A girl throws a tennis ball upward with an initial velocity of 4 m/s. What is the maximum displacement of the ball?

Physics

Jobisdone [24]3 years ago

Answer:

0.82 m

Explanation:

The ball is in free fall - uniform accelerated motion with constant acceleration downward, a=g=-9.8 m/s^2 (acceleration of gravity). So we can use the following suvat equation to solve the problem:

v^2-u^2=2as

where

v is the final velocity

u = 4 m/s is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the displacement

At the maximum displacement, v = 0 (the velocity becomes zero). Substituting and solving for s, we find:

s=-\frac{u^2}{2a}=-\frac{4^2}{2(-9.8)}=0.82 m

A disk of radius a has a total charge Q uniformly distributed over its surface. The disk has negligible thickness and lies in th
sleet_krkn [62]

The electric potential V(z) on the z-axis is :  V = (\frac{Q}{a^2} ) [ (a^2 + z^2)^{\frac{1}{2} } -z

The magnitude of the electric field on the z axis is : E = kб 2\pi( 1 - [z / √(z² + a² ) ] )

<u>Given data :</u>

V(z) =2kQ / a²(v(a² + z²) ) -z  

<h3>Determine the electric potential V(z) on the z axis and magnitude of the electric field</h3>

Considering a disk with radius R

Charge = dq

Also the distance from the edge to the point on the z-axis = √ [R² + z²].

The surface charge density of the disk ( б ) = dq / dA

Small element charge dq =  б( 2πR ) dr

dV  \frac{k.dq}{\sqrt{R^2+z^2} } \\\\= \frac{k(\alpha (2\pi R)dR}{\sqrt{R^2+z^2} }  ----- ( 1 )

Integrating equation ( 1 ) over for full radius of a

∫dv = \int\limits^a_o {\frac{k(\alpha (2\pi R)dR)}{\sqrt{R^2+z^2} } } \,

 V = \pi k\alpha [ (a^2+z^2)^\frac{1}{2} -z ]

     = \pi k (\frac{Q}{\pi \alpha ^2})[(a^2 +z^2)^{\frac{1}{2} }  -z ]

Therefore the electric potential V(z) = (\frac{Q}{a^2} ) [ (a^2 + z^2)^{\frac{1}{2} } -z

Also

The magnitude of the electric field on the z axis is : E = kб 2\pi( 1 - [z / √(z² + a² ) ] )

Hence we can conclude that the answers to your question are as listed above.

Light from two lasers is incident on an opaque barrier with a single slit of width 4.0 x 10^-4 m. One laser emits light of wavel
Sergio [31]

Answer:

a) y = 2.4 x 10⁻³ m = 0.24 cm

b) y = 3.2 x 10⁻³ m = 0.32 cm

Explanation:

The formula of Young's Double Slit experiment will be used here:

y = \frac{\lambda L}{d}\\\\

where,

y = distance between dark spots = ?

λ = wavelength

L = distance of screen = 2 m

d = slit width = 4 x 10⁻⁴ m

a) FOR λ = 480 nm = 4.8 x 10⁻⁷ m:

y = \frac{(4.8\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m)(2\ m)}{4\ x\ 10^{-4}\ m}

<u>y = 2.4 x 10⁻³ m = 0.24 cm</u>

<u></u>

a) FOR λ = 640 nm = 6.4 x 10⁻⁷ m:

y = \frac{(6.4\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m)(2\ m)}{4\ x\ 10^{-4}\ m}

<u>y = 3.2 x 10⁻³ m = 0.32 cm</u>

A ray of light travels from air to water. Which statement about the angle of incidence, reflection and refraction is true? a. Th
jeka57 [31]

The law of reflection states that when a ray of light reflects off a surface, the <em>angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection</em>.

In this question, the light ray passes from air to water, an optically denser medium.

Imagine drawing a line to representing the boundary between two mediums. Now imagine drawing a line perpendicular to that boundary line marking where the light ray intersects the boundary line. This second line is called the normal. Whenever a light ray passes into a denser medium with a nonzero angle of incidence, the ray will bend towards the normal, making the <em>angle of refraction smaller than the angle of incidence</em>.

Choice A
