While skiing in Jackson, Wyoming, your friend Ben (of mass 62.3 kg) started his descent down the bunny run, 17.3 m above the bottom of the run. If he started at rest and converted all of his gravitational potential energy into kinetic energy, what is Ben’s kinetic energy at the bottom of the bunny run? Use g = 9.8 m/s 2 Answer in units of J.

True or false: the cycle of seasons on the earth is caused by the tilt of the earth on its axis toward and away from the sun.

The magnetic field inside a superconducting solenoid is 4.50 t. the solenoid has an inner diameter of 6.20 cm and a length of 26.0 cm. determine (a) the magnetic energy density in the field and (b) the energy stored in the magnetic field within the solenoid.

Some material consisting of a collection of microscopic objects is kept at a high temperature. a photon detector capable of detecting photon energies from infrared through ultraviolet observes photons emitted with energies of 0.3 ev, 0.5 ev, 0.8 ev, 2.0ev, 2.5ev, and 2.8ev. these are the only photon energies observed. (a) draw and label a possible energy-level diagram for one of the microscopic objects, which has four bound states. on the diagram, indicate the transitions corresponding to the emitted photons. explain briefly. (b) would a spring–mass model be a good model for these microscopic objects? why or why not? (c) the material is now cooled down to a very low temperature, and the photon detector stops detecting photon emissions. next, a beam of light with a continuous range of energies from infrared through ultraviolet shines on the material, and the photon detector observes the beam of light after it passes through the material. what photon energies in this beam of light are observed to be significantly reduced in intensity (“dark absorption lines”)? explain briefly.
