Here's a formula that's simple and useful, and if you're really in
high school physics, I'd be surprised if you haven't see it before.
This one is so simple and useful that I'd suggest memorizing it,
so it's always in your toolbox.
This formula tells how far an object travels in how much time,
when it's accelerating:
Distance = (1/2 acceleration) x (Time²).
D = 1/2 A T²
For your student who dropped an object out of the window,
Distance = 19.6 m
Acceleration = gravity = 9.8 m/s²
D = 1/2 G T²
19.6 = 4.9 T²
Divide each side by 4.9 : 4 = T²
Square root each side: 2 = T
When an object is dropped in Earth gravity,
it takes 2 seconds to fall the first 19.6 meters.
Answer:
v = 2.18m/s
Explanation:
In order to calculate the speed of Betty and her dog you take into account the law of momentum conservation. The total momentum before Betty catches her dog must be equal to the total momentum after.
Then you have:
(1)
M: mass Betty = 40kg
m: mass of the dog = 15kg
v1o: initial speed of Betty = 3.0m/s
v2o: initial speed of the dog = 0 m/s
v: speed of both Betty and her dog = ?
You solve the equation (1) for v:
The speed fo both Betty and her dog is 2.18m/s
Answer:
y = 0.0233 m
Explanation:
In a Young's Double Slit Experiment the distance between two consecutive bright fringes is given by the formula:
Δx = λL/d
where,
Δx = distance between fringes
λ = wavelength of light
L = Distance between screen and slits
d = Slit Separation
Now, for initial case:
λ = 425 nm = 4.25 x 10⁻⁷ m
y = 2Δx = 0.0177 m => Δx = 8.85 x 10⁻³ m
Therefore,
8.85 x 10⁻³ m = (4.25 x 10⁻⁷ m)L/d
L/d = (8.85 x 10⁻³ m)/(4.25 x 10⁻⁷ m)
L/d = 2.08 x 10⁴
using this for λ = 560 nm = 5.6 x 10⁻⁷ m:
Δx = (5.6 x 10⁻⁷ m)(2.08 x 10⁴)
Δx = 0.0116 m
and,
y = 2Δx
y = (2)(0.0116 m)
<u>y = 0.0233 m</u>
In our Solar System, Jupiter is the largest planet we have. it has the surface area of 23.71 billion mi^2. it beats all the other planets in both mass and volume.
Answer:
Explanation:
From work energy theorem
Work done by all forces = Change in kinetic energy
Lets take
m= mass of object
h=height from the ground surface
initial velocity of object = 0 m/s
The final velocity of object is v
Work done by gravitational force = m g . h
The final kinetic energy = 1/2 m v²
So
Work done by all forces = Change in kinetic energy
m g h = 1/2 m v² - 0
v² = 2 g h
