Answer:

The initial velocity of the second stone is 34.3 m/s

Explanation:

The distance height covered by the second stone will be

75m - 15m = 60 m

Since the two stones hit the ground at the same time.

Using third equation of motion, which state that;

V^2 = U^2 - 2gH

Where

U = Initial velocity

V = final velocity

H = 60 m

g = 9.81 m/s^2

As the stone reaching the ground, that is, coming to rest, V = 0. Therefore,

Substitute all the parameters into the equation

0 = U^2 - 2 × 9.81 × 60

U^2 = 1177.2

U = 34.3 m/s

The initial velocity of the second stone is 34.3 m/s

A bowling ball has a mass of 6 kilograms. A person lifts the bowling ball 2 meters above the ground, using a force of about 60
Luba_88 [7]

The amount of work done by the person is equal to 120 Joules.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

  • Force = 34 Newton.
  • Displacement = 15 meters.
  • Mass = 6 kilograms.

To calculate the amount of work done by the person at a total height of 2 meters:

<h3>How to calculate work done.</h3>

In Science, work done is calculated by multiplying force and the displacement experienced by an object.

Mathematically, work done is given by the formula:

Work\;done = force \times displacement

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

Work\;done = 60 \times 2

Work done = 120 Joules.

The voltage across the diode indicates the energy given to charge carriers (electrons and holes, but more about that later in th
Elis [28]

Answer:

the charge carriers have an energy 2.8 10⁻¹⁹ J

Explanation:

The energy in a diode is conserved so the energy supplied must be equal to the energy emitted in the form of photons.

The energy of a photon is given by the Planck expression

             E = h f

the speed of light, wavelength and frequency are related

             c = λ f

we substitute

             E = \frac{h \ c}{\lambda}

a red photon has a wavelength of lam = 700 nm = 700 10⁻⁹ m

we calculate the energy

              E = 6.626 10⁻³⁴  3 10⁸/700 10⁻⁹

              E = 2.8397 10⁻¹⁹J

therefore the charge carriers have an energy 2.8 10⁻¹⁹ J,
