A firefly glows by the direct conversion of chemical energy to light. The light emitted by a firefly has peak intensity at a wavelength of 550 nm. Part A What is the minimum chemical energy, in eV, required to generate each photon
Answer:
Explanation:
The energy of a photon is given by the Planck relation
E = h f
the speed of light is related to wavelength and frequency
c = λ f
f- c /λ
we substitute
E = h c /λ
let's calculate
E = 6.63 10-34 3 10⁸ / 550 10-9
E = 3.616 10-19 J
let's reduce to eV
E = 3.616 10-19 J (1 eV / 1.6 10-19)
E = 2.26 eV
an inclined plane rises to a height of 2m over a distance of 6m calculate the angle of the slope
Answer:
Explanation:
Slope is rise over run and, consequently, it is also the tangent ratio. the side measuring 2 is the height of the right triangle that is formed by the inclined plane (the hypotenuse), the height, and the base (the ground or surface that the plane is sitting on). If we use the tangent ratio,
[tex]tan\theta=\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3}[/tex] so
[tex]tan^{-1}(\frac{1}{3})=\theta[/tex] so
θ = 18.4 which is also the angle that makes that slope.
1. What did you observe about the magnitudes of the forces on the two charges? Were they the same or different? Does your answer depend on whether the charges were of the same magnitude or different? How does this relate to Newton’s 3rd law?
Answer:
Following are the solution to the given question:
Explanation:
Its strength from both charges is equivalent or identical. The power is equal. And it is passed down
[tex]F=\frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}[/tex]
Therefore, the extent doesn't rely on the fact that charges are the same or different. Newton's third law complies with Electrostatic Charges due to a couple of charges. They are similar in magnitude, and they're in the other way.

Explanation:
A truck is driving over a scale at a weight station. When the front wheels drive over the scale, the scale reads 5800 N. When the rear wheels drive over the scale, it reads 6500 N. The distance between the front and rear wheels is 3.20 m Determine the distance between the front wheels and the truck's center of gravity.
Answer:
[tex]x_2=1.60m[/tex]
Explanation:
From the Question We are told that
Initial Force [tex]F_1=5800N[/tex]
Final Force [tex]F_2=6500N[/tex]
Distance between the front and rear wheels \triangle x=3.20 m
Since
[tex]\triangle x=3.20 m[/tex]
Therefore
[tex]x_1+x_2=3.20[/tex]
[tex]x_1=3.20-x_2[/tex]
Generally the equation for The center of mass is at x_2 is mathematically
given by
[tex]x_2 =\frac{(F_1x_1+F_2x_2)}{(F_1+F_2)}[/tex]
[tex]x_2=3.20F_1-\frac{x_2F_1+F_2x_2}{(F_1+F_2)}[/tex]
[tex]2*F_1*x_2 =3.20F_1[/tex]
[tex]x_2=1.60m[/tex]
Center of gravity of a body is the sum of its moments divided by the overall weight of the object. The distance between the front wheels and the truck's center of gravity is 1.6 meters.
Given-
Scale reading value when the front wheels drive over the scale [tex]m_{1}[/tex] is 5800 N.
Scale reading value when the rear wheels drive over the scale [tex]m_{2}[/tex] is 6500 N
Distance between the front and rear wheel [tex]\bigtriangleup x[/tex] is 3.20 meters.
Let, the distance between the front wheels and the truck's center of gravity is [tex]x_{2}[/tex].
Since sum of the distance between front wheel to truck's center of gravity [tex]x_{1}[/tex], and rear wheel to truck's center of gravity [tex]x_{2}[/tex], is equal to the distance between the front and rear wheel [tex]\bigtriangleup x[/tex]. Therefore,
[tex]\bigtriangleup x=x_{1} +x_{2}[/tex]
[tex]3.20=x_{1} +x_{2}[/tex]
[tex]x_{1} =3.20-x_{2}[/tex]
For the distance between the front wheels and the truck's center of gravity is the formula of center of gravity can be written as,
[tex]x_{2} =\dfrac{m_{1}x_{1}+m_{2} x_{2} }{m_{1} +m_{2} }[/tex]
[tex]x_{2} =\dfrac{5800\times (3.20- x_{2})+6500\times x_{2} }{5800 +6500 }[/tex]
[tex]1230 x_{2} ={18560-5800 x_{2}+6500 x_{2} }[/tex]
[tex]x_{2}= 1.6[/tex]
Hence, the distance between the front wheels and the truck's center of gravity is 1.6 meters.

