kati45 [8]
Most objects move at a constant speed because of friction and acceleration. The constant speed keeps them in place, and keeps a balance.

A proton with charge 1.601019 As is moving at 2.4105 m/s through a magnetic field of 4.5 T. You want to find the force on the pr
Whitepunk [10]

The force on the proton is 17.4 N.

<h3>What is the force on the proton?</h3>

Now we know that the proton is positively charged and that the force on the charge as it moved through the magnetic field could be given by the relation; F = qvB

Where;

F = force

q = charge

v = velocity

B = magnetic field

Having said this, we can see that;

q = 1.601019 As or C

v =  2.4105 m/s

T = 4.5 T

F =  1.601019 As * 2.4105 m/s * 4.5 T

F = 17.4 N

A ball is thrown vertically upwards with an initial velocity of 20.00 m/s. Neglecting air resistance, how long is the ball in th
algol [13]

Answer:

1) The greatest height attained by the ball equals 20.387 meters.

2) The time it takes for the ball to reach 15 meters approximately equals 1 second.

Explanation:

The greatest height will be attained when the ball stop's in the air and starts falling back to the earth.

thus using third equation of kinematics we obtain the height attained as

v^2=u^2+2as

where

'v' is the final speed of the ball

'u' is the initial speed of the ball

'a' is the acceleration that the ball is under which in this case equals 9.81 m/s^{2}

's' is the distance it covers

Thus for maximum height applying the values in the equation we get

0=20^{2}-2\times 9.81\times h\\\\\therefore h=\frac{20^{2}}{2\times 9.81}=20.387meters

Using the same equation we can find the speed of the ball when it reaches 15 meters of height as  

v^2=20^{2}-2\times 9.81\times 15\\\\v^{2}=105.7\\\\\therefore v=10.28m/s

the time it takes to reduce the velocity to this value can be found by first equation of kinematics as

v=u+at\\\\t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\\t=\frac{10.28-20}{-9.81}=0.991seconds\approx 1second

A car sitting at a red light begins to accelerate at 2 m/s2 when the light turns green. It continues with this acceleration unti
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

    x_total = 600 m

Explanation:

This is an exercise and kinematics, let's find the time it takes to reach the velocity  20 m / s

          v = v₀ + a t

           

as part of rest v₀ = 0

          t = v / a

          t = 20/2

          t = 10 s

let's find the distance traveled in this time

          x₁ = vo t + ½ a t2

          x₁ = 0 + ½ 2 10²

          x₁ = 100 m

The remaining time is

          t₂ = 35 - t

          t₂ = 35 - 10

          t₂ = 25 s

as in this range it has a constant speed

          v = x₂ / t₂

          x₂ = v t₂

          x₂ = 20  25

          x₂ = 500 m

the total distance traveled is

           x_total = x₁ + x₂

           x_total = 100 + 500

           x_total = 600 m
