Choose the correct statement concerning units of power or energy. a. A kilojoule (kJ) is a unit of power. b. A gigawatt (GW) is
1 answer:
Answer:
A kilowatt (kW) is a unit of power.
Explanation:
The power of an object is given by :
Here,
E is the energy required
t is time
The SI unit of power is Watts and the SI unit of energy is Joule. the commercial unit of energy is kilowatt per hour.
Option (1) : A kilojoule (kJ) is a unit of power is incorrect.
Option (2) : A gigawatt (GW) is a unit of energy is incorrect.
Option (3) : A watt (W) is a unit of energy is incorrect.
Option (4) : A kilowatt x hour per year (kWh/yr) is a unit of energy is incorrect.
Option (4) : A kilowatt (kW) is a unit of power is correct.
Hence, the correct option is (d).

Answer:
there will be collision
Explanation:
= speed of sue = 34 m/s
= speed of van = 5.20 m/s
= speed of sue relative to van =
= 34 - 5.20 = 28.8 m/s
= stopping distance after brakes are applied
= distance between sue and van = 160 m
= final speed of sue = 0 m/s
= acceleration = - 1.80 m/s²
Using the kinematics equation
m
Since
hence there will be collision
Answer:
The angle of recoil electron with respect to incident beam of photon is 22.90°.
Explanation:
Compton Scattering is the process of scattering of X-rays by a charge particle like electron.
The angle of the recoiling electron with respect to the incident beam is determine by the relation :
....(1)
Here ∅ is angle of recoil electron, θ is the scattered angle, h is Planck's constant, is mass of electron, c is speed of light and f is the frequency of the x-ray photon.
We know that, f = c/λ ......(2)
Here λ is wavelength of x-ray photon.
Rearrange equation (1) with the help of equation (1) in terms of λ .
Substitute 6.6 x 10⁻³⁴ m² kg s⁻¹ for h, 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg for , 3 x 10⁸ m/s for c, 0.500 x 10⁻⁹ m for λ and 134° for θ in the above equation.
= 22.90°
