When light strikes an object, what happens to some of the light?

If wavelength and speed of a wave are 4 m and 332 m/s respectively, calculate its frequency

Furkat [3]

Explanation:

Given 

wavelength = 4 m

speed = 332 m/s

frequency = ?

We know we have the formula 

wavelength = speed / frequency 

4 = 332 / frequency 

frequency = 332/4

Therefore frequency is 83 Hertz .

A machine gun fires 50-g bullets at the rate of 4 bullets per second. The bullets leave the gun at a speed of 1000 m/s. What is

TEA [102]

Answer:

Average recoil force experienced by machine will be 200 N

Explanation:

We have give mass of each bullet m = 50 gram = 0.05 kg

There are 4 bullets

So mass of 4 bullets = 4×0.05 = 0.2 kg

Initial speed of the bullet u = 0 m/sec

And final speed of the bullet v = 1000 m/sec

So change in momentum $P=m(v-u)=0.2\times (1000-0)=200kgm/sec$

Time is given per second so t = 1 sec

We know that force is equal to rate of change of momentum

So force will be equal to $F=\frac{200}{1}=200N$

So average recoil force experienced by machine will be 200 N

The Hoover dam is a hydroelectric power plant that converts the energy of falling water into electricity. Which of the following

vlabodo [156]

The correct answer to the question is : B) The weight of the water, and C) The height of the water.

EXPLANATION :

Before coming into any conclusion, first we have to understand potential energy of a body.

The potential energy of a body due to its position from ground is known as gravitational potential energy.

The gravitational potential energy is calculated as -

Potential energy P.E = mgh

Here, m is the mass of the body, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

h stands for the height of the body from the ground.

We know that weight of a body is equal to the product of mass with acceleration due to gravity.

Hence, weight W = mg

Hence, potential energy is written as P.E = weight × height.

Hence, potential energy depends on the weight and height of the water.
