Answer:

There are a number of ways to reduce friction:

Rough surfaces produce more friction and smooth surfaces reduce friction. Lubrication is another way to make a surface smoother. ... Reduce the forces acting on the surfaces. Reduce the contact between the surfaces.

A photon of wavelength 3.7 nm Compton scatters from an electron at an angle of 90°. What is the modified wavelength? (Enter your
viva [34]

Answer:

3.70242 nm

Explanation:

Using Compton effect formula

Δλ = ( h / mec) ( 1 - cosθ)

where h is planck constant = 6.62607 × 10 ⁻³⁴ m²kg/s

me, mass of an electron = 9.11 × 10⁻³¹ kg

c is the speed of light = 3 × 10⁸ m/s

Δλ = 6.62607 × 10 ⁻³⁴ m²kg/s / (9.11 × 10⁻³¹ kg × 3 × 10⁸ m/s ) ( 1 - cos 90°) =   0.242 × 10 ⁻¹¹ m = 2.42 × 10⁻¹² m  = 0.00242 nm

modified wavelength = 3.7 nm + 0.00242 nm = 3.70242 nm

How do igneous rocks differ from each other.
olya-2409 [2.1K]
Although hand specimen identification is some what of an art; igneous rocks are classified using two critiria:
•Texture
•Chemical and mineral composition
Most of the time the rock name, such as basalt or granite, reflects the chemical composition. The minerals and textures are used as adjectives that modify the rock name. You might see a name like an olivine basalt or a quartz porphyry rhyolite.

To stop a car, first you require a certain reaction time to begin braking; then the car slows under the constant braking deceler
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

a.) 2.66 seconds for 79.2 km/h and 1.82 seconds for 47.8 km/h

b.)-4.13 m/s2 for 79.2 km/h and -3.63 m/s2 for 47.8 km/h

Explanation:

Now for (a)

time = velocity/distance

for velocity = 79.2 km/h and distance 0.0586 km

t = (0.0586/79.2)*3600

t = 2.66 seconds (Please note that multiplication with 3600 is to convert hours into seconds)

for velocity 47.8 km/h and distance 0.0242 km

t = (0.0242/47.8)*3600

t = 1.82 seconds

Now for (b)

2as = vf2-vi2

so,

2a(58.6) = -(79.2*1000/3600)^2 (Please note that multiplication and division with 1000 and 3600 respectively is to convert speed unit from km/h to m/s)

a = -4.13 m/s2 for 58.6 m

and

2a(24.2) = -(47.8*1000/3600)^2

a = -3.63 m/s2 for 24.2 m.

Please note that "-" sign express the deceleration.

What is the energy of the electron in a helium ion with a charge of +1 in an orbit with a value of n=4?
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

The energy of the electron in a helium ion is -5.44\times10^{-19}\ J

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge = +1

Value of n = 4

Suppose k=2.179\times10^{-18}\ J

We need to calculate the energy of the electron in a helium ion

Using formula of energy

E_{n}=-k\dfrac{z^2}{n^2}

Put the value into the formula

E_{n}=-2.179\times10^{-18}\times\dfrac{2^2}{4^2}

E_{n}=-5.44\times10^{-19}\ J

Hence, The energy of the electron in a helium ion is -5.44\times10^{-19}\ J
