All ball is thrown up with a vertical velocity of 54 m/s and a horizontal velocity of 39 m/s. Calculate how many seconds it will

VikaD [51]

5.5 s

Explanation:

The time it takes for the ball to reach its maximum height can be calculated using

$v_y = v_{0y} - gt \Rightarrow t = \dfrac{v_{0y}}{g}$

since $v_y = 0$ at the top of its trajectory. Plugging in the numbers,

$t = \dfrac{(54\:\text{m/s})}{(9.8\:\text{m/s}^2)} = 5.5\:\text{s}$

In Millikan's oil drop experiment an oil drop is at rest between two large plates separated by 1.3 cm when the potential differe

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

Mass of the oil drop, $m=3.01\times 10^{-15}\ kg$

Explanation:

Potential difference between the plates, V = 400 V

Separation between plates, d = 1.3 cm = 0.013 m

If the charge carried by the oil drop is that of six electrons, we need to find the mass of the oil drop. It can be calculated by equation electric force and the gravitational force as :

$qE=mg$

$m=\dfrac{qE}{g}$

$q=6e$ , e is the charge on electron

E is the electric field, $E=\dfrac{V}{d}=\dfrac{400}{0.013}=30769.23\ V/m$

$m=\dfrac{6\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 30769.23}{9.8}$

$m=3.01\times 10^{-15}\ kg$

So, the mass of the oil drop is $3.01\times 10^{-15}\ kg$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

Consider two massless springs connected in parallel. Springs 1 and 2 have spring constants k1 and k2 and are connected via a thi

77julia77 [94]

Answer:

k1 + k2

Explanation:

Spring 1 has spring constant k1

Spring 2 has spring constant k2

After being applied by the same force, it is clearly mentioned that spring are extended by the same amount i.e. extension of spring 1 is equal to extension of spring 2.

x1 = x2

Since the force exerted to each spring might be different, let's assume F1 for spring 1 and F2 for spring 2. Hence the equations of spring constant for both springs are

k1 = F1/x -> F1 =k1*x

k2 = F2/x -> F2 =k2*x

While F = F1 + F2

Substitute equation of F1 and F2 into the equation of sum of forces

F = F1 + F2

F = k1*x + k2*x

= x(k1 + k2)

Note that this is applicable because both spring have the same extension of x (I repeat, EXTENTION, not length of the spring)

Considering the general equation of spring forces (Hooke's Law) F = kx,

The effective spring constant for the system is k1 + k2
