Answer: 4.98 m/s

Explanation:

You solve these kinetic energy, potential energy problems by using the fact P.E.+ K.E. = a constant as long as friction is ignored.

PEi = 0 in this case

KEi = ½mVi² = PEf+KEf = mghf + ½mVf²

½1210*8.31² = 1210*9.8*2.26 + ½1210*Vf²

½1210*Vf² = ½1210*8.31² - 1210*9.8*2.26

Vf² = 8.31² - 2*9.8*2.26 = 4.98² so Vf = 4.98m/s

Which element is a metalloid?

Ann [662]

Answer:

The metalloids are located on the right side of the periodic table in a "step-like" arrangement.

All of the possible metalloids are:

boron (B), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), arsenic (As), antimony (Sb), tellurium (Te), and polonium (Po)

Ad libitum [116K]

A "screen" or even just a set of parallel bars are highly reflective to electromagnetic waves as long as the open spaces are small compared to the wavelengths.

"Grid" dishes work fine ... with less weight and less wind resistance ... for frequencies below about 3 GHz. (Wavelengths of at least 10 cm.)

(I even worked on a microwave system in South America where huge grid dishes were used on a 90-mile link.)

A light source radiates 60.0 W of single-wavelength sinusoidal light uniformly in all directions. What is the amplitude of the m

Anna35 [415]

To solve this problem it is necessary to take into account the concepts of Intensity as a function of Power and the definition of magnetic field.

The intensity depending on the power is defined as

$I = \frac{P}{4\pi r^2},$

Where

P = Power

r = Radius

Replacing the values that we have,

$I = \frac{60}{(4*\pi (0.7)^2)}$

$I = 9.75 Watt/m^2$

The definition of intensity tells us that,

$I = \frac{1}{2}\frac{B_o^2 c}{\mu}$

Where,

$B_0 =$ Magnetic field

$\mu =$ Permeability constant

c = Speed velocity

Then replacing with our values we have,

$9.75 = \frac{Bo^2 (3*10^8)}{(4\pi*10^{-7})}$

Re-arrange to find the magnetic Field B_0

$B_o = 2.86*10^{-7} T$

Therefore the amplitude of the magnetic field of this light is $B_o = 2.86*10^{-7} T$

A 200.0 g block rests on a frictionless, horizontal surface. It is pressed against a horizontal spring with spring constant 4500

kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

6 m/s

Explanation:

Given that :

mass of the block m = 200.0 g = 200 × 10⁻³ kg

the horizontal spring constant k = 4500.0 N/m

position of the block (distance x) = 4.00 cm = 0.04 m

To determine the speed the block will be traveling when it leaves the spring; we applying the work done on the spring as it is stretched (or compressed) with the kinetic energy.

i.e $\frac{1}{2} kx^2 = \frac{1}{2} mv^2$
