What happens to a theory as new evidence is found?

New evidence may support the theory -> then nothing

New evidence conflicts with the theory => rework theory / create a new one

A merry-go-round is spinning at a rate of 4.04.0 revolutions per minute. Cora is sitting 0.50.5 m from the center of the merry-g

dsp73

Answer:

angular speed of both the children will be same

Explanation:

Rate of revolution of the merry go round is given as

f = 4.04 rev/min

so here we have

$f = \frac{4.04}{60} =0.067 rev/s$

here we know that angular frequency is given as

$\omega = 2\pi f$

$\omega = 2\pi(0.067)$

$\omega = 0.42 rad/s$

now this is the angular speed of the disc and this speed will remain same for all points lying on the disc

Angular speed do not depends on the distance from the center but it will be same for all positions of the disc

The maximum wavelength For photoelectric emissions in tungsten is 230 nm. What wavelength of light must be use in order for elec

notka56 [123]

Answer:

λ = 1.8 x 10⁻⁷ m = 180 nm

Explanation:

First we find the work function of tungsten by using the following formula:

∅ = hc/λmax

where,

∅ = work function = ?

h = Plank's Constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

λmax = maximum wavelength for photoelectric emission = 230 nm

λmax = 2.3 x 10⁻⁷ m

Therefore,

∅ = (6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(2.3 x 10⁻⁷ m)

∅ = 8.64 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Now we convert Kinetic Energy of electron into Joules:

K.E = (1.5 eV)(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J/1 eV)

K.E = 2.4 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Now, we use Einstein's Photoelectric Equation:

Energy of Photon = ∅ + K.E

Therefore,

Energy of Photon = 8.64 x 10⁻¹⁹ J + 2.4 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Energy of Photon = 11.04 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

but,

Energy of Photon = hc/λ

where,

λ = wavelength of light = ?

Therefore,

11.04 x 10⁻¹⁹ J = (6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)/λ

λ = (6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s)(3 x 10⁸ m/s)/(11.04 x 10⁻¹⁹ J)

PLEASE HELP! 2ND TIME I ASKED THIS!!!

The train is moving at 50 m/s and Emma is walking down the aisle with 1 m/s speed in the same direction of train. The relative velocity of Emma with respect to other passengers pf the train would be 1 m/s. This is because, the train is not moving relative to them and only emma is moving at 1 m/s. If a person observes from outside, Emma would have (50 +1) m/s = 51 m/s velocity.

relative velocity when two objects are moving in same direction as oberved from outside observer:

$v_{ab}=v_a+v_b$

relative velocity when two objects are moving in the opposite directionas oberved from outside observer:

$v_{ab}=v_a-v_b$
