Answer: The light bulb produces the continuous light. At minimum wavelength the spectrum have maximum intensity.

Explanation:

According to Wein's displacement law, the wavelength is inversely proportional to the temperature.

The intensity depends on the frequency. The frequency is inversely proportional to the wavelength.

Therefore, when the temperature of the light bulb will be maximum then the wavelength will be minimum. At minimum wavelength the spectrum have maximum intensity.

A 4.0 g string, 0.36 m long, is under tension. The string produces a 500 Hz tone when it vibrates in the third harmonic. The spe

almond37 [142]

Answer:

$\lambda = 0.24 m$

Explanation:

The string vibrates in the third harmonics, n = 3

Length of the string, l = 0.36 m

Frequency of the tone produced, f = 500 Hz

The speed of sound in air is 344 m/s

Calculate the speed of sound produced by the string in the third harmonics:

The frequency of sound is given by the formula:

$f = \frac{nv}{2l} \\500 = \frac{3v}{2*0.36}\\500 * 2 * 0.36 = 3v\\v = 360/3\\v = 120 m/s\\v = \lambda f\\\lambda = v/f\\\lambda = 120/500\\\lambda = 0.24 m$

Two students are playing paddle ball with a 5 kg spongy ball. If the ball is thrown at the batter with a speed of 5 m/s and boun

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

75 kgm/s

Explanation:

Impulse: This can be defined as the product of mass and change in velocity. The S.I unit is kgm/s.

From the question,

I = m(v-u)................... Equation 1

Where I = impulse, m = mass, v = final velocity, u = initial velocity.

Let the direction of the initial velocity be the positive direction.

Given: m = 5 kg, v = -10 m/s (bounce off), u = 5 m/s.

Substitute into equation 1

I = 5(-10-5)

I = 5(-15)

I = -75 kgm/s.

The negative sign tells that the impulse act in the same direction as the final velocity of the ball

Hence,

I = 75 kgm/s

In springboard diving, the diver strides out to the end of the board, takes a jump onto its end, and uses the resultant spring-l

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

10.4 m/s

Explanation:

The problem can be solved by using the following SUVAT equation:

$v=u+at$

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

For the diver in the problem, we have:

$u=+6.3 m/s$ is the initial velocity (positive because it is upward)

$a=g=-9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity (negative because it is downward)

By substituting t = 1.7 s, we find the velocity when the diver reaches the water:

$v=+6.3 + (-9.8)(1.7)=-10.4 m/s$

And the negative sign means that the direction is downward: so, the speed is 10.4 m/s.

A hungry 169169 kg lion running northward at 77.377.3 km/hr attacks and holds onto a 31.731.7 kg Thomson's gazelle running eastw

navik [9.2K]

Answer: 75,242.9 m/s

Explanation:

from the question we are given the following parameters

mass of Lion (ML) = 169,169 kg

velocity of lion (VL) = 777,377.7 m/s

mass of Gazelle (Mg) = 31,731.7 kg

velocity of Gazelle (Vg) = 63,863.8 kg

mass of Lion and Gazelle (M) = 200,900.7 kg

velocity of Lion and Gazelle (V) = ?

The first figure below shows the motion of the Lion and Gazelle with their direction.

The second diagram shows the motion of the Lion and Gazelle with their directions rearranged to form a right angle triangle.

from the triangle formed we can get the velocity of the Lion and Gazelle immediately after collision using their momentum and Phytaghoras theorem

momentum = mass x velocity

momentum of the Lion = 169,169 x 77,377.3 = 13,089,840,463.7 kgm/s

momentum of the Gazelle = 31,731.7 x 63,863.8 = 2,026,506,942.46 kgm/s

momentum of the Lion and Gazelle = 200,900.7 x V

now applying Phytaghoras theorem we have

13,089,840,463.7 + 2,026,506,942.46 = 200,900.7 x V

15,116,347,406.16 = 200,900.7 x V

V = 75,242.9 m/s

Scientists studying an anomalous magnetic field find that it is inducing a circular electric field in a plane perpendicular to t

yarga [219]

Answer

The rate at which the magnetic field is changing is $[\frac{dB}{dt} ] = 0.000467 T/s$

Explanation

From the question we are told that

The electric field strength is $E = 3.5mV/m = 3.5 *10^{-3} \ V/m$

The radius is $r = 1.5 \ m$

The rate of change of the magnetic field is mathematically represented as

$\frac{d \phi }{dt} = \int\limits^{} {E \cdot dl}$

Where $dl$ is change of a unit length

$\frac{d \phi}{dt} = A * \frac{dB}{dt}$

Where A is the area which is mathematically represented as

$A = \pi r^2$

$E \int\limits^{} { dl} = ( \pi r^2) (\frac{dB}{dt} )$

$E L = ( \pi r^2) (\frac{dB}{dt} )$

where L is the circumference of the circle which is mathematically represented as

$L = 2 \pi r$

$E (2 \pi r ) = (\pi r^2 ) [\frac{dB}{dt} ]$

$E = \frac{r}{2} [\frac{dB}{dt} ]$

$[\frac{dB}{dt} ] = \frac{E}{ \frac{r}{2} }$

substituting values

$[\frac{dB}{dt} ] = \frac{3.5 *10^{-3}}{ \frac{15}{2} }$

$[\frac{dB}{dt} ] = 0.000467 T/s$
