A ball thrown horizontally from the top of a building hits the ground in 0.600 s. If it had been thrown with twice the speed in the same direction, it would have hit the ground in:________.
a. 4.0 s.
b. 1.0 s.
c. 0.50 s.
d. 0.25 s.
e. 0.125 s.
Answer:
none of the answers is correct, the time is the same t₁ = t₂ = 0.600 s
Explanation:
This is a kinematics exercise, analyze the situation a bit. The vertical speed in both cases is the same is zero, the horizontal speed in the second case is double (vₓ₂ = 2 vₓ₁)
let's find the time to hit the ground
y = y₀ + I go t - ½ g t²
0 = y₀ - ½ g t²
t = √ 2y₀ / g
with the data from the first launch
y₀i = ½ g t²
y₀ = ½ 9.8 0.6²
y₀ = 1,764 m
with this is the same height the time to descend in the second case is the same
t₂ = 0.600 s
this is because the horizontal velocity change changes the offset on the x axis, but does not affect the offset on the y axis
Therefore, none of the answers is correct, the time is the same
t₁ = t₂ = 0.600 s
A person is swimming 1.1 m beneath the surface of the water in a swimming pool. A child standing on the diving board drops a ball into the pool directly above the swimmer. The swimmer sees the ball dropped from a height of 4.2 m above the water. From what height was the ball actually dropped?
Answer:
The actual height is [tex]A =3.158 \ m[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The depth of the person is [tex]d = 1.1 \ m[/tex]
The apparent height is [tex]D = 4.2 \ m[/tex]
Generally
The refractive index of water is [tex]n_w = 1.33[/tex]
The refractive index of the air is [tex]n_a = 1[/tex]
The apparent depth is mathematically represented as
[tex]D = A [\frac{n_w}{n_a} ][/tex]
substituting values
[tex]4.2 = A [\frac{1.33}{1} ][/tex]
=> [tex]A = \frac{4.2 }{1.33}[/tex]
[tex]A =3.158 \ m[/tex]
The ball was dropped at the height of "3.158 m". To understand the calculation, check below.
Refractive IndexAccording to the question,
Water's refractive index, [tex]n_w[/tex] = 1.33
Air's refractive index, [tex]n_a[/tex] = 1
Apparent height, D = 4.2 m
Person's depth, d = 1.1 m
We know the relation,
→ D = A[[tex]\frac{n_w}{n_a}[/tex]]
By substituting the values, we get
4.2 = A[[tex]\frac{1.33}{1}[/tex]]
By applying cross-multiplication,
A = [tex]\frac{4.2}{1.33}[/tex]
= 3.158 m
Thus the approach above is correct.

When you "crack" a knuckle, you suddenly widen the knuckle cavity, allowing more volume for the synovial fluid inside it and causing a gas bubble suddenly to appear in the fluid. The sudden production of the bubble, called "cavitation", produces a sound pulse---the cracking sound. Assume that the sound is transmitted uniformly in all directions and that it fully passes from the knuckle interior to the outside, at a distance of 0.29 m from your ear. If the pulse has a sound level of 61 dB at your ear, what is the rate at which energy is produced by the cavitation

