A football is thrown toward a receiver with an initial speed of 16.9 m/sat an angle of 36.5◦ above the horizontal. At that insta

nt, the receiver is 16.8 m from the quarterback. The acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s2.With what constant speed should the receiver run to catch the football at the level at which it was thrown? Answer in units of m/s

Answer:

vr = 5.39 m/s

Explanation:

vi = 16.9 m/s

∅ = 36.5º

d = 16.8 m

g = 9.81 m/s²

vr = ?

We have to get <em>Xmax = R</em>  as follows

R = vi²*Sin (2∅) / g

⇒  R = (16.9 m/s)²*Sin (2*36.5º) / (9.81 m/s²)

⇒  R = 27.842 m

Now we can get t, using the formula:

R = vi*Cos ∅*t     ⇒   t = R / (vi*Cos ∅)

⇒   t = (27.842 m) / (16.9 m/s*Cos 36.5º) = 2.049 s

We get x (the distance which the receiver must be run) as follows

x = R - d

⇒  x = 27.842 m - 16.8 m = 11.042 m

Finally we have

vr = x / t

⇒  vr = 11.042 m / 2.049 s = 5.39 m/s

Answer:

1.170*10^-3 m

3.23*10^-32 m

Explanation:

To solve this, we apply Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.

the principle states that, "if we know everything about where a particle is located, then we know nothing about its momentum, and vice versa." it also can be interpreted as "if the uncertainty of the position is small, then the uncertainty of the momentum is large, and vice versa"

Δp * Δx = h/4π

m(e).Δv * Δx = h/4π

If we make Δx the subject of formula, by rearranging, we have

Δx = h / 4π * m(e).Δv

on substituting the values, we have

for the electron

Δx = (6.63*10^-34) / 4 * 3.142 * 9.11*10^-31 * 4.95*10^-2

Δx = 6.63*10^-34 / 5.67*10^-31

Δx = 1.170*10^-3 m

for the bullet

Δx = (6.63*10^-34) / 4 * 3.142 * 0.033*10^-31 * 4.95*10^-2

Δx = 6.63*10^-34 / 0.021

Δx = 3.23*10^-32 m

therefore, we can say that the lower limits are 1.170*10^-3 m for the electron and 3.23*10^-32 for the bullet

Who said an atom is like a ball with no charge?
g100num [7]

Answer:

Thomson

Explanation:

Thomson in 1904 soon after the discovery of the electron, but before the discovery of the atomic nucleus, the model tried to explain two properties of atoms then known: that electrons are negatively-charged particles and that atoms have no net electric charge.
