Answer:

it could cause skin burns and acute radiation syndrome (“radiation sickness"). It can also result in long-term health effects such as cancer and cardiovascular disease*

*Cardiovascular disease affects the heart or blood vessels. It's usually associated with a build-up of fatty deposits inside the arteries and an increased risk of blood clots.

When monochromatic light illuminates a grating with 7000 lines per centimeter, its second order maximum is at 62.4°. What is the
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

633nm

Explanation:

Given the following :

Number of lines per centimeter(N) = 7000

Angle θ = 62.4°

Order (n) = 2

If grating element = d

Wavelength (λ) = (d* SinΘ) / 2

If number of lines = 7000 per cm

Converting to metre :

100 cm = 1m

7000 lines per 1 cm

Number of lines per m:

7000 lines * 100 = 700,000 lines per meter

Recall :

d = reciprocal of N

d = 1 / 700,000

d = 0.00000142857

Substituting into (λ) = (d* SinΘ) / 2

λ = (0.00000142857 * Sin 62.4°) / 2

λ = 0.00000126600 / 2

λ = 0.000000633002

λ = 0.000000633

λ = 633 × 10^-9 m = 633nm

A 72.0-kg object hits the ground at a velocity of 79.0 m/s. Neglecting air resistance, which relationship allows you to calculat
kondaur [170]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

B. (PE)beginning = (KE)end

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

  • Mass of an object is 72.0 kg
  • Velocity of the body before it hits the ground is 79.0 m/s

We are required to determine the relationship between the potential energy and kinetic energy before the fall.

  • When an object is at the highest point, it has maximum potential energy and minimum kinetic energy.
  • This is because potential energy is directly proportional to the height of an object above the earth's surface.
  • On the other hand, when an object attains the highest speed it has maximum kinetic energy and minimum kinetic energy.

In this case;

  • The velocity of the object when hitting the ground is maximum and thus the object will have maxim,um kinetic energy.
  • As the object falls towards the ground the potential energy is being converted to kinetic energy.
  • Therefore, the potential energy at the beginning will be equal to the kinetic energy at the end when the object is on the ground.
  • We can therefore, conclude that, (PE)beginning = (KE)end

a freight train travels at v=60(1-e^-t) ft/s, where t is the elapsed time in seconds. Determine the distance traeled in tree sec
lesantik [10]

Answer

given,

v = 60(1-e^{-t})\ ft/s

t = 3 s

we know,

v = \dfrac{dx}{dt}

a = \dfrac{dv}{dt}

position of the particle

dx = v dt

integrating both side

\int dx =\int 60(1-e^{-t}) dt

x = 60 t + 60 e^{-t}

Position of the particle at t= 3 s

x = 60\times 3+ 60 e^{-3}

 x = 182.98 ft

Distance traveled by the particle in 3 s is equal to 182.98 ft

now, particle’s acceleration

a = \dfrac{dv}{dt}

a = \dfrac{d}{dt}60(1-e^{-t})

  a = 60 e^{-t}

at t= 3 s

  a = 60 e^{-3}

    a = 2.98 ft/s²

acceleration of the particle is equal to 2.98 ft/s²

1. A child sitting 1.2 m from the center of a merry-go-round moves with a speed of 1.1 m/s.
Ne4ueva [31]

Answers:

A) 1m/s^{2}

B) 22. 5 N

Explanation:

A) Since this situation is related to uniform circular motion, the centripetal acceleration a_{C} of the child is calculated by:

a_{C}=\frac{V^{2}}{r}

Where:

V=1.1 m/s is the speed

r=1.2 m is the child's distane to the center (the radius)

Hence:

a_{C}=\frac{(1.1 m/s)^{2}}{1.2 m}

a_{C}=1.008 m/s^{2} \approx 1 m/s^{2}

B) Knowing th centripetal acceleration and the mass m=22. 5 kg of the child, we can calculate the net horizontal force F by:

F=m a_{C}

F=(22. 5 kg)(1 m/s^{2})

F=22. 5 N
