The acceleration of the car will be needed in order to calculate the time. It is important to consider that the final speed is equal to zero:

v^2 = v_0^2 + 2ad\ \to\ a = \frac{-v_0^2}{2d} = -\frac{21.8^2\ m^2/s^2}{2\cdot 99\ m} = -2.4\frac{m}{s^2}

We can clear time in the speed equation:

v = v_0 + at\ \to\ t = \frac{-v_0}{a} = \frac{-21.8\ m/s}{-2.4\ m/s^2} = \bf 9.08\ s

If you find some mistake in my English, please tell me know.

The de broglie wavelength of an electron with a velocity of 6.00 × 106 m/s is ________ m. The mass of the electron is 9.11 × 10-
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer: 1.212(10)^{-10} m

Explanation:

The de Broglie wavelength \lambda is given by the following formula:

\lambda=\frac{h}{p} (1)

Where:

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

p is the momentum of the atom, which is given by:

p=m_{e}v (2)

Where:

m_{e}=9.11(10)^{-28}g=9.11(10)^{-31}kg is the mass of the electron

v=6(10)^{6}m/s is the velocity of the electron

This means equation (2) can be written as:

p=(9.11(10)^{-31}kg)(6(10)^{6}m/s) (3)

Substituting (3) in (1):

\lambda=\frac{6.626(10)^{-34}\frac{m^{2}kg}{s}}{(9.11(10)^{-31}kg)(6(10)^{6}m/s)} (4)

Now, we only have to find \lambda:

\lambda=1.2122(10)^{-10} m>>> This is the de Broglie wavelength of the electron

4. Johnny exerts a 3.55 N rightward force on a 0.200-kg box to accelerate it across a low-friction track. If the total resistanc
Anon25 [30]

a) 15.2 m/s^2

b) 1.96 N

c) 1.96 N

Explanation:

a)

To find the box's acceleration, we have to find first the net force acting on the box in the horizontal direction.

We have:

- The forward force of 3.55 N

- The backward, resistive force of 0.52 N

So, the net force forward is

\sum F=3.55-0.52=3.03 N

Now we can find the acceleration by using Newton's second law of motion, which states that:

\sum F=ma

where

m = 0.200 kg is the mass of the box

a is its acceleration

And solving for a, we find the acceleration:

a=\frac{\sum F}{m}=\frac{3.03}{0.200}=15.2 m/s^2

b)

The gravitational force on an object is the force with which the object is pulled towards the ground by the Earth.

It is given by

W=mg

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the gravitational field strength

In this problem we have

m = 0.200 kg is the mass of the box

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the gravitational field strength

So, the gravitational force on the box is

W=(0.200)(9.8)=1.96 N

c)

The normal force is the reaction force exerted by the floor on the box, in the upward direction.

In order to find the magnitude of this force, we apply Newton's second law of motion along the vertical direction.

We have two forces in this direction:

- The gravitational force, W, downward

- The normal force, N, upward

So the net force is

\sum F=N-W

According to Newton's second law,

\sum F=ma

However, the box is at rest in the vertical direction, so the vertical acceleration is zero:

a=0

This means that the net force is zero:

\sum F=0

And so, we can find the normal force:

N-W=0\\N=W=1.96 N

What would happen if the difference between the earth and moon decreased?
Natali5045456 [20]
Now, moving the Moon closer to the Earth will increase the gravitational exertion of the satellite onto our planet. If the satellite were slightly closer, the tidal bulge would grow. Low tideswould be lower and high tideswould be higher and any low lying coastline would be flooded.
