The short answer to how the aurora happens is that energetic electrically charged particles (mostly electrons) accelerate along the magnetic field lines into the upper atmosphere, where they collide with gas atoms, causing the atoms to give off light.
Answer: E = 941738.537J
Explanation:
to begin,
given that the mass = 2320 pound = 1052.334 kg
Δh = 110 ft = 33.528 m
given that distance (d) = 1283 ft = 391.058 m
also the speed (v) is 65 mph = 29.058 m/s
force (F) = 87 pounds = 386.995 N
from our knowledge in work energy theory;
E = Fd + 1/2mv² + mgh
E = (386.995 × 391.058) + (1/2×1052.334×29.058²) + (1052.334×9.81×33.528)
E = 151337.491 + 444278.2 + 346122.84
E = 941738.537J
i hope this helps, cheers.
Answer:
a) v = 2,9992 10⁸ m / s
, b) Eo = 375 V / m
, B = 1.25 10⁻⁶ T,
c) λ = 3,157 10⁻⁷ m, f = 9.50 10¹⁴ Hz
, T = 1.05 10⁻¹⁵ s
, UV
Explanation:
In this problem they give us the equation of the traveling wave
E = 375 cos [1.99 10⁷ x + 5.97 10¹⁵ t]
a) what the wave velocity
all waves must meet
v = λ f
In this case, because of an electromagnetic wave, the speed must be the speed of light.
k = 2π / λ
λ = 2π / k
λ = 2π / 1.99 10⁷
λ = 3,157 10⁻⁷ m
w = 2π f
f = w / 2 π
f = 5.97 10¹⁵ / 2π
f = 9.50 10¹⁴ Hz
the wave speed is
v = 3,157 10⁻⁷ 9.50 10¹⁴
v = 2,9992 10⁸ m / s
b) The electric field is
Eo = 375 V / m
to find the magnetic field we use
E / B = c
B = E / c
B = 375 / 2,9992 10⁸
B = 1.25 10⁻⁶ T
c) The period is
T = 1 / f
T = 1 / 9.50 10¹⁴
T = 1.05 10⁻¹⁵ s
the wavelength value is
λ = 3,157 10-7 m (109 nm / 1m) = 315.7 nm
this wavelength corresponds to the ultraviolet
Answer:
4.0 m/s
Explanation:
The motion of the diver is the motion of a projectile: so we need to find the horizontal and the vertical component of the initial velocity.
Let's consider the horizontal motion first. This motion occurs with constant speed, so the distance covered in a time t is

where here we have
d = 3.0 m is the horizontal distance covered
vx is the horizontal velocity
t = 1.3 s is the duration of the fall
Solving for vx,

Now let's consider the vertical motion: this is an accelerated motion with constant acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground. The vertical position at time t is given by

where
h = 4.0 m is the initial height
vy is the initial vertical velocity
We know that at t = 1.3 s, the vertical position is zero: y = 0. Substituting these numbers, we can find vy

So now we can find the magnitude of the initial velocity:

Density =mass/Volume
0.8=mass/60
Mass=0.8*60
Mass=48g
