Answer:

3.75 m/s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Acceleration (a) = 1.5 m/s²

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Time (t) = 2.5 s

Final velocity (v) =?

a = (v – u) / t

1.5 = (v – 0) / 2.5

1.5 = v / 2.5

Cross multiply

v = 1.5 × 2.5

v = 3.75 m/s

Hence, the escape velocity of the squirrel is 3.75 m/s

A concave mirror has a focal length of 30.0 CM. an object is placed 15.0 CM from the mirror. what is the radius of curvature of

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

60 cm

Explanation:

We are given;

Focal length of a concave mirror as 30.0 cm
Object distance is 15.0 cm

We are required to determine the radius of curvature.

We need to know that the radius of a curvature is the radius of a circle from which the curved mirror is part.

We also need to know that the radius of curvature is twice the focal length of a curved mirror.

Therefore;

Radius of curvature = 2 × Focal length

Therefore;

Radius of curvature = 2 × 30 cm

= 60 cm

The force on the spring is F0 and it stores elastic potential energy PEs0. If the spring displacement is tripled to 3x0, determi

Dimas [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let initial extension in the spring= x₀

Force on the spring = F₀

Let spring constant = k

Fo = k x₀

Fn = 3k x₀

Fn /Fo = 3

PEs0 ( ORIGINAL) =1/2 k x₀²

PEsn ( NEW) =1/2 k (3x₀)²

PEsn / PEs0 = 9

Find the distance in nm between two slits that produces the first minimum for 410-nm violet light at an angle of 14.5°.

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

820 nm

Explanation:

We are given that

Wavelength= $\lambda=410 nm$

$\lambda=410\times 10^{-9} m$

$1nm=10^{-9} m$

$\theta=14.5^{\circ}$

For first minimum therefore

m=0

We know that for destructive interference

$(m+\frac{1}{2})\lambda=dsin\theta$

Substitute the values

$(0+\frac{1}{2})\times 410\times 10^{-9}=dsin 14.5$

$d=\frac{410\times 10^{-9}}{2\times sin 14.5}$

$d=820\times 10^{-9} m=820 nm$

Hence, the distance between two slits that produces the first minimum=820 nm

. A 13-g goldfinch has a speed of 8.5 m/s. What is its kinetic energy?

lesya692 [45]

PLEASE PRESS THE “Thanks!” BUTTON! :)
13 g —> 0.013 kg
KE = 1/2(m)(v)^2
KE = 1/2(0.013)(8.5)^2
KE = 0.47 J
