<h2>Answer: 277.777 m</h2>

Explanation:

The situation described here is parabolic movement. However, as we are told that the rock was<u> projected upward from the surface</u>, we will only use the equations related to the Y axis.

In this sense, the movement equations in the Y axis are:

y-y_{o}=V_{o}.t+\frac{1}{2}g.t^{2}    (1)

V=V_{o}-g.t    (2)

Where:

y  is the rock's final position

y_{o}=0  is the rock's initial position

V_{o}=30\frac{m}{s} is the rock's initial velocity

V is the final velocity

t is the time the parabolic movement lasts

g=1.62\frac{m}{s^{2}}  is the acceleration due to gravity at the surface of the moon

As we know y_{o}=0 , equation (2) is rewritten as:

y=V_{o}.t+\frac{1}{2}g.t^{2}    (3)

On the other hand, the maximum height  is accomplished when V=0:

V=V_{o}-g.t=0    (4)

V_{o}-g.t=0    

V_{o}=g.t    (5)

Finding t:

t=\frac{V_{o}}{g}    (6)

Substituting (6) in (3):

y=V_{o}(\frac{V_{o}}{g})+\frac{1}{2}g(\frac{V_{o}}{g})^{2}    (7)

y_{max}=\frac{{V_{o}}^{2}}{2g}    (8)  Now we can calculate the maximum height of the rock

y_{max}=\frac{{(30m/s)}^{2}}{(2)(1.62m/s^{2})}   (9)

Finally:

y_{max}=277.777m

A thin flake of mica (n=1.58) is used to cover one slit of a double-slit interference arrangement. The central point on the wiew
Llana [10]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the optical concepts related to the phase difference between two or more materials.

By definition we know that the phase between two light waves that are traveling on different materials (in this case also two) is given by the equation

\Phi = 2\pi(\frac{L}{\lambda}(n_1-n_2))

Where

L = Thickness

n = Index of refraction of each material

\lambda = Wavelength

Our values are given as

\Phi = 7(2\pi)

L=t

n_1 = 1.58

n_2 = 1

\lambda = 550nm

Replacing our values at the previous equation we have

\Phi = 2\pi(\frac{L}{\lambda}(n_1-n_2))

7(2\pi) = 2\pi(\frac{t}{\lambda}(1.58-1))

t = \frac{7*550}{1.58-1}

t = 6637.931nm \approx 6.64\mu m

Therefore the thickness of the mica is 6.64μm

GaryK [48]

Answer:

3.1 m/s

Explanation:

The total distance she has to run is the addition of the three lengths:

47 + 63 + 76 = 186 meters.

She needs to cover it one minute (60 seconds). Therefore her speed must be:

186 m / 60 s = 3.1 m/s

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

2. west

Explanation:

Given an electron is moving vertically upward from ground.

Now Fleming right hand rule state that: make L shape with thumb and index finger then point middle finger perpendicular to index and thumb.Then index finger points in the direction of moving charge , middle finger points in the direction of the magnetic field and thumb points in the direction of the magnetic force.

According to Fleming right hand rule the direction of the magnetic that acts on the electron is west.
