Answer:

V = 0.39 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of hockey puck, m = 0.2 kg

Mass of goalie = 40 kg

Speed of hockey puck, v = 80 m/s

We need to find the speed with which the goalie slide on the slide. Let V be the speed. Using the conservation of momentum as follows :

$mv=(M+m)V\\\\V=\dfrac{mv}{M+m}\\\\V=\dfrac{0.2\times 80}{0.2+40}\\\\V=0.39\ m/s$

So, the required speed is 0.39 m/s.

(1) The image of an object placed further from the lens than the focal point will be upside down and smaller than the object.

(2) When light rays reflect, they bounce back.

(3) Images formed by a concave lens will look magnified.

(4) When light rays enter a different medium, they bend.

<h3>1.0 Object placed further from the lens than the focal point</h3>

The image of an object placed further from the lens than the focal point will be diminished and inverted.

Thus, the correct answer will be "upside down and smaller than the object".

<h3>2.0 What is reflection of light?</h3>

The ability of light to bounce back when it strike a hard surface is known as refection.

<h3>3.0 Image formed by concave lens</h3>

A concave lens is diverging lens is usually virtual, erect and magnified.

<h3>4.0 Refraction of light</h3>

The change in speed of light when it travels from medium to another medium is known as refraction. Refraction is also, the ability of light to bend around obstacles.

Why does the mass spectrum of Br2 contain three signals whose heights are almost in the ratio of 1:2:1? What are the origins of

Eddi Din [679]

<span>The element bromine has two isotopes: Br-79 and Br-81, with a 50%-50% isotopic abundance. Statistically, 25% of bromine molecules will be Br79-Br79, 25% will be Br81-Br81 and 50% will be Br79-Br81. This is equivalent to a ratio of 1:1:2 or 1:2:1. The peaks in a mass spectrum just like chromatography reflect this relative abundance of different isotopic combinations.</span>

A certain shade of blue has a frequency of 7.15 × 1014 hz. what is the energy of exactly one photon of this light?

Ket [755]

The energy carried by a single photon of frequency f is given by:
$E=hf$
where $h=6.6 \cdot 10^{-34} m^2 kg s^{-1}$ is the Planck constant. In our problem, the frequency of the photon is $f=7.15 \cdot 10^{14}Hz$ , and by using these numbers we can find the energy of the photon:
$E=(6.6\cdot 10^{-34}m^2 kg s^{-1})(7.15 \cdot 10^{14}Hz)=4.7 \cdot 10^{-19}J$