"A trooper is moving due south along the freeway at a speed of 28 m/s. At time t = 0, a red car passes the trooper. The red car moves with constant velocity of 40 m/s southward. At the instant the trooper's car is passed, the trooper begins to speed up at a constant rate of 2.9 m/s2. What is the maximum distance ahead of the trooper that is reached by the red car?"
Answer:
24.83 m
Explanation:
Applying the equation of motion;
d = vt + 0.5at^2 ......1
Where;
d = distance
v = velocity
t = time
a = acceleration
For the trooper;
v = 28 m/s
a = 2.9 m/s^2
Substituting into equation 1;
d1 = 28t + 0.5(2.9t^2)
d1 = 28t + 1.45t^2
For the red car;
v = 40 m/s
a = 0
Substituting into equation 1
d2 = 40t
The difference in distance is;
d = d2 - d1
d = 40t - (28t + 1.45t^2)
d = 12t - 1.45t^2
The maximum distance is at d(d)/dt = 0
differentiating d;
d' = 12 - 2.9t = 0
2.9t = 12
t = 12/2.9 = 4.137931034482
t = 4.138 s
Substituting t into function d;
d(max) = 12(4.138) - 1.45(4.138^2)
d(max) = 24.8275862 = 24.83 m
the maximum distance ahead of the trooper that is reached by the red car is 24.83 m
You are moving a desk that has a mass of 36 kg; its acceleration is 0.5 m / s 2. What is the force being applied
Answer:
18 N
Explanation:
Force can be found using the following formula.
f= m*a
where m is the mass and a is the acceleration.
We know the desk has a mass of 36 kilograms. We also know that its acceleration is 0.5 m/s^2.
m= 36 kg
a= 0.5 m/s^2
Substitute these values into the formula.
f= 36 kg * 0.5 m/s^2
Multiply 36 and 0.5
f=18 kg m/s^2
1 kg m/s^2 is equivalent to 1 Newton, or N.
f= 18 Newtons
The force being applied is 18 kg m/s^2, Newtons, or N
John heats 1 kg of soup from 25 °C to 70 °C for 15 minutes by a heater. How long does the same heater take to heat 1.5 kg of the same kind of soup from 20 °C to 80 °C? The energy output per unit time by the heater is constant.
Answer:
30 minutes
Explanation:
Energy per time is constant, so:
E₁ / t₁ = E₂ / t₂
m₁C₁ΔT₁ / t₁ = m₂C₂ΔT₂ / t₂
(1 kg) C (70°C − 25°C) / 15 min = (1.5 kg) C (80°C − 20°C) / t
(1 kg) (45°C) / 15 min = (1.5 kg) (60°C) / t
3/min = 90 / t
t = 30 min

Three identical 6.0-kg cubes are placed on a horizontal frictionless surface in contact with one another. The cubes are lined up from left to right and a force is applied to the left side of the left cube causing all three cubes to accelerate to the right at 2.0 m/s2. What is the magnitude of the force exerted on the middle cube by the left cube in this case
Answer:
24 Newtons
Explanation:
The force exerted in the middle cube needs to be enough to move the middle cube and the right cube with an acceleration of 2 m/s2.
The mass of those two cubes combined is 6 + 6 = 12 kg
So, using the following equation, we can find the force:
Force = mass * acceleration
Force = 12 * 2
Force = 24 Newtons

A potential difference of 71 mV is developed across the ends of a 12.0-cm-long wire as it moves through a 0.27 T uniform magnetic field at a speed of 6.0 m/s. The magnetic field is perpendicular to the axis of the wire.
Required:
What is the angle between the magnetic field and the wire's velocity?
Answer:
Explanation: please see attached file I attached the answer to your question.
The angle between the magnetic field and the wire's velocity is 33.2 degrees.
Calculation of the angle:Since the potential difference = 71mv = 71 *10 ^-3 V
The length is 12 cm = 0.12m
The magnetic field i.e. B = 0.27T
The speed or v = 4 m/s
here we assume [tex]\theta[/tex] be the angle
So,
e = Bvl sin[tex]\theta[/tex]
So,
[tex]Sin\theta[/tex] = e/bvl
= 71*10^-3 / 0.27 *4*0.12
= 0.5478
= 33.2 degrees
Therefore, the angle should be 33.2 degrees

Escaping from a tomb raid gone wrong, Lara Croft (m = 62.0 kg) swings across an alligator-infested river from an 8.80-m-long vine. If her speed at the bottom of the swing is 6.30 m/s and she makes it safely across the river, what is the minimum breaking strength of the vine?
Answer:
887.2 N
Explanation:
Given that
Mass of Lara, m = 62 kg
Length of the vine, l = 8.8 m
Speed of the swing, v = 6.3 m/s Then,
We start by calculating her weight.
w = mass * acceleration
w = mg
w = 62 * 9.8
w = 607.6 N
F(c) = mv²/l, on substituting
F(c) = (62 * 6.3²) / 8.8
F(c) = 2460.78 / 8.8
F(c) = 279.6 N
T - 607.6 N = 279.6 N
T = 607.6 N + 279.6 N
T = 887.2 N
Thus, the minimum breaking strength of the vine is 887.2 N
The minimum breaking strength of the vine is about 900N.
TensionTension is a force developed by a rope, string, or cable when stretched under an applied force.
Given:
Mass (m) = 62 kg, length (l) = 8.8 m, velocity (v) = 6.3 m/s, g = 10 m/s².
Weight(W) = m * g = 62 * 10 = 620N
centripetal force = F(c) = mv²/l = 62 * 6.3² / 8.8 = 279.6N
T - W = F(c)
T - 620 = 279.6
T = 900N
The minimum breaking strength of the vine is about 900N.

