Answer:2m/s^2

Explanation:

mass=0.25kg

Force =0.5N

Acceleration=force/ mass

Acceleration=0.5/0.25

Acceleration=2

Acceleration =2m/s^2

Imagine you derive the following expression by analyzing the physics of a particular system: v2=v20+2ax. The problem requires so

lisabon 2012 [21]

As per kinematics equation we are given that

$v^2 = v_o^2 + 2ax$

now we are given that

a = 2.55 m/s^2

$v_0 = 21.8 m/s$

$v = 0$

now we need to find x

from above equation we have

$0^2 = 21.8^2 + 2(2.55)x$

$0 = 475.24 + 5.1 x$

$x = 93.2 m$

so it will cover a distance of 93.2 m

The braking force is -400 N

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the impulse theorem, which states that the impulse applied on the ferry (the product of force and time) is equal to its change in momentum:

$F \Delta t = m(v-u)$

where in this problem, we have:

F is the force applied by the brakes

$\Delta t = 65 s$ is the time interval

m = 13,000 kg is the mass of the ferry

u = 2.0 m/s is the initial velocity

v = 0 is the final velocity

And solving for F, we find the force applied by the brakes:

$F=\frac{m(v-u)}{\Delta t}=\frac{(13000)(0-2.0)}{65}=-400 N$

where the negative sign indicates that the direction is backward.

Answer:

First Question

$E = 1.065*10^{-12} \ J$

Second Question

The wavelength is for an X-ray

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The width of the wall is $w = 10\ fm = 10*10^{-15 }\ m$

The first excited state is $n_1 = 2$

The ground state is $n_0 = 1$

Gnerally the energy (in MeV) of the photon emitted when the proton undergoes a transition is mathematically represented as

$E = \frac{h^2 }{ 8 * m * l^2 [ n_1^2 - n_0 ^2 ] }$

Here h is the Planck's constant with value $h = 6.62607015 * 10^{-34} J \cdot s$

m is the mass of proton with value $m = 1.67 * 10^{-27} \ kg$

$E = \frac{( 6.626*10^{-34})^2 }{ 8 * (1.67 *10^{-27}) * (10 *10^{-15})^2 [ 2^2 - 1 ^2 ] }$

=> $E = 1.065*10^{-12} \ J$

Generally the energy of the photon emitted is also mathematically represented as

$E = \frac{h * c }{ \lambda }$

=> $\lambda = \frac{h * c }{E }$

=> $\lambda = \frac{6.62607015 * 10^{-34} * 3.0 *10^{8} }{ 1.065 *10^{-15 } }$

=> $\lambda = 1.87*10^{-10} \ m$

Generally the range of wavelength of X-ray is $10^{-8} \to 1)^{-12}$

So this wavelength is for an X-ray.

If a single constant force acts on an object that moves on a straight line, the object's velocity is a linear function of time.

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

$F=mkv$

Explanation:

Given that

$v = v_i - kx$

We know that acceleration a given as

$a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}$

$v = v_i - kx$

$\dfrac{dv}{dt}=\dfrac{dv_i}{dt}-k\dfrac{dx}{dt}$

$\dfrac{dv}{dt}=0-k\dfrac{dx}{dt}$

We know that

$F=m\dfrac{dv}{dt}$

$F=-mk\dfrac{dx}{dt}$

$F=-mkv$

So the magnitude of force F

$F=mkv$
