Answer:

Speed of gamma rays = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Frequency of gamma ray = 3 x 10¹⁹ Hz

Wavelength of gamma rays = 1 x 10⁻¹¹ meter

Find:

Speed of gamma rays

Computation:

Velocity = Frequency x wavelength

Speed of gamma rays = Frequency of gamma ray x Wavelength of gamma rays

Speed of gamma rays = [3 x 10¹⁹][1 x 10⁻¹¹]

Speed of gamma rays = 3 x [10¹⁹⁻¹¹]

Speed of gamma rays = 3 x [10⁸]

Speed of gamma rays = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

A ball, which has a mass of 1.25 kg, is thrown straight up from the top of a building 225 meters tall with a velocity of 52.0 m/

Elena-2011 [213]

First we will find the speed of the ball just before it will hit the floor

so in order to find the speed of the cart we will first use energy conservation

$KE_i + PE_i = KE_f + PE_f$

$\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2 + mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2 + 0$

$\frac{1}{2}(1.25)(52)^2 + 1.25(9.8)(225) = \frac{1}{2}(1.25)v_f^2$

So by solving above equation we will have

$v_f = 84.3 m/s$

now in order to find the momentum we can use

$P = mv$

$P = 1.25 \times 84.3$

$P = 105.4 kg m/s$

A car travels 82 meters do North and 14 seconds the car turns around and travels 44 m due south in four seconds what is the magn

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

2.11 m/s

Explanation:

Take north to be positive and south to be negative.

Average velocity = displacement / time

v = (82 m + -44 m) / (14 s + 4 s)

v = 2.11 m/s

The velocity is positive, so it is 2.11 m/s north. The magnitude of the velocity is 2.11 m/s.
