Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Each student exert a force of F=400 N

Let mass of car be m

there are 18 students who lifts the car

Total force by 18 students F=18\times 400=7200 N

therefore weight of car W=7200

mass of car m=\frac{W}{g}

m=\frac{7200}{9.8}=734.69 kg

(b)7200 N \approx 1618.624\ Pound-force

734.69 kg\approx 1619.71 Pounds

The potential-energy function u(x) is zero in the interval 0≤x≤l and has the constant value u0 everywhere outside this interval.

Look first for the relation between deBroglie wavelength (λ) and kinetic energy (K): 
K = ½mv² 
v = √(2K/m) 
λ = h/(mv) 
= h/(m√(2K/m)) 
= h/√(2Km) 

So λ is proportional to 1/√K. 
in the potential well the potential energy is zero, so completely the electron's energy is in the shape of kinetic energy: 
K = 6U₀ 

Outer the potential well the potential energy is U₀, so 
K = 5U₀ 
(because kinetic and potential energies add up to 6U₀) 

Therefore, the ratio of the de Broglie wavelength of the electron in the region x>L (outside the well) to the wavelength for 0<x<L (inside the well) is: 
1/√(5U₀) : 1/√(6U₀) 
= √6 : √5

fredd [130]

Answer:

The answer is "Including all three studies of 0s to 2s, that shift in momentum is equal".

Explanation:

Its shift in momentum doesn't really depend on the magnitude of its cars since the forces or time are similar throughout all vehicles.

Let's look at the speed of the car

F = m a\\\\a =\frac{F}{m}

We use movies and find lips

\to v = v_0 + a t\\\\\to v = v_0 + (\frac{F}{m}) t

The moment is defined by

\to p = m v

The moment change

\Delta p = m v - m v_0

Let's replace the speeds in this equation

\Delta p = m (v_0 + \frac{F}{m t}) - m v_0\\\\\Delta p = m v_0  + F t - m v_0\\\\\Delta p = F t

They see that shift is not directly proportional to the mass of cars since the force and time were the same across all cars.

The smallest detail visible with ground-based solar telescopes is about 1 arc second. How large a region (in km) does this repre
mestny [16]

Answer:

x = 727.5 km

Explanation:

With the conditions given using trigonometry, we can find the tangent

       tan θ = CO / CA

With CO the opposite leg and CE is the adjacent leg which is the distance from the Tierral to Sun

   

        D =150 10⁶ km (1000m / 1 km)

        D = 150 10⁹ m.

We must take the given angle to radians.

       1º  = 3600 arc s  

       π rad = 180º

       θ = 1 arc s (1º / 3600 s arc) (pi rad / 180º) =

       θ = 4.85 10⁻⁶ rad

That angle is extremely small, so we can approximate the tangent to the angle

     

       θ = x / D

       x = θ D

       x = 4.85 10-6  150 109

       x = 727.5 103 m

       x = 727.5 km

A 2.0-kg ball has a momentum of 25kg.m/s what is the ball's speed?
Reil [10]

We know, momentum = mass * speed

25kgm/s = 2 kg * s

s = 25/2 = 12.5 m/s
