Ball A is dropped from the top of a building of height h at the same instant that ball B is thrown vertically upward from the gr

ound. When the balls collide, they are moving n opposite directions, and the speed of A is twice the speed of B. At what height does the collision occur? (Use any variable or symbol stated above as necessary.) Both balls experience constant acceleration once they are �n flight. Choose a coordinate system with the origin at the ground and the upward direction positive. When the balls collide they are at the same height above the ground.

Answer:

2h / 3

Explanation:

Let after time t , collision occurs

distance covered by A

= 1/2gt²

Let u be the initial velocity with which B was thrown upwards

distance by B

= ut - 1/2 gt²

total distance by A and B

h = ut - 1/2 gt² +  1/2gt²

h = ut

t = h / u

velocity of A after t

= gt

= g x h/u

velocity of B after t

= u - gt

= u - g x h/u

given

g x h/u = 2 (u - g x h/u)

2u² - 2gh = gh

u = \sqrt{\frac{3gh}{2} }

t = h / u

= \sqrt{\frac{2h}{3g} }

Distance covered by A

= 1/2 gt²

= 1/2 x 2h/3

= h/3

Height at which collision occured

= h - h/3

= 2h /3

A square loop of wire lies in the x, y plane with opposite corners at (0, 0) and (a, a). The loop carries a current I directed t
Ket [755]

Answer:

Please refer to the figure.

Explanation:

The magnitude of the magnetic field can be found by Biot-Savart Law. We should divide the loop into four components. Each component has a similar solution but their directions are quite different.

The directions can be found by right-hand rule. Point your index finger into the direction of current, point your middle finger towards the target point (0,0,a). Your thumb will show you the direction of magnetic field.

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

-22.7 m/s^2

Explanation:

This is a uniformly accelerated motion, so we can determine the deceleration of the car by using a suvat equation:

v^2-u^2=2as

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the distance covered

For the car in this problem,

u = 27.8 m/s

v = 0

s = 17 m

Solving for a, we find the acceleration:

a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}=\frac{0-27.8^2}{2(17)}=-22.7 m/s^2
