Physics
1 answer:
UkoKoshka [18]3 years ago
8 0
The theory of relativity usually encompasses two interrelated theories by Albert Einstein: special relativity and general relativity, proposed and published in 1905 and 1915, respectively. Special relativity applies to all physical phenomena in the absence of gravity

Identify two factors that determine the state of matter
vova2212 [387]
Two factors determine whether a substance is a solid, a liquid, or a gas: The kinetic energies of the particles (atoms, molecules, or ions) that make up a substance. Kinetic energy tends to keep the particles moving apart. The attractive intermolecular forces between particles that tend to draw the particles together.

Calculate the de broglie wavelength (in picometers) of a hydrogen atom traveling at 440 m/s.
Aleonysh [2.5K]

De broglie wavelength, \lambda = \frac{h}{mv}, where h is the Planck's constant,  m is the mass and v is the velocity.

h = 6.63*10^{-34}

Mass of hydrogen atom,  m = 1.67*10^{-27}kg

v = 440 m/s

Substituting

   Wavelength \lambda = \frac{h}{mv} = \frac{6.63*10^{-34}}{1.67*10^{-27}*440} = 0.902 *10^{-9}m = 902 *10^{-12}m

1 pm = 10^{-12}m\\ \\ So , \lambda =902 pm

So  the de broglie wavelength (in picometers) of a hydrogen atom traveling at 440 m/s is 902 pm

Help me with this question Please
zysi [14]

Answer:

W has the lowest density and Y has the greatest density

Explanation:

Density of W = mass/volume = 11/24 = 0.45

Density of X = mass/volume = 11/12 = 0.91

Density of Y = m/v = 5.5/4 = 1.375

Density of Z = m/v = 5.5/11 = 0.5

From these we can find the answer......

Hope this answer is useful......

Plaskett's binary system consists of two stars that revolve in a circular orbit about a center of mass midway between them. This
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

1.554\times 10^{32}\ \text{kg}

Explanation:

M = Mass of each star

T = Time period = 15.5 days

v = Orbital velocity = 230 km/s

G = Gravitational constant = 6.674\times 10^{-11}\ \text{Nm}^2/\text{kg}^2

Radius of orbit is given by

R=\dfrac{vT}{2\pi}

We have the relation

\dfrac{Mv^2}{R}=\dfrac{GM^2}{(2R)^2}\\\Rightarrow M=\dfrac{4Rv^2}{G}\\\Rightarrow M=\dfrac{4\dfrac{vT}{2\pi}v^2}{G}\\\Rightarrow M=\dfrac{2v^3T}{\pi G}\\\Rightarrow M=\dfrac{2\times 230000^3\times 15.5\times 24\times 60\times 60}{\pi\times 6.674\times 10^{-11}}\\\Rightarrow M=1.554\times 10^{32}\ \text{kg}

The mass of each star is 1.554\times 10^{32}\ \text{kg}
