First, calculate how long the ball is in midair. This will depend only on the vertical displacement; once the ball hits the ground, projectile motion is over. Since the ball is thrown horizontally, it originally has no vertical speed. 
t = time vi = initial vertical speed = 0m/s g = gravity = -9.8m/s^2 y = vertical displacement = -45m 
y = .5gt^2 [Basically, in this equation we see how long it takes the ball to fall 45m] -45m = .5 (-9.8m/s^2) * t^2 t = 3.03 s 
Now we know that the ball is midair for 3.03s. Since horizontal speed is constant we can simply use: 
x = horizontal displacement v = horizontal speed = 25m/s t = time = 3.03s 
x = v*t x = 25m/s * 3.03s = 75.76 m Thus, the ball goes about 75 or 76 m from the base of the cliff.

A single-turn circular loop of radius 6 cm is to produce a field at its center that will just cancel the earth's field of magnit
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

The current is  I  = 6.68 \  A

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

     The radius of the loop is  r =  6 \ cm  = 0.06 \ m

     The  earth's magnetic field is B_e =  0.7G=  0.7  G * \frac{1*10^{-4} T}{1 G}  = 0.7 *10^{-4} T

      The  number of turns is  N  =1

Generally the magnetic field generated by the current in the loop is mathematically represented as

        B  =  \frac{\mu_o  * N  *  I}{2 r }

Now for the earth's magnetic field to be canceled out the magnetic field generated by the loop must be equal to the magnetic field out the earth

         B  =  B_e

=>     B_e =  \frac{\mu_o  *  N  *  I  }{ 2 * r}

     Where  \mu is the permeability of free space with value  \mu _o  =   4\pi * 10^{-7} N/A^2

       0.7  *10^{-4}=  \frac{ 4\pi * 10^{-7}  * 1 * I}{2 * 0.06}

=>     I  =  \frac{2 *  0.06 *  0.7 *10^{-4}}{ 4\pi * 10^{-7} * 1}

       I  = 6.68 \  A

An athlete whirls a 7.00 kg hammer 1.8 m from the axis of rotation in a horizontal circle, as
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

A-500 N

Explanation:

The computation of the tension in the chain is shown below

As we know that

F = ma

where

F denotes force

m denotes mass = 7

And, a denotes acceleration

Now for the acceleration we have to do the following calculations

The speed (v) of the hammer is

v = Angular speed × radius

where,

Angular seed = 2 × π ÷ Time Period

So, v = 2 × π × r ÷ P

v = 2 × 3.14 × 1.8 ÷ 1

= 11.304 m/s

Now

a = v^2 ÷ r

= 70.98912 m/s^2

Now the tension is  

T = F = m × a

= 7 × 70.98912

= 496.92384 N

= 500 N

Summerize how friction and inertia act on an object sliding on a flat surface
natta225 [31]
Inertia is when a object in motion will stay in motion or in a standing still state unless acted upon by a unbalancing force.
Friction is when a object slows down because it is rubbing against another object.

If a object is sliding across a surface, theoretically, it would not stop but because it is on a flat surface it would experience friction, this will disperse some of the kinetic energy that it has thus slowing the object down eventually, after some time, to a stop.

Hope this helps! :)

2. Anna mixes 200 g of hot coffee at 90 °C with 50 g of cold water at 3 °C to bring down the temperature of the coffee. Explain
natka813 [3]

The average kinetic energy of the molecules of the coffee will decrease and the speed of the individual molecules will also reduce.

<h3>Temperature of resultant mixture</h3>

The temperature of the resultant mixture will be higher than the cold water temperature and lower than the hot coffee temperature.

Based on the decrease of the resulting temperature (equilibrium temperature) of the mixture, the average kinetic energy of the molecules of the coffee will decrease and the speed of the individual molecules of the hot coffee mixture will reduce, leading to a resultant cold mixture of coffee.
