Answer:

A machine

Explanation:

A machine is any device that makes work easier. Machines make work easier by changing the strength or direction of a force. Machines do not decrease the amount of work that needs to be done, they just make work easier by changing the way it is done.

What is the energy range (in joules) of photons of wavelength 410 nm to 750 nm ? Express your answers using two significant figu

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

4.9 x 10^-19 J, 2.7 x 10^-19 J

Explanation:

first wavelength, λ1 = 410 nm = 410 x 10^-9 m

Second wavelength, λ2 = 750 nm = 750 x 10^-9 m

The relation between the energy and the wavelength is given by

E = h c / λ

Where, h is the Plank's constant and c be the velocity of light.

h = 6.63 x 10^-34 Js

c = 3 x 10^8 m/s

So, energy correspond to first wavelength

E1 = (6.63 x 10^-34 x 3 x 10^8) / (410 x 10^-9) = 4.85 x 10^-19 J

E1 = 4.9 x 10^-19 J

So, energy correspond to second wavelength

E2 = (6.63 x 10^-34 x 3 x 10^8) / (750 x 10^-9) = 2.652 x 10^-19 J

E2 = 2.7 x 10^-19 J

Amy is standing still on the ground; Bill is riding his bicycle at 5 m/s eastward; and Carlos is driving his car at 15 m/s westw

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

20 m/s westward

Explanation:

Taking eastward as positive direction, we have:

$v_B = +5 m/s$ is the velocity of Bill with respect to Amy (which is stationary)

$v_C = -15 m/s$ is the velocity of Carlos with respect to Amy

Bill is moving 5 m/s eastward compared to Amy at rest, so the velocity of Bill's reference frame is

$v_B = +5 m/s$

Therefore, Carlos velocity in Bill's reference frame will be

$v_C' = v_C - v_B = -15 m/s - (+5 m/s) = -20 m/s$

and the direction will be westward (negative sign).

A chair exerts a force of 20 N on a floor and is not moving. What force does

AysviL [449]

The floor exerts 20 N of force on the chair

Explanation:

We can answer this question by using Newton's third law, which states that:

"When an object A exerts a force (called action) on an object B, object B exerts an equal and opposite force (called reaction) on object A"

In this problem, we can identify:

- Object A as the chair

- Object B as the floor

This means that the force of 20 N exerted by the chair on the floor is the action, and so the force exerted by the floor on the chair is the reaction. Newton's third law states that these two forces are equal and opposite: therefore, the force exerted by the floor on the chair is also 20 N, but in the opposite direction.

Which device uses a rotating magnetic field to produce an electric current?

Kay [80]

The correct answer is C) a motor.
In particular, we are talking about an AC motor, which produces an alternating current. In an AC motor, a coil is immersed in a rotating magnetic field. Due to the motion of the magnetic field,the angle between the direction of the field and the surface enclosed by the coil changes. As a result, the magnetic flux through the coil changes over time (the magnetic flux is given by:
 $\phi=BAcos\theta$ 
where B is the intensity of the magnetic field, A is the area enclosed by the coil and $\theta$ is the angle between the direction of B and the perpendicular to the plane of the coil). For Faraday-Newmann-Lenz law, this change in flux induces an electromotive force (emf) into the coil, according to:
 $emf=- \frac{d \Phi}{dt}$ 
where the numerator is the variation of magnetic flux and dt is the time interval. This emf in the coil produced an electrical current in the circuit.
