Clarence is taking his dog for a walk around town. After wandering around for an hour, his mother calls him, telling him dinner

will be served soon, and asks him how far away he is. What value would be more helpful for him to give, his distance or his displacement?

11. You want to calculate the displacement of an object thrown over a bridge. Using -10 m/s2 for acceleration due to gravity, wh

Natalka [10]

Displacement is d

Vf² = Vi² + 2 g d

(-20²) = (+10²) + 2 (-9.8) d

-19.6 d = 300

d = -15.3 m

negative means lower

time is t

d = Vi t + 1/2 g t²

-15.3 = 10 t + (-4.9) t²

4.9 t² - 10 t -15.3 = 0

t = 3.06 s

Camera flashes charge a capacitor to high voltage by switching the current through an inductor on and off rapidly. In what time

Ber [7]

Answer:

The value is $\Delta t = 4.0 *10^{-7} \ s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The current is $\Delta I = 0.100 \ A$

The inductor is $L = 2.0mH = 2.0*10^{-3} \ H$

The voltage induced is $\epsilon = 500 V$

Generally the emf induced is mathematically represented as

$\epsilon = L * \frac{\Delta I }{\Delta t }$

Here $\Delta t$ is the time taken

=> $\Delta t = \frac{L * \Delta I }{\epsilon }$

=> $\Delta t = \frac{2*10^{-3} * 0.100 }{500 }$

=> $\Delta t = 4.0 *10^{-7} \ s$

Be sure to answer all parts. Assume the diameter of a neutral helium atom is 1.40 × 102 pm. Suppose that we could line up helium

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

The number of atoms are $1.86\times10^{8}$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

Diameter $D = 1.40\times10^{2}\ pm$

$D=1.40\times10^{2}\times10^{-12}\ m$

Distance = 2.60 cm

We calculate the number of atoms

Using formula of numbers of atoms

$Number\ of\ atoms =\dfrac{2.60\times10^{-2}}{1.40\times10^{2}\times10^{-12}}$

$Number\of\atoms =1.86\times10^{8}$

Hence, The number of atoms are $1.86\times10^{8}$ .

A 50 kg pitcher throws a baseball with a mass of 0. 15 kg. If the ball is thrown with a positive velocity of 35 m/s and there is

dsp73

The velocity of the pitcher at the given mass is 0.1 m/s.

The given parameters:

<em>Mass of the pitcher, m₁ = 50 kg</em>
<em>Mass of the baseball, m₂ = 0.15 kg</em>
<em>Velocity of the ball, u₂ = 35 m/s</em>

<em />

Let the velocity of the pitcher = u₁

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum to determine the velocity of the pitcher as shown below;

m₁u₁ = m₂u₂

$u_1 = \frac{m_2 u_2}{m_1} \\\\u_1 = \frac{0.15 \times 35}{50} \\\\u_1 = 0.105 \ m/s\\\\u_1 \approx 0.1 \ m/s$

Thus, the velocity of the pitcher at the given mass is 0.1 m/s.
