Explanation:

Complete question

The slope of a graph of photon energy versus photon frequency represents

A) Planck’s constant

B) the mass of a photon

C) the speed of light

D) the speed of light squared

Solution

It is well known that when an electron jumps from one energy level (i.e higher energy level) to another energy level (i.e lower energy level), energy is released. This can be presented mathematically as

$f= \frac{E_2 - E_1}{h} \\$

Where $E_2 , E_1$ is the energy of higher and lower energy levels respectively

and h is the Planck’s constant.

If the energy and frequency are plotted in a curve, then the slope of this curve will represents the Planck’s constant

Thus, option A is correct

The primary of a step-up transformer is connected across the terminals of a standard wall socket, and resistor 1 with a resistan

alexira [117]

The turns ratio is the factor that determines voltage andcurrent. In order to have the same current across the resistorin the primary as the resistor in the secondary, then:--N(p) = Primary turnsN(s) = Secondary turnsR(2) = Primary resistorR(1) = Secondary resistor--R(2)/R(1) = N(p)/N(s)R(2) = R(1)*(N(p)/N(s))--If arbitrary values are plugged in, you will see that this step up transformer will require 2x the resistance required in the secondary, R(1), to obtain the same current. Thus R(2) will be 1/2 the value of R(1). This is due to the stepped up voltage in the secondary.

At room temperature, a typical person loses energy to the surroundings at the rate of 62 W. If this energy loss has to be made u

Alex_Xolod [135]

To solve this problem it is necessary to use the given proportions of power and energy, as well as the energy conversion factor in Jules to Calories.

The power is defined as the amount of energy lost per second and whose unit is Watt. Therefore the energy loss rate given in seconds was

$P = \frac{E}{t} \rightarrow E= Energy, t = time$

$P = 62W = 62 \frac{J}{s}$

The rate of energy loss per day would then be,

$P = 62\frac{J}{s} (\frac{86400s}{1day})$

$P = 5356800 \frac{J}{day}$

That is to say that Energy in Jules per lost day is 5356800J

By definition we know that $1KCal = 4.184*10^{6}J$

In this way the energy in Cal is,

$E = 5356800J \frac{1KCal}{4.184*10^{6}J}$

$E = 1279.694 KCal$

The number of kilocalories (food calories) must be 1279.694 KCal

A solenoid with 3,000.0 turns is 70.0 cm long. If its self-inductance is 25.0 mH, what is its radius? (The value of μ0 is 4π x 1

nevsk [136]

Answer:

A. 2.2*10^-2m

Explanation:

Using

Area = length x L/ uo xN²

So A = 0.7m * 25 x 10^-3H /( 4π x10^-7*

3000²)

A = 17.5*10^-3/ 1.13*10^-5

= 15.5*10^-2m²

Area= π r ²

15.5E-2/3.142 = r²

8) A soccer goal is 2.44 m high. A player kicks the ball at a distance 10.0 m from the goal at an angle of 25.0°. The ball hits

White raven [17]

Answer:

The initial speed of the soccer ball is 16.38 m/s

Explanation:

given;

vertical distance y = 2.44 m

horizontal distance x = 10.0 m

angle of projection θ = 25.0°

Initial velocity has two components, Vₓ and V $_y$

Vₓ = V $_i$ cosθ

V $_y$ = V $_i$ sinθ

The horizontal distance = x = Vₓt + ¹/₂ ˣ g ˣ t², but g =0

x = Vₓt = V $_i$ cosθ *t

10 = V $_i$ cos25 *t

10 = 0.906V $_i$ *t

V $_i$ *t = 10/0.906 = 11.038 m

The vertical distance (g = - g, because it upward motion against gravity)

y = V $_y$ *t -¹/₂ ˣ g ˣ t²

2.44 = (V $_i$ sinθ)t - ¹/₂ ˣ 9.8 ˣ t²

2.44 = (V $_i$ *t)sinθ - ¹/₂ ˣ 9.8 ˣ t²

2.44 = (11.038)sin25° - 4.9t²

2.44 = (11.038)*0.4226 - 4.9t²

2.44 = 4.6647 - 4.9t²

4.9t² = 4.6647 - 2.44 = 2.2247

t² = 2.2247/4.9

t² = 0.454

t = √0.454

t = 0.674 s

Recall that V $_i$ *t = 11.038 m

V $_i$ *0.674 = 11.038 m, solve for V $_i$

V $_i$ = 11.038/0.674

V $_i$ = 16.38 m/s

Therefore, the initial speed of the soccer ball is 16.38 m/s
