In one experiment, a student rolls a 2 kg ball such that it collides with a wall with a force of 10,000 N. In a second experimen

t, the student rolls a 5 kg ball such that it collides with the wall at a force of 5000 N. In both experiments, the balls bounce back from the wall and eventually come to rest. Which of the following statements is true regarding the force that the wall exerts on each ball?
a. The wall exerts the same force on both balls since they both bounce back from the same wall in both experiments.
b. The wall exerts a greater force on the 5 kg ball than on the 2 kg ball since a greater force is required to cause the heavier ball to bounce back from the wall.
c. The wall exerts a greater force on the 2 kg ball than on the 5 kg ball since the force from the wall on each ball is equal to the force that each ball exerts on the wall.
d. The answer cannot be determined without knowing the distance each ball rolls before coming to rest.

Answer:

(c) The wall exerts a greater force on the 2 kg ball than on the 5 kg ball since the force from the wall on each ball is equal to the force that each ball exerts on the wall.

Explanation:

According to Newton's third law of motion,"action and reaction are equal and opposite".

If a 2 kg ball exerts a force of 10,000 N on a wall, the wall will also exert a force of 10,000 N on the 2 kg ball but in opposite direction.

Similarly, If a 5 kg ball exerts a force of 5,000 N on a wall, the wall will also exert a force of 5,000 N on the 5 kg ball but in opposite direction.

Regardless of mass of the ball, the wall will exert equal force with which the ball collide with it.

Therefore, the wall exerts a greater force on the 2 kg ball than on the 5 kg ball since the force from the wall on each ball is equal to the force that each ball exerts on the wall.

A constant-volume perfect gas thermometer indicates a pressure of 6.69 kPa at the triple point temperature of water (273.16 K).
mina [271]

Answer:

(a) ΔP=0.0245 kPa

(b) P=9.14 kPa

(c)ΔP=0.0245 kPa

Explanation:

(a) As it is perfect gas we can use

(P₁V₁)/T₁=(P₂V₂)/T₂

Since this constant volume so

P₁/T₁=P₂/T₂

T₂ is change in temperature

T₂=1.00+273.16

T₂=274.16 K

P_{2}=(\frac{6.69}{273.16} )*274.16\\P_{2}=6.71449 kPa

ΔP=6.71449-6.69

ΔP=0.0245 kPa

(b) As

P_{2}=(\frac{6.69}{273.16} )*373.16\\P_{2}=9.14 kPa

(c) Same steps as in part (a)

P_{2}=(\frac{9.14}{373.16} )*374.16\\P_{2}=9.164kPa

ΔP=9.164-9.14

ΔP=0.0245kPa

A ray of light crosses a boundary between two transparent materials. The medium the ray enters has a larger index of refraction.
Liula [17]

The wavelength of the light decreases as it enters into the medium with the greater index of refraction. The wavelength of the light remains constant as it transitions between materials.

Ricardo and Jane are standing under a tree in the middle of a pasture. An argument ensues, and they walk away in different direc
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

a) 24.33 m of distance.

b) 34.55° east of the south.

Explanation:

The question is incomplete. The whole exercise is the following:

<em>"Ricardo and Jane are standing under a tree in the middle of a pasture. An argument ensues, and they walk away in different directions. Ricardo walks 28.0 m in a direction 60.0° west of north. Jane walks 12.0 m in a direction 30.0° south of west. They then stop and turn to face each other. </em>

<em>(a) What is the distance between them? </em>

<em>(b) In what direction should Ricardo walk to go directly toward Jane?</em><em>"</em>

Now that we know what we need to do in this question, let's head for every part of the problem.

<u>a) Distance between Ricardo and Jane</u>

In this case, we need to analyze the given data:

Ricardo (which we will call R) is 28 m from the starting point at 60° west of north, and Jane (J) is 12 m at 30° south of west. So the distance between them, will be the point where they both stop and face each other. This point can be seen in the image attached (See picture).

Let's call the distance between them as "D", to get the distance of D, according to the picture will be:

D = J - R   (1)

However, as they are facing in different angles and directions, we cannot do the difference of their values distance just like that. In order to do that, we need to calculate the components in the "x" and "y" axis of each vector. In that way, we can get the components of x and y of the Distance D, and then, the whole distance between them will be:

D = √Dx² + Dy²     (2)

So, let's get the components of x and y of R and J.

For Ricardo (R):

Rx = R sin60° = 28 sin60° = -24.25 m

Ry = R cos60° = 28 cos60° = 14 m

The sign "-" it's because R it's on the second quadrant, therefore in x, we'll have to add the negative.

For Jane (J):

Jx = J cos30° = 12 cos30° = -10.39 m

Jy = J sin30° = 12 sin30° = -6 m

Again, the negative is added because J is on the third quadrant.

Now that we have the components, let's calculate vector D using expression (1):

Dx = -10.39 - (-24.25) = 13.86 m

Dy = -6 - 14 = -20 m

Now, using expression (2) we can finally know the distance between Jane And Ricardo:

D = √(-20)² + (13.86)²

<h2>D = 24.33 m</h2>

This is the distance between Jane and Ricardo.

b) Direction of Ricardo walking to Jane

In this case, we already have the components of x and y of the distance between them, so, to know the direction:

Tanα = Dy/Dx

α = tan⁻¹ (Dy/Dx)

Replacing the values we have:

α = tan⁻¹ (-20/13.86)

α = 55.45°

Which should south of east or:

β = 90 - 55.45

<h2>β = 34.55°</h2>

Ricardo should walk 34.55° east of south

Hope this helps
