A plane drops a hamper of medical supplies from a height of 5000 m during a practice run over the ocean. The plane’s horizontal
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

346.70015 m/s

Explanation:

In the x axis speed is

v_x=149\ m/s

In the y axis

v_y=\sqrt{2gh}\\\Rightarrow v_y=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 5000}

The resultant velocity is given by

v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{149^2+2\times 9.8\times 5000}\\\Rightarrow v=346.70015\ m/s

The magnitude of the overall velocity of the hamper at the instant it strikes the surface of the ocean is 346.70015 m/s

The energy of a photon of light is __________ proportional to its frequency and __________ proportional to its wavelength.
icang [17]

Answer:

D) directly, inversely

Explanation:

The energy of a photon of light is directly proportional to its frequency and inversely proportional to its wavelength.

Frequency is the number of waves that passes through a point per unit of time.

Wavelength is the is the distance between successive crests or troughs on a wave.

 Mathematically, frequency is related to wavelength and velocity using;

             Energy   =  h x f

                      where h is the Planck's constant

                                  f is the frequency

         

                   Since c  = f ∧

where f is the frequency of the wave

           ∧ is the wavelength of the wave

           c is the speed of light

So;

                 f  = c/∧

  Therefore;

                E  = \frac{h c}{wavelength}

From the equation, we see an inverse relationship between E and wavelength and a direct one with frequency.

What fraction of the total energy of a SHO is kinetic when the displacement is one third the amplitude
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

The fraction of kinetic energy to the total energy is \frac{K}{T}=\frac{8}{9}.

Explanation:

displacement is one third of the amplitude.

Let the amplitude is A.

x= A/3

The kinetic energy of the body executing SHM is

K = 0.5 mw^2(A^2 - x^2)\\\\K = 0.5 m w^2 \left ( A^2 -\frac{A^2}{9} \right )\\\\K = 0.5 mw^2\times \frac{8A^2}{9}......(1)

The total energy is

T =0.5 mw^2A^2 ..... (2)

Divide (1) by (2)

\frac{K}{T}=\frac{8}{9}
