Answer:

The velocity of the nickel just before it hits the ground is approximately 49.3 m/s

Explanation:

In order to calculate the velocity of the nickel just before it hits the ground, we recall the kinematic equation of motion, v² = u² + 2·g·h, where the variables of the equation are defined as follows;

v = The velocity of the nickel just before it hits the ground after it is pushed off the observation deck

u = The initial velocity of the nickel just before it is pushed off the observation deck = 0 m/s

g = The acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h = The height from which he nickel is pushed off the edge = 124 m

Substituting the given values and the constant, "g", we have;

v² = 0² + 2 × 9.8 × 124 = 2,430.4

v = √2,430.4

Using a graphing calculator, we have;

v = √2,430.4 = 14·√(62/5) ≈ 49.3

The velocity of the nickel just before it hits the ground = v ≈ 49.3 m/s.

A laser pulse of duration 25 ms has a total energy of 1.4 J. The wavelength of this radiation is
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

n = 4 x 10¹⁸ photons

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the energy of one photon in the radiation:

E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}\\\\

where,

E = Energy of one photon = ?

h = Plank's Constant = 6.625 x 10⁻³⁴ J.s

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

λ = wavelength of radiation = 567 nm = 5.67 x 10⁻⁷ m

Therefore,

E = \frac{(6.625\ x\ 10^{-34}\ J.s)(3\ x\ 10^8\ m/s)}{5.67\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m}

E = 3.505 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Now, the number of photons to make up the total energy can be calculated as follows:

Total\ Energy = nE\\1.4\ J = n(3.505\ x\ 10^{-19}\ J)\\n = \frac{1.4\ J}{3.505\ x\ 10^{-19}\ J}\\

<u>n = 4 x 10¹⁸ photons</u>

An organ pipe open at both ends is 1.5 m long. A second organ pipe that is closed at one end and open at the other is 0.75 m lon
telo118 [61]

Answer:

A. 110Hz,220Hz, 330 Hz

Explanation:

for organ open at open both ends;

the length of the organ for the fundamental frequency, L = A---->N + N----->A

A---->N  = λ /4 and N----->A = λ /4

L = λ /4 + λ /4 = λ /2

L = \frac{\lambda}{2} \\\\\lambda = 2L

λ  = 2 x 1.5m = 3.0 m

Wave equation is given by;

V = Fλ

Where;

V is the speed of sound

F is the frequency of the wave

F = V/ λ

F₀ = V / 2L

Where;

F₀  is the fundamental frequency

F₀ = 330 / 2(1.5)

F₀ = 330 / 3

F₀ = 110 Hz

the length of the organ for the first overtone, L = A---->N + N----->A + A----->N +  N----->A

L = 4λ /4

L = λ

λ = 1.5 m

F₁ = 330 / 1.5

F₁ = 220 Hz

Thus, F₁ = 2F₀

For open organ at one end

the length of the organ for the fundamental frequency, L = N------A

L = λ /4

λ = 4L

F₀ = V/4L

F₀ = 330 / (4 x 0.75)

F₀ = 110 Hz

the length of the organ for the first overtone, L = N-----N + N-----A

L = λ/2 + λ / 4

L = 3λ /4

F₁ = 3F₀

F₁ = 3 x 110

F₁ = 330 Hz

Thus the fundamental frequency for both organs is 110 Hz,

The first overtone for the organ open at both ends is 220 Hz

The first overtone for the organ open at one end is 330 Hz

The correct option is "A. 110Hz,220Hz, 330 Hz"
