A spring-loaded toy gun projects a 5.0 g nerf pellet horizontally. The spring constant is 8.5 N/m, the barrel of the gun is 12 cm long, and a constant frictional force of 0.029 N exists between the barrel and the nerf pellet. If the spring is compressed 5.5 cm for this launch, determine the speed (in m/s) of the pellet as it leaves the barrel. (Assume the pellet is in contact with the barrel for the full length of the barrel.)

9.98 kg of r-134a at 300 kpa fills a rigid container whose volume is 14 l. determine the temperature and total enthalpy in the container. the container is now heated until the pressure is 600 kpa. determine the temperature and total enthalpy when the heating is completed. use data from the steam tables.

Antireflective coatings on solar cells are often made by applying a thin film of silicon nitride (sinx), which has an index of refractive of 1.2, on the top of the silicon solar cell, which has a refractive index of about 3.5. however, the sun emits radiation of various wavelengths which the solar cell absorbs, and the antireflective coating can only absolutely minimize the reflection of one of these wavelengths. the coating thickness is chosen to reduce the reflection of green/yellow light (e = 2.2 ev), which is the most intense color in the solar spectrum (shown below). which of the following coatings would minimize reflection of green/yellow light? the answer is 820 nm how? what is the angular width of the central maximum of an electron traveling at 2 x 108 m/s going through a single slit of width 1 mm.
