A ball is thrown straight up from a point 2 m above the ground. The ball reaches a maximum height of 3 m above its starting poin

t and then falls 5 m to the ground. When the ball strikes the ground, what is its displacement from its starting point?

Answer:

2 m

Explanation:

The displacement of any body is the shortest distance in an object's path between its initial and final point.

The ball would travel 3 m from the point of throwing then fall down 5 m to the ground. The total distance traveled is 7 m.

The displacement of the ball will be the distance from the point of throwing to the ground i.e., 2 m as it is the shortest distance between the initial and final point of the ball's journey.

In a mass spectrometer a particle of mass m and charge q is accelerated through a potential difference V and allowed to enter a
Ghella [55]

Answer:

m = B²qR² / 2 V

Explanation:

If v be the velocity after acceleration under potential difference of V

kinetic energy  = loss of electric potential energy

1/2 m v² = Vq ,

v² = 2 Vq / m ----------------------- ( 1 )

In magnetic field , charged particle comes in circular motion in which magnetic force provides centripetal force

magnetic force = centripetal force

Bqv = mv² / R

v = BqR / m

v² = B²q²R² / m²  ------------------------- (2)

from (1) and (2)

B²q²R² / m²  = 2 Vq / m

m = B²q²R² / 2 Vq

m = B²qR² / 2 V

To obtain the same resistance force, a greater force must be exerted in a machine of lower efficiency than in a machine
Sindrei [870]

Answer: True.

Explanation:

A resistance force is also known as friction. And the efficiency of a machine is affected by friction.

A machine of lower efficiency has higher magnitude of friction than a machine of higher efficiency.

Therefore, To obtain the same resistance force, a greater force must be exerted in a machine of lower efficiency than in a machine of higher efficiency. This is true

A jet airliner moving initially at 548 mph
sasho [114]

Let's choose the "east" direction as positive x-direction. The new velocity of the jet is the vector sum of two velocities: the initial velocity of the jet, which is

v_1 =548 mph along the x-direction

v_2 = 343 mph in a direction 67^{\circ} north of east.

To find the resultant, we must resolve both vectors on the x- and y- axis:

v_{1x}= 548 mph

v_{1y}=0

v_{2x} = (343 mph)( cos 67^{\circ})=134.0 mph

v_{2y} = (343 mph)( sin 67^{\circ})=315.7 mph

So, the components of the resultant velocity in the two directions are

v_{x}=548 mph+134 mph=682 mph

v_{y}=0 mph+315.7 mph=315.7 mph

So the new speed of the aircraft is:

v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}=\sqrt{(682 mph)^2+(315.7 mph)^2}=751.5 mph
