I just figured this out now.
First you would use the formula
Ephoton= hc/λ and substitute in the value's of plank's constant, the speed of light in a vaccum and the wavelength which will give you the energy in joules. Then you go to the reference table and solve for the energy used between the different levels for Mercury making sure to convert electron volts to jules. In the end the correct answer should be energy level D.

A football is kicked into the air from an initial height of 4 feet. The height, in feet, of the football above the ground is giv
kakasveta [241]

Answer: 0.5 seconds or 2.625 seconds

Explanation:

At t = 0, The ball is 4 ft above the ground.

The height of the football varies with time in the following way:

s(t) = -16 t² + 50 t + 4

we need to find the time in which the height would of the football would be 25 ft:

⇒25 = -16 t² + 50 t + 4

we need to solve the quadratic equation:

⇒ 16 t² - 50 t + 21 = 0

t = \frac{50 \pm \sqrt{50^2-4\times 16\times 21}}{2\times16}

⇒ t = 0.5 s or 2.625 s

Therefore, at t = 0.5 s or 2.625 s, the football would be 25 ft above the ground.

Zoe is setting up a track for a toy car. The track has a ramp that is 32° above horizontal. If Zoe wants the car to travel as a
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Not enough information.

IF we ASSUME she wants the car to be at LAUNCH LEVEL after 1 second of flight.

THEN

The highest point will have zero vertical velocity and will have taken ½ second to get there. This means that the initial vertical velocity was

v = gt

vy₀ = 9.8(0.5)

vy₀ = 4.9 m/s

vsinθ = vy₀

v = vy₀/sinθ

v = 4.9/sin32

v = 9.2466...

v = 9.2 m/s

A light wave travels through space at a speed of 3 x 108 m/s. If the wavelength of some light wave is 2 x10-3 m, what is the fre
kifflom [539]

Here is your answer

b) \huge 1.5× {10}^{11} Hz

REASON :

We know that

Velocity= Frequency× Wavelength

So,

Frequency= Velocity/wavelength

Here,

V= 3× 10^8 m/s

Wavelength= 2×10^-3 m

Hence,

Frequency= 3×10^8/2×10^-3

= 3/2 × 10^11

= 1.5× 10^11 Hz

I have a picture of the question I need help with,
eduard

Given:

The initial velocity of the object, v=30 m/s

a_t=0

a_c≠0

The time period is Δt.

To find:

The right conclusion among the given choices.

Explanation:

a_t represents the tangential accleration on the object and a_c represents the centripetal acceleration on the object.

The centripetal acceleration is the acceleration that keeps the object in its circular path. The centripetal force only changes the direction of the velocity and not the magnitude.

Thus the magnitude of the velocity of the object remains the same after a time interval of Δt. But the direction of the velocity of the object will be changed and will be unknown after Δt seconds.

Final answer:

Thus the object will be traveling at 30 m/s in some unknown direction.

Therefore, the correct answer is option a.

To calculate the change in kinetic energy, you must know the force as a function of _______. The work done by the force causes t
QveST [7]

Answer:

(c) position

Explanation:

From the work-energy theorem, the workdone by a force on a body causes a change in kinetic energy of the body.

But, remember that the work done (W) by a force (F) on a body is the product of the force and the distance d, moved by the body caused by the force. i.e

W = F x d

This distance is a measure of the position of the body at a given instance.

Therefore, the work done is given by the force as a function of distance (or position).
