Answer:

232.641374 mph

Explanation:

A race car has a maximum speed of 0.104km/s

Let X represent the speed in miles per hour

Therefore the speed in miles per hour can be calculated as follows

1 km/s = 2,236.936292 mph

0.104km/s = X

X = 0.104 × 2,236.936292

X = 232.641374

Hence the speed in miles per hour is 232.641374 mph

jekas [21]

First, torque is equal to force times the distance. for the first force that is applied, the torque is zero because is applied at the hinge. so the net torque:
t = ( 12 N ) ( 0 m ) ( cos 30 ) + ( 12 N ) ( 1.68 m ) cos 45
t = 14.26 Nm is the torque with respect to the hinge

A photon is scattered from an initially stationary electron within a metal. How does the frequency of the photon change upon sca

sammy [17]

Answer:

The frequency of the photon decreases upon scattering

Explanation:

Here we note that when a photon is scattered by a charged particle, it is referred to as Compton scattering.

Compton scattering results in a reduction of the energy of the photon and hence an increase in the wavelength (from λ to λ') of the photon known as Compton effect.

Therefore, since the wavelength increases, we have from

λf = λ'f' = c

f = c/λ

Where:

f and f' = The frequency of the motion of the photon before and after the scattering

c = Speed of light (constant)

We have that the frequency, f, is inversely proportional to the wavelength, λ as follows;

f = c/λ

As λ = increases, and c is constant, f decreases, therefore, the frequency of the photon decreases upon scattering.

An insurance company hired your group to help investigate an insurance claim following a car accident. In the accident, two cars

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

v=8m/s

Explanation:

To solve this problem we have to take into account, that the work done by the friction force, after the collision must equal the kinetic energy of both two cars just after the collision. Hence we have

$W_{f}=E_{k}\\W_{f}=\mu N=\mu(m_1+m_1)g\\E_{k}=\frac{1}{2}[m_1+m_2]v^2$

where

mu: coefficient of kinetic friction

g: gravitational acceleration

We can calculate the speed of the cars after the collision by using

$W_f=(0.7)(1650kg+1900kg)(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})=24353J\\24353J=\frac{1}{2}(1650kg+1900kg)v^2\\v=\sqrt{\frac{24353J}{1775kg}}=3.70\frac{m}{s}$

Now , we can compute the speed of the second car by taking into account the conservation of the momentum

$P_b=P_a\\m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)v\\\\v_2=\frac{(m_1+m_2)v-m_1v_1}{m_1}\\\\v_2=\frac{(1650kg+1900kg)(3.7\frac{m}{s})-(1650kg)(16\frac{m}{s})}{(1650kg)}\\\\v_2=8\frac{m}{s}$

the car did not exceed the speed limit

Hope this helps!!

Find the current that flows in a silicon bar of 10-μm length having a 5-μm × 4-μm cross-section and having free-electron and hol

klasskru [66]

The current flowing in silicon bar is 2.02 $\times$ 10^-12 A.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Length of silicon bar, l = 10 μm = 0.001 cm

Free electron density, Ne = 104 cm^3

Hole density, Nh = 1016 cm^3

μn = 1200 cm^2 / V s

μр = 500 cm^2 / V s

The total current flowing in the bar is the sum of the drift current due to the hole and the electrons.

J = Je + Jh

J = n qE μn + p qE μp

where, n and p are electron and hole densities.

J = Eq (n μn + p μp)

we know that E = V / l

So, J = (V / l) q (n μn + p μp)

J = (1.6 $\times$ 10^-19) / 0.001 (104 $\times$ 1200 + 1016 $\times$ 500)

J = 1012480 $\times$ 10^-16 A / m^2.

J = 1.01 $\times$ 10^-9 A / m^2

Current, I = JA

A is the area of bar, A = 20 μm = 0.002 cm

I = 1.01 $\times$ 10^-9 $\times$ 0.002 = 2.02 $\times$ 10^-12

So, the current flowing in silicon bar is 2.02 $\times$ 10^-12 A.
