A volleyball is hit and experiences a net

Physics
1 answer:
Ierofanga [76]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: 0.25 kg

Explanation:

Given that,

net force = 2 N

acceleration of volleyball = 8 m/s

mass of the volleyball = ?

According to the Newton 2nd law of motion, net force depends on the mass of the object and acceleration by which it moves.

i.e Net force = mass x acceleration

2N = mass x 8m/s²

Mass = 2N / 8m/s²

Mass = 0.25 kg

Thus, the mass of the volleyball is 0.25 kg

ipn [44]

Answer:

Plasma

Explanation:

A Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) is an outburst of energy that occurs near the outer part of the sun's atmosphere which causes a production of plasma along with a magnetic field.

The outermost part of the sun's atmosphere is called the Solar Corona Although difficult to see, the corona can be seen during a total solar eclipse.

Plasma from CME are clouds of magnetized electrically charged particles which the solar wind causes to travel at a speed of 1.6 million km/hr.

Suppose you have two meter sticks, one made of steel and one made of invar (an alloy of iron and nickel), which are the same len
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

  • The difference in length for steel is 2.46 x 10⁻⁴ m
  • The difference in length for invar is 1.845 x 10⁻⁵ m

Explanation:

Given;

original length of steel, L₁ = 1.00 m

original length of invar, L₁ = 1.00 m

coefficients of volume expansion for steel, \gamma_{st.} =  3.6 × 10⁻⁵ /°C

coefficients of volume expansion for invar, \gamma_{in.} =  2.7 × 10⁻⁶ /°C

temperature rise in both meter stick, θ = 20.5°C

Difference in length, can be calculated as:

L₂ = L₁ (1 + αθ)

L₂  = L₁ + L₁αθ

L₂  - L₁ = L₁αθ

ΔL = L₁αθ

Where;

ΔL is difference in length

α is linear expansivity = \frac{\gamma}{3}

Difference in length, for steel at 20.5°C:

ΔL =  L₁αθ

Given;

L₁ = 1.00 m

θ = 20.5°C

\alpha = \frac{\gamma}{3} = \frac{3.6*10^{-5}}{3} = 1.2*10^{-5} /^oC

ΔL  = 1 x 1.2 x 10⁻⁵ x 20.5 = 2.46 x 10⁻⁴ m

Difference in length, for invar at 20.5°C:

ΔL =  L₁αθ

Given;

L₁ = 1.00 m

θ = 20.5°C

\alpha = \frac{\gamma}{3} = \frac{2.7*10^{-6}}{3} = 0.9*10^{-6}/^oC

ΔL  = 1 x 0.9 x 10⁻⁶ x 20.5 = 1.845 x 10⁻⁵ m

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

n = 1,875

Explanation:

The speed of light in vacuum is constant (c) and in a material medium it is

          v = d / t

The refractive index of a material is defined by

         n = c / v

         

Let's look for the speed of light in the material, in general the length that light travels is known, this value is high, x = 1, when we place a block on the road, a small amount is lengthened by the length of the block, which in general is despised

These measurements are made on a digital oscilloscope that allows to stop the signals and measure their differences, that is, the zero is taken when the first ray arrives and the time for the second ray is measured,

         

         v = d / t

         v = 1 / 6.25 10⁻⁹

         v = 1.6 10⁸ m / s

we calculate the refractive index

        n = 3 10⁸ / 1.6 10⁸

        n = 1,875
