To find the horizontal distance multiple the horizontal velocity by the time. Since there is no given time it must be calculated using kinematic equation.

Y=Yo+Voyt+1/2at^2
0=.55+0+1/2(-9.8)t^2
-.55=-4.9t^2
sqrt(.55/4.9)=t
t=0.335 seconds

Horizontal distance
=0.335s*1.2m/s
=0.402 meters

What expression gives the amount of light energy (in J per photon) that is converted to other forms between the fluorescence exc
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

E = hf or E=\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}

Explanation:

The expression that gives the amount of light energy that is converted to other forms between the fluorescence excitation and emission events is given by :

E = hf

f is the frequency

E=\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}

c is the speed of light

\lambda is the wavelength

Hence, this is the required solution.

1.Wave motion that is parallel to the wave direction is described 
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

A wave is a phenomenon that travels through a material medium without any permanent effect on the medium. It can be classified as mechanical or electromagnetic waves. And the two major types are transverse and longitudinal.

From the given question;

1. Longitudinal waves e.g sound waves, waves in a spring'

2. Frequency (number of cycles per second).

3. Wavelength of the wave. Measured in meters.

4. Transverse waves e.g light waves, water waves.

5. Wave speed.

6. Electromagnetic waves e.g ultraviolet waves, X-rays etc.

7. Amplitude.

8. Hertz.

9. Rarefaction

10. Compression

A convex mirror of radius of curvature 1.6 m has an object placed at a distance of 1.0 m from it. Find the position of image and
alex41 [277]

Answer:

The image is formed at 0.44 m in front of the mirror

magnification (M) = 0.44

Explanation:

Applying, mirror formular

1/f = (1/u)+(1/v).................... Equation 1

Where f = Focal length of the convex mirror, u = object distance, v = image distance.

Using the real is positive convection,

From the question,

Given: f = -1.6/2 = -0.8 m( The focal length of a convex mirror is vitual), u = 1.0 m

Substitute these values into equation 1

-1/0.8 = (1/v)+(1/1)

Solve for v

1/v = 1.25+1

1/v = 2.25

v = 1/2.25

v = 0.44 m

Hence the image is formed at 0.44 m in front of the mirror

Magnification (M) = v/u

m = 0.44/1

m = 0.44
