Answer:

80 m tall

Explanation:

*** EDITED *** (I left out the '1/2' in the equation....D'Oh!)

It was descending 4 seconds ...because it landed 20 m away (at 5 m/s ...so 4 seconds)

displacement =<u> 1/2</u> a t^2

= 1/2 * 10 ( 4)^2 = 80 m tall

An object of mass 2.0 kg is attached to the top of a vertical spring that is anchored to the floor. The unstressed length of the

poizon [28]

Answer:

The value is $A = 0.014 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the object is $m = 2.0 \ kg$

The unstressed length of the string is $l = 0.08 \ m$

The length of the spring when it is at equilibrium is $l_e = 5.9 \ cm = 0.059 \ m$

The initial speed (maximum speed)of the spring when given a downward blow $v = 0.30 \ m/s$

Generally the maximum speed of the spring is mathematically represented as

$u = A * w$

Here A is maximum height above the floor (i.e the maximum amplitude)

and $w$ is the angular frequency which is mathematically represented as

$w = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }$

$u = A * \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }$

=> $A = u * \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }$

Gnerally the length of the compression(Here an assumption that the spring was compressed to the ground by the hammer is made) by the hammer is mathematically represented as

$b = l -l_e$

=> $b = 0.08 - 0.05 9$

=> $b = 0.021 \ m$

Generally at equilibrium position the net force acting on the spring is

$k * b - mg = 0$

=> $k * 0.021 - 2 * 9.8 = 0$

=> $k = 933 \ N/m$

$A = 0.30 * \sqrt{\frac{2}{933} }$

=> $A = 0.014 \ m$

How many times farther is Proxima Centauri from the sun than is earth from the sun

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

Of the three stars in the system, the dimmest - called Proxima Centauri - is actually the nearest star to the Sun. The two bright stars, called Alpha Centauri A and B form a close binary system; they are separated by only 23 times the Earth - Sun distance.

Consider an electron, of charge magnitude e = 1.602 10-19 C and mass me = 9.11 10-31 kg, moving in an electric field with an ele

Tems11 [23]

Answer: v= 7.509 x 10^6 m/s

B) the lower plate because the electron is negatively charged

Explanation:

From the question

Electronic charge (q) =1.602 x 10^-19c

Electric field intensity (E) = 8 x 10² = 800N/C

Mass of electron (m) = 9.11 x 10^-31 kg

Length of plate (L) = 50cm=0.5m

Distance between plates (D) = 20cm = 0.2m

Since the electron is entering a uniform electric field, the resulting motion will be of a constant acceleration and can be defined by the equations of motion with a constant acceleration.

From newton's law of motion.

F= ma

The force (F) is coming from the electric field which is

F=Eq.

Thus F = 800 x 1.602 x 10^-19

F = 1.2816 x 10^-16 N

Acceleration of electron (a) = F/m where m is the mass of electron (given above)

Hence

a = 1.2816 x 10^-16 / 9.11 x 10^-31

a= 1.41 x 10¹⁴ m/s².

Using Newton laws of motion to get velocity, we recall that v²= u² + 2ad

Where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity (zero in this case because the electron starts it motion from rest), a= acceleration, d= distance traveled (which in this case is distance between plates)

v² = 0² + 2(1.41 x 10¹⁴) x 0.2

v² = 5.64 x 10¹³

Thus v = √ 5.64 x 10¹³

v = 7.509 x 10^6 m/s

Since the electric field is upwards it denotes that the positive plate is downward and the negative is upward ( this is because electric flux from a positive charge has an outward flow and that from a negative charge has an inward flow. So from our questions, if the electric field is upward, it means it is starting from the bottom plate which will be positive) the electron (which is negatively charged) will be attracted to the positive plate which is downward for this question of ours.

So therefore, the electron is attracted to the downward plate because it (electron) is negative
