Answer:

\frac{60kgm}{s}

Explanation:

momentum = mass * velocity

= 20kg * 3m/s

= 60kgm/s

An airplane touches down on the runway with a speed of 70 m/s2. Determine the airplane after each second of its deceleration.
ivann1987 [24]
<span>vf^2 = vi^2 + 2*a*d
---
vf = velocity final
vi = velocity initial
a = acceleration
d = distance
---
since the airplane is decelerating to zero, vf = 0
---
0 = 55*55 + 2*(-2.5)*d
d = (-55*55)/(2*(-2.5))
d = 605 meters

What do we mean when we say that energy levels are quantized in atoms?
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

Electrons are located in specific orbit corresponding to discrete energy levels

Explanation:

In Bohr's model of the atom, electron orbit the nucleus in specific levels, each of them corresponding to a specific energy. The electrons cannot be located in the space between two levels: this means that only some values of energy are possible for the electrons, so the energy levels are quantized.

A confirmation of Bohr's model is found in the spectrum of emission of gases. In fact, when an electron jumps from a higher energy level to a lower energy level, it emits a photon whose energy is exactly equal to the difference in energy between the two levels: since the energy levels are discrete, this means that the emitted photons cannot have any value of wavelength, but also their wavelength will appear as a discrete spectrum. This is exactly what it is observed in the spectrum of emission of gases.

Imagine you are waiting for a train to pass at a railroad crossing. Will the train whistle have a higher pitch as the train appr
frosja888 [35]
THE DOPPLER EFFECT. Anyways, it would have a higher whistle as it approaches you, when it gets to you it only gets quieter because it leaves after. Think of a motorcycle going by, its loud coming to you then as it passes it gets quieter.

Answer:

    q = q₀ sin (wt)

Explanation:

In your statement it is not clear the type of circuit you are referring to, there are two possibilities.

1) The circuit of this problem is a system formed by an Ac voltage source and a capacitor, in this case all the voltage of the source is equal to the voltage at the terminals of the capacitor

                    ΔV = ΔV_{C}

we assume that the source has a voltage of the form

                    ΔV = ΔV₀o sin wt

The capacitance of a capacitor is

                   C = q / ΔV

                  q = C ΔV sin wt

the current in the circuit is

                    i = dq / dt

                    i = c ΔV₀ w cos wt

if we use

                  cos wt = sin (wt + π / 2)

we make this change by being a resonant oscillation

we substitute

                  i = w C ΔV₀ sin (wt + π/2)

With this answer we see that the current in capacitor has a phase factor of π/2 with respect to the current

2) Another possible circuit is an LC circuit.

In this case the voltage alternates between the inductor and the capacitor

                     V_{L} + V_{C} = 0

                      L di / dt + q / C = 0

the current is

                      i = dq / dt

                       

they ask us for a solution so that

                    L d²q / dt² + 1 / C q = 0

                     d²q / dt² + 1 / LC q = 0

this is a quadratic differential equation with solution of the form

                    q = A sin (wt + Ф)

to find the constant we derive the proposed solution and enter it into the equation

                di / dt = Aw cos (wt + Ф)

                d²i / dt²= - A w² sin (wt + Ф)

                 - A w² + 1 /LC  A = 0

                  w = √ (1 / LC)

To find the phase factor, for this we use the initial conditions for t = 0

in the case of condensate for t = or the charge is zero

                 0 = A sin Ф

                  Ф = 0

             

                  q = q₀ sin (wt)

Suppose the initial kinetic energy and final potential energy in an experiment are both zero. What can you conclude?
Kisachek [45]

Initially, the experiment has only potential energy (since total energy is the sum of kinetic and potential energy). And at the end, the experment has only kinetic energy.