A mass m at the end of a spring vibrates with a frequency of 0.72 Hz . When an additional 700 g mass is added to m, the frequency is 0.64 Hz . Part A What is the value of m? Express your answer using two significant figures.
Answer:
The value of m is 2635.294 grams.
Explanation:
Let suppose that mass-spring system has a simple harmonic motion, to this respect the formula for frequency is:
[tex]f = \frac{\omega}{2\pi}[/tex]
Where [tex]\omega[/tex] is the angular frequency, measured in radians per second.
For a mass-spring system under simple harmonic motion, the angular frequency is:
[tex]\omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }[/tex]
Where:
[tex]k[/tex] - Spring constant, measured in newtons per meter.
[tex]m[/tex] - Mass, measured in kilograms.
The following equation is obtained after replacing angular frequency in frequency formula:
[tex]f = \frac{1}{2\pi}\cdot \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }[/tex]
As this shows, frequency is inversely proportional to the square root of mass. Hence, the following relationship is deducted:
[tex]f_{1}\cdot \sqrt{m_{1}} = f_{2} \cdot \sqrt{m_{2}}[/tex]
If [tex]m_{2} = m_{1} + 700\,g[/tex], [tex]f_{1} = 0.72\,hz[/tex] and [tex]f_{2} = 0.64\,hz[/tex], the resulting expression is simplified and then initial mass is found after clearing it:
[tex]f_{1} \cdot \sqrt{m_{1}} = f_{2} \cdot \sqrt{m_{1}+700\,g}[/tex]
[tex]f_{1}^{2} \cdot m_{1} = f_{2}^{2}\cdot (m_{1} + 700\,g)[/tex]
[tex]\left(\frac{f_{1}}{f_{2}} \right)^{2}\cdot m_{1} = m_{1} + 700\,g[/tex]
[tex]\left[\left(\frac{f_{1}}{f_{2}}\right)^{2} - 1\right]\cdot m_{1} = 700\,g[/tex]
[tex]m_{1} = \frac{700\,g}{\left(\frac{f_{1}}{f_{2}} \right)^{2}-1}[/tex]
[tex]m_{1} = \frac{700\,g}{\left(\frac{0.72\,hz}{0.64\,hz} \right)^{2}-1}[/tex]
[tex]m_{1} = 2635.294\,g[/tex]
The value of m is 2635.294 grams.
The site from which an airplane takes off is the origin. The X axis points east, the y axis points straight up. The position and velocity vectors of the plane at a later time are given by r=(1.21x103i+3.45x104;)m and v= (2 i-3.5j) m/s The magnitude, in meters, of the plane's displacement from the origin is:_________
a. 2.50 x104
b. 1.45 x 104
c. 3.45x104
d. 2.5x103
e. none of the above
Answer:
d = 3.5*10^4 m
Explanation:
In order to calculate the displacement of the airplane you need only the information about the initial position and final position of the airplane. THe initial position is at the origin (0,0,0) and the final position is given by the following vector:
[tex]\vec{r}=(1.21*10^3\hat{i}+3.45*10^4\hat{j})m[/tex]
The displacement of the airplane is obtained by using the general form of the Pythagoras theorem:
[tex]d=\sqrt{(x-x_o)^2+(y-y_o)^2}[/tex] (1)
where x any are the coordinates of the final position of the airplane and xo and yo the coordinates of the initial position. You replace the values of all variables in the equation (1):
[tex]d=\sqrt{(1.12*10^3-0)^2+(3.45*10^4-0)^2}=3.45*10^4m[/tex]
hence, the displacement of the airplane is 3.45*10^4 m
Two parallel plates having charges of equal magnitude but opposite sign are separated by 21.0 cm. Each plate has a surface charge density of 39.0 nC/m2. A proton is released from rest at the positive plate. (a) Determine the magnitude of the electric field between the plates from the charge density.
Answer:
E = 3.45*10^-19 N/C
Explanation:
a) The electric field between two parallel plates id given by the following formula:
[tex]E=\frac{\sigma}{\epsilon_o}[/tex] (1)
where:
σ: surface charge density of the plates = 39.0nC/m^2
εo: dielectric permittivity of vacuum = 8.85*10^-12 C/Nm^2
You replace these values in the equation (1):
[tex]E=\frac{39.0*10^{-9}C/m^2}{8.85*10^{-12}C^2/Nm^2}\\\\E=3.45*10^{-19}\frac{N}{C}[/tex]
The electric field in between the parallel plates is 3.45*10^-19 N/C

