I believe it would be weight. mass never changes.

Determine the speed, wavelength, and frequency of light from a helium-neon laser as it travels through polystyrene. The waveleng

klemol [59]

Answer:

Speed:

$2.01x10^{8}m/s$

Wavelength:

$4.24x10^{-7}m$

Frequency:

$4.74x10^{14}Hz$

Explanation:

The speed of the laser as it travels through polystyrene can be determine by means of the equation of the refraction index:

$n = \frac{c}{v}$ (1)

Where c is the speed of light and v is the speed of the laser in the medium.

Therefore, v will be isolated from equation 1

$v = \frac{c}{n}$

$v = \frac{3x10^{8}m/s}{1.490}$

$v = 2.01x10^{8}m/s$

Hence, the speed of the laser has a value of $2.01x10^{8}m/s$

Frenquency:

Since, wavelength is the only one who depends on the media. Therefore the frequency in both medium will be the same.

To determine the frequency it can be used the following equation

$c = \nu \cdot \lambda$ (2)

Where c is the speed of light, $\nu$ is the frequency and $\lambda$ is the wavelength

Then, $\nu$ wil be isolated from equation 2.

$\nu = \frac{c}{\lambda}$ (3)

Before using equation 3 it is necessary to express $\lamba$ in units of meters.

$\lambda = 632.8nm . \frac{1m}{1x10^{9}nm}$ ⇒ $6.328x10^{-7}m$

$\nu = \frac{3x10^{8}m/s}{6.328x10^{-7}m}$

$\nu = 4.74x10^{14}s^{-1}$

$\nu = 4.74x10^{14}Hz$

Hence, the frequency of the laser has a value of $4.74x10^{14}Hz$

Wavelength:

To determine the wavelength it can be used:

$v = \nu \cdot \lambda$

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

Where v is the speed of the laser through the polystyrene.

$\lambda = \frac{2.01x10^{8}m/s}{4.74x10^{14}s^{-1}}$

$\lambda = 4.24x10^{-7}m$

Hence, the wavelength of the laser has a value of $4.24x10^{-7}m$

During a neighborhood baseball game in a vacant lot, a particularly wild hit sends a 0.148 kg baseball crashing through the pane

mr_godi [17]

Explanation:

Mass of baseball, m = 0.148 kg

Initial speed of the ball, u = 14.5 m/s

Final speed of the ball, v = 11.5 m/s

After crashing through the pane of a second-floor window, the ball shatters the glass as it passes through, and leaves the window at 11.5 m/s with no change of direction. So, the direction of the impulse that the glass imparts to the baseball is in opposite direction to the direction of the balls path.

The change in momentum of the ball is called impulse. It is given by :

$J=m(v-u)\\\\J=0.148\times (11.5-14.5) \\\\J=-0.444\ kg-m/s\\\\|J|=0.444\ kg-m/s$

Hence, this is the required solution.

You are standing on a sheet of ice that covers the football stadium parking lot in Buffalo; there is negligible friction between

Anni [7]

Answer:

0.074m/s

Explanation:

We need the formula for conservation of momentum in a collision, this equation is given by,

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2 = m_1v_1+m_2v_2$

Where,

$m_1$ = mass of ball

$m_2$ = mass of the person

$u_1$ = Velocity of ball before collision

$u_2$ = Velocity of the person before collision

$v_1$ = velocity of ball afer collision

$v_2$ = velocity of the person after collision

We know that after the collision, as the person as the ball have both the same velocity, then,

$v_1 = v_2$

$m_1u_1 + m_2u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v_2$

Re-arrenge to find $v_2$ ,

$v_2 = \frac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{m_1+m_2}$

Our values are,

$m_1$ = 0.425kg

$u_1$ = 12m/s

$m_2$ = 68.5kg

$u_2$ = 0m/s

Substituting,

$v_2 = \frac{(0.425)(12)+(68.5)(0)}{0.425+68.5}$

$v_2 = 0.074m/s$

<em />

<em>The speed of the person would be 0.074m/s after the collision between him/her and the ball</em>

How would doubling the mass of Earth affect the gravity we experience?

N76 [4]

The strength of the gravitational force between two objects depends on two factors, mass and distance. the force of gravity the masses exert on each other. If one of the masses is doubled, the force of gravity between the objects is doubled. increases, the force of gravity decreases.
