A hockey puck is struck so that it slides at a constant speed and strikes the far side of the rink, 58.2 m away. The shooter hea

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

$v = 33.66 m/s$

Explanation:

Let hockey puck is moving at constant speed v

so here we have

$d = vt$

so time taken by the puck to strike the wall is given as

$t = \frac{58.2}{v}$

now time taken by sound to come back at the position of shooter is given as

$t_2 = \frac{58.2}{340}$

$t_2 = 0.17s$

so we know that total time is 1.9 s

$1.9 = t + t_2$

$1.9 = t + 0.17$

$1.9 - 0.17 = t$

$t = 1.73 s$

now we have

$1.73 = \frac{58.2}{v}$

$v = 33.66 m/s$

You charge an initially uncharged 65.7-mf capacitor through a 39.1-Ï resistor by means of a 9.00-v battery having negligible int

uysha [10]

In a RC-circuit, with the capacitor initially uncharged, when we connect the battery to the circuit the charge on the capacitor starts to increase following the law:
$Q(t) = Q_0 (1-e^{-t/\tau})$
where t is the time, $Q_0 = CV$ is the maximum charge on the capacitor at voltage V, and $\tau = RC$ is the time constant of the circuit.
Using this law, we can answer all the three questions of the problem.

1) Using $R=39.1 \Omega$ and $C= 65.7 mF=65.7\cdot 10^{-3}F$ , the time constant of the circuit is:
$\tau = RC=(39.1 \Omega)(65.7 \cdot 10^{-3}F)=2.57 s$

2) To find the charge on the capacitor at time $t=1.95 \tau$ , we must find before the maximum charge on the capacitor, which is
$Q_0 = CV=(65.7 \cdot 10^{-3}F)(9 V)=0.59 C$
And then, the charge at time $t=1.95 \tau$ is equal to
$Q(1.95 \tau) = Q_0 (1-e^{-t/\tau})=(0.59 C)(1-e^{-1.95})=0.51 C$

3) After a long time (let's say much larger than the time constant of the circuit), the capacitor will be fully charged, this means its charge will be $Q_0 = 0.59 C$ . We can see this also from the previous formule, by using $t=\infty$ :
$Q(t) = Q_0 (1-e^{-\infty})=Q_0(1-0) = 0.59 C$

What happens to the density of a given substance if you increase the amount of the substance that you have?

Amanda [17]

Have you ever looked up the density of a substance ? You ought to try it. Go ahead. Pick a substance, then go online or open up an actual book and find its density. You will never see any particular volume mentioned along with the density . . . because it doesn't matter. The whole idea of density is that it describes the substance, no matter how much or how little you have of it. The density of a tiny drop of water under a microscope is the same as the density of a supertanker-ful of water.

The mechanical energy of the girl will be conserved because the system is isolated and the initial potential energy will be equal to final kinetic energy.

<h3>What is the law of conservation of energy?</h3>

The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another.

The change in the potential energy of the launched from a height into the pool without friction from the given height h is calculated by applying the following kinematic equation.

ΔP.E = ΔK.E

where;

ΔP.E is change in potential energy of the child
ΔK.E is change in the kinetic energy of the child

mghf - mghi = ¹/₂mv² - ¹/₂mu²

where;

m is the mass of the girl
g is acceleration due to gravity
hi is the initial height of the girl
hf is the final height when she is launched into the pool
u is the initial velocity
v is the final velocity of the girl

Thus, for every closed or isolated system such as this case, mechanical energy is always conserved because the initial potential energy of the girl will be converted into her final kinetic energy.
