Answer:

Acceleration (a) is defined as the rate of change of velocity. Velocity is a vector quantity, and therefore acceleration is also a vector quantity. The SI unit of acceleration is metres/second2 (m/s2).

A rod of very small diameter with a mass 2m and length 3L is placed along the xaxis with one end at the origin. An identical rod

rewona [7]

Answer:

coordinates of the center of mass for these two rods

( $x_{cm}$ , $y_{cm}$ )= ( $\frac{3L}{4}$ , $\frac{3L}{4}$ )cm

Explanation:

given

mass of a rod = 2m

length of the rod = 3L

mass of two rods = 2(2m) = 4m

radius = diameter/2 = $\frac{3L}{2}$

What amount of energy is needed for an electron to jump from n = 1 to n = 4?

liberstina [14]

Answer:

$E=2.04\times 10^{-18}\ J$

Explanation:

We need to find the energy for an electron to jump from n = 1 to n = 4.

The energy in transition from 1 state to another is given by :

$E=\dfrac{-2.18\times 10^{-18}}{n^2}\ J$

The difference in energy for n = 1 to n = 4 is:

$E=-2.18\times 10^{-18}\times (\dfrac{1}{4^2}-1)\\\\E=2.04\times 10^{-18}\ J$

So, the required energy is equal to $2.04\times 10^{-18}\ J$ .

never [62]

Answer:

10.4mm

Explanation:

2 pages = 1 leaf

200 pages = 100 leaves

100 × 0.10 = 10 mm thickness

Total thickness = 2(0.20) +10 = 0.4+10 = 10.4mm

A child, hunting for his favorite wooden horse, is running on the ground around the edge of a stationary merry-go-round. The ang

olga55 [171]

Answer:

9.22 s

Explanation:

One-quarter of a turn away is 1/4 of 2π, or π/2 which is approximately 1.57 rad

Let t (seconds) be the time it takes for the child to catch up with the horse. We would have the following equation of motion for the child and the horse:

For the child: $s_c = \omega_ct = 0.233t$
