The blades of a metal cutter are shorter than the blades of paper cutter scissor. Give reason​

Physics
1 answer:
Sladkaya [172]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Metal is a tougher material to cut though, so the blades must be shorter to create more pressure to break through the metal. Paper on the other hand is easier to cut through so the blades can be longer in order to cut more in each snip.

What is the value of n in the balmer series for which the wavelength is 410.2 nm.?
m_a_m_a [10]

The answer is n= 6.

What is Balmer series?

The Balmer series is the portion of the emission spectrum of hydrogen that represents electron transitions from energy levels n > 2 to n = 2. These are four lines in the visible spectrum. They are also known as the Balmer lines. The four visible Balmer lines of hydrogen appear at 410 nm, 434 nm, 486 nm and 656 nm.

For the Balmer series, the final energy level is always n=2. So, the wavelengths 653.6, 486.1, 434.0, and 410.2 nm correspond to n=3, n=4, n=5, and n=6 respectively. Since the last wavelength, 410.2 nm, corresponds to n=6, the next wavelength should logically correspond to n=7.

To solve for the wavelength, calculate the individual energies, E2 and E7, using E=-hR/(n^2). Then, calculate the energy difference between E2 (which is the final) and E7 (which is the initial). Finally, use lamba=hc/E to get the wavelength.

Why do the passengers on a high-flying airplane not appear weightless, similar to the astronauts on the space station?
sergey [27]

<span>Even in space, there is still presence of gravity. The cause of weightlessness is not how far above the earth the space shuttle is but rather how fast it is travelling. The shuttle is in free fall causing weightlessness, but it is travelling fast enough to miss the earth as it falls. Similarly, the airplane could also provide weightlessness if it went free fall as well. However, that ends as the plane hits the ground. </span>

A 38.5kg man is in an elevator accelerating downward. A normal force of 343n pushes up on him. what is his acceleration?
alexira [117]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 8.91 m/s²</h3>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m}  \\

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

a =  \frac{343}{38.5}  =  \frac{98}{11}  \\  = 8.909090...

We have the final answer as

<h3>8.91 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you

What is the current when the voltage is 18 volts and the resistance is 6 ohms?
juin [17]
Voltage = current(I) * resistance (R)
V = 18
R = 6

18 = I * 6
I = 18/6 = 3 Amps or D