If you left a glass fiber-optic cable unshielded by any plastic covering, should the light still be able to travel through the cable?
1. Yes
2. No
Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
As a 2.0-kg object moves from (4.4 i + 5j) m to ( 11.6 i - 2j) m, the constant resultant force
acting on it is equal to (41 - 9j) N. If the speed of the object at the initial position is 4.0 m/s,
what is its kinetic energy at its final position?
Answer:
Answer:
v_f = 10.38 m / s
Explanation:
For this exercise we can use the relationship between work and kinetic energy
W = ΔK
note that the two quantities are scalars
Work is defined by the relation
W = F. Δx
the bold are vectors. The displacement is
Δx = r_f -r₀
Δx = (11.6 i - 2j) - (4.4 i + 5j)
Δx = (7.2 i - 7 j) m
W = (4 i - 9j). (7.2 i - 7 j)
remember that the dot product
i.i = j.j = 1
i.j = 0
W = 4 7.2 + 9 7
W = 91.8 J
the initial kinetic energy is
Ko = ½ m vo²
Ko = ½ 2.0 4.0²
Ko = 16 J
we substitute in the initial equation
W = K_f - K₀
K_f = W + K₀
½ m v_f² = W + K₀
v_f² = 2 / m (W + K₀)
v_f² = 2/2 (91.8 + 16)
v_f = √107.8
v_f = 10.38 m / s

At a distance of 8 m, the sound intensity of one speaker is 66 dB. If we were to place 3 speakers in a circle of radius 8 m, what woud the sound intensity level be at the center of the circle
Answer:
dβ = 70. 77 dβ
Explanation:
The intensity of sound in decibels is
dβ = 10 log I/I₀
let's look for the intensity of this signal
I / I₀ = 10 dβ/10
I / I₀ = 3.981 10⁶
the threshold intensity of sound for humans is I₀ = 1 10⁻¹² W / m²
I = 3.981 10 ⁶ 1 10⁻¹²
I = 3,981 10⁻⁶ W / m²
It is indicated that 3 cornets are placed in the circle, for which total intensity is
I_total - 3 I
I_total = 3 3,981 10⁻⁶
I_total = 11,943 10⁻⁶ W / m²
let's reduce to decibels
dβ = 10 log (11,943 10⁻⁶/1 10⁻¹²)
dβ = 10 7.077
dβ = 70. 77 dβ

A tortoise and hare start from rest and have a race. As the race begins, both accelerate forward. The hare accelerates uniformly at a rate of 1.2 m/s2 for 4.5 seconds. It then continues at a constant speed for 12.1 seconds, before getting tired and slowing down with constant acceleration coming to rest 87 meters from where it started. The tortoise accelerates uniformly for the entire distance, finally catching the hare just as the hare comes to a stop. 1) How fast is the hare going 3.6 seconds after it starts
Answer:
[tex]v=4.32m/s[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Accelerates at rate of [tex]1.2m/s^2[/tex]
Acceleration time [tex]t_a=4.5secs[/tex]
Velocity time 1 [tex]t_{v1}=12.1secs[/tex]
Deceleration distance [tex]d_a=87meters[/tex]
Generally the Newton's equation for motion is mathematically given by

[tex]v=4.32m/s[/tex]
A man is pushing a box of weight W with a forward force of magnitude F. The box
moves forward with a constant speed. What is the magnitude f of the friction force?
Answer:
The magnitude of the friction force is also F.
Explanation:
By the second Newton's law, we know that:
F = m*a
Net force is equal to mass times acceleration.
Here, we know that the box moves with constant speed, thus, the box has no acceleration, then the net force applied to the box is zero.
Also, remember that the friction force is given by:
[tex]F_f = -\mu*W[/tex]
Where mu is the coefficient of friction, and this force opposes to the direction of motion (that coincides with the direction of our forward force, that is why this has a negative sign)
The net force will be equal to the sum of our two horizontal forces (as the weight is already canceled by the normal force)
[tex]F_{total} = F + F_f[/tex]
And this is equal to zero, because we know that the box is non-accelerated.
Then we must have that:
[tex]F_f = -F[/tex]
Then we can conclude that the magnitude of the friction force is F.
A model plane has a mass of 0.75 kg and is flying 12 m above the ground
with a speed of 18 m/s. What is the total mechanical energy of the plane?
The acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s2.
Answer:
Option C. 210 J.
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Mass (m) = 0.75 Kg
Height (h) = 12 m
Velocity (v) = 18 m/s
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Total Mechanical energy (ME) =?
Next, we shall determine the potential energy of the plane. This can be obtained as follow:
Mass (m) = 0.75 Kg
Height (h) = 12 m
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Potential energy (PE) =?
PE = mgh
PE = 0.75 × 9.8 × 12
PE = 88.2 J
Next, we shall determine the kinetic energy of the plane. This can be obtained as follow:
Mass (m) = 0.75 Kg
Velocity (v) = 18 m/s
Kinetic energy (KE) =?
KE = ½mv²
KE = ½ × 0.75 × 18²
KE = ½ × 0.75 × 324
KE = 121.5 J
Finally, we shall determine the total mechanical energy of the plane. This can be obtained as follow:
Potential energy (PE) = 88.2 J
Kinetic energy (KE) = 121.5 J
Total Mechanical energy (ME) =?
ME = PE + KE
ME = 88.2 + 121.5
ME = 209.7 J
ME ≈ 210 J
Therefore, the total mechanical energy of the plane is 210 J.

