Answer:

Explanation:

n = 3.00e8/2.22e8 = 1.35

1.00sin24.5 = 1.35sinθ

θ = 17.9°

After landing on an unfamiliar planet, a space explorer constructs a simple pendulum of length 54.0 cm. The explorer finds that

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

g = 11.2 m/s²

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the time period of the pendulum:

$T = \frac{t}{n}$

where,

T = Time period = ?

t = time taken = 135 s

n = no. of swings in given time = 98

Therefore,

$T = \frac{135\ s}{98}$

T = 1.38 s

Now, we utilize the second formula for the time period of the simple pendulum, given as follows:

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}$

where,

l = length of pendulum = 54 cm = 0.54 m

g = acceleration due to gravity on the planet = ?

Therefore,

$(1.38\ s)^2 = 4\pi^2(\frac{0.54\ m}{g} )\\\\g = \frac{4\pi^2(0.54\ m)}{(1.38\ s)^2}$

<u>g = 11.2 m/s²</u>

How many neutrons are contained in 2 kg? Mass of one neutron is 1.67x10-27 kg.

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

1.2 × 10^27 neutrons

Explanation:

If one neutron = 1.67 × 10^-27 kg

then in 2kg...the number of neutrons

; 2 ÷ 1.67 × 10^-27

There are.... 1.2 × 10^27 neutrons

A flea jumps straight up to a maximum height of 0.400 m . what is its initial velocity v0 as it leaves the ground?

timama [110]

For an object`s motion, the Kinematic equation is,

$v^2=v_{0}^2+2ah$

Here, v is the final velocity and h is stands for the height of the object and a is the acceleration of the object.

As according to question,

$v=0m/s,a=g-9.8 m/s^2$ and $h = 0.400 m$

Thus, putting these values in above equation, we get

$0= v_{0}^2 -2gh$

or

$v_{0} =\sqrt{2 \times 9.8 \times 0.400 }$

$v_{0} = 2.8 m/s$

Therefore, initial velocity is 2.8 m/s
