When thrown from the balloon, the sandbag has a constant horizontal/forward velocity. As the text puts it, "the sandbag continues forward as if it had not been dropped." What this means is that the sandbag has no acceleration in the horizontal plane of motion, so it moves in this direction at a constant speed. So for any time t, the horizontal velocity is given by

v_x(t) = 12\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}

In the vertical plane of motion, the sandbag has no vertical velocity until it's released and allowed to fall. As it's falling, however, the sandbag is being pulled down by gravity and is accelerating with magnitude g=9.8\frac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}, so its vertical/downward velocity at time t is given by

v_y(t) = -gt

So, after 3 seconds have passed, the sandbag has horizontal velocity v_x = 12\frac{\rm m}{\rm s} and vertical velocity v_y = -g(3\,\mathrm s) = -29.4\frac{\rm m}{\rm s}. If the question is specifically asking about speed you would just ignore the negative signs.

A positively charged particle is in the center of a parallel-plate capacitor that has charge ±Q on its plates. SUppose the dista
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

Stay the same

Explanation:

First of all, let's find how the capacitance of the capacitor changes.

Initially, it is given by

C=\frac{\epsilon_0 A}{d}

where

\epsilon_0 is the vacuum permittivity

A is the area of the plates

d is the separation between the plates

From the formula, we see that the capacitance is inversely proportional to the separation between the plates. In this problem, the distance between the plates is doubled, so the capacitance will be halved:

C' = \frac{1}{2}C

The potential difference across the capacitor is given by

V= \frac{Q}{C}

where

Q is the charge on the plates

C is the capacitance

We see that the voltage is inversely proportional to the capacitance. We said that the capacitance has halved: therefore, the potential difference across the two plates will double:

V' = 2 V

Now we can analyze the electric field between the plates of the capacitor, which is given by

E=\frac{V}{d}

we said that:

- The voltage has doubled: V' = 2 V

- The distance between the plates has doubled: d' = 2 d

therefore, the new electric field will be

E'=\frac{2V}{2d}=\frac{V}{d}=E

So, the electric field is unchanged. And since the force on the particle at the center is directly proportional to the electric field:

F = qE

Then the force on the particle will stay the same.

A ball is kicked from the top of a building with a velocity of 50 m/s and lands 165 m away from the base of the buildi
solniwko [45]

Answer:

32.3 m/s

Explanation:

The ball follows a projectile motion, where:

- The horizontal motion is a uniform motion at costant speed

- The vertical motion is a free fall motion (constant acceleration)

We start by analyzing the horizontal motion. The ball travels horizontally at constant speed of

v_x = 50 m/s

and it covers a distance of

d = 165 m

So, the total time of flight of the ball is

t=\frac{d}{v_x}=\frac{165}{50}=3.3 s

In order to find the vertical velocity of the ball, we have now to analyze its vertical motion.

The vertical motion is a free-fall motion, so the ball is falling at constant acceleration; therefore we can use the following suvat equation:

v_y = u_y +at

where

v_y is the vertical velocity at time t

u_y=0 is the initial vertical velocity

a=g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration  of gravity (taking downward as positive direction)

Substituting t = 3.3 s (the time of flight), we find the final vertical velocity of the ball:

v=0 + (9.8)(3.3)=32.3 m/s
