Answer:

Newton's Third law of motion: "Every action has an equal and opposite reaction."

Explanation:

An example of Newton's third law is when a rocket is launched, the boosters apply force on the ground and the ground pushes back, which makes the rocket take off.

Answer:

Newton's third law is: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Explanation:

The statement means that in every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects. The size of the forces on the first object equals the size of the force on the second object.

Two tugboats pull a disabled supertanker. Each tug exerts a constant force of 1.8×106N , one an angle 11degrees west of north an
sp2606 [1]

Answer: 2,9 ×10¹⁰J.

Explanation:

1. The <em><u>work </u></em>is a measure of energy and is calculated as the product of the displacement times the parallel force to such displacement.

That means that the only components of the force that contribute to work are those that result parallel to the displacement.

2. Since it is given that the <em>two tugboats "pull the tanker a distance 0.83km toward the north"</em>, that is the displacement, and you have to calculate the net force toward the north.

3. <u>Tugboat #1</u>.

a) Force magnitude: F₁ = 1.8×10⁶N

b) Angle: α = 11° West of North

c) North component of the force F₁: Fy₁ = F₁cos(α) =  1.8×10⁶N  × cos(11°) = 1.77×10⁶N

4. <u>Tugboat #2</u>:

a) Force magnitude: F₂ = 1.8×10⁶N

b) Angle:  = 11° East of North

c) North component of the force F₂: Fy₂ = F₂cos(β) =  1.8×10⁶N  × cos(11°) = 1.77×10⁶N =

5. <u>Total net force, Fn</u>:

Fn = Fy₁ + Fy₂ = 1.77×10⁶N + 1.77×10⁶N = 3.54×10⁶N

6. <u>Work, W</u>:

Displacement, d = 0.83 km = 8,300 m

W = Fn×d = 3.54×10⁶N×8,300m = 29,000 ×10⁶J = 2,9 ×10¹⁰J

The answer is rounded to two significant figures because both data, Force and displacement, have two significant figures.

A 20 KeV electron emits two bremsstrahlung photons as it is being brought to rest in two successive decelerations. The wavelengt
Degger [83]

Answer:

λ₁ = 87.5 10⁻¹² m ,  λ₂ =  2.175 10⁻¹⁰ m,    E₂ = 5.8 10³ eV

Explanation:

In this case you can use the law of conservation of energy, all the energy of the electron is converted into energized emitted photons

Let's reduce to the SI system

          E₀ = 20 10³ eV (1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J / 1eV) = 3.2 10⁻¹⁵ J

          Δλ = 1.30 A = 0.13 nm = 0.13 10⁻⁹ m

          Ef = E₁ + E₂

         E₀ = Ef

         E₀ = E₁ + E₂

The energy can be found with the Planck equation

          E = h f

          c = λ f

          f = c / λ

          E = hc / λ

They indicate that the wavelength of the second photon is

 

           λ₂ =  λ₁ +0.130 10⁻⁹

We replace

           E₀ = hv / λ₁ + hc / ( λ₁ + 0.130 10⁺⁹)

           E₀ / hv = 1 / λ₁ + 1 / ( λ₁ + 0.13 10⁻⁹)

          3.2 10⁻¹⁵ / (6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3 10⁸) = ( λ₁ + 0.13 10⁻⁹ +  λ₁) /  λ₁ ( λ₁ + 0.13 10⁻⁹)

          1.6 10¹⁰ ( λ₁² +0.13 10⁻⁹  λ₁) = 2  λ₁ + 0.13 10⁻⁹

           λ₁² + 0.13 10⁻⁹  λ₁ = 1.25 10⁻¹⁰  λ₁ + 8.125 10⁻²¹

            λ₁² + 0.005 10⁻⁹  λ₁ = 8.125 10⁻²¹

            λ₁² + 5 10⁻¹²  λ₁ - 8.125 10⁻²¹ = 0

Let's solve the second degree equation

            λ₁ = [-5 10⁻¹² ±√((5 10⁻¹²)² + 4 8.125 10⁻²¹)] / 2

    λ₁ = [-5 10⁻¹² ±√(25 10⁻²⁴ +32.5 10⁻²¹)] / 2 = [-5 10⁻¹² ±√ (32525 10⁻²⁴)] / 2

             λ₁ = [-5 10⁻¹² ± 180 10⁻¹²] / 2

            λ₁ = 87.5 10⁻¹² m

             λ₂ = -92.5 10⁻¹² m

We take the positive wavelength

The wavelength of the photons is

            λ₁ = 87.5 10⁻¹² m

            λ₂ =  λ₁ + 0.13 10⁻⁹

             λ₂ = 87.5 10⁻¹² + 0.13 10⁻⁹

             λ₂ = 0.2175 10⁻⁹ m = 2.175 10⁻¹⁰ m

The energy after the first deceleration is

            E₂ = E₀ –E₁

            E₂ = E₀ –hc / λ₁

            E₂ = 3.2 10⁻¹⁵ - 6.63 10⁺³⁴ 3 10⁸ / 87.5 10⁻¹²

            E₂ = 3.2 10⁻¹⁵ - 2.27 10⁻¹⁵

             E₂ = 0.93 10⁻¹⁵ J

             E₂ = 0.93 10⁻¹⁵ J (1 eV / 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J)

             E₂ = 5.8 10³ eV
