In a lab environment, you are investigating the impulse of a force exerted on a brick when the brick's speed is reduced from 2.5 m/s to a complete stop. first, you allow the brick to slam into a secured piece of wood, bringing the brick to a sudden stop. second, you allow the brick to plow into a large slab of gelatin so that the brick comes to a gradual halt. in which situation is there a greater impulse of the force on the brick?

a. the impulse is the same in both situations.

b. there is a greater impulse of the force on the brick from the gelatin.

c. not enough information is given to determine the answer.

d. there is a greater impulse of the force on the brick from the wall.

Glass is transparent to visibile light under normal conditions; however, at extremely high intensities, glass will absorb most of the light incident upon it. this works through a process known as multiphoton absorption. in this process, several photons are absorbed at the same time. if very intense light whose photons carry 2ev of energy is shined onto a material with a band gap of 4ev, that light can be absorbed through two-photon absorption, because two photons have the right amount of energy to bridge the band gap. what is the minimum number of photons of 800-nm light that are needed to equal or exceed the band gap of fused silica glass

Which of the following is an example of units for speed

3. a worker pushes a 30.5 kg polished stone along a polished table with a force on bonin a straight line for 5.20 s after starting from rest. there is no friction between thestone and the table. at the end of the table. the stone is hooked to a cable with a lengthof 62.0 cm to rotate it to a rough table to store until they can be picked up. the roughtable has a coefficient of static friction 0.702 with the polished stone. remember that 8= 9.80 m/s2a) what is the speed of the stone when it is hooked to the cable? b) what is the tension in the cable while the stone is rotating? (there is still nofriction)c) how much force is needed to make the stone begin sliding from rest on therough table? ius = 0.70262.0 cm30.5 kg20.5 kg6= 0
