Answer:

1.F: About 6*10^14 Hz

2.E: About 4*10^ -19 J

Explanation:

Frequency: We knew that the speed of a wave is its wavelength(λ)* frequency(f, in Hz). By the wave-particle duality we know we can calculate the frequency of light in the same way. So, c=495nm *f, f=c/495nm=> (299,792,458 m/s) / (4.95*10^-7 m)

=6.05*10^14 /s

Energy: The energy photon contains can be calculate by this formula-- E=hf

f is the frequency and h is Planck's constant which is about 6.62 ×10^-34 *m^2*kg/s (after dimensional analysis ) =6.62*10^ -34 J*s.

So, the energy of a blue photon is (6.05*10^14)*(6.62*10^-34)=40.051*10^-20= 4.051*10^-19 J

As shown in the diagram, two forces act on an object. The forces have magnitudes F1 = 5.7 N and F2 = 1.9 N. What third force wil

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Second option 6.3 N at 162° counterclockwise from

F1->

Explanation:

Observe the attached image. We must calculate the sum of all the forces in the direction x and in the direction y and equal the sum of the forces to 0.

For the address x we have:

$-F_3sin(b) + F_1 = 0$

For the address and we have:

$-F_3cos(b) + F_2 = 0$

The forces $F_1$ and $F_2$ are known

$F_1 = 5.7\ N\\\\F_2 = 1.9\ N$

We have 2 unknowns ( $F_3$ and b) and we have 2 equations.

Now we clear $F_3$ from the second equation and introduce it into the first equation.

$F_3 = \frac{F_2}{cos (b)}$

Then

$-\frac{F_2}{cos (b)}sin(b)+F_1 = 0\\\\F_1 = \frac{F_2}{cos (b)}sin(b)\\\\F_1 = F_2tan(b)\\\\tan(b) = \frac{F_1}{F_2}\\\\tan(b) = \frac{5.7}{1.9}\\\\tan^{-1}(\frac{5.7}{1.9}) = b\\\\b= 72\°\\\\m = b +90\\\\\m= 162\°$

Then we find the value of $F_3$

$F_3 = \frac{F_1}{sin(b)}\\\\F_3 =\frac{5.7}{sin(72\°)}\\\\F_3 = 6.01 N$

Finally the answer is 6.3 N at 162° counterclockwise from

F1->

A psychopathologist records the number of criminal offenses among teenage drug users in a nationwide sample of 1,201 participant

lara [203]

Answer:

Standard deviation = 3

Explanation:

Given

$N = 1201$

$SS = 10800$

Required

Determine the standard deviation

First, we need to determine the variance;

$Variance = \frac{SS}{N - 1}$

This gives:

$Variance = \frac{10800}{1201 - 1}$

$Variance = \frac{10800}{1200}$

$Variance = 9$

Know that:

$Variance = SD^2$

Where SD represents standard deviation

This gives

$9 = SD^2$

Take square root

$SD = \sqrt 9$

$SD = 3$

A cyclist going downhill is accelerating at 1. 2 m/s2. If the final velocity of the cyclist is 16 m/s after 10 seconds, what is

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf v_i= 4 \ m/s}}$

Explanation:

We are asked to find the cyclist's initial velocity. We are given the acceleration, final velocity, and time, so we will use the following kinematic equation.

$v_f= v_i + at$

The cyclist is acceleration at 1.2 meters per second squared. After 10 seconds, the velocity is 16 meters per second.

$v_f$ = 16 m/s
a= 1.2 m/s²
t= 10 s

Substitute the values into the formula.

$16 \ m/s = v_i + (1.2 \ m/s^2)(10 \ s)$

Multiply.

$16 \ m/s = v_i + (1.2 \ m/s^2 * 10 \ s)$

$16 \ m/s = v_i + 12 \ m/s$

We are solving for the initial velocity, so we must isolate the variable $v_i$ . Subtract 12 meters per second from both sides of the equation.

$16 \ m/s - 12 \ m/s = v_i + 12 \ m/s -12 \ m/s$

$4 \ m/s = v_i$

The cyclist's initial velocity is <u>4 meters per second.</u>

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts of the Magnetic Force. This expression will be expressed in both the vector and the scalar ways. Through this second we can directly use the presented values and replace them to obtain the value of the magnitude. Mathematically this can be described as,

$\vec{F_B} = q(\vec{V}\times \vec{B})$
