This problem, a squid at rest suddenly sees a predator coming toward it and needs to escape. Assume the following:______.

Physics

Answer:

6.79 m/s

Explanation:

By applying the principle of conservation of momentum.

The total momentum = MV - mv = 0 (since the squid is beginning at rest)

the mass of the squid (M) in absence of water in its cavity = (6.5 - 1.75) kg

= 4.75 kg

speed of the squid (V) = 2.5 m/s

mass of the water expelled (m) = 1.75 kg

speed of the water (v) = ???

∴

4.75 × 2.5 = 1.75 × v

v = \dfrac{4.75 \times 2.5}{1.75 }

v = 6.79 m/s

What does resonance result in? Quieter sounds, frequency, amplitude
Amanda [17]

Answer:

The answer is louder sounds. Resonance is the process, in which a system vibrates with increasing amplitudes, at specific frequencies of excitation. Resonance results in louder sounds. ... This is because of the surrounding environment, resonates with the cavity of the shell .

The energy band gap of GaAs is 1.4 eV. Calculate the optimum wavelength of light for
notsponge [240]

Answer:

The optimum wavelength = (8.863 × 10⁻⁷) m = 886.3 nm

Explanation:

The light that will generate the photovoltaic energy of 1.4 eV will must have that amount of energy

Energy of light waves is given as

E = hf

h = Planck's constant = (6.626 × 10⁻³⁴) J.s

f = Frequency of the light

The frequency is then further given as

f = (c/λ)

c = speed of light = (3.0 × 10⁸) m/s

λ = wavelength of the light = ?

E = (hc/λ)

λ = (hc/E)

Energy = E = 1.4 eV = 1.4 × 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ = (2.2428 × 10⁻¹⁹) J

λ = (6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ × 3.0 × 10⁸)/(2.2428 × 10⁻¹⁹)

λ = (8.863 × 10⁻⁷) m = 886 nm

Hope this Helps!!!

sergiy2304 [10]
We are given an electromagnetic wave with a frequency of 5.09 x 10^14 Hz and travelling through a transparent medium. If the medium was vacuum, the speed of the wave would be equal to the speed of light. Otherwise, the main factor that would determine the speed of the wave is its wavelength.
