Answer:

Explanation:

energy emitted by  source per second  = .5 J

Eg = 1.43 eV .

Energy converted into radiation = .5 x .12 = .06 J

energy of one photon = 1.43 eV

= 1.43 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

= 2.288 x 10⁻¹⁹ J .

no of photons generated = .06 / 2.288 x 10⁻¹⁹

= 2.6223 x 10¹⁷

wavelength of photon λ = 1275 / 1.43 nm

= 891.6 nm .

momentum of photon = h / λ  ;  h is plank's constant

= 6.6 x 10⁻³⁴ / 891.6 x 10⁻⁹

= .0074 x 10⁻²⁵ J.s

Total momentum of all the photons generated

= .0074 x 10⁻²⁵  x 2.6223 x 10¹⁷

= .0194 x 10⁻⁸ Js

b ) spectral width in terms of wavelength = 30 nm

frequency width = ?

n = c / λ  , n is frequency , c is velocity of light and λ is wavelength

differentiating both sides

dn = c x dλ / λ²

given dλ = 30 nm

λ = 891.6 nm

dn = 3 x 10⁸ x 30 x 10⁻⁹ / ( 891.6  x 10⁻⁹ )²

= 11.3 x 10¹² Hz .

c )

10 nW = 10  x 10⁻⁹ W

= 10⁻⁸ W .

energy of 50 dB

50 dB = 5 B

I / I₀ = 10⁵   ;   decibel scale is logarithmic , I is energy of sound having dB = 50 and  I₀ = 10⁻¹² W /s

I = I₀ x 10⁵

= 10⁻¹² x 10⁵

= 10⁻⁷ W

= 10 x 10⁻⁸ W

power required

= 10⁻⁸ + 10 x 10⁻⁸ W

= 11  x 10⁻⁸ W.

A 500kg car skids to a stop at a traffic light, leaving behind a 18.25m skid mark as it comes to a rest. Assuming that the car i
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Coefficient of friction will be 0.587

Explanation:

We have given mass of the car m = 500 kg

Distance s = 18.25 m

Initial velocity of the car u = 14.5 m/sec

As the car finally stops so final velocity v = 0 m/sec

From second equation of motion

v^2=u^2+2as

0^2=14.5^2+2\times a\times 18.25

a=-5.76m/sec^2

We know that acceleration is given by

a=\mu g

5.76=\mu\times  9.81

\mu =0.587

So coefficient of friction will be 0.587

Now imagine a person dragging a 50 kg box along the ground with a rope, as
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

The coefficient of static friction between the box and floor is, μ = 0.061

Explanation:

Given data,

The mass of the box, m = 50 kg

The force exerted by the person, F = 50 N

The time period of motion, t = 10 s

The frictional force acting on the box, f = 30 N

The normal force on the box, η = mg

                                                     = 50 x 9.8

                                                     = 490 N

The coefficient of friction,

                            μ = f/ η

                               = 30 / 490

                               = 0.061

Hence, the coefficient of static friction between the box and floor is, μ = 0.061
