Explanation:
A force that leads to movement of an object is known as work.
The energy present in an object due to its position in a gravitational field is known as gravitational potential energy.
Kinetic energy is the energy obtained by an object due to its motion.
For example, when Jerome is swinging on a rope then there occurs movement in the swing due to which the swing has kinetic energy.
Since, a force has been applied on the swing to make it move. Hence, a work is also done.
Therefore, we can conclude that if Jerome is swinging on a rope and transferring energy from gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy, work is being done.
Sir Isaac Newton was an English Mathematician,physicist,astronomer,theologian and author who is widely recognized as one of the most influential scientist of all time because of his discovery of gravity(force that attracts a body toward center of earth).
Answer:
The quantity of energy per photon is inversely proportional to the wavelength of the light.
Explanation:
Energy of light is given as
E = hf
where E = energy of the photons,
f = frequency of the light
If the number of photons = n
(E/n) = (h/n) f
Let (E/n) = E'
(h/n) = h'
But the frequency of light is related to wavelength through the relation
v = fλ
where v = speed of light = c
λ = wavelength of light
f = (c/λ)
E' = h' f
Substituting for f
E' = h' (c/λ)
h' and c are both constants, h'×c = K
E' = (K/λ)
So, the quantity of energy per photon is inversely proportional to the wavelength of the light.
Hope this Helps!!!
Answer:
-2.5m/s²
Explanation:
The acceleration of a body is giving by the rate of change of the body's velocity. It is given by
a = Δv / t ----------------(i)
Where;
a = acceleration (measured in m/s²)
Δv = change in velocity = final velocity - initial velocity (measure in m/s)
t = time taken for the change (measured in seconds(s))
From the question;
i. initial velocity = 5m/s
final velocity = 0 [since the body (ball) comes to rest]
Δv = 0 - 5 = -5m/s
ii. time taken = t = 2s
<em>Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;</em>
a = (-5m/s) / (2s)
a = -2.5m/s²
Therefore, the acceleration of the ball is -2.5m/s²
NB: The negative sign shows that the ball was actually decelerating.
