Answer:5.35N

Explanation:

Force is defined as the product of mass of an object and its acceleration.

Acceleration is the change in velocity of an object with respect to time.

Acceleration = velocity/ time = 6.5/0.17 = 38.2m/s²

since F = ma and mass is 140g

140g to kg will be 140/1000 = 0.14kg

F = 0.14× 38.2

F = 5.35N

magnitude of the average force is 5.35N

In the context of energy transfers with hot and cold reservoirs, the sign convention is that _______________.
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

B. QC > 0; QH < 0

Explanation:

Given that there are two reservoir of energy.

Sign convention for heat and work :

1.If the heat is adding to the system then it is taken as positive and if heat is going out from the system then it is taken as negative.

2. If the work is done on the system then it is taken as negative and if the work is done by the system then it is taken as positive.

From hot reservoir heat is going out that is why it is taken as negative

Q_H

From cold reservoir heat is coming inside the reservoir that is why it is taken as positive

Q_C>0

That is why the answer will be

Q_H ,Q_C>0

Light of wavelength 550 nm falls on a slit that is 3.50 x 10^-3 mm wide. How far from the central . maximum will the first diffr
myrzilka [38]
Λ= 550 * 10^{-9}\] m.&#10;&#10;D = 3.50*10^-6 m.
d = 10 m. &#10;&#10;m = 1&#10;&#10;2x = ?

Then you need to find x when n=1
or 
sinθ=λ/w=524x10^-9/0.0033=1.59x10^-4
≈θ for θ<<1 , so θ=1.59x10^-4 radians

Then you can find rhe distance of<span> bright fringe from the center:</span>d= θD=1.59x10^-4x10m ≈ 1.6 mm
