Which of the following is true about light?

1 answer:

7 0

Light travels in waves AND in bundles called "photons".

It's hard to imagine something that's a wave and also a bundle.
But it turns out that light behaves like both waves and bundles.

If you design an experiment to detect waves, then it responds to light.

And if you design an experiment to detect 'bundles' or particles, then
that one also responds to light.

Aneli [31]

Answer:

h=2.86m

Explanation:

In order to give a quick response to this exercise we will use the equations of conservation of kinetic and potential energy, the equation is given by,

$\Delta PE_i + \Delta KE_i = \Delta PE_f +\Delta KE_f$

There is no kinetic energy in the initial state, nor potential energy in the end,

$mgh+0=0+KE_f$

In the final kinetic energy, the energy contributed by the Inertia must be considered, as well,

$mgh = (\frac{1}{2}mv^2+\frac{1}{2}I\omega^2)$

The inertia of the bodies is given by the equation,

$I=\frac{m(R_1^2+R^2_2)}{2}$

$I=\frac{2(0.2^2+0.1^2)}{2}$

$I=0.05Kgm^2$

On the other hand the angular velocity is given by

$\omega =\frac{v}{R_2}=\frac{4}{1/5} = 2rad/s$

Replacing these values in the equation,

$(0.5)(9.8)(h) =\frac{1}{2}*0.5*4^2+\frac{1}{2}*0.05*20^2$

Solving for h,

$h=2.86m$

2. What is the resistance expected on a heater that is feed by 480V AC and the Electric Power is 4.6kW?

Korvikt [17]

The resistance expected of the heater is 50.1 ohms.

<h3>What is resistance?</h3>

Resistance can be defined as the opposition to the flow of electric current in an electric circuit. The S.I unit of resistance is Ohms (Ω).

To calculate the resistance of the heater, we use the formula below.

<h3>Formula:</h3>

R = V²/P............. Equation 1

Where:

R = Resistance of the heater
P = Power of the heater
V = Voltage supplied to the heater

From the question,

Given:

V = 480 V
P = 4.6 kW = 4600 W

Substitute these values into equation 1

R = (480²)/4600
R = 50.1 ohms.

Hence, the resistance expected of the heater is 50.1 ohms.

una bala de 20 g choca con un fango como se muestra en la figura y penetra una distancia de 6 cm antes de detenerse. calcule la

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

A 20g bullet collides with a mud as shown in the figure and penetrates a distance of 6cm before stopping. calculate the braking force f if the input speed was 80m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

A bullet of mass

M = 20g = 0.02kg

The bullet is fired into a mud initially at rest

The bullet penetrate a distance of 6cm in the mud

S = 6cm = 0.06m

The input velocity into the mud is 80m/s, this implies that, the initial velocity is 80m/s

U = 80m/s

So, the bullet stop after a distance of 6cm, so the final velocity is 0m/s

V = 0m/s

So, we need to find the braking force

Breaking force (F) is given as

F = ma

Where m is mass and 'a' is deceleration

So, we need to find the deceleration, using equation of motion

V² = U² + 2as

0² = 80² + 2 × a × 0.06

0 = 6400 + 0.12a

0.12a = -6400

a = -6400 / 0.12

a = - 53,333.33 m/s²

So, the negative sign shows that the bullet is decelerating

So, a = 53,333.33 m/s²

So, breaking force

F = ma

F = 0.02 × 53,333.33

F = 1066.67 N

The breaking force is 1066.67 N

Dado que,

Una bala de masa

M = 20 g = 0.02 kg

La bala se dispara en un lodo inicialmente en reposo

La bala penetra una distancia de 6 cm en el barro.

S = 6 cm = 0.06 m

La velocidad de entrada al lodo es de 80 m / s, esto implica que la velocidad inicial es de 80 m / s

U = 80 m / s

Entonces, la bala se detiene después de una distancia de 6 cm, por lo que la velocidad final es de 0 m / s

V = 0 m / s

Entonces, necesitamos encontrar la fuerza de frenado

La fuerza de ruptura (F) se da como

F = ma

Donde m es masa y 'a' es desaceleración

Entonces, necesitamos encontrar la desaceleración, usando la ecuación de movimiento

V² = U² + 2as

0² = 80² + 2 × a × 0.06

0 = 6400 + 0.12a

0.12a = -6400

a = -6400 / 0.12

a = - 53,333.33 m / s²

Entonces, el signo negativo muestra que la bala se está desacelerando

Entonces, a = 53,333.33 m / s²

Entonces, fuerza de ruptura

F = ma

F = 0.02 × 53,333.33

F = 1066.67 N

La fuerza de ruptura es 1066.67 N
