Photons of infrared radiation with wavelengths longer than those of visible light will have what kind of energy compared to that
densk [106]

Answer:

Infrared photons carry lower radiation energy than the visible light.

Explanation:

  • Each photon carries an energy that is directly proportional to its frequency, being this proportionality constant the Planck's constant h.
  • So, we can write the energy of a single photon as follows:

       E = h*\nu (1)

  • Since there exists an inverse relationship between wavelength and frequency, and infrared radiation has longer wavelengths, this means that its frequency is lower than the one of the visible light.
  • So, an infrared photon carries less energy that one of the visible light.

Two identical 0.400 kg masses are pressed against opposite ends of a light spring of force constant 1.75 N/cm, compressing the s
nlexa [21]

Answer:

0.853 m/s

Explanation:

Total energy stored in the spring = Total kinetic energy of the masses.

1/2ke² = 1/2m'v².................... Equation 1

Where k = spring constant of the spring, e = extension, m' = total mass, v = speed of the masses.

make v the subject of the equation,

v = e[√(k/m')].................... Equation 2

Given: e = 39 cm = 0.39 m, m' = 0.4+0.4 = 0.8 kg, k = 1.75 N/cm = 175 N/m.

Substitute into equation 2

v = 0.39[√(1.75/0.8)

v = 0.39[2.1875]

v = 0.853 m/s

Hence the speed of each mass = 0.853 m/s

Your friend has slipped and fallen. To help her up, you pull with a force F, as the drawing shows. The vertical component of thi
sineoko [7]

This question can be solved using the concept of the composition of the vector.

(a) The magnitude of F is b "164.27 N".

(b) The angle of the vector from horizontal is " ".

(a)

From the composition of the rectangular components of a vector, we know that the magnitude of the resultant vector is given by the following formula:

F = \sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}

where,

F_x = x-component of the force = 122 N

F_y = y-component of the force = 110 N

Therefore,

F = \sqrt{(122\ N)^2+(110\ N)^2}

<u>F = 164.27 N</u>

(b)

The angle of the vector is given by the following formula:

\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{F_y}{F_x})\\\\\theta = tan^{-1}(\frac{110\ N}{122\ N})\\\\

<u>θ = 42.04°</u>

A metal sphere with a mass of 0.026 kg rolls along a friction-less surface at 3.7 m/s and strikes a stationary sphefe having a m
zubka84 [21]

The force applied to the second ball by the first ball is 6.734 × 10^-4 N.

<h3>What is impulse of force?</h3>

The impulse of force is defined as the sum of the average force and the duration it is applied.

If the mass of the item remains constant, the impulse of force equals the change in momentum of the object.

Given that:  mass of a metal sphere: m = 0.026 kg.

Initial speed of the sphere: u = 3.7 m/s.

When the sphere stops completely, its change in momentum = mu - 0

= 0.026×3.7 N-s.

= 0.0962 N-s.

As the spheres are in contact for 0.007s before the second sphere is shot off down the track, the force applied  to the second ball =

change in momentum of 1st ball × time of contact

= 0.0962 × 0.007 N

= 0.0006734 N

= 6.734 × 10^-4 N.

Hence,  the force applied  to the second ball is  6.734 × 10^-4 N.
