Answer:

a) 4.31 m/s²

b) 215.5 m

Explanation:

a) According to Newton's first law of motion

The net force applied to particular mass produced acceleration, a, according to

F = ma

F = 140 N

m = 32.5 kg

a = ?

140 = 32.5 × a

a = 140/32.5 = 4.31 m/s²

b) Using the equations of motion, we can obtain the distance travelled by the object in t = 10 s

u = initial velocity of the probe = 0 m/s (since it was initially at rest)

a = 4.31 m/s²

t = 10 s

s = distance travelled = ?

s = ut + at²/2

s = 0 + (4.31×10²)/2 = 215.5 m

How to use kinetic energy to calculate velocity

BartSMP [9]

As we know the formula of kinetic energy is

$KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

here given that

KE = 150,000 J

mass = 120 kg

we can use this to find speed

$150,000 = \frac{1}{2} * 120 * v^2$

$v^2 = 2500$

$v = 50 m/s$

So speed of above object is 50 m/s

Olivia wants to find out whether a substance will fluoresce. She says she should put it in a microwave oven. Do you agree with h

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Disagree.
Fluoresce objects will only glow when put under actual Ultraviolet light. This is due to the molecules becoming excited by the ultraviolet radiation.

Microwaves give micro-waves that are present in another spectrum of wave length and will not be able to fluoresce the molecules. If it’s not “ultra violet “.... it’s not going to glow.

Parallel rays of monochromatic light with wavelength 571nm illuminate two identical slits and produce an interference pattern on

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

$8.8\times 10^{-6} W/m^2$

Explanation:

We are given that

Wavelength, $\lambda=571 nm=571\times 10^{-9} m$

$1 nm=10^{-9} m$

R=75 cm= $\frac{75}{100}=0.75 m$

1 m=100 cm

$d=0.640 mm=0.64\times 10^{-3} m$

$1 mm=10^{-3} m$

$a=0.434 mm=0.434\times 10^{-3} m$

$y=0.830 mm=0.830\times 10^{-3} m$

$I_0=5.00\times 10^{-4}W/m^2$

$tan\theta=\frac{y}{R}$

$\theta=\frac{0.830\times 10^{-3}}{0.75\times 10^{-2}}$

$\theta=1.1\times 10^{-3}rad$

$tan\theta\approx \theta$

Because $\theta$ is small.

$\phi=\frac{2\pi dsin\theta}{\lambda}$

$\sin\theta\approx \theta$ ,

Therefore

$\phi=\frac{2\times\pi\times 0.64\times 10^{-3}\times 1.1\times 10^{-3}}{571\times 10^{-9}}$

$\phi=7.74 rad$

$\beta=\frac{2\pi a\theta}{\lambda}$

$\beta=5.3 rad$

$I=I_0cos^2(\frac{\phi}{2})(\frac{sin\frac{\beta}{2}}{\frac{\beta}{2}})^2$

$I=5\times 10^{-4}cos^2(\frac{7.74}{2})(\frac{sin\frac{5.3}{2}}{\frac{5.3}{2}})^2$

$I=8.8\times 10^{-6} W/m^2$

The angle between incident ray and reflected ray is 80 degrees. What is the value of angle of incidence?

saul85 [17]

Answer:

The angle of incident ray is 40°.

Explanation:

Given that the angle of incident and reflected ray are the same. In this question, we had given that both angles added up will gives you 80° so you have to divide it by 2 :

incident + reflected = 80°

Let incident = reflected = θ

θ + θ = 80°

2θ = 80°

θ = 80° ÷ 2

= 40°
