Answer:
When you are running the most important force that you should understand is friction. Friction is a force that opposes movement between two objects, but for runners friction makes you faster. Friction gives you a better and more efficient way to use your energy into speed.
Answer:
The semi truck travels at an initial speed of 69.545 meters per second downwards.
Explanation:
In this exercise we see a case of an entirely inellastic collision between the semi truck and the car, which can be described by the following equation derived from Principle of Linear Momentum Conservation: (We assume that velocity oriented northwards is positive)
(1)
Where:
,
- Masses of the semi truck and the car, measured in kilograms.
,
- Initial velocities of the semi truck and the car, measured in meters per second.
- Final speed of the system after collision, measured in meters per second.
If we know that
,
,
and
, then the initial velocity of the semi truck is:





The semi truck travels at an initial speed of 69.545 meters per second downwards.
Answer:
λ = 102.78 nm
This radiation is in the UV range,
Explanation:
Bohr's atomic model for the hydrogen atom states that the energy is
E = - 13.606 / n²
where 13.606 eV is the ground state energy and n is an integer
an atom transition is the jump of an electron from an initial state to a final state of lesser emergy
ΔE = 13.606 (1 /
- 1 / n_{i}^{2})
the so-called Lyman series occurs when the final state nf = 1, so the second line occurs when ni = 3, let's calculate the energy of the emitted photon
DE = 13.606 (1/1 - 1/3²)
DE = 12.094 eV
let's reduce the energy to the SI system
DE = 12.094 eV (1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J / 1 ev) = 10.35 10⁻¹⁹ J
let's find the wavelength is this energy, let's use Planck's equation to find the frequency
E = h f
f = E / h
f = 19.35 10⁻¹⁹ / 6.63 10⁻³⁴
f = 2.9186 10¹⁵ Hz
now we can look up the wavelength
c = λ f
λ = c / f
λ = 3 10⁸ / 2.9186 10¹⁵
λ = 1.0278 10⁻⁷ m
let's reduce to nm
λ = 102.78 nm
This radiation is in the UV range, which occurs for wavelengths less than 400 nm.
A negative ion is a atom that has an extra electron, but the same # of protons
