Answer: The Second Law is also known as "The Law of Force and Acceleration." This relates to the observation that an object experiences an acceleration "a" when acted upon by a force "F" whereby these two are in linear relationship F = ma (with "m" the mass of the object)

Newton's second law of motion pertains to the behavior of objects for which all existing forces are not balanced. The second law states that the acceleration of an object is dependent upon two variables - the net force acting upon the object and the mass of the object.

In a physics lab, light with a wavelength of 530 nm travels in air from a laser to a photocell in a time of 16.7 ns . When a sla

Answer:

$\lambda'=78.086\ nm$

Explanation:

Given:

wavelength of light in the air, $\lambda=530\times 10^{-9}\ m$

time taken to travel from the source to the photocell via air, $t=16.7\ s$

time taken to reach the photocell via air and glass slab, $t'=21.3\times 10^{-9}\ s$

thickness of the glass slab, $x=0.87\ m$

<u>Now we have the relation for time:</u>

$\rm time=\frac{distance}{speed}$

hence,

$t=\frac{d}{c}$

c= speed of light in air

$16.7\times 10^{-9}=\frac{d}{3\times 10^8}$

$d=16.7\times 10^{-9}\times 3\times 10^8$

$d=5.01\ m$

For the case when glass slab is inserted between the path of light:

$\frac{(d-x)}{c} +\frac{x}{v} =t'$ (since light travel with the speed c only in the air)

here:

v = speed of light in the glass

$\frac{(5.01-0.87)}{3\times 10^8} +\frac{0.87}{v} =21.3\times 10^{-9}$

$v=4.42\times 10^7\ m.s^{-1}$

Using Snell's law:

$\frac{\lambda}{\lambda'} =\frac{c}{v}$

$\frac{530}{\lambda'} =\frac{3\times 10^8}{4.42\times 10^7}$

$\lambda'=78.086\ nm$

A race car has a centripetal acceleration of 15.625 m/s2 as it goes around a curve. If the curve is a circle with radius 40 m, w

myrzilka [38]

The centripetal acceleration is given by
$a_c = \frac{v^2}{r}$
where v is the tangential speed and r the radius of the circular orbit.

For the car in this problem, $a_c = 15.625 m/s^2$ and r=40 m, so we can re-arrange the previous equation to find the velocity of the car:
$v= \sqrt{a_c r}= \sqrt{(15.625 m/s^2)(40 m)}=25 m/s$
