Answer:

G.P.E = 5.292 Joules

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 0.6 kg

Height = 0.9 m

To find the gravitational potential energy;

Gravitational potential energy (GPE): it is an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position above the earth.

Mathematically, potential energy is given by the formula;

G.P.E = mgh

Where,

G.P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

But we know that acceleration due to gravity is equal to 9.8m/s²

G.P.E = 0.6*9.8*0.9

G.P.E = 5.292 Joules

A hunter aims at a deer which is 40 yards away. Her cross- bow is at a height of 5ft, and she aims for a spot on the deer 4ft ab
shutvik [7]

Answer:

a)  θ₁ = 0.487º , b)   t = 0.400 s ,        x = 11.73 ft

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use the projectile launch relationships.

The initial height is I = 5 ft and the final height y = 4 ft

            y = y₀ + v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

The distance to the band is x = 40 yard (3 ft / 1 yard) = 120 ft

            x = v₀ₓ t

            t = x / v₀ₓ

We replace

             y –y₀ = v_{oy} x / v₀ₓ - ½ g x² / v₀ₓ²

             v_{oy} = v₀ sin θ

             v₀ₓ = vo cos θ

             

             y –y₀ = x tan θ - ½ g x² / v₀² cos² θ

                5-4 = 120 tan θ - ½ 32 120 / (300 2 cos2 θ)

                1 = 120 tan θ - 0.0213 sec² θ

Let's use the trigonometry relationship

               Sec² θ = 1 - tan² θ

                 1 = 120 tan θ - 0.0213 (1 –tan²θ)

                 0.0213 tan²θ + 120 tanθ -1.0213 = 0

                 

We change variables

          u = tan θ

          u² + 5633.8 u - 48.03 = 0

We solve the second degree equation

          u = [-5633.8 ±√(5633.8 2 + 4 48.03)] / 2

          u = [- 5633.8 ± 5633.82] / 2

           u₁ = 0.0085

           u₂= -5633.81

           u = tan θ

           θ = tan⁻¹ u

For u₁

           θ₁ = tan⁻¹ 0.0085

           θ₁ = 0.487º

For u₂

           θ₂ = -89.99º

The launch angle must be 0.487º

b) let's look for the time it takes for the arrow to arrive

         x = v₀ₓ t

         t = x / v₀ cos θ

         

         t = 120 / (300 cos 0.487)

         t = 0.400 s

The deer must be at a distance of

           v = 20 mph (5280 ft / 1 mi) (1 h / 3600s) = 29.33 ft / s

           x = v t

           x = 29.33 0.4

           x = 11.73 ft

A light wave has a wavelength of 450 nanometers. What is the frequency of this light?
Zolol [24]

Answer:

Frequency, f=6.67\times 10^{14}\ Hz

Explanation:

Wavelength of a light wave is 450 nm. It is required to find the frequency of this light wave. The speed of light is given by c. So,

c=f\lambda

f is the frequency of this light

f=\dfrac{c}{\lambda}\\\\f=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{450\times 10^{-9}}\\\\f=6.67\times 10^{14}\ Hz

So, the frequency of this light is 6.67\times 10^{14}\ Hz.
