An object is moving east, and its velocity changes from 66 mvs to 26 mvs in 10 seconds. Which describes the

STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

negative acceleration of 4m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity = 66m/s

Final velocity = 26m/s

Time taken = 10s

Unknown:

Description of the acceleration = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.

It is mathematically expressed as;

acceleration = $\frac{v - u}{t}$

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

Now insert the parameters and solve;

Acceleration = $\frac{26 - 66}{10}$ = -4m/s²

So, we see a negative acceleration of 4m/s²

If you rub a balloon on a piece of fabric or carpeting and then hold it against your head, your hair can stand on end. Use what

Anon25 [30]

I believe this happens because when you rub the balloon on the carpet or fabric, the connection or contact of that jumbles up the atoms and they receive the energy which makes your hair as the question said 'stand on end'

An electron is trapped in an infinite square-well potential of width 0.6 nm. If the electron is initially in the n = 4 state, wh

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

E₁ = 1.042 eV

E₄₋₃= 7.29 eV

E₄₋₂= 12.50 eV

E₄₋₁= 15.63 eV

E₃₋₂= 5.21eV

E₃₋₁= 8.34eV

E₂₋₁= 3.13eV

Explanation:

The energy in an infinite square-well potential is giving by:

$E = \frac {h^{2} n^{2}}{8mL^{2}}$

where, h: Planck constant = 6.62x10⁻³⁴J.s, n: is the energy state, m: mass of the electron and L: widht of the square-well potential

The energy of the electron in the ground state, n = 1, is:

$E_{1} = \frac {(6.62 \cdot 10^{-34})^{2} (1)^{2}}{(8) (9.11 \cdot 10^{-31}) (0.6 \cdot 10^{-9} m)^{2}}$

$E_{1} = 1.67 \cdot 10^{-19} J = 1.042 eV$

The photon energies that are emitted as the electron jumps to the ground state is the difference between the states:

$E_{\Delta n} = \Delta n^{2} E_{1}$

$E_{(4 - 3)} = (4^{2} - 3^{2}) 1.042 eV = 7.29eV$

$E_{(4 - 2)} = (4^{2} - 2^{2}) 1.042 eV = 12.50eV$

$E_{(4 - 1)} = (4^{2} - 1^{2}) 1.042 eV = 15.63eV$

$E_{(3 - 2)} = (3^{2} - 2^{2}) 1.042 eV = 5.21eV$

$E_{(3 - 1)} = (3^{2} - 1^{2}) 1.042 eV = 8.34eV$

$E_{(2 - 1)} = (2^{2} - 1^{2}) 1.042 eV = 3.13eV$

Have a nice day!

In which type of process is a gas heated so rapidly that is expands before any heat can escape, resulting in an absence of heat

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

Adiabatic.

Explanation:

Any process in which there is no heat tranference is called adiabatic. In the situation, it is explained that due to the change of volume there is no heat between the gas and the environment.
