Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

If a small piece of Styrofoam packing material is dropped from a height of 1.90 m above the ground and reaches a terminal speed after falling 0.400m, the Change in distance will be 1.90m - 0.400 = 1.50m

If it takes 5.4secs fo r the Styrofoam to reach the ground, the terminal velocity will be expressed as;

Vt = change in distance/time

Vt = 1.5m/5.4s

Vt = 0.28m/s

Note that the Styrofoam reaches its final velocity when the acceleration is zero.

To get the constant value B from the equation a = g-Bv

a = 0m/s²

g = 9.81m/s²

v = 0.28m/s

Substituting the parameters into the formula.

0 = 9.81-0.28B

-9.81 = -0.28B

Divide both sides by -0.28

B = -9.81/-0.28

B = 35.04

b) at t = 0sec, the initial terminal velocity is also zero.

Substituting v = 0 into the equation to get the acceleration.

a = g-Bv

a = g-B(0)

a = g

Hence the acceleration at t =0s is equal to the acceleration due to gravity which is 9.81m/s²

c) Given speed v = 0.150m/s

g = 9.81m/s²

B = 35.04

Substituting the given data into the equation a = g-Bv

a = 9.81-35.04(0.15)

a = 9.81 - 5.26

a = 4.55m/s²

Answer 2

Answer:

$v = 0.28 \ m/s$

$a = 9.8 m/s^2$

$a = 4.55 \ m/s^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The fall height is $h = 1.90 \ m$

The magnitude of the acceleration is $a = g -Bv$

The height at which terminal speed is attained is $h_t = 0.400 \ m$

The time taken to reach the ground from the terminal velocity height is t = 5.40 s

Generally the height which object traveled with terminal velocity is

$H = h- h_t$

=> $H = 1.90 - 0.400$

=> $H = 1.50 \ m$

Generally the terminal velocity is mathematically represented as

$v = (H)/(t)$

=> $v = (1.50)/(5.40)$

=> $v = 0.28 \ m/s$

Generally at terminal velocity , acceleration is zero so

$g -Bv = 0$

substituting

$9.8 \ m/s^2$

=> $9.8 -B (0.28) = 0$

=> $v = 35 \ m/s$

Generally at t = 0 s the velocity v = 0 (That no motion at time zero)

So from acceleration equation

$a = 9.8 -35(0)$

=> $a = 9.8 m/s^2$

Generally when the speed v = 0.150 m/s

The acceleration is

$a = 9.8 -35(0.150)$

=> $a = 4.55 \ m/s^2$

A current of 4A flows in a wire of resistance 60 ohm. calculate electrical energy consumed in 2 min.

Answers

Power dissipated = energy/second= (current)² x (resistance)

Power dissipated = energy / second = (4)² x (60) = 960 joules per second= 960 watts

Energy = (power) x (time) = (960 watts) x (2 minutes) x (60 sec/minute)

= 115,200 joules

radiation in the ultraviolet region of the electromagnetic spectrum is quite energetic. it is this radiation that causes dyes to fade and your skin to develop a sunburn. if you are bombarded with 1.00 mol of photons with a wavelength of 370. nm, what amount of energy, in kilojoules per mole of photons, are you being subjected to?

Answers

If you are bombarded with 1.00 mol of photons with a wavelength of 370 nm, you are being subjected to 322 kJ/mol of energy.

The energy of a photon is given by the equation:

E = hc/λ

where:

h = Planck's constant = 6.626 x $10^{-34$ J s

c = speed of light = 2.998 x $10^8$ m/s

λ = wavelength of the radiation

To find the energy of a mole of photons, we need to multiply the energy of a single photon by Avogadro's number (6.022 x $10^{23$ ).

First, we need to convert the wavelength of the radiation from nanometers to meters:

370 nm = 370 x $10^{-9$ m

Now, we can use the equation to calculate the energy of a single photon:

E = hc/λ

E = (6.626 x $10^{-34$ J s) x (2.998 x $10^8$ m/s) / (370 x $10^{-9$ m)

E = 5.35 x $10^{-19$ J

Next, we can calculate the energy of a mole of photons:

(5.35 x $10^{-19$ J/photon) x (6.022 x $10^{23$ photons/mol) = 3.22 x $10^5$ J/mol

Finally, we can convert the energy to kilojoules per mole of photons:

3.22 x $10^5$ J/mol = 322 kJ/mol
