Tachyons are a putative class of particles which able to travel faster than the speed of light. Tachyons were first proposed by physicist Arnold Sommerfeld, and named by Gerald Feinberg. The word tachyon derives from the Greek (tachus), meaning "speedy.".

A person throws a pumpkin at a horizontal speed of 4.0 — off a cliff. The pumpkin travels 9.5 m horizontally
emmainna [20.7K]

Complete Question

A person throws a pumpkin at a horizontal speed of   4.0 m/s off a cliff. The pumpkin travels 9.5m horizontally before it hits the ground. We can ignore air resistance.What is the pumpkin's vertical displacement during the throw? What is the pumpkin's vertical velocity when it hits the ground?

Answer:

The  pumpkin's vertical displacement  is  H = 27 .67 \ m

The  pumpkin's vertical velocity when it hits the ground is  v_v__{f}} = 23.298 \  m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  horizontal speed is  v_h  =  4 m/s

    The horizontal distance traveled is  d =  9.5 \ m

The horizontal distance traveled is mathematically represented as

           S =  v_h * t

Where t is the time taken

substituting values

          9.5 =  4 * t

   =>     t =  \frac{9.5}{4}

            t = 2.38 \ sec

Now the vertical displacement is mathematically represented as

        H  =  v_v t  +  \frac{1}{2} a_v t^2

now the vertical velocity before the throw is  zero

    So

          H =  0 +  \frac{1}{2} (9.8) * (2.375)^2

          H = 27 .67 \ m

Now the final vertical velocity  is mathematically represented as

          v_v__{f}} =  v_v + at

  substituting values

             v_v__{f}} =  0 + (9.8)* (2.375)

            v_v__{f}} = 23.298 \  m/s

A grandfather clock depends on the period of a pendulum to keep correct time.(ii) Suppose a grandfather clock is calibrated corr
ANEK [815]

The grandfather clock will now run slow (Option A).

<h3>What is Time Period of an oscillation?</h3>
  • The time period of an oscillation refers to the time taken by an object to complete one oscillation.
  • It is the inverse of frequency of oscillation; denoted by "T".

Now,

  • \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}, where L is the length and g is the gravitational constant, is the formula for a pendulum's period.
  • The period will increase as one climbs a very tall mountain because g will slightly decrease.
  • Due to this and the previous issue, the clock runs slowly and it seems that one second is longer than it actually is.

Hence, the grandfather clock will now run slow (Option A).

An electric field is produced by the very long, uniformly charged rod drawn above. If the strength of the electric field is E1 a
Debora [2.8K]

Answer: hello the complete question is attached below

answer :

r2 = 4r1

Explanation:

Electric field strength = F / q

we will assume the rod has an infinite length

For an infinitely charged rod

E ∝ 1/ r

considering two electric fields E1 and E2 at two different locations as described in the question

E1/E2 = r1/r2 ----- ( 2 )

<u>Calculate for r2 when E2 = E1/4 </u>

back to equation 2

E1 / (E1/4) = r1 / r2

∴ r2 = 4r1

What is the maximum number of unpaired d electrons that an atom or ion can possess?
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

5

Explanation:

The d subshell has 5 orbitals, each capable of holding a maximum of two electrons. Hund's rule tells us that every orbital in a sub-level must first be singly occupied by electrons before any orbital is doubly occupied. Therefore five electrons will fill the five orbitals within the d subshell.
