Answer:

v = 60.62 km/h

Explanation:

Kinetic energy

Kinetic energy is that which is due to the movement of bodies and is calculted like this:

K = (1/2)mv² Formula (1)

Where:

K : Kinetic energy (J)

m: mass (kg)

v : speed (m/s)

Data for the truck

m = 15000 kg

v= 21 km/h = 21 *(1000m)/ (3600s)

v= 5.83 m/s

Calculation of the kinetic energy of the truck

We replace data in the formula (1)

K = (1/2)mv²

K = (1/2)(15000)(5.83)²

K = 255208.3 J

Data for the compact car

K = 255208.3 J =  255208.3 (N*m)

m = 1800 kg

Calculation of the speed  of the compact car

We replace data in the formula (1)

K = (1/2)mv²

255208.3 = (1/2)( 1800)(v)²

255208.3 = ( 900)(v)²

v² = 255208.3 / ( 900)

v= \sqrt{\frac{255208.3}{900} }

v = 16.84 m/s

1 km = 1000 m

1 h = 3600 s

v = 16.84*(3600/1000)km/h

v = 60.62 km/h

In the Hydrogen atom, the energy spacing between the is 4.07 x 101 J (Joules). When an is the frequency of the photons emitted?
agasfer [191]

Answer:

The frequency of the photon is 3.069\times10^{14}\ Hz.

Explanation:

Given that,

Energy E=4.07\times10^{-19}\ J

We need to calculate the energy

Using relation of energy

E_{4}-E_{2}=\Delta E

Where, \Delta E =  energy spacing

4h\nu-2h\nu=4.07\times10^{-19}

\nu=\dfrac{4.07\times10^{-19}}{2h}

Put the value of h into the formula

\nu=\dfrac{4.07\times10^{-19}}{2\times6.63\times10^{-34}}

\nu=3.069\times10^{14}\ Hz

Hence, The frequency of the photon is 3.069\times10^{14}\ Hz.

In which of the two situations described is more energy transferred?
Furkat [3]

Answer:

More energy is transferred in situation A

Explanation:

Each of the situations are analyzed as follows;

Situation A

The temperature of the cup of hot chocolate = 40 °C

The temperature of the interior of the freezer in which the chocolate is placed = -20 °C

We note that at 0°C, the water in the chocolate freezes

The energy transferred by the chocolate to the freezer before freezing is given approximately as follows;

E₁ = m×c₁×ΔT₁

Where;

m = The mass of the chocolate

c₁ = The specific heat capacity of water = 4.184 kJ/(kg·K)

ΔT₁ = The change in temperature from 40 °C to 0°C

Therefore, we have;

E₁ = m×4.184×(40 - 0) = 167.360·m kJ

The heat the coffee gives to turn to ice is given as follows;

E₂ = m·H_f

Where;

H_f = The latent heat of fusion = 334 kJ/kg

∴ E₂ = m × 334 kJ/kg = 334·m kJ

The heat required to cool the frozen ice to -20 °C is given as follows;

E₃ = m·c₂·ΔT₂

Where;

c₂ = The specific heat capacity of ice = 2.108 kJ/(kg·K)

Therefore, we have;

E₃ = m × 2.108 ×(0 - (-20)) = 42.16

E₃ = 42.16·m kJ/(kg·K)

The total heat transferred = (167.360 + 334 + 42.16)·m kJ/(kg·K) = 543.52·m kJ/(kg·K)

Situation B

The temperature of the cup of hot chocolate = 90 °C

The temperature of the room in which the chocolate is placed = 25 °C

The heat transferred by the hot cup of coffee, E, is given as follows;

E = m×4.184×(90 - 25) = 271.96

∴ E = 271.96 kJ/(kg·K)

Therefore, the total heat transferred in situation A is approximately twice the heat transferred in situation B and is therefore more than the heat transferred in situation B

Energy transferred in situation A = 543.52 kJ/(kg·K)

Energy transferred in situation B = 271.96 kJ/(kg·K)

Energy transferred in situation A ≈ 2 × Energy transferred in situation B

∴ Energy transferred in situation A > Energy transferred in situation B.

The electric field due to two point charges is found by: a) finding the stronger field. The net field will just be equal to the
alekssr [168]

Answer:

b)determining the electric field due to each charge and adding them together as vectors.

Explanation:

The electric Field is a vector quantity, in other words it has a magnitude and a direction. On the other hand, the electric field follows the law of superposition. The electric field produced by two elements is equal to the sum of the electric fields produced by each element when the other element is not present. in other words, the total electric field is solved determining the electric field due to each charge and adding them together as vectors.
