Two students are on a balcony 19.1 m above the street. One student throws a ball, b1, vertically downward at 13.9 m/s. At the sa

me instant, the other student throws a ball, b2, vertically upward at the same speed. The second ball just misses the balcony on the way down.
(a) What is the difference in the time the balls spend in the air? s
(b) What is the velocity of each ball as it strikes the ground?
ball thrown downward m/s
ball thrown upward m/s

Answer:

Part a)

t = 2.83 s

Part b)

Ball thrown downwards =v_f = 23.8 m/s

Ball thrown upwards =v_f = 23.8 m/s

Part c)

d = 22.24 m

Explanation:

Part a)

Since both the balls are projected with same speed in opposite directions

So here the time difference is the time for which the ball projected upward will move up and come back at the same point of projection

Afterwards the motion will be same as the first ball which is projected downwards

so here the time difference is given as

\Delta y = 0 = v_y t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

0 = 13.9 t - \frac{1}{2}(9.81) t^2

t = 2.83 s

Part b)

Since the displacement in y direction for two balls is same as well as the the initial speed is also same so final speed is also same for both the balls

so it is given as

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a \Delta y

v_f^2 - (13.9)^2 = (2)(-9.81)(-19.1)

v_f^2 = 567.9

v_f = 23.8 m/s

Part c)

Relative speed of two balls is given as

v_{12} = v_1 - v_2

v_{12} = (13.9) - (-13.9) = 27.8 m/s

now the distance between two balls in 0.8 s is given as

d = v_{12} t

d = 27.8 \times 0.8

d = 22.24 m

Consider a double-slit with a distance between the slits of 0.04 mm and slit width of 0.01 mm. Suppose the screen is a distance
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

The distance between the places where the intensity is zero due to the double slit effect is 15 mm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance between the slits = 0.04 mm

Width = 0.01 mm

Distance between the slits and screen = 1 m

Wavelength = 600 nm

We need to calculate the distance between the places where the intensity is zero due to the double slit effect

For constructive fringe

First minima from center

x_{1}=\dfrac{\lambda D}{2d}

Second minima from center

x_{2}=\dfrac{3\lambda D}{2d}

The distance between the places where the intensity is zero due to the double slit effect

\Delta x_{d}=x_{2}-x_{1}

\Delta x_{d}=\dfrac{3\lambda D}{2d}-\dfrac{\lambda D}{2d}

\Delta x_{d}=\dfrac{\lambda D}{d}

Put the value into the formula

\Delta x_{d}=\dfrac{600\times10^{-9}\times1}{0.04\times10^{-3}}

\Delta x_{d}=0.015 =15\times10^{-3}\ m

\Delta x_{d}=15\ mm

Hence, The distance between the places where the intensity is zero due to the double slit effect is 15 mm.

The units we use to measure the sound intensity level are _____.
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

decibels (dB)

Explanation:

The sound intensity level is a quantity derived from the sound intensity.

The intensity of a wave is defined as the power of the source of the wave divided by the area through which the power of the wave is spread, mathematically:

I=\frac{P}{A}

where

P is the power of the source

A=4\pi r^2 is the surface area over which the wave spreads (assuming that the wave propagates in all directions, it corresponds to the surface area of a sphere of radius r, where r is the distance between the source of the wave and the observer)

For sound waves, the intensity is often expressed using another unit, called decibel (dB), defined as follows:

\beta(dB)=10Log_{10}(\frac{I}{I_0})

where

\beta is the sound intensity level in decibels

I is the intensity of the sound wave

I_0=1\cdot 10^{-12} W/m^2 is the threshold intensity of a sound that a person can normally hear.

D. If a dog has a mass of 12 kg, what is its weight on Neptune?<br> 11.7N/kg
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

133.8 N

Explanation:

Recall that the acceleration of gravity in Neptune is estimated as 11.15 m/s^2

Therefore, the weight of the dog on this planet would be:

Weight = mass x acceleration of gravity = 12 kg x 11.15 m/s^2 = 133.8 N

Why electrons flow in a wire when connected to a battery?
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

The metal atoms in the wire can't move, but their outer electrons can. The force pushes those electrons and they move to further parts of the wire, trying to reach the other end. As the electrons move away, new electrons flow into the wire through the battery to take their place.
