The mass of a high speed train is 4.5×105kg, and it is traveling forward at a velocity of 8.3×101m/s. Given that momentum equals

mass times velocity, determine the values of m and n when the momentum of the train (in kg⋅m/s) is written in scientific notation.

 The mass of the train is 4.5 x10⁵ kg.

The speed of the train is 8.3 x 10¹ m/s. 

 The momentum of the train is equal to mass times velocity.

P = m*v   

P = (4.5 x 10⁵ kg)(8.3 x 10¹ m/s)   

P= 3.7350 E 7 kg m/s

If we reduce the numbers of significant values

 P = 3.7 E 7 kg m/s

 m is equal to  3.7

 n is equal to 7.

Dane is standing on the moon holding an 8 kilogram brick 2 metres above the ground. How much energy is in the brick's gravitatio
Nadya [2.5K]

The gravitational potential energy of the brick is 25.6 J

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its position in a gravitational field.

Near the surface of a planet, the gravitational potential energy is given by

PE=mgh

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the strength of the gravitational field

h is the height of the object relative to the ground

For the brick in this problem, we have:

m = 8 kg is its mass

g = 1.6 N/kg is the strenght of the gravitational field on the moon

h = 2 m is the height above the ground

Substituting, we find:

PE=(8)(1.6)(2)=25.6 J

A single slit, which is 0.050 mm wide, is illuminated by light of 550 nm wavelength. What is the angular separation between the
likoan [24]

Answer:

The separation between the first two minima on either side is 0.63 degrees.

Explanation:

A diffraction experiment consists on passing monochromatic light trough a small single slit, at some distance a light diffraction pattern is projected on a screen. The diffraction pattern consists on intercalated dark and bright fringes that are symmetric respect the center of the screen, the angular positions of the dark fringes θn can be find using the equation:

a\sin \theta_n=n\lambda

with a the width of the slit, n the number of the minimum and λ the wavelength of the incident light. We should find the position of the n=1 and n=2 minima above the central maximum because symmetry the angular positions of n=-1 and n=-2 that are the angular position of the minima below the central maximum, then:

for the first minimum

a\sin \theta_1=(1)\lambda

solving for θ1:

\theta_1=\arcsin (\frac{\lambda}{a})=\arcsin (\frac{550\times10^{-9}}{0.05\times10^{-3}})

\theta_1=0.63 degrees

for the second minimum:

a\sin \theta_2=(2)\lambda

\theta_2=\arcsin (\frac{2\lambda}{a})=\arcsin (\frac{2*550\times10^{-9}}{0.05\times10^{-3}})

\theta_2=1.26 degrees

So, the angular separation between them is the rest:

\Delta \theta =1.26-0.63

\Delta \theta=0.63

Un cable está tendido sobre dos postes colocados con una separación de 10 m. A la mitad del cable se cuelga un letrero que provo
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

El peso del cartel es 397,97 N

Explanation:

La tensión dada en cada segmento del cable = 2000 N

El desplazamiento vertical del cable = 50 cm = 0,5 m

La distancia entre los polos = 10 m

La posición del letrero en el cable = En el medio = 5

El ángulo de inclinación del cable a la vertical = tan⁻¹ (0.5 / 5) = 5.71 °

El peso del letrero = La suma del componente vertical de la tensión en cada lado del letrero

El peso del signo = 2000 × sin (5.71 grados) + 2000 × sin (5.71 grados) = 397.97 N

El peso del signo = 397,97 N.
