A small child gives a plastic frog a big push at the bottom of a slippery 2.0 meter long, 1.0 meter high ramp, starting it with

a speed of 5.0 m/s. What is the frog's speed as it flies off the top of the ramp?

Refer to the diagram shown below.

Because the ramp is slippery, ignore dynamic friction.
Let m =  the mass of the frog.
g = 9.8 m/s²

The KE (kinetic energy) at the bottom of the ramp is
KE₁ = (1/2)*(m kg)*(5 m/s)² = 12.5 m J

Let v =  the velocity at the top of the ramp.
The KE at the top of the ramp is
KE₂ = (1/2)*m*v²= 0.5 mv² J
The PE (potential energy) at the top of the ramp relative to the bottom is
PE₂ = (m kg)*(9.8 m/s²)*(1 m) = 9.8m J

Conservation of energy requires that
KE₁ = KE₂ + PE₂
12.5m = 0.5mv² + 9.8m
0.5v² = 2.7
v = 2.324 m/s

Answer: 2.324 m/s

Review. From a large distance away, a particle of mass 2.00 g and charge 15.0σC is fired at 21.0 i^ m/s straight toward a second

(a)

Determine the system's initial configuration at ri = infinite particle separation and the system's final configuration at the point of closest approach.

Since the two-particle system is not being affected by any outside forces, we may treat it as an isolated system for momentum and use the momentum conservation law.

m1v1 + m1v2 = (m1+m2)v

The second particle's starting velocity is zero, so:

m1v1  = (m1+m2)v

After substituting the values we get,

v = 6i m/s

(b)

Since the two particle system is also energy-isolated, we may use the energy-conservation principle.

dK + dU = 0

Ki +Ui = Kf + Uf

Substituting the values,

1/2m1v1^2i + 1/2 m2v2^2i + 0 = 1/2m1v1^2f + 1/2m2v2^2f +ke q1q2/rf

The second particle's initial speed is 0 (v2 = 0). Additionally, both the first and second particle's final velocity have the same value, v. Put these values in place of the preceding expression:

1/2m1v1^2i  = 1/2m1v1^2 + 1/2m2v2^2 +ke q1q2/rf

After solving we get,

rf = 2ke q1q2 / m1v1^2 - (m1+m2)v^2

Substituting the values we get,

rf = 3.64m

(c)

v1f = (m1-m2 / m1 + m2) v1i

v1f  = -9i m/s

(d)

v2f =  (2m1/ m1 +m2) v1i

After substituting the values,

v2f = 12i m/ s

Question :

Review. From a large distance away, a particle of mass 2.00 g and charge 15.0 \muμC is fired at 21.0 m/s straight toward a second particle, originally stationary but free to move, with mass 5.00 g and charge 8.50 \muμC. Both particles are constrained to move only along the x axis. (a) At the instant of closest approach, both particles will be moving at the same velocity. Find this velocity. (b) Find the distance of closest approach. After the interaction, the particles will move far apart again. At this time, find the velocity of (c) the 2.00-g particle and (d) the 5.00-g particle. \hat{i}

ra1l [238]

Answer:

- Peat soil

- Loamy soil

- Clay soil

Explanation:

Peat soil is dark, highly decomposed organic matter found in soil.

Loamy soil is a mixture of materials that holds moisture and drains well and also contains coarse grains and allows water to drain quickly.

Clay soil contains medium grains and retains water. Also it contains fine grains and has little space for water.