A student throws a set of keys vertically upward to his fraternity brother, who is in a window 3.60 m above. The brother's outstretched hand catches the keys 1.60 s later. (Take upward as the positive direction. Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)With what initial velocity were the keys thrown?
Answer:
[tex]v_{i}=10.10 m/s[/tex]
Explanation:
The equation of the position is:
[tex]y=y_{i}+v_{i}t-0.5gt^{2}[/tex]
Where:
v(i) is the initial velocity
The initial position y(i) will be zero and the final position y = 3.60 m.
So, we just need to solve this equation for v(i).
[tex]v_{i}=\frac{y+0.5gt^{2}}{t}[/tex]
[tex]v_{i}=\frac{3.6+0.5*9.81*1.6^{2}}{1.6}[/tex]
[tex]v_{i}=10.10 m/s[/tex]
Therefore, the initial velocity is 10.10 m/s upwards.

B. At the instant when the block is at the highest point, directed at the block.
C. At the instant when the block leaves the spring, directed at the spring.
D. At the instant when the block leaves the spring, directed at the block.
E. When the block is back at the spring's original position, directed at that position.
Answer:
the correct answer is B
Explanation:
We analyze this exercise a little, the block goes into the air and is under the acceleration of gravity. The ball is fired by the hand and is describing a parabolic movement, subjected to the acceleration of gravity.
For the ball to hit the block we must have the distance the ball goes up equal to the distance the block moves, therefore we must shoot the ball at the block at its highest point.
Let's write the kinematic equation for the two bodies
The block. At the highest point of the path
y = - ½ g t2
The ball, in its vertical movement
y = vo t - ½ g t2
therefore the correct answer is B

a. is less than that observed inside the bus.
b. is the same as that observed inside the bus
c. may be either greater or smaller than that observed inside the bus.
d. may be either greater, smaller, or equal to that observed inside the bus.
e. is greator than that observed inside the bus
Answer:
d
Explanation:
good question. now the bus is moving in constant velocity . a student in front tosses a ball to the student in back. but we dont know the speed at which the student tosses a ball. we have to assume the speed
assume the speed of ball is slightly less than the speed of bus. in this case the stationary observer sees the ball in slower speed than the one inside the bus.
so a is correct
now assume the speed of ball is 1/2 the speed of bus. here stationary observer sees the ball the same speed as the one in bus observe
b is correct
assume the speed of ball is very small than the speed of bus . in this case the stationary observer see in grater speed than the student in bus
e also correct
so correct answer is d. it depends on the speed of ball tossed by the student in front.

