What is the reaction force for sky diving?

1 answer:

7 0

As the skydiver accelerates she gains momentum, and the air she passes through creates a resistance that pushes back up at her, increasing drag. Eventually, the force of the resisting air balances out with the force of gravity, and the skydiver stops speeding up

The minimum frequency of light needed to eject electrons from a metal is called the threshold frequency, ν0. find the minimum en

shusha [124]

The energy carried by the incident light is
$E=hf$
where h is the Planck constant and f is the frequency of the light. The threshold frequency is the frequency that corresponds to the minimum energy needed to eject the electrons from the metal, so if we substitute the threshold frequency in the formula, we get the minimum energy the light must have to eject the electrons:
$E=hf=(6.63 \cdot 10^{-34}Js)(5.64 \cdot 10^{14}s^{-1})=3.74 \cdot 10^{-19}J$

How do you convert Kg's to Newtons?

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

You don't convert kilograms to newtons. By the time you've heard of these units, you know that 'kilogram' is a unit of mass, 'newton' is a unit of force or weight, and that mass and weight are different things.

Mass and force are <u>related</u> by Newton's second law:

Force = Mass x acceleration .

From this simple formula, you can see that in order to relate a mass to a force, you need to know an acceleration. And if the acceleration changes, then the relationship between the force and the mass also changes. So there's no direct conversion.

ON EARTH ONLY, one kilogram of mass <em>weighs</em> 9.8 newtons. The acceleration that connects them is the acceleration of gravity on Earth. In other places, with different gravitational accelerations, 1 kilogram weighs more or less newtons.

But they don't convert directly. That would be like asking "How do you convert miles to miles-per-hour ?"
