Given that,

mass of ball , m =11 lbs

Time , t = 1.0 seconds

Acceleration , a = 9.8 m/s²

Distance , s = ?

Since, we know that,

S = Vi *t + 1/2 at²

Since initial velocity is zero in this case (ball was at state of rest before falling to the ground)

S = 1/2 *9.8 * (1)²

S = 4.9 m

The distance covered by ball after one second will be 4.9 m.

If you could shine a very powerful flashlight beam toward the Moon, estimate the diameter of the beam when it reaches the Moon.
grin007 [14]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the Rayleigh Criterion (Angular resolution)criterion. This conceptos describes the ability of any image-forming device such as an optical or radio telescope, a microscope, a camera, or an eye, to distinguish small details of an object, thereby making it a major determinant of image resolution.  By definition is defined as:

\theta = 1.22\frac{\lambda}{d}

Where,

\lambda= Wavelength

d = Width of the slit

\theta= Angular resolution

Through the arc length we can find the radius, which would be given according to the length and angle previously described.

The radius of the beam on the moon is

r = l\theta

Relacing \theta

r = l(\frac{1.22\lambda}{d})

r = 1.22\frac{l\lambda}{d}

Replacing with our values we have that,

r = 1.22*(\frac{(384*10^3km)(\frac{1000m}{1km})(550*10^{-9}m)}{7*10^{{-2}}})

r = 3680.91m

Therefore the diameter of the beam on the moon is

d = 2r

d = 2 * (3690.91)

d = 7361.8285m

Hence, the diameter of the beam when it reaches the moon is 7361.82m

Light with energy equal to three times the work function of a given metal causes the metal to eject photoelectrons. What is the
Mrac [35]

The ratio of the maximum photoelectron kinetic energy to the work function will be 3:1.

<h3 /><h3>What is the photoelectric effect?</h3>

When a medium receives electromagnetic radiation, electrostatically charged particles are emitted from or inside it.

The emission of ions from a steel plate when light falls on it is a common definition of the effect. The substance could be a solid, liquid, or gas; and the released particles could be protons or electrons.

A particular metal emits photoelectrons when exposed to light with energy three times its work function:

\rm KE=3 \phi

The ratio of the maximum photoelectron kinetic energy to the work function will be;

R=\frac{E}{\phi} \\\\ R=\frac{3 \phi}{\phi} \\\\ R= 3

Hence, the ratio of the maximum photoelectron kinetic energy to the work function will be 3:1.

Do balanced forces change an objects motion
meriva

If the group of all forces acting on an object is balanced,
then the effect of all of them is the same as if there were
no forces at all on the object.  In that case, the object
continues moving in a straight line at a constant speed.
