A quarterback throws a football with an initial velocity v at an angle θ above horizontal. Assume the ball leaves the quarterbac

k’s hand at ground level and moves without air resistance. All portions of this problem will produce algebraic expressions in terms of v, θ, and g. Let the origin of the Cartesian coordinate system be the ballʼs initial position.
(a): Write an expression for the magnitude of the football’s initial vertical velocity v0y.
(b): Find an expression for the magnitude of the football’s initial horizontal velocity v0x.

(a) The y-component or vertical velocity is calculated using:
Vy = Vsin(∅)

(b) The x-component or horizontal velocity is calculated using:
Vx = Vcos(∅)

488 J of work is done to a box which is moved across the floor for a distance of 8.9 m. What net force is required to act on the
kvv77 [185]
According to the formula
a = f \times d
Where a is work, f is force and d is the distance that box was moved over. And from that formula, you can get that f = a/d and that is 54.83N of force

Light rays bend as they pass from air into water at an angle (not 90 degrees). this is refraction. air water normal incident ray
xxTIMURxx [149]

When light ray pass from air into water, its speed and wavelength change only the frequency of the light doesn't change.

Light travels slower in a medium of higher refractive index. It bends because of this change in speed. The wavelength of light also changes in order to maintain the constant frequency.

Calculate the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of Earth due to the Moon.
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

g'_h=1.096\times 10^{-5}\ m.s^{-2}

Explanation:

We know that the gravity on the surface of the moon is,

  • g'=\frac{g}{6}
  • g'=1.63\ m.s^{-2}

<u>Gravity at a height h above the surface of the moon will be given as:</u>

g'_h=\frac{G.m}{(r+h)^2} ..........................(1)

where:

G = universal gravitational constant

m = mass of the moon

r = radius of moon

We have:

  • G=6.67\times 10^{-11}\ m^3.s^{-2}.kg^{-1}
  • m=7.35\times 10^{22}\ kg
  • r=1.74\times 10^6\ m
  • h=384.4\times 10^6\ m is the distance between the surface of the earth and the moon.

Now put the respective values in eq. (1)

g'_h=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 7.35\times 10^{22}}{(1.74\times 10^6+384.4\times 10^6)^2}

g'_h=1.096\times 10^{-5}\ m.s^{-2} is the gravity on the moon the earth-surface.
