A 1.0 kg football is given an initial velocity at ground level of 20.0 m/s [37° above horizontal]. It gets blocked just after re
brilliants [131]
1) Data:

Vo = 20 m/s
α = 37°
Yo = 0
Y = 3m

2) Questions: V at Y = 3m and X at Y = 3 m

3) Calculate components of the initial velocity

Vox = Vo * cos(37°) = 15.97 m/s

Voy = Vo * sin(37°) = 12.04 m/s

4) Formulas

Vx = constant = 15.97 m/s

X = Vx * t

Vy = Voy - g*t

Y = Yo + Voy * t - g (t^2) / 2

5) Calculate t when Y = 3m (first time)

Use g ≈ 9.8 m/s^2

3 = 12.04 * t - 4.9 t^2

=> 4.9 t^2 - 12.04t + 3 = 0

Use the quadratic equation to solve the equation

=> t = 0.28 s and t = 2.18s

First time => t = 0.28 s.

6) Calculate Vy when t = 0.28 s

Vy = 12.04 m/s  - 9.8 * 0.28s = 9.3 m/s

7) Calculate V:

V = √ [ (Vx)^2 + (Vy)^2 ] = √[ (15.97m/s)^2 + (9.30 m/s)^2 ] = 18.48 m/s

tan(β) = Vy/Vx = 9.30 / 15.97 ≈ 0.582 => β ≈ arctan(0.582) ≈ 30°

Answer: V ≈ 18.5 m/s, with angle ≈ 30°

8) Calculate X at t = 0.28s

X = Vx * t = 15.97 m/s * 0.28s = 4,47m ≈ 4,5m

Answer: X ≈ 4,5 m

A red photon has a wavelength of 650 nm. An ultraviolet photon has a wavelength of 250 nm. The energy of an ultraviolet photon i
zimovet [89]

The energy of an ultraviolet photon is 2.6 times greater than a red photon.

<h3>Energy of a photon</h3>

The energy of a given photon of light is calculated using the wavelength and the speed of light.

<h3>Energy of a red photon</h3>

The energy of the a red photon at the given wavelength is calculated as follows;

E_r = \frac{hc}{\lambda} \\\\E_r = \frac{6.67 \times 10^{-34} \times 3 \times 10^8}{650 \times 10^{-9}} \\\\E_r = 3.078 \times 10^{-19} \ J

<h3>Energy of an ultraviolet photon</h3>

E_r = \frac{hc}{\lambda} \\\\E_r = \frac{6.67 \times 10^{-34} \times 3 \times 10^8}{250 \times 10^{-9}} \\\\E_r = 8.0 \times 10^{-19} \ J

<h3>The ratio of the two energies</h3>

= \frac{8.0 \times 10^{-19}}{3.078 \times 10^{-19}} \\\\= 2.6

Thus, the energy of an ultraviolet photon is 2.6 times greater than a red photon.
