I’m pretty sure it is caused by the heat of the sun warming it up back into its original state of tar

A rowboat passenger uses an oar to push the boat off the dock by exerting a force of 40N for 3.0s. What impulse acts on the boat

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

120 Ns

Explanation:

The impulse exerted on an object is given by:

$I=Ft$

where

F is the force applied

t is the time taken

In this problem, we have:

F = 40 N

t = 3.0 s

So, the impulse acting on the boat is

$I=Ft=(40 N)(3.0 s)=120 Ns$

The Franck-Hertz experiment involved shooting electrons into a low-density gas of mercury atoms and observing discrete amounts o

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

the final kinetic energy is 0.9eV

Explanation:

To find the kinetic energy of the electron just after the collision with hydrogen atoms you take into account that the energy of the electron in the hydrogen atoms are given by the expression:

$E_n=\frac{-13.6eV}{n^2}$

you can assume that the shot electron excites the electron of the hydrogen atom to the first excited state, that is

$E_{n_2-n_1}=-13.6eV[\frac{1}{n_2^2}-\frac{1}{n_1^2}]\\\\E_{2-1}=-13.6eV[\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{1}]=-10.2eV$

-10.2eV is the energy that the shot electron losses in the excitation of the electron of the hydrogen atom. Hence, the final kinetic energy of the shot electron after it has given -10.2eV of its energy is:

$E_{k}=11.1eV-10.2eV=0.9eV$
