As the scattering angle of the photon increases, the wavelength associated with the photon increases.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The particle with quantum mechanical property is known as Compton wavelength. The wavelength of a photon increases during collision. When the scattering angle of the photon is 0 degree then the photon's wavelength increases by 0 and when the scattering angle is 180 degree then the wavelength of the photon will become double. This is known as Compton wavelength.

When a photon undergoes collision process, the photo loses its energy and this energy is transferred to the electrons. This causes energy of the photon to decrease and thus the frequency also decreases. Thus, the wavelength of the photon will increase.

a skier is gliding along 3.0 m/s on horizontal, frictionless snow. he suddenly starts down a 10 degrees incline. his speed at th

Elza [17]

... find length
(way 1) determine acceleration using force
only force act on skier is mg vertically. spilt vector we get force along the incline = mgsin(10) and f= ma so
ma = mgsin(10) or a = gsin(10)
a (along the incline)= gsin(10) = 10sin(10) = 1.74
v^2 = u^2 + 2as
15^2 = 3^2 + 2(1.74)s
s = 62.06 m

(way 2) using conservation of energy
energy (KE+PE) on top = energy at bottom
0.5m3^2 + mgh = 0.5m15^2 +0
h (height of incline) = (112.5 - 4.5)/10 = 19.8 m
length of incline = h/sin(10) = 62.2 m ; trigonometry

... find time
s = (u+v)t/2
t = 2s/(u+v) = 2(62.2)/(3+15) = 6.91 s

The chart below shows the amount of coal mined in four different states of USA in the year 2005.

ozzi

The correct answer is <span>Montana.

In fact, we see from the table that Montana is the state with the largest amount of coal mined in 2005: 120 billion tons, while all the other states have a smaller amount of coal mined (37, 68 and 78, for West Virginia, Wyoming and Illinois, respectively).</span>

A ladybug sits at the outer edge of a turntable, and a gentleman bug sits halfway between her and the axis of rotation. The turn

inn [45]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

The ladybug begins to slide

Explanation:

To solve the question we assume that the frictional force of the ladybug and the gentleman bug are the same

Where the frictional force equals $F_{Friction}$ = μ×N = m×g×μ

and the centripetal force is given by m·ω²·r

If we denote the properties of the ladybug as 1 and that of the gentleman bug as 2, we have

m₁×g×μ = m₁·ω²·r₁ ⇒ g×μ = ω²·r₁

and for the gentleman bug we have

m₂×g×μ = m₂·ω²·r₂ ⇒ g×μ = ω²·r₂

But r₁ = 2×r₂

Therefore substituting the values of r₁ =2×r₂ we have

g×μ = ω²·r₁ = g×μ = ω²·2·r₂

Therefore ω²·r₂ = 0.5×g×μ for the ladybug. That is the ladybug has to overcome half the frictional force experienced by the gentleman bug before it start to slide
