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

How are ice liquid water and water vapor different from each other?
olga_2 [115]
The molecules of ice stick together in the process of cohesion. They are tightly packed so there isn't much room to move. Liquid water is a looser hold. The molecules can go past one another, and they will take the shape of whatever container they occupy. Water vapor is loosely contained, and it will will fill whatever container it is kept in, and it will take its shape, too.

What is one way to take advantage of creating even more kinetic energy on this particular technologically advanced field
ch4aika [34]

Incomplete question. However, I provided a brief about Kinetic energy generation.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Interestingly, Kinetic energy in simple terms refers to the energy possessed by a body in motion.

It is often calculated using the formula E =  \frac{1}{2}MV^{2}

A good example of creating even more kinetic energy is a hand crank toy car that moves after you wind it a little, when the car moves it is generating another measure of K.E.

When I wave a charged golf tube at the front of the classroom with a frequency of two oscillations per second, I produce an elec
borishaifa [10]

To solve the exercise it is necessary to take into account the concepts of wavelength as a function of speed.

From the definition we know that the wavelength is described under the equation,

\lambda = \frac{c}{f}

Where,

c = Speed of light (vacuum)

f = frequency

Our values are,

f = 2Hz

c = 3*10^8km/s

Replacing we have,

\lambda = \frac{c}{f}

\lambda = \frac{3*10^8km/s}{2Hz}

\lambda = 1.5*10^8m

<em>Therefore the wavelength of this wave is 1.5*10^{8}m</em>

Will Mark Brainliest if Correct PLZ!!!!! A bullet is shot at some angle above the horizontal at an initial velocity of 87m/s on
qaws [65]

Answer:

≅50°

Explanation:

We have a bullet flying through the air with only gravity pulling it down, so let's use one of our kinematic equations:

Δx=V₀t+at²/2

And since we're using Δx, V₀ should really be the initial velocity in the x-direction. So:

Δx=(V₀cosθ)t+at²/2

Now luckily we are given everything we need to solve (or you found the info before posting here):

  • Δx=760 m
  • V₀=87 m/s
  • t=13.6 s
  • a=g=-9.8 m/s²; however, at 760 m, the acceleration of the bullet is 0 because it has already hit the ground at this point!

With that we can plug the values in to get:

760=(87)(cos\theta )(13.6)+\frac{(0)(13.6^{2}) }{2}

760=(1183.2)(cos\theta)

cos\theta=\frac{760}{1183.2}

\theta=cos^{-1}(\frac{760}{1183.2})\approx50^{o}
