Answer:

<em>The y component of his displacement is 11.22 meters</em>

Explanation:

<u>Components of the displacement</u>

The displacement is a vector because it has a magnitude and a direction. Let's suppose a displacement has a magnitude r and a direction θ, measured with respect to the positive x-direction. The horizontal component of the displacement is calculated by:

$x=r\cos\theta$

The vertical component is calculated by:

$y=r\sin\theta$

The hiker has a displacement with magnitude r = 20.51 m at an angle of 33.16 degrees. Substituting in the above equation:

$y=20.51\sin(33.16^\circ)$

$y=11.22\ m$

The y component of his displacement is 11.22 meters

Vector vector a has a magnitude of 29 units and points in the positive y-direction. when vector vector b is added to vector a ,

Nutka1998 [239]

Good morning.

We have:

$\mathsf{\overset{\to}{a} = 29\overset{\to}{j}}$

Where j is the unitary vector in the direction of the y-axis.

We have that

$\mathsf{\overset{\to}{a}+\overset{\to}{b} = -18\overset{\to}{j}}$

We add the vector -a to both sides:

$\mathsf{\overset{\to}{b} = -18\overset{\to}{j} -\overset{\to}{a} = -18\overset{\to}{j} -29\overset{\to}{j}}\\ \\ \mathsf{\overset{\to}{b}=-47\overset{\to}{j}}$

Therefore, the magnitude of b is 47 units.

Answer:

1 cm⁻¹ =1.44K 1 ev = 1.16 10⁴ K

Explanation:

The relationship between temperature and thermal energy is

E = K T

The relationship of the speed of light

c =λ f = f / ν 1/λ= ν

The Planck equation is

E = h f

Let's start the transformations

c = f λ = f / ν

f = c ν

E = h f

E = h c ν

E = KT

h c ν = K T

T = h c ν / K =( h c / K) ν

Let's replace the constants

h = 6.63 10⁻³⁴ J s

c = 3 10⁸ m / s

K = 1.38 10⁻²³ J / K

v = 1 cm-1 (100 cm / 1 m) = 10² m-1

T = (6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3. 10⁸ / 1.38 10⁻²³) 1 10²

A = h c / K = 1,441 10⁻²

T = 1.44K

ν = 103 cm⁻¹ = 103 10² m

T = (6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3. 10⁸ / 1.38 10⁻²³) 103 10²

T = 148K

1 Rydberg = 1.097 10 7 m

As we saw at the beginning the λ=1 / v

T = (h c / K) 1 /λ

T = 1,441 10⁻² 1 / 1,097 10⁷

T = 1.3 10⁻⁹ K

E = 1Ev (1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J /1 eV) = 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J

E = KT

T = E/K

T = 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ /1.38 10⁻²³

T = 1.16 10⁴ K
