The location of the point F that partitions a line segment from D to E (\overline{DE}), that goes from <u>negative 4</u> to <u>positive 5,</u> into a 5:6 ratio is fifteen halves (option 4).  

We need to calculate the segment of the line DE to find the location of point F.

Since point D is located at <u>negative -4</u> and point E is at <u>positive 5</u>, we have:

\overline{DE} = E - D = 5 - (-4) = 9

Hence, the segment of the line DE (\overline{DE}) is 9.

Knowing that point F partitions the line segment from D to E (\overline{DE}) into a <u>5:6 ratio</u>, its location would be:

F = \frac{5}{6}\overline{DE} = \frac{5}{6}9 = 5*\frac{3}{2} = \frac{15}{2}  

Therefore, the location of point F is fifteen halves (option 4).

Examine the spectra of the four unknown substances shown below. What can you conclude?
oksian1 [2.3K]
Line spectra are obtained when individual elements are heated using a high-voltage electrical discharge. This heating causes excitation of the element and a subsequent emission of distinct lines of colored light are obtained. Each element has its own unique emission line spectrum; therefore, if any of the tested substances were the same, their spectra would match. However, this is not the case so none of the substances are the same.

A particle (m = 4.3 × 10^-28 kg) starting from rest, experiences an acceleration of 2.4 × 10^7 m/s^2 for 5.0 s. What is its de B
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Wavelength, \lambda=1.28\times 10^{-14}\ m

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the particle, m=4.3\times 10^{-28}\ kg

Acceleration of the particle, a=2.4\times 10^7\ m/s^2

Time, t = 5 s

It starts from rest, u = 0

The De Broglie wavelength is given by :

\lambda=\dfrac{h}{mv}

v = a × t

\lambda=\dfrac{h}{mat}

\lambda=\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-34}}{4.3\times 10^{-28}\times 2.4\times 10^7\times 5}

\lambda=1.28\times 10^{-14}\ m

Hence, this is the required solution.
