Answer:Work is a measurement of energy.
Power is a measurement of energy per time.
So, power measures how fast work is done.
If we raise 1kg up to a height of 1 meter it takes a certain amount of work. It doesn't matter if it takes us 1 second or 1 hour to raise it. It takes more power, energy per second, to raise it in 1 second than to raise it in one hour.
An engines power rating is in horsepower. A higher horsepower car engine will get a certain car up a hill more quickly than if it had a lower horsepower engine. Even though both engines did the same amount of work in getting the car up the hill
Answer:
λ = 5.656 x 10⁻⁷ m = 565.6 nm
Explanation:
Using the formula of fringe spacing from the Young's Double Slit experiment, which is given as follows:
where,
λ = wavelength = ?
Δx = fringe spacing = 1.6 cm = 0.016 m
L = Distance between slits and screen = 4.95 m
d = slit separation = 0.175 mm = 0.000175 m
Therefore,
<u>λ = 5.656 x 10⁻⁷ m = 565.6 nm</u>
Answer:
An object has potential energy (stored energy) when it is not in motion. Once a force has been applied or it begins to move the potential energy changes to kinetic energy (energy of motion).
EXAMPLE: A rock sitting on the edge of a cliff. If the rock falls, the potential energy will be converted to kinetic energy, as the rock will be moving. A stretched elastic string in a longbow.
Answer:
a) p = 95.66 cm, b) p = 93.13 cm
Explanation:
For this problem we use the constructor equation
where f is the focal length, p and q are the distances to the object and the image, respectively
the power of the lens is
P = 1 / f
f = 1 / P
f = 1 / 2.25
f = 0.4444 m
the distance to the object is
the distance to the image is
q = 85 -2
q = 83 cm
we must have all the magnitudes in the same units
f = 0.4444 m = 44.44 cm
we calculate
1 / p = 0.010454
p = 95.66 cm
b) if they were contact lenses
q = 85 cm
1 / p = 0.107375
p = 93.13 cm
