Answer:

No

Explanation:

The reason why no current is produced are basically that, the wavelengths of light in the Balmer transition are reflected, not absorbed in solar panels, hence no current is produced.

The Balmer series consists of lines in the visible spectrum. It corresponds to emission of a photon of light when electrons descend from higher energy levels to the n=2 level in the hydrogen spectrum. The various wavelengths in the Balmer series can be separated by a prism since they are all in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum.

In solar panels, light corresponding to the wavelengths in the Balmer series is merely reflected by the panel and not absorbed. Since light is not absorbed, no current can be produced when the panel is irradiated with light corresponding to the wavelengths in the Balmer series.

The largest watermelon ever grown had a mass of 118 kg. Suppose this watermelon were exhibited on a platform 5.00 m above the gr
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer: height = 3.98m

Explanation: by placing the watermelon at a height above the ground, it has a potential energy of the formulae

p = mgh

p = potential energy = 4.61kJ = 4610J

m = mass of watermelon = 118 kg

g = acceleration due gravity = 9.8 m/s²

4610 = 118 * 9.8 * h

h = 4610/ 118 * 9.8

h = 4610/ 1156.4

h = 3.98m

Car A hits car B (initially at rest and of equal mass) from behind while going 15 m/s Immediately after the collision, car B mov
Mamont248 [21]

Given :

Initial speed of car A is 15 m/s and initial speed of car B is zero.

Final speed of car A is zero and final speed of car B is 10 m/s.

To Find :

What fraction of the initial kinetic energy is lost in the collision.

Solution :

Initial kinetic energy is :

K.E_i = \dfrac{15^2m}{2} + 0\\\\K.E_i = \dfrac{225 m}{2}

Final kinetic energy is :

K.E_f = \dfrac{10^2m}{2} + 0\\\\K.E_f = \dfrac{100m}{2}

Now, fraction of initial kinetic energy loss is :

Loss = \dfrac{\dfrac{225m}{2}-\dfrac{100m}{2}}{\dfrac{100m}{2}}\\\\Loss = \dfrac{125}{100}\\\\Loss = 1.25

Therefore, fraction of initial kinetic energy loss in the collision is 1.25 .

2.) The lob in tennis is an effective tactic when your opponent is near the net. It consists of lofting the ball over his/her he
Ratling [72]

Answer:

The minimum average speed the opponent must move so that he is in position to hit the ball is approximately 5.79 m/s

Explanation:

The given parameters of the ball are;

The initial speed of the ball = 15 m/s

The direction in which the ball is launched = 50° above the horizontal

The location of the other tennis player when the ball is launched = 10 m from the ball

The time at which the other tennis player begins to run = 0.3 seconds after the ball is launched

The height at which the ball is hit back = 2.1 m above the height from which the ball is launched

The vertical position, 'y', at time, 't', of a projectile motion is given as follows;

y = (u·sinθ)·t - 1/2·g·t²

When y = 2.1 m, we have;

2.1 = (15·sin(50°))·t - 1/2·9.8·t²

∴ 4.9·t² - (15·sin(50°))·t + 2.1 = 0

Solving with the aid of a graphing calculator function, we get;

t = 0.199776187257 s or t = 2.14525782198 s

Therefore, the ball is at 2.1 m above the start point on the other side of the court at t ≈ 2.145 seconds

The horizontal distance, 'x', the ball travels at t ≈ 2.145 seconds is given as follows;

x = u × cos(50°) × t = 15 × cos(50°) × 2.145 ≈ 20.682 m

The horizontal distance the ball travels at t ≈ 2.145 seconds, x ≈ 20.682 m

Therefore, we have;

The time the other player has to reach the ball, t₂ =2.145 s - 0.3 s ≈ 1.845 s

The distance the other player has to run, d = 20.682 m - 10 m = 10.682 m

The minimum average speed the other player has to move with, v_s = d/t₂

∴ v_s = 10.682 m/(1.845 s) ≈ 5.78970189702 m/s ≈ 5.79 m/s

The minimum average speed the opponent must move so that he is in position to hit the ball, v_s ≈ 5.79 m/s.
