A 5.22×104 kg railroad car moves on frictionless horizontal rails until it hits a horizontal spring stopper with a force constan

In-s [12.5K]

To solve this problem we will apply the principles of conservation of energy, for which we have to preserve the initial kinetic energy as elastic potential energy at the end of the movement. If said equality is maintained then we can affirm that,

$\text{Initial Energy}=\text{Final Energy}$

$\frac{1}{2} mv^2=\frac{1}{2} kx^2$

Here,

m = mass

k = Spring constant

x = Displacement

v = Velocity

Rearranging to find the velocity,

$mv^2 = kx^2$

$v^2 = \frac{kx^2}{m}$

$v = \sqrt{\frac{kx^2}{m}}$

Our values are,

$m = 5.22*10^4kg$

$k = 4.58*10^5N/m$

$x = 32cm = 0.32m$

Replacing our values we have,

$v = \sqrt{\frac{(4.58*10^5)(5.22*10^4)}{0.32}}$

$v = 2.733*10^5m/s$

Therefore the velocity is $2.733*10^5m/s$

Which of the following statements is true about magnetic fields.

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

The earth's magnetic field protects the surface from strong electrical currents coming from the sun

Explanation:

The Earth's magnetic field called the “magnetosphere” – protects our atmosphere from the “solar wind.” That's the constant stream of charged particles flowing outward from the sun. When the magnetosphere shields the Earth from these solar particles, they get funneled toward the polar regions of our atmosphere.

The Earth's magnetic field serves to deflect most of the solar wind, whose charged particles would otherwise strip away the ozone layer that protects the Earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation. One stripping mechanism is for gas to be caught in bubbles of magnetic field, which are ripped off by solar winds.

Lasers are now used in eye surgery. Given the wavelength of a certain laser is 514 nm and the power of the laser is 1.1 W, how m

Leno4ka [110]

Answer: $1.593*10^{17} photons$ released if the laser is used 0.056 s during the surgery

Explanation:

First, you have to calculate the energy of each photon according to Einstein's theoty, given by:

$E =\frac{hc}{\lambda}$

Where $\lambda$ is the wavelength, $h$ is the Planck's constant and $h$ is the speed of light

$h = 6.626*10^{-34} \frac{m^{2} kg }{s}$ -> Planck's constant

$c = 3*10^{8} \frac{m}{s}$ -> Speed of light

So, replacing in the equation:

$E =\frac{ 6.626*10^{-34} \frac{m^{2} kg }{s}*3*10^{8} \frac{m}{s}}{514*10^-9 m}$

Then, the energy of each released photon by the laser is:

$E = 3.867*10^{-19} \frac{J}{photons}$

After, you do the inverse of the energy per phothon and as a result, you will have the number of photons in a Joule of energy:

$\frac{1}{3.867*10^{-19}} = 2.586*10^{18} \frac{photons}{J}$

The power of the laser is 1.1 W, or 1.1 J/s, that means that you can calculate how many photons the laser realease every second:

$2.586*10^{18}\frac{photons}{J} * 1.1 \frac{J}{s} = 2.844*10^{18} \frac{photons}{s}$

And by doing a simple rule of three, if $2.844*10^{18} photons$ are released every second, then in 0.056 s:

$0.056 s*2.844*10^{18} \frac{photons}{s} = 1.593*10^{17} photons$ are released during the surgery
