A ball is thrown straight upward and rises to a maximum height of 18.0 m

above its launch point. at what height above its launch point has the

speed of the ball decreased to one-half of its initial value?

-----------------------

kinematic equation

v^2=u^2-2as; v0=,s=18,a=-10m/s/s

u=root 360


(u/2)^2=u^2-2as

=>s=13.5m

A small charged sphere is attached to a thread and placed in an electric field. The other end of the thread is anchored so that
Katyanochek1 [597]

To find the magnitude and direction of the electric field, let us find the horizontal and vertical components of the field separately, then we will use those values to calculate the total magnitude and direction.

The tension in the thread is 6.57×10⁻²N and the thread is aligned horizontally, so the tension force is directed entirely horizontally. The sphere is in static equilibrium, therefore the horizontal component of the electrostatic force acting on the sphere, Fx, must act in the opposite direction of the tension and have a magnitude of 6.57×10⁻²N. We know this equation relating a charge, an electric field, and the force that the field exerts on the charge:

F = Eq

F is the electric force, E is the electric field, and q is the charge

Let us adjust the equation for only the horizontal components of the above quantities:

Fx = (Ex)(q)

Fx is the horizontal component of the electric force and Ex is the horizontal component of the electric field.

Given values:

F = 6.57×10⁻²N

q = 6.80×10³C

Plug in these values and solve for Ex:

6.57x10⁻² = Ex(6.80×10³)

<u>Ex = 9.66×10⁻⁶N/C</u>

<u />

Since the sphere is in static equilibrium, the vertical component of the electrostatic force acting on the sphere, Fy, must have the same magnitude and act in the opposite direction of the sphere's weight. If we assume the weight to act downwards, then Fy must act upward.

We know the weight of the sphere is given by:

W = mg

W is the weight, m is the mass, and g is the acceleration of objects due to earth's gravity field near its surface.

We also know this equation:

F = Eq

Let us adjust for the vertical components:

Fy = (Ey)(q)

Set Fy equal to W and we get:

(Ey)(q) = mg

Given values:

q = 6.80×10³C

m = 0.018kg

g = 9.81m/s²

Plug in the values and solve for Ey:

(Ey)(6.80×10³) = 0.018(9.81)

<u>Ey = 2.60×10⁻⁵N/C</u>

<u />

Let's now use the Pythagorean theorem to find the total magnitude of the electric field:

E = \sqrt{Ex^{2}+Ey^{2}}

E = 2.77×10⁻⁵N/C

The direction of the electric field is given by:

θ = tan⁻¹(Ey/Ex)

θ = 20.4° off the horizontal

You are loading a refrigerator weighing 2267 N onto a truck, using a wheeled cart. The refrigerator is raised 1.09 m to the truc
meriva

Answer:

a).

Wmin= 2471.03 J

W=1603.01 J

Explanation:

Weight, w= 2267 N

w= m*g\\W=m*g*h \\W=w*h

Minimum work 'h' is the distance the refrigerator is raised h=1.09m

W_{min}=2267 N* 1.09m\\W_{min}=2471.03 J

The motion is no frictional force so, the magnitude of the force with a angle of 45.0° is find using:

W=m*g*h'\\h'= sin(45)\\W=2267N*sin(45)\\W=1603.01 J

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

3.066×10^21  photons/(s.m^2)

Explanation:

The power per area is:

Power/A = (# of photons /t /A)×(energy / photon)

E/photons = h×c/(λ)

photons /t /A = (Power/A)×λ /(h×c)  

photons /t /A = (P/A)×λ/(hc)

photons /t /A = (680)×(678×10^-9)/(6.63×10^-34)×(3×10^-8)

                      = 3.066×10^21

Therefore, the number of photons per second per square meter 3.066×10^21  photons/(s.m^2).

lesya692 [45]

Answer:252 miles

Explanation:

Given

During his way to mountain it took 7 hr to drive

and during his return trip it took 4 hr to return

Let x be the distance between home and mountain

average speed for return is  27 miles per hour faster than his former trip

let v be the speed on his way to mountain thus v+27 is his return speed

thus 7=\frac{x}{v}----1

for return trip

4=\frac{x}{v+27}-----2

divide  1 & 2

\frac{7}{4}=\frac{x\cdot (v+27)}{v\cdot x}

7v=4v+4\cdot 27

3v=4\cdot 27

v=36 mph

thus x=7\times 36=252\ miles
