Answer:

Wavelength λ = 7.31 × 10^-37 m

Explanation:

From De Broglie's equation;

λ = h/mv

Where;

λ = wavelength in meters

h = plank's constant = 6.626×10^-34 m^2 kg/s

m = mass in kg

v = velocity in m/s

Given;

v = 24 mi/h

Converting to m/s

v = 24mi/h × 0.447 m/s ×1/(mi/h)

v = 10.73m/s

m = 84.5kg

Substituting the values into the equation;

λ = (6.626×10^-34 m^2 kg/s)/(84.5kg × 10.73m/s)

λ = 7.31 × 10^-37 m

Answer: 7.31*10^-37

Explanation:

Given

Speed of sprinter, v = 24 mi/h

Distance to run, d = 100 m

Time needed for the run, t = 9.3 s

Mass of sprinter, m = 84.5 kg

Wavelength of sprinter, λ = ?

To solve this question, we would be using De Broglie's wavelength.

λ = h/mv, where

λ = wavelength

h = Planck's constant = 6.63*10^-34 m²kg/s

m = mass

v = velocity

To start with, we convert the speed of the sprinter from mi/h to m/s

v = 24 mi/h

1 mile = 1609 m

1 hour = 3600 s

24 mi/h = (24 * 1609) / 3600

24 mi/h = 38616 / 3600

24 mi/h = 10.73 m/s

λ = 6.63*10^-34 / 84.5 * 10.73

λ = 6.63*10^-34 / 906.685

λ = 7.31*10^-37

Therefore, the wavelength of the sprinter is 7.31*10^-37 m

gogolik [260]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let q be the charges on each spheres , 2d be the   distance between them in equilibrium , T be tension in the string and F be the force of repulsion between them

F = k q² /4d²

For equilibrium

T sin15 = F

T cos 15 = mg

tan15 = F / mg

F = mg tan15

k q² /4d² = mg tan15

k q² = 4d² x mg tan15

= 4 x( .7 sin15)² x 3.1 x 10⁻³ x 9.8 x .2679

= 1.068 x 10⁻³

q = .3444 x 10⁻⁶ C

no of electrons

=  .3444 x 10⁻⁶  / 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹

= 215.25 x 10¹⁰

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

2872.8 N

Explanation:

We have the following information

m =n72kg

Δy = 18m

t = 0.95s.

From here we use the equation

Δy=1/2at2 in order to solve for the acceleration.

So a

=( 2x 18m)/(0.95s²)

= 36/0.9025

= 39.9m/s2.

From there we use the equation

F = ma

F=(72kg) x (39.9)

= 2872.8N.

2872.8N is the average net force exerted on him in the barrel of the cannon.

Thank you!
