a motorcycle starts from rest covers 200 meter distance in 6 second calculate final velocity and acceleration

Ivanshal [37]

Explanation:

s = ut + 1/2 a t^2

200 = 0 * 6 + 1/2 * a * (6)^2

200 = 1/2 * a * 36

200 = 18 a

a = 200/18

a= 11.1m/sec^2

v = u + at

v = 0 + 11.1 * 6

v = 66.6m/s

hope it helps you

Red laser light from a He-Ne laser (λ = 632.8 nm) creates a second-order fringe at 53.2° after passing through the grating. What

Svetlanka [38]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Wavelength of red laser light, $\lambda=632.8\ nm=632.8\times 10^{-9}\ m$

The second order fringe is formed at an angle of, $\theta=53.2^{\circ}$

For diffraction grating,

$d\ sin\theta=n\lambda$

$d=\dfrac{n\lambda}{sin\theta}$ , n = 2

$d=\dfrac{2\times 632.8\times 10^{-9}}{sin(53.2)}$

$d=1.58\times 10^{-6}\ m$

The wavelength λ of light that creates a first-order fringe at 22 is given by :

$\lambda=d\ sin\theta$

$\lambda=1.58\times 10^{-6}\ sin(22)$

$\lambda=5.91\times 10^{-7}\ m$

$\lambda=591\ nm$

Hence, this is the required solution.

How does the speed of visible light compare with the speed of gamma rays

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

They are the same

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves consist of perpendicular oscillations of electric and magnetic field, which oscillate perpendicularly to the direction of motion of the wave (transverse wave). One property of the electromagnetic waves is that they travel in a vacuum always at the same speed, called speed of light:

$c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s$

Electromagnetic waves are classified into 7 different types according to their frequency; from highest to lowest frequency, we have:

Gamma rays

X-rays

Ultraviolet

Visible light

Infrared

Microwaves

Radio waves

We see that both visible light and gamma rays are electromagnetic waves, so they both travel in a vacuum at the same speed, the speed of light.

A copper sphere was moving at 40 m/s when it hit another object. This caused all of the KE to be converted into thermal energy f

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

Temperature increase = 2.1 [C]

Explanation:

We need to identify the initial data of the problem.

v = velocity of the copper sphere = 40 [m/s]

Cp = heat capacity = 387 [J/kg*C]

The most important data given is the fact that when the shock occurs kinetic energy is transformed into thermal energy, therefore it will have to be:

$E_{k}=Q\\ E_{k}= kinetic energy [J]\\Q=thermal energy [J]\\Re-employment values and equalizing equations\\\\\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2}=m*C_{p}*dT \\The masses are canceled \\\\dT=\frac{v^{2}}{C_{p} *2} \\dT=2.1 [C]$

What is an element that needs to lose or gain<br> 4 valence electrons in order to become<br> stable?

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

Elements in Group 14 could lose four, or gain four electrons to achieve a noble gas structure. In fact, if they are going to form ions, Group 14 elements form positive ions. Carbon and silicon form covalent bonds. Carbon's millions of organic compounds are all based on shared electrons in covalent bonds.
