Two sources emit beams of light of wavelength 550 nm. The light from source A has an intensity of 10 μW/m2, and the light from s

ource B has an intensity of 20 μW/m2. This is all we know about the two beams. Which of the following statements about these beams are correct? A) Beam B carries twice as many photons per second as beam A. B) A photon in beam B has twice the energy of a photon in beam A. C) The frequency of the light in beam B is twice as great as the frequency of the light in beam A. D) A photon in beam B has the same energy as a photon in beam A. E) None of the above statements are true.

Answer:

<em>A) Beam B carries twice as many photons per second as beam A.</em>

Explanation:

If we have two waves with the same wavelength, then their intensity is proportional to their power, or the energy per unit time.

We also know that the amount of photon present in an electromagnetic beam is proportional to the energy of the beam, hence the amount of beam per second is proportional to the power.

With these two facts, we can say that the intensity is a measure of the amount of photon per second in an electromagnetic beam. So we can say that <em>beam B carries twice as more power than beam A, or Beam B carries twice as many photons per second as beam A.</em>

When a roller coaster gets to the bottom of a descent, describe the energy transfers and changes to energy stores that happen if
Feliz [49]

Answer:

its B

Explanation:

It's B & A at the same time because A. a roller coaster uses brakes to slow down and stop. B is the most reasonable answer. Because all roller coasters go up and over a second time over the hill, but they also slow down. But go with B.

In this experiment you will investigate which of the following properties of Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction? (Select
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

Part A

According to Faraday's law the induced emf in coil is equal to negative of its rate of change of magnetic flux time the number of turns in the coil.

\epsilon = -N\frac{d\phi}{dt}= -N\Delta\frac{BA}{\Delta t}

When an emf generated by a change of magnetic flux, produced current of whose magnetic field opposes the change  which produces it.

By the above equation the correct options are 1,2 and 4

Part B

Large signals of  frequency of 60Hz are measured by osciloscope.

Hence the correct option is part 1.

a bucket of water of mass 20kg is pulled at a constant velocity up to a platform 40 meters above the ground. this takes 10 minut
erma4kov [3.2K]
<span>Taking into account the information above, we know the average mass of the bucket of water may be m=20-5/2=17.5kg. As the bucket of water is pulled at a "constant velocity" the work required to raise the bucket to the platform transformed into the potential energy of the bucket of water. That is why it should be W=mgh=17.5*9.8*40=6860J</span>

Igoryamba

Answer:

It should fly 8° to west of south at 430km/h

Explanation:

According to the diagram. X components for both velocities must have the same magnitude in order to get the resultant velocity due south.

V_{w}*cos(45) = V_{A}*sin(\alpha )   Solving for α:

α = 8.03°
