In quantum mechanics, particularly the wave-particle theory, it states that light behaves like a wave or a particle. For the wave behavior, its movement is measured in wavelengths while the time for each wavelength is the frequency. For the particle behavior, according to Planck, the energy of the photon (light particle) is determined as
E = hc/wavelength, where h is the Planck's constant (<span>6.626 x 10-34 J-s per particle) and c is the speed of light ( 3 x 10^8m/s)
As you can see, the energy of the photon is INVERSELY PROPORTIONAL to the wavelength with the Planck's constant as the constant of proportionality.</span>
Answer:
99.95%
Explanation:
A double pulsar system named PSR J0737-3039A/B in Puppis constellation was discovered in the year 2003. Pulsars are second most densest object in the universe after black holes and they emit radio waves at regular intervals. This pair presented a great and natural setup to test the Theory of General Relativity presented by Einstein in 1915. In this theory Einstein had presented a set of equations on how the space-time fabric will be curved because of the very dense objects such as Neutron stars. It also predicted how the gravitational waves are created because of stars orbiting each other.
A team of astrophysicists led by Michael Kramer, conducted a study on how these gravitational waves will impact the time in which the radio waves emitted by pulsars will reach Earth. The result of the study proved the theory of General Relativity to be accurate up to 99.95%.
From tables, the speed of sound at 0°C is approximately
V₁ = 331 m/s (in air)
V₃ = 5130 m/s (in iron)
Distance traveled is
d = 100 km = 10⁵ m
Time required to travel in air is
t₁ = d/V₁ = 10⁵/331 = 302.12 s
Time required to travel in iron is
t₂ = d/V₂ = 10⁵/5130 = 19.49 s
The difference in time is
302.12 - 19.49 = 282.63 s
Answer: 283 s (nearest second)
(a) 3.56 m/s
(b) 11 - 3.72a
(c) t = 5.9 s
(d) -11 m/s
For most of these problems, you're being asked the velocity of the rock as a function of t, while you've been given the position as a function of t. So first calculate the first derivative of the position function using the power rule.
y = 11t - 1.86t^2
y' = 11 - 3.72t
Now that you have the first derivative, it will give you the velocity as a function of t.
(a) Velocity after 2 seconds.
y' = 11 - 3.72t
y' = 11 - 3.72*2 = 11 - 7.44 = 3.56
So the velocity is 3.56 m/s
(b) Velocity after a seconds.
y' = 11 - 3.72t
y' = 11 - 3.72a
So the answer is 11 - 3.72a
(c) Use the quadratic formula to find the zeros for the position function y = 11t-1.86t^2. Roots are t = 0 and t = 5.913978495. The t = 0 is for the moment the rock was thrown, so the answer is t = 5.9 seconds.
(d) Plug in the value of t calculated for (c) into the velocity function, so:
y' = 11 - 3.72a
y' = 11 - 3.72*5.913978495
y' = 11 - 22
y' = -11
So the velocity is -11 m/s which makes sense since the total energy of the rock will remain constant, so it's coming down at the same speed as it was going up.
The gravitational force between two masses m₁ and m₂ is
where
G = 6.67408 x 10⁻¹¹ m³/(kg-s²), the gravitational constant
d = distance between the masses.
Given:
F = 1.5 x 10⁻¹⁰ N
m₁ = 0.50 kg
m₂ = 0.1 kg
Therefore
1.5 x 10⁻¹⁰ N = (6.67408 x 10⁻¹¹ m³/(kg-s²))*[(0.5*0.1)/(d m)²]
d² = [(6.67408x10⁻¹¹)*(0.5*0.1)]/1.5x10⁻¹⁰
= 0.0222
d = 0.1492 m = 149.2 mm
Answer: 149.2 mm
