Answer: contain different amounts of energy

Explanation:

The energy $E$ of a photon is given by:

$E=h\nu$

Where:

$h=6.626(10)^{-34}\frac{m^{2}kg}{s}$ is the Planck constant

$\nu$ is the frequency of the light which is inversely related to the wavelength.

Now, if we have photons of different light waves, this means we have photons with different frequencies.

As the energy of the photon depends on its frequency:

Photons of different light waves <u>contain different amounts of energy.</u>

State True or False:If the positive x-axis points to the right and the x-component of velocity is negative, the cart must be mov

umka2103 [35]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Velocity is a vector, therefore it consists of two elements:

- A magnitude (also called speed), which is the ratio between the displacement of the object and the time taken

- A direction, which corresponds to the direction of motion of the object

Therefore, velocity can be describes as positive or negative, depending on the direction which has been chosen as positive. If we chose the positive x-axis as positive direction, therefore:

- if the object is moving to the right (positive x-direction), the velocity will be positive

- if the object is moving to the left (negative x-direction), the velocity will be negative

So, in this case, since the velocity of the cart is negative, it must be moving to the left.

A 25 kg circular disk has a diameter of 2.5 feet and a thickness of 2.5 cm. Find the density of the disk in kg/m3. Next, find th

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

Assume that $\rm g= 9.81\; N\cdot kg^{-1}$ ; $\rho(\text{Water}) = \rm 1000\;kg\cdot m^{-3}$ .

Density of the disk: approximately $\rm 2.19\times 10^{3}\; kg\cdot m^{-3}$ .

Weight of the disk: approximately $\rm 245\;N$ .

Buoyant force on the disk if it is submerged under water: approximately $\rm 112\; N$ .

The disk will sink when placed in water.

Explanation:

Convert the dimensions of this disk to SI units:

Diameter: $d = \rm 25\; inches = (25\times 0.3048)\; m = 0.762\;m$ .
Thickness $h = \rm 2.5\; cm = (2.5\times 0.01)\; m = 0.025\;m$ .

The radius of a circle is 1/2 its diameter:

$\displaystyle r = \rm \frac{1}{2}\times 0.762\;m = 0.381\; m$ .

Volume of this disk:

$V(\text{disk}) = \pi\cdot r^{2}\cdot h = \pi\times 0.381^{2}\times 0.025 \approx 0.0114009\; m^{3}$ .

Density of this disk:

$\displaystyle \rho(\text{disk}) = \frac{m}{V} = \rm \frac{25\; kg}{0.0114009\; m^{3}} = 2.19\times 10^{3}\;kg\cdot m^{-3}$ .

$\rho(\text{disk}) >\rho(\text{water})$ indicates that the disk will sink when placed in water.

Weight of the object:

$W(\text{disk}) = m\cdot g = \rm 25\times 9.81 = 245.25\; N$ .

The buoyant force on an object in water is equal to the weight of water that this object displaces. When this disk is submerged under water, it will displace approximately $\rm 0.0114009\; m^{3}$ of water. The buoyant force on the disk will be:

$\begin{aligned}F(\text{buoyant force}) &= W(\text{Water Displaced}) \\& = \rho\cdot V(\text{Water Displaced})\cdot g\\ & = \rm 1\times 10^{3}\; kg\cdot m^{-3}\times 0.0114009\; m^{3}\times 9.81\; N\cdot kg^{-1}\\ &\approx \rm 112\; N\end{aligned}$ .

The size of this disk's weight is greater than the size of the buoyant force on it when submerged under water. As a result, the disk will sink when placed in water.
