Which of the following is the energy of motion?
Bogdan [553]

Kinetic energy is the energy of the motion.

This is because the kinetic energy can be calculated by using the formula,

K.E.=1/2 mv^2

where, v is the velocity of moving body i.e. the body is in motion.

What is the wavelength of an X-ray photon with energy 8.0 keV (8000 eV)? (1 eV = 1.60 × 10−19 joule.)
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

Wavelength = 0.15 nm

Frequency = 1939.3939\times 10^{15}Hz

Explanation:

We have given photon energy E = 8 KeV = 8000 eV

In question it is given that 1eV=1.6\times 10^{-19}J

So 8000eV=1.6\times 8000\times 10^{-19}=12800\times 10^{-19}j

Plank's constant h=6.6\times 10^{-34}js

We know that photon energy is given by E=h\nu

So 12800\times 10^{-19}=6.6\times 10^{-34}\nu

\nu =1939.3939\times 10^{15}Hz

Now wavelength \lambda =\frac{c}{f}=\frac{3\times 10^8}{1939.3939\times 10^{15}}=0.0015\times 10^{-7}m=0.15nm

If the torque required to loosen a nut that holds a wheel on a car has a magnitude of 55 n·m, what force must be exerted at the
erastova [34]

Either 175 N or 157 N depending upon how the value of 48° was measured from.    
You didn't mention if the angle of 48° is from the lug wrench itself, or if it's from the normal to the lug wrench. So I'll solve for both cases and you'll need to select the desired answer.    
Since we need a torque of 55 N·m to loosen the nut and our lug wrench is 0.47 m long, that means that we need 55 N·m / 0.47 m = 117 N of usefully applied force in order to loosen the nut. This figure will be used for both possible angles.    
Ideally, the force will have a 0° degree difference from the normal and 100% of the force will be usefully applied. Any value greater than 0° will have the exerted force reduced by the cosine of the angle from the normal. Hence the term "cosine loss".     
If the angle of 48° is from the normal to the lug wrench, the usefully applied power will be:  
U = F*cos(48)  
where  
U = Useful force  
F = Force applied    
So solving for F and calculating gives:  
U = F*cos(48)  
U/cos(48) = F  
117 N/0.669130606 = F  
174.8537563 N = F    
So 175 Newtons of force is required in this situation.    
If the 48° is from the lug wrench itself, that means that the force is 90° - 48° = 42° from the normal. So doing the calculation again (this time from where we started plugging in values) we get  
U/cos(42) = F  
117/0.743144825 = F  
157.4390294 = F    
Or 157 Newtons is required for this case.

Which happens to the magnetic field of a wire when you change the direction of the current in the wire?
SVEN [57.7K]
Nothing will happen to the magnetic field.
BUT If you're talking about the magnetic force , then when changing the current direction , the direction of the magnetic force will be reversed.

(You'ld like to know :
-Changing direction of current ONLY , reverses the direction of magnetic force.
-Changing direction of Magnetic field only (poles of magnet) , reverses the direction of magnetic force.
-Changing the direction of both , magnetic field and current , doesn't effect direction of magnetic force.)

N.B : Magnetic Force is experienced only when direction of current is PARALLEL to direction of magnetic field .

--> Flemming Left Hand Rule is used to know direction of magnetic force.

Hope This Helps.
