Answer:

a) Final velocity of the dragster at the end of 1.8 s = 75.6 m/s

b) Final velocity of the dragster at the end of 3.6 s = 151.2 m/s

c) The displacement of the dragster at the end of 1.8 s = 68.04 m

d) The displacement of the dragster at the end of 3.6 s = 272.16 m

Explanation:

a) We have equation of motion v = u + at

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Acceleration , a = 42 m/s²

Time = 1.8 s

Substituting

v = u + at

v = 0 + 42 x 1.8 = 75.6 m/s

Final velocity of the dragster at the end of 1.8 s = 75.6 m/s

b) We have equation of motion v = u + at

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Acceleration , a = 42 m/s²

Time = 3.6 s

Substituting

v = u + at

v = 0 + 42 x 3.6 = 75.6 m/s

Final velocity of the dragster at the end of 3.6 s = 151.2 m/s

c) We have equation of motion s= ut + 0.5 at²

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Acceleration , a = 42 m/s²

Time = 1.8 s

Substituting

s= ut + 0.5 at²

s = 0 x 1.8 + 0.5 x 42 x 1.8²

s = 68.04 m

The displacement of the dragster at the end of 1.8 s = 68.04 m

d) We have equation of motion s= ut + 0.5 at²

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Acceleration , a = 42 m/s²

Time = 3.6 s

Substituting

s= ut + 0.5 at²

s = 0 x 3.6 + 0.5 x 42 x 3.6²

s = 272.16 m

The displacement of the dragster at the end of 3.6 s = 272.16 m

Consider an electron with charge −e and mass m orbiting in a circle around a hydrogen nucleus (a single proton) with charge +e.

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

$v=\sqrt{k\frac{e^2}{m_e r}}$ , $2.18\cdot 10^6 m/s$

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electromagnetic force between the electron and the proton in the nucleus is equal to the centripetal force:

$k\frac{(e)(e)}{r^2}=m_e \frac{v^2}{r}$

where

k is the Coulomb constant

e is the magnitude of the charge of the electron

e is the magnitude of the charge of the proton in the nucleus

r is the distance between the electron and the nucleus

v is the speed of the electron

$m_e$ is the mass of the electron

Solving for v, we find

$v=\sqrt{k\frac{e^2}{m_e r}}$

Inside an atom of hydrogen, the distance between the electron and the nucleus is approximately

$r=5.3\cdot 10^{-11}m$

while the electron mass is

$m_e = 9.11\cdot 10^{-31}kg$

and the charge is

$e=1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C$

Substituting into the formula, we find

$v=\sqrt{(9\cdot 10^9 m/s) \frac{(1.6\cdot 10^{-19} C)^2}{(9.11\cdot 10^{-31} kg)(5.3\cdot 10^{-11} m)}}=2.18\cdot 10^6 m/s$

The wavelength of visible light is about 5500 times longer than the wavelength of x-rays. If you represent the wavelenth of an x

Pie

Answer:

458.33 ft

Explanation:

We are given that

Wavelength of of an x- ray photon=1 in

Wavelength of of an x- ray photon== $\frac{1}{12}$ ft

1 in= $\frac{1}{12}$ feet

We have to find the length of line (in feet) drawn by you to represent the wavelength of visible light.

According to question

Wavelength of visible light= $5500\times \frac{1}{12}$ ft

Wavelength of visible light $=\frac{5500}{12}$ ft

Wavelength of visible light=458.33 ft

Hence, the 458.33 ft line must drawn by you to represent the wavelength of visible light.

You push on the top edge of a 1.8 m tall solid circular cylinder of iron which is 4.00 cm in diameter. You push with a horizonta

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

$\triangle x=3.2*10^-^5 m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Height of circular cylinder is $h= 1.8m$

Diameter of cylinder $D=4cm=>0.04m$

Horizontal Force $F=900N$

$Y = 10.0 *10^1^0 N/m^2 \\B = 9.0 * 10^1^0 N/m^2\\S = 4.0 * 10^1^0 N/m^2\\$

Generally the formula for shear modulus is mathematically represented by

$G=\frac{\tau}{\gamma}$

Where

$G=Shear modulus\\\tau= shear\ stress\\\gamma=shear strain$

$G=\frac{F/A}{\triangle x/L}$

$G=\frac{900/\pi r^2}{\triangle x/1.8}$

$4.0*10^1^0=\frac{900/\pi r^2}{\triangle x/1.8}$

$4.0*10^1^0=\frac{900}{\pi r^2} *\frac{1.8}{\triangle x}$

${\triangle x} =\frac{1620}{\pi r^2* 4.0*10^1^0}$

$\triangle x=3.2*10^-^5 m$
