Answer:

k = 138440 N/m

Explanation:

given,

Mass of the car = 1200 Kg

speed of the car = 85 km/h

= 85 x 0.278 = 23.63 m/s

KE of the car

$KE = \dfrac{1}{2} mv^2$

Using Spring Energy Formula

$KE_{spring}=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2$

Using conservation of energy

$\dfrac{1}{2} mv^2=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2$

$k = \dfrac{mv^2}{x^2}$

$k = \dfrac{1200\times 23.63^2}{2.2^2}$

k = 138440 N/m

Spring stiffness constant of the spring is equal to k = 138440 N/m

G a person of mass 100 kg is riding an elevator which was initially moving up with a velocity of 3 m/s. over a distance of 4 m t

E=mc² where c is speed of the light
3 m/s more andmore less than speed of the light. So mass of the person still 100 kg

In the two-slit experiment, monochromatic light of frequency 5.00 × 1014 Hz passes through a pair of slits separated by 2.20 × 1

asambeis [7]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Frequency of monochromatic light, $f=5\times 10^{14}\ Hz$

Separation between slits, $d=2.2\times 10^{-5}\ m$

(a) The condition for maxima is given by :

$d\ sin\theta=n\lambda$

For third maxima,

$\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{n\lambda}{d})$

$\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{n\lambda}{d})$

$\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{nc}{fd})$

$\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{3\times 3\times 10^8\ m/s}{5\times 10^{14}\ Hz\times 2.2\times 10^{-5}\ m})$

$\theta=4.69^{\circ}$

(b) For second dark fringe, n = 2

$d\ sin\theta=(n+1/2)\lambda$

$\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{5\lambda}{2d})$

$\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{5c}{2df})$

$\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{5\times 3\times 10^8}{2\times 2.2\times 10^{-5}\times 5\times 10^{14}})$

$\theta=3.90^{\circ}$

Hence, this is the required solution.

The electric force between two charges A. increases with distance between the charges B. increases if either one of charges gets

beks73 [17]

Answer:

Option (A) , (b) and (d) are correct option

Explanation:

According to Coulomb's law electric force between two charges is given by

$F=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon _0}\frac{q_1q_2}{r^2}$

From the relation we can say that force is directly proportional to magnitude of charges and inversely proportional to distance between them '

So if we increase the distance then force will decrease

Increase if any of the charge get larger

If force is attractive then both the charge will be of different sign and is force is repulsive then both the charges of same sign

From above conclusion we can say that (a), (b) and (d) are correct option

Which is most likely the length of a student’s textbook?

UkoKoshka [18]

For this case, what we must do is to rewrite these measurements in the same unit in order to compare them.

By writing the measurements in meters we have:

$30 mm = (30) * (\frac{1}{1000}) = 0.030 m$

$30 cm = (30) * (\frac{1}{100}) = 0.30 m$

$30 dm = (30) * (\frac{1}{10}) = 3 m\\30 Hm = (30) * (100) = 3000 m$

Therefore, physically the correct measure is:

$0.30 m = 30 cm$

Answer:

the length of a student's textbook most likely is:

30 centimeters