A 45.00 kg person in a 43.00 kg cart is coasting with a speed of 19 m/s before it goes up a hill.Assuming there is no friction, what is the maximum vertical height the person in the cart can reach?
Answer:
the maximum vertical height the person in the cart can reach is 18.42 m
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the person, m₁ = 45 kg
mass of the cart, m₂ = 43 kg
velocity of the system, v = 19 m/s
let the maximum vertical height reached = h
Apply the principle of conservation mechanical energy;
[tex]P.E = K.E\\\\mgh_{max} = \frac{1}{2} mv^2_{max}\\\\gh_{max} = \frac{1}{2} v^2_{max}\\\\h_{max} = \frac{v_{max}^2}{2g} \\\\h_{max} = \frac{19^2}{2\times 9.8} \\\\h_{max} = 18.42 \ m[/tex]
Therefore, the maximum vertical height the person in the cart can reach is 18.42 m

[tex]v^2 = \frac{4(m_1 - m_2)gh}{(2m_1 + 2m_2 + M)}v[/tex]

You instead want to make sure the battery for your string of lights will last as long as possible. A battery will last longer if it powers a circuit with low current. How could you hook up a battery and 2 light bulbs so the least amount of current flows through the battery? Use the measurement tools in the simulation to check your design.
Answer:
Put the 2 light bulbs in series.
Explanation:
The resistance will be the greatest if you hook up the light bulb in series, and since resistance and current are inversely proportional, the current will be the least as well.

A rocket moving around the earth at height "H", If the gravitational acceleration "g1" at height
His of gravitational acceleration 'g at earth surface. If Earth radius is "R", find "H"
using R
Answer:
At the earth's surface g = G M / R^2 where G is the gravitational constant
at H g1 = G M / (R + H)^2 using Gauss' theorem for enclosed mass
g1 = G M / (R^2 + 2 R H) ignoring H^2 as it is small compared to R^2
g / g1 = (R^2 + 2 R H) / R^2 = 1 + 2 R H
g = g1 + 2 R H g1
g1 - g = - 2 R H or H = (g1 - g) / 2 R

A projectile is fired with an initial velocity of 120 meters per second at an unknown angle above the horizontal. If the projectile's speed at the top of the trajectory is 45 meters per second, what is the unknown angle
Answer:
[tex]68.0^{\circ}[/tex]
Explanation:
A projectile's vertical velocity at the top of its flight path must be zero, therefore the speed at the top of the trajectory must be referring to the object's horizontal velocity. Since there are exactly zero horizontal forces acting on the object, its horizontal velocity will remain the exact same throughout the entire launch. Thus, the horizontal component of the initial launch must be 45 meters per second, and we have the following equation using basic trigonometry for a right triangle:
Let [tex]\theta[/tex] be the unknown angle above the horizontal.
[tex]\cos \theta=\frac{45}{120},\\\theta=\arccos(\frac{45}{120})=67.97568716^{\circ}\approx \boxed{68.0^{\circ}}[/tex]

A 32.7-N frictional force opposes the motion of the cart. (a) What is the magnitude of the force that the shopper exerts? Determine the work done by (b) the pushing force, (c) the frictional force, and (d) the gravitational force.
Answer:
a) F = 35.7 N, b) W = 846.7 J, c) W = - 846.9 J, d) W=0
Explanation:
a) For this exercise let's use Newton's second law, let's set a reference frame with the x-axis horizontally
let's break down the pushing force.
cos (-23,7) = Fₓ / F
sin (-237) = F_y / F
Fₓ = F cos 23.7 = F 0.916
F_y = F sin (-23.7) = - F 0.402
Y axis
N- W - F_y = 0
N = W + F 0.402
X axis
Fₓ - fr = 0
F 0.916 = fr
F = fr / 0.916
F = 32.7 / 0.916
F = 35.7 N
It is asked to calculate several jobs
b) the work of the pushing force
W = fx x
W = 35.7 cos 23.7 25.9
W = 846.7 J
c) friction force work
W = F x cos tea
friction force opposes movement
W = - fr x
W = - 32.7 25.9
W = - 846.9 J
d) The work of the force would gravitate, as the displacement and the force of gravity are at 90º, the work is zero
W = 0
