Allushta [10]2 years ago

Answer:

143

Explanation:

Using one of the 3 fundamental equations in physics, y=vo*t+1/2gt^2, we can use this equation to find the total distance that was traveled.

Acceleration due to gravity is always 9.8m/s^2 and time is 5.4s, we also have no initial velocity.

Given this, we can plug in the known variables.

y=0t+1/2*9.8*5^2

simplify,

y=4.9*5.4^2

y=4.9*29.16

y=142.884m which we can round up to 143 meters

Final Answer: 143 meters

To regulate the intensity of light reaching our retinas, our pupils1 change diameter anywhere from 2 mm in bright light to 8 1 T
Ronch [10]

Correct question is;

To regulate the intensity of light reaching our retinas, our pupils1 change diameter anywhere from 2 mm in bright light to 8 mm in dim light. Find the angular resolution of the eye for 550 nm wavelength light at those extremes. In which light can you see more sharply, dim or bright?

Answer:

We'll see more sharply in dim light

Explanation:

If we consider diffraction through a circular aperture, then angular resolution is given by;

θ = 1.22λ/D

where:

θ is the angular resolution (radians) λ is the wavelength of light

D is the diameter of the lens' aperture.

Thus,

at diameter = 2mm = 2 x 10^(-3) m = 2 x 10^(6) nm

θ = (1.22 * 550)/(2 x 10^(6))

θ = 335.5 x 10^(-6) radians

Now, we need to convert this to arc seconds.

Thus;

1 arc second = 4.85 x 10^(-6) radians

So,θ = 335.5 x 10^(-6) radians = [335.5 x 10^(-6)]/[4.85 x 10^(-6)]

= 69.18 arc seconds

at diameter = 8mm = 8 x 10^(-3) m = 8 x 10^(6) nm

θ = (1.22 * 550)/(8 x 10^(6))

θ = 83.875 x 10^(-6) radians

Now, we need to convert this to arc seconds.

Thus;

1 arc second = 4.85 x 10^(-6) radians

So,θ = 83.875 x 10^(-6) radians = [83.875 x 10^(-6)]/[4.85 x 10^(-6)]

= 17.3 arc seconds

From the values of angular resolution gotten, we see that sharpness of image increases with increasing angular resolution. Thus, objects are sharper in dim light.

3. The electric field of a sinusoidal electromagnetic wave has an amplitude of 5.0 V/m. How much radiation energy passes through
True [87]

Answer:

e) 179 J

Explanation:

E_{o} = Magnitude of electric field = 5 V/m

A = Area of window = 1.5 m²

c = speed of electromagnetic wave = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

\Delta t = time interval = 1 h = 3600 sec

radiation energy is given as

U = (0.5)\epsilon _{o}E_{o}^{2}cA\Delta t

U = (0.5)(8.85\times 10^{-12})(5)^{2}(3\times 10^{8})(1.5)(3600)

U = 179 J

an object of mass m is rotating about a fixed axis with angular momentum l. its moment of inertia about this axis is i. what is
Tems11 [23]

The Kinetic energy would be 1/2IL².

<h3>What is Rotational Kinetic energy ?</h3>

  • Rotational energy also known as angular kinetic energy is defined as: The kinetic energy due to the rotation of an object and is part of its total kinetic energy. Rotational kinetic energy is directly proportional to the rotational inertia and the square of the magnitude of the angular velocity.

As we know linear Kinetic energy = 1/2mv²

 where m= mass and v= velocity.

Similarly rotational kinetic energy is given by = 1/2IL²

 where I- moment of inertia and L=angular momentum.
