Imagine that the ball on the left is given a nonzero initial velocity in the horizontal direction, while the ball on the right c

ontinues to fall with zero initial velocity. What horizontal speed vx must the ball on the left start with so that it hits the ground at the same position as the ball on the right? Express your answer in meters per second to two significant figures.

Answer:

vₓ = xg/2y

Explanation:

In this question, let us  find the time it takes for the ball on the right that has zero initial velocity to reach the ground.

By newton equation of motion we know that

y = v₀ t - ½ g t²

t = 2y / g

This is the time it takes for the ball on the right to reach the ground; at this time the ball on the left travels a distance

vₓ = x/t

vₓ = xg/2y

vₓ = xg/2y

Where we assume that x and y are known.

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.

Radio waves travel 300,000,000 m/s. The frequency is 101,700,000. ehats the wavelength​
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

we have formula of frequency :

frequency(f)= speed of sound(c)/wavelength(λ)

for wavelength we swipe it with frequency as follows

λ=c/f

λ=300,000,000/101,700,000

λ=2.949

How far apart would you have to place the poles of a 1. 5 v battery to achieve the same electric field?
Zarrin [17]

To place the poles of a 1. 5 v battery to achieve the same electric field is 1.5×10−2 m

The potential difference is related to the electric field by:

∆V=Ed

where,

∆V is the potential difference

E is the electric field

d is the distance

what is potential difference?

The difference in potential between two points that represents the work involved or the energy released in the transfer of a unit quantity of electricity from one point to the other.

We want to know the distance the detectors have to be placed in order to achieve an electric field of

E=1v/cm=100v/cm

when connected to a battery with potential difference

∆v=1.5v

Solving the equation,we find

d =  \frac{ \:Δv}{e}

=  \frac{1.5v}{100v/m}

= 1.5 \times 10 {}^{ - 2} m
