Explanation:

Given

Usain Bolt ran the race with a length [tex]200\ m[/tex]

Time is taken to complete it [tex]t=19.19\ s[/tex]

We know, [tex]\text{Distance}=\text{speed}\times \text{time}[/tex]

Insert the values

[tex]\Rightarrow 200=v\times 19.19\\\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{200}{19.19}\\\\\Rightarrow v=10.42\ m/s[/tex]

So, the speed of Usain Bolt is [tex]10.42\ m/s[/tex]

Answers

C) South

As we know that, north is considered as negative, and south as positive. Now, the charge on particle is negative; so, when we will release it, it will move towards the south.

In the scenario where the negatively charged particle is placed in a uniform electric field, the direction will be C. South.

What is an electric field?

It should be noted that an electric field simply means the physical field which surrounds electrically charged particles.

Since the negatively charged particle is placed in a uniform electric field directed from South to North, the direction that the particle move after it is released is South.

In a physics lab, Ray Zuvlite arranges two mirrors with a right angle orientation as shown. Ray then directs a laser line at one of the mirrors. The light reflects off both mirrors as shown. If angle A is 25°, determine the what is the angle measure of angles B, C, and D?

Answers

Answer:

B = 25°

C = 65°

D = 25°

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The orientation of the two mirrors = At right angle to each other

The laser light is directed at one of the mirror

The measure of angle, A = 25°

The measures of angle B, C, and D are found as follows;

We have;

∠A = ∠B = 25°, by angle of incidence equals angle of reflection

∠B = 25°

∠B + ∠C = 90° by sum of the acute angles of a right triangle

25° + ∠C = 90°

∴ ∠C = 90° - 25° = 65°

∠C = 65°

∠E = ∠C = 65° by angle of incidence equals angle of reflection

∴ ∠E = 65°

Line 'L' is perpendicular to the second mirror, therefore, the angle between line 'L' and the second mirror = 90° = ∠E + ∠D

∠E + ∠D = 90°,  by angle sum property

Therefore;

65° + ∠D = 90°

∴ ∠D = 90° - 65° = 25°

∠D = 25°

Answers

Answer:

actual frequency produced by the source of sound

Explanation:

According to Oxford dictionary; Doppler effect is"an increase (or decrease) in the frequency of sound, light, or other waves as the source and observer move towards (or away from) each other."

The actual change in frequency of a wave is called the Doppler shift. The Doppler shift is caused by a constant relative motion between the source of the wave and the observer. This leads to a change in the observed frequency of the wave.

A beam strikes an irregular mirror and is reflected as shown below. The angle formed by the incoming beam and the reflected beam is 10 degrees. What is the angle of the mirror's surface (measured against vertical) at the location where the beam strikes the mirror?

A. The mirror's surface is angled 5 degrees upward where the laser strikes it.

B. The mirror's surface is angled 5 degrees downward where the laser strikes it.

C. The mirror's surface is angled 10 degrees upward where the laser strikes it.

D. The mirror's surface is angled 10 degrees downward where the laser strikes it.

Answers

Answer:

the correct answer is B

Explanation:

The law of reflection states that the angles of incidence and reflection on a surface are the same, the two rays and the normal are in the same part of the surface.

In this exercise indicate that the angle between the incident and reflected ray is 10, therefore the angle with respect to the normal that is a vertical line at the point of contact of the ray must be 5

Consequently the correct answer is B

b.) chair rolls backwards
c.) chair rolls forwards

Answer:

B - Person A's chair rolls backwards.

Explanation:

This can be seen simply through the Conservation of Momentum. When the ball is thrown to be, the ball's momentum(+m) is transfererd to B, so B's chair moves forward(think about it - it makes sense, doesn't it?), meaning A's chair moves backwards.

A nucleus with mass number 229 emits a 3.443 MeV alpha particle. Calculate the disintegration energy Q for this process, taking the recoil energy of the residual nucleus into account.

3.504 MeV

Explanation:

Given that;[tex]\frac{A}{Z} X ---->\frac{A-4}{Z-2} Y +\alpha + Q[/tex]

Also;

[tex]Q= KE_{\alpha } (M_{Y} + M_{\alpha } /M_{Y[/tex])

Mass number of X = 229

Mass number of Y = 225

Kinetic energy of alpha particles = 3.443 MeV

Q = 3.443 MeV (225 + 4/225)

Q= 3.504 MeV

An object is to the left of a convex mirror. Describe the two rays needed to indicate the location and height of the image. Additionally, state what side of the mirror the image is on and whether it is real or virtual.

Answers

Answer:

1) a ray parallel to the optical axis that after passing through the lens passes through the focal length

2) a ray that passes through the center of curvature, this ray does not have any deviation

real image   d_{objet} > f

Explanation:

In geometric optics, you can find the position of the image by geometric method, we draw two rays

1) a ray parallel to the optical axis that after passing through the lens passes through the focal length

2) a ray that passes through the center of curvature, this ray does not have any deviation

3) a ray that passes through the focal length and when passing the lens comes out horizontally

The interceptor point is where the image is

To determine if the image is real or virtual, when the object is at a greater distance than the focal length, the image is real and when it is at a shorter distance, the image is virtual.

The virtual image is formed on the same side as the object

Explanation:

Visible light and X-rays are electromagnetism waves with the same origin betray the atomic, but the energy of transioin wings is different,

         E = h (v_f - v₀)

With this equation we see that the energy is proportional to the difference between the atomic levels where the ranscion occurs, the X-rays the transition involves deep levels n = 1 or 2 for which the energy of the emitted photon is very high.

The visible radiation the transition is between levels closer so that the emitted light has a lower frequency and is in the range of the visibly

Consequently, the difference between X-rays and visible radiation is in the energy of each foton.

A 330.-ohm resistor is connected to a 5.00-volt battery. What is the current through the resistor?

Answers

Answer:

From Ohms Law

V=IR

V=5volts

R=33.0hms

I=V/R

I= 5/330

=0.0152A

The current flowing through the cross-section of the resistor is 0.0152A.

Given the data in the question;

Resistance; [tex]R = 330ohm[/tex]Voltage; [tex]V = 5.00V[/tex]Current; [tex]I = \ ?[/tex]

Ohm's law

Ohm's law states that "the current flowing through the cross-section of a conductor is directly proportional to the voltage across it".

It is expressed as;

[tex]V = IR[/tex]

Where V is voltage, I is current and R is the Resistance.

To determine the current flowing through the resistor, we substitute our given values into the expression above.

[tex]V = IR\\\\I = \frac{V}{R}\\ \\I = \frac{5.00V}{330\ Ohm} \\\\I = 0.0152A[/tex]

Therefore, the current flowing through the cross-section of the resistor is 0.0152A.
