Answer:

12.1 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity = 0

s = Displacement = 120 m

a = Acceleration due to gravity on Moon = 1.67 m/s²

Equation of motion

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow -u^2=2as-v^2\\\Rightarrow -u^2=2\times -1.67\times 120-0^2\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{2\times 1.67\times 120}\\\Rightarrow u=20.02\ m/s

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{0-20.2}{-1.67}\\\Rightarrow t=12.1\ s

Time taken by the rock to hit the bottom of the crater is 12.1 seconds

A flat disk of radius 0.50 m is oriented so that the plane of the disk makes an angle of 30 degrees with a uniform electric fiel
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

The electric flux is 280\ \rm N.m^2/C

Explanation:

Given:

  • Radius of the disc R=0.50 m
  • Angle made by disk with the horizontal \theta=30^\circ
  • Magnitude of the electric Field E=713.0\ \rm N/C

The flux of the Electric Field E due to the are dA in space can be found out by using Gauss Law which is as follows

\phi=\int E.dA

where

  • \phi is the total Electric Flux
  • E is the Electric Field
  • dA is the Area through which the electric flux is to be calculated.

Now according to question we have

=EA\cos\theta \\=713\times 3.14\times 0.5^2 \times \cos60^\circ\\=280\ \rm N.m^2/C

Hence the electric flux is calculated.
