Answer:

3.97×10^−19 J

From the planks equation

E=hv

V= c/ wave length

V= 3×10^8/500×10^-9

=6×10^14

E= hv

6.63×10^-34×6×10^14

= 3.97×10^−19 J

You are trying to find out how high you have to pitch a water balloon in order for it to burst when it hits the ground. You disc

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

The balloon hit the ground with velocity -15.34 m/s

Explanation:

Lets explain how to solve the problem

You found that the best height to pitch a water balloon in order for it to

burst when it hits the ground is 12 meters.

We consider that the 12 meters is the maximum height, so the velocity

at this height is zero.

To find the velocity when the balloon hits the ground lets use the rule

v² = u² + 2gh, where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, g is

the acceleration of gravity and h is the height.

u = 0 , h = 12 m , g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values in the equation above

v² = 0 + 2(9.8)(12)

v² = 235.2

Take square root for both sides

v = ± $\sqrt{235.2}$

The velocity is downward, then it's a negative value

Then v = -15.34 m/s

The balloon hit the ground with velocity -15.34 m/s

Degger [83]

Answer:

The force required to push to stop the car is 288.67 N

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of the car, m = 1000 kg

Initial speed of the car, u = 1 m/s

The car and push on the hood at an angle of 30° below horizontal, $\theta=30^{\circ}$

Distance, d = 2 m

Let F is the force must you push to stop the car.

According work energy theorem theorem, the work done is equal to the change in kinetic energy as :

$W=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)F\times d=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)$

$v = 0$

$Fd\ cos\theta=\dfrac{1}{2}m(u^2) F=\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2}m(u^2)}{d\ cos\theta}F=\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1000\times (1)^2}{2\ cos(30)}F = -288.67 N$

The force required to push to stop the car is 288.67 N

To calibrate the calorimeter electrically, a constant voltage of 3.6 V is applied and a current of 2.6 A flows for a period of 3

hodyreva [135]

Answer : The correct option is, (c) $3.7\times 10^2J/^oC$

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the energy or heat.

Formula used :

$E=V\times I\times t$

where,

E = energy (in joules)

V = voltage (in volt)

I = current (in ampere)

t = time (in seconds)

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$E=(3.6V)\times (2.6A)\times (350s)$

$E=3276J$

Now we have to calculate the heat capacity of the calorimeter.

Formula used :

$C=\frac{E}{\Delta T}=\frac{E}{T_{final}-T_{initial}}$

where,

C = heat capacity of the calorimeter

$T_{initial}$ = initial temperature = $20.3^oC$

$T_{final}$ = final temperature = $29.1^oC$

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get:

$C=\frac{3276J}{(29.1-20.3)^oC}$

$C=372.27J/^oC=3.7\times 10^2J/^oC$

Therefore, the heat capacity of the calorimeter is, $3.7\times 10^2J/^oC$
