Sophie [7]

Answer:

Change/ Potential

Explanation:

Work is the amount of energy required to perform an action that is for a force to cause a displacement.

From work-energy theorem, work done by body is equal to change in its kinetic energy.

Work of gravity is basically the potential energy stored in the body due to gravity. From the law of conservation of mechanical energy, increased kinetic energy comes from the change of the potential energy of the stone.

A vehicle that goes from 5m/s to 45m/s in 8s. what is its acceleration?

GaryK [48]

Answer: 5m/s^2

Explanation:

V= 45m/s

U = 5m/s

t = 8s

a =?

V = u + at

45 = 5 + 8a

8a = 45 — 5

8a = 40

a = 40 / 8

a = 5m/s^2

Why won't a very bright beam of red light impart more energy to an ejected electron than a feeble beam of violet light?

bearhunter [10]

This is related to the energy carried by photons of light the energy of each photon is proportional to the frequency of the light since red light has a lower frequency then violet light and photons of red light carry less energy than the photons of violet light as a result the red protons eject electrons that have less energy than the ejected electrons by Violet photons

3 In a television tube, an electron starting from rest experiences a force of 4.0 × 10−15 N over a distance of 50 cm. The final

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

The final speed of the electron = 2.095×10⁸ m/s

Explanation:

From newton's fundamental equation of dynamics,

F = ma ........................Equation 1

Where F = force, m = mass of the electron, a = acceleration of the electron.

making a the subject of the equation,

a = F/m.................... Equation 2

Given: F = 4.0×10⁻¹⁵ N,

Constant: m = 9.109×10⁻³¹ kg.

Substituting into equation 2

a = 4.0×10⁻¹⁵/9.109×10⁻³¹

a = 4.39×10¹⁶ m/s².

Using newton's equation of motion,

v² = u²+2as .......................... Equation 3

Where v = final velocity of the electron, u = initial velocity of the electron, a = acceleration of the electron, s = distance covered by the electron.

Given: u = 0 m/s(at rest), s = 50 cm = 0.5 m, a = 4.39×10¹⁶ m/s²

Substituting into equation 3

v² = 0² + 2(0.5)(4.39×10¹⁶)

v = √(4.39×10¹⁶)

v = 2.095×10⁸ m/s

Thus the final speed of the electron = 2.095×10⁸ m/s
