Apply the equation. to find the magnitude, which is 1.4.

Apply the equation theta = tan–1(y/x) to find the angle: tan–1(1.0/–1.0) = –45 degrees. However, note that the angle must really be between 90 degrees and 180 degrees because the first vector component is negative and the second is positive.

Crank

Energy of gamma rays is given by equation

$E = h\nu$

here we know that

h = Planck's constant

$\nu = frequency$

now energy is given as

$E = 4.70 MeV = 4.70 \times 10^6 \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19}$

$E = 7.52 \times 10^{-13} J$

now by above equation

$E = h\nu$

$7.52 \times 10^{-13} = 6.6 \times 10^{-34} \nu$

$\nu = 1.14 \times 10^{21} Hz$

now for wavelength we can say

$\lambda = \frac{c}{\nu}$

$\lambda = \frac{3\times 10^8}{1.14 \times 10^{21}}$

$\lambda = 2.63 \times 10^{-13} m$

Suppose that you are standing on a train accelerating at 0.20g (where g is the acceleration due to gravity). What minimum coeffi

prisoha [69]

Answer:

0.2

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The acceleration of the train, a = 0.2·g

The mass of the person standing on the train = m

Let μ represent the coefficient of static friction, we have;

The force acting on the person, F = m × a = m × 0.2·g

The force of friction acting between the feet and the floor, $F_f$ = m·g·μ

For the person not to slide we have;

The force acting on the person = The force of friction acting between the feet and the floor

F = $F_f$

∴ m × 0.2·g = m·g·μ

From which we get;

0.2 = μ

The coefficient of static friction that must exist between the feet and the floor if the person is not to slide, μ = 0.2.

A physics student tests the theory of projectile motion by leaping off a 225 meter tall building. She runs off the building hori

tamaranim1 [39]

In this item, we are given with the x-component of the velocity. The y-component is equal to 0 m/s. The time it takes for it to reach the volume can be related through the equation,

d = V₀t + 0.5gt²

Substituting the known values,

225 = (0 m/s)(t) + (0.5)(9.8)(t²)

Simplifying,

t = 6.776 s

To determine the distance of the student from the edge of the building, we multiply the x-component by the calculated time.

range = (12.5 m/s)(6.776 s)

range = 84.7 m

<em>Answer: 84.7 m</em>

Which of the following has the most thermal energy?

Lelechka [254]

Answer:
2. A 1 litre mug of hot chocolate at 75 degrees.

Explanation:
Thermal energy is directly proportional to mass, so as the mass increases, the thermal energy of the substance increases as well.
