Answer:

20min = 20 × 60 = 1200sec.

Speed in m per sec.

V = 1000/1200

V = 0.833m per sec.

An object that completes 20 vibrations in 10 seconds has a frequency of

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

The object has frequency of 2 Hz and time period of 0.5 s.

Explanation:

Frequency is defined as number of oscillation per second ie back and forth swings done in single second.

Here it is given that the object oscillates 20 times in 10 seconds.

So f = $\frac{20}{10}$ = 2Hz

The time period is defined as time taken by the object to complete one full oscillation.

T = $\frac{1}{f}$

T= $\frac{1}{2}$ =0.5 s

Thus the object has frequency of 2 Hz and time period of 0.5 s.

What is the energy range (in joules) of photons of wavelength 410 nm to 750 nm ? Express your answers using two significant figu

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

4.9 x 10^-19 J, 2.7 x 10^-19 J

Explanation:

first wavelength, λ1 = 410 nm = 410 x 10^-9 m

Second wavelength, λ2 = 750 nm = 750 x 10^-9 m

The relation between the energy and the wavelength is given by

E = h c / λ

Where, h is the Plank's constant and c be the velocity of light.

h = 6.63 x 10^-34 Js

c = 3 x 10^8 m/s

So, energy correspond to first wavelength

E1 = (6.63 x 10^-34 x 3 x 10^8) / (410 x 10^-9) = 4.85 x 10^-19 J

E1 = 4.9 x 10^-19 J

So, energy correspond to second wavelength

E2 = (6.63 x 10^-34 x 3 x 10^8) / (750 x 10^-9) = 2.652 x 10^-19 J

E2 = 2.7 x 10^-19 J

To view an interactive solution to a problem that is similar to this one, select Interactive Solution 7.24. A 0.0129-kg bullet i

ipn [44]

Answer:

t=0.42s

Explanation:

Here you have an inelastic collision. By the conservation of the momentum you have:

$m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)v$

m1: mass of the bullet

m2: wooden block mass

v1: velocity of the bullet

v2: velocity of the wooden block

v: velocity of bullet and wooden block after the collision.

By noticing that after the collision, both objects reach the same height from where the wooden block was dropped, you can assume that v is equal to the negative of v2. In other words:

$m_1(-v_1)+m_2v_2=(m1+m2)(-v2)$

Where you assumed that the negative direction is upward. By replacing and doing v2 the subject of the formula you get:

$-(0.0129kg)(767m/s)+(1.17kg)v_2=(1.1829kg)(-v_2)\\\\v_2=4.20m/s$

Now, with this information you can use the equation for the final speed of an accelerated motion and doing t the subject of the formula. IN other words:

$v_2=v_o+gt\\\\t=\frac{v_2-v_o}{g}=\frac{4.2m/s-0m/s}{9.8m/s^2}=0.42s$

hence, the time is t=0.42 s

The average radius of Mars is 3,397 km. If Mars completes one rotation in 24.6 hours, what is the tangential speed of objects on

sammy [17]

Answer: First, we determine the circumference of the Mars by the equation below.

C = 2πr

Substituting the known values,

C = 2(π)(3,397 km) = 6794π km

To determine the tangential speed, we divide the circumference calculated above by the time it takes for Mars to complete one rotation and that is,

tangential speed = 6794π km / 24.6 hours = 867.64 km/h
