Answer:

mass of one atom is measured in the unit of 1 amu

Explanation:

As we know that the mass of one atom is very small and it is of order of $10^{-27}$

here we know that 1 amu is defined as 1/12 part of mass of 1 atom of C-12 isotope

so here we will have

$1 amu = 1.66 \times 10^{-27} kg$

so here we can say that mass of one atom is measured in the unit of 1 amu

Which example best illustrates the transfer of energy between two waves?

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

Vibrations of electric and magnetic fields.

Vibration of air particles

Vibration of the water particles.

Explanation:

We have here two groups of waves. Electromagnetic wave and mechanical waves.

For the first one, electromagnetic waves, energy is transferred through vibrations of electric and magnetic fields.
For the second group, mechanical waves as a sound, for instance, energy is transferred through vibration of air particles or particles of a solid through which the sound travels. Or In water waves, energy is transferred through the vibration of the water particles.

I hope it helps you!

3. A large passenger ship required a force of 1,600,000 N to move 2000 m. How much work is done on the ship?

Dovator [93]

Answer:

3,200,000,000 J

Explanation:

Work is defined as the amount of energy transferred as an object is moved a certain distance with a certain force. Mathematically, we express this with the equation

$W=Fs$

where W is work (measured in joules), F is the force applied (in Newtons), and s is the distance, also called the <em>displacement </em>(in meters).

Here, we have F = 1,600,000 N and s = 2000 m, so our work will be

$W=1.600.000(2.000)=3.200.000.000$ J

An object of mass m is dropped from height h above a planet of mass M and radius R.Find an expression for the object's speed as

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mass of object = m

Height above planet = h

Mass of planet = M

Radius of planet = R

As we have to find out velocity, so let's apply the law of conservation of energies on initial( when the object was at height) and final( when object hit the surface points.

Initial energy = Final energy

$K_{i} + U_{i} = K_{f} + U_{f}$

$\frac{1}{2}mv_{i} ^{2} - \frac{GMm}{h+R} = \frac{1}{2}mv_{f} ^{2} - \frac{GMm}{R}\\v_{i} = 0\\v_{f} ^{2} = 2\frac{GM}{R} - 2 \frac{GM}{h+R}$

$v_{f} =\sqrt{\frac{2GMh}{R(R+h)} }$
