A dense metal sphere is dropped from a 10-meter tower, and at the exact same time an identical metal sphere is thrown horizontal

givi [52]

Answer:

A. Both spheres land at the same time.

Explanation:

The horizontal motion doesn't affect the vertical motion. Since the two spheres have the same initial vertical velocity and same initial height, they land at the same time.

A car travels straight for 20 miles on a road that is 30Â° north of east. What is the east component of the carâ€™s displacement

Over [174]

The east component of the cars displacement is 17.3 miles.

Trigonometric ratio is used to show the relationship between the sides of a right angled triangle and its angles.

Let x represent the east component of the cars displacement.

Using trigonometric ratio:

cos(30) = x / 20

x = 20 * cos(30)

x = 17.3 miles

The east component of the cars displacement is 17.3 miles.

A space probe lands on a newly discovered planet. A small canister is released from the probe and falls a distance of 3 m in 0.5

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

24m/s²

Explanation:

Given

Distance S = 3m

Time of fall = 0.5sec

Required

Acceleration due to gravity

Using the equation of motion

S = ut+1/2gt²

Substitute the given values

3 = 0+1/2g(0.5)²

3 = 1/2(0.25)g

3 = 0.125g

g = 3/0.125

g = 24

Hence the value for the acceleration of gravity on this new planet is 24m/s²

An airplane with an airspeed of 120 km/h has a heading of 30 degree east of North in a wind that is blowing toward the east at 6

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

Velocity of plane relative to ground V_pg = ?

Given the velocity in vector form ,

velocity of plane relative to air V_pw = 120 cos30 i + 120sin30j

V_wg = 60 i

V_pg = V_pw +V_wg

= 120 cos30 i + 120sin30j + 60i

= 164 i + 60 j

magnitude

=251 km / h

The maximum wavelength that an electromagnetic wave can have and still eject electrons from a metal surface is 459 nm. What is t

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

2.7067 eV

Explanation:

h = Planck's constant = $6.626\times 10^{-34}\ m^2kg/s$

c = Speed of light = $3\times 10^8\ m/s$

$\lambda_0$ = Threshold wavelength = 459 nm

Work function is given by

$W_0=\frac{hc}{\lambda_0}\\\Rightarrow W_0=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{459\times 10^{-9}}\\\Rightarrow W_0=4.33072\times 10^{-19}\ J$

Converting to eV

$1\ J=\frac{1}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}\ eV$

$4.33072\times 10^{-19}\ J=4.33072\times 10^{-19}\times \frac{1}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}\ eV=2.7067\ eV$

The work function W0 of this metal is 2.7067 eV