Two parallel, vertical, plane mirrors, 38.8 cm apart, face each other. A light source at point P is 30.1 cm from the mirror on the left and 8.7 cm from the mirror on the right.
(a) How many images of point P are formed by the mirrors?
(b) Find the distance from the mirror on the right to the two nearest images behind the mirror.
first nearest image=
second nearest image=
(c) Find the number of reflections of light rays for each of these images.
first nearest image=
second nearest image=
Answer:
Explanation shown below.
Explanation:
1.The number of images formed by 2 parallel mirrors is an infinite number of images.
2. The characteristics of a plane mirror is such that the object distance equals the image distance.
Hence the object distance is 8.7cm from the right; the image formed would be 8.7cm behind the mirror.
Now a second image is going to be formed by the left mirror which is going to have an image distance of 30.1cm behind the mirror.
Now this image would be reflected on the right side to form a new image which is going to be seen as 38.8 +30.1 = 68.9cm behind the right Mirror .
Hence the shortest distances are 8.7cm and 68.9cm
3. The number of reflections is infinite for both cases.
6. When a positive charge is released and moves along an electric field line, it moves to a position of A) lower potential and lower potential energy. B) lower potential and higher potential energy. C) higher potential and lower potential energy. D) higher potential and higher potential energy.
Answer:
Since you would have to do work on the charge to bring it back to its original position, the charge moves to a position of lower potential and lower potential energy.
The positive charge is released from a point such that it will move along an uniform electric field to the position of lower potential and lower potential energy. Therefore, option (A) is correct,
When a positive charge (say +Q) is released from a point (say A) and moves in an uniform electric field to reach the point (say B), then some work is done on the charge. This work done is given as,
[tex]W=+Q(V_{A}-V_{B})[/tex]
Here, [tex]V_{A}[/tex] and [tex]V_{B}[/tex] are the potential differences between the points A and B respectively..
This means the charge is moving from higher potential to lower potential. And since it is moving along the uniform electric field, therefore the electric potential energy of charged system is decreased.
Thus, we conclude that on releasing the positive charge from a point, it starts moving along the electric field towards the direction of lower electric potential and lower electric potential energy. Hence, option (A) is correct.

Calculate the energy released by the electron-capture decay of 5727Co. Consider only the energy of the nuclei (ignore the energy of the surrounding electrons). The following masses are given:
5727Co: 56.936296u
5726Fe: 56.935399u
Express your answer in millions of electron volts (1u=931.5MeV/c2) to three significant figures.
A negligible amount of this energy goes to the resulting 5726Fe atom as kinetic energy. About 90 percent of the time, after the electron-capture process, the 5726Fe nucleus emits two successive gamma-ray photons of energies 0.140MeV and 1.70 102MeV in decaying to its ground state. The electron-capture process itself emits a massless neutrino, which also carries off kinetic energy. What is the energy of the neutrino emitted in this case?
Express your answer in millions of electron volts.
Answer:
Explanation:
⁵⁷Co₂₇ + e⁻¹ = ²⁷Fe₂₆
mass defect = 56.936296 + .00055 - 56.935399
= .001447 u
equivalent energy
= 931.5 x .001447 MeV
= 1.3479 MeV .
= 1.35 MeV
energy of gamma ray photons = .14 + .017
= .157 MeV .
Rest of the energy goes to neutrino .
energy going to neutrino .
= 1.35 - .157
= 1.193 MeV.
The Z0 boson, discovered in 1985, is the mediator of the weak nuclear force, and it typically decays very quickly. Its average rest energy is 91.19 GeV, but its short lifetime shows up as an intrinsic width of 2.5 GeV. what is the lifetime of this particle?
Answer:
The lifetime of the particle is [tex]\Delta t = 2.6*10^{-25} \ s[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The average rest energy is [tex]E = 91.19 \ GeV = 91.19GeV * \frac{1.60 *10^{-10} J }{1GeV} = 1.46 *10^{-8}J[/tex]
The intrinsic width is [tex]\Delta E =2.5eV = 2.5GeV * \frac{1.60 *10^{-10}J }{1GeV} = 4*10^{-10} J[/tex]
The lifetime is mathematically represented as
[tex]\Delta t = \frac{h}{\Delta E}[/tex]
Where h is the Planck's constant with a value of [tex]1.055*10^{-34} \ J\cdot s[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]\Delta t = \frac{1.055*10^{-34}}{4 *10^{-10}}[/tex]
[tex]\Delta t = 2.6*10^{-25} \ s[/tex]
