technicians are right.

A device that converts high voltages to lower voltages is a(n) ________.
AysviL [449]

Answer: A) Transformer

Explanation: A Transformer is an apparatus, device or a component in a system that is used to convert high voltage into low voltage. It is used to either increase or decrease the voltage of an alternating current.

A transformer uses the basic principle of electro magnetic induction, having two or more coils, the voltage is changed from one coil to another but with thesame frequency as alternating current energy passes through them.

The parking brake on a 1000 kg Cadillac has failed, and it is rolling slowly, at 1 mph , toward a group of small children. Seein
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

0.5 mph in the opposite direction

Explanation:

m_1 = Mass of Cadillac = 1000 kg

v_1 = Velocity of Cadillac = 1 mph

m_2 = Mass of Volkswagen = 2000 kg

v_2 = Velocity of Volkswagen

In order to know the speed the system must have the momentum exchange

As the linear momentum of the system is conserved

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=0\\\Rightarrow v_2=-\dfrac{m_1v_1}{m_2}\\\Rightarrow v_2=\dfrac{1000\times 1}{2000}\\\Rightarrow v_2=-0.5\ mph

The speed of the impact is given by 0.5 mph in the opposite direction
