A ball thrown vertically upward is caught by the thrower after 2.93 s. Find the initial velocity of the ball. The acceleration o
almond37 [142]

Answer:

The initial velocity of the ball is 28.714 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

time of flight of the ball, t = 2.93 s

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

initial velocity of the ball, u = ?

The initial velocity of the ball is given by;

v = u + (-g)t

where;

v is the final speed of the ball at the given time, = 0

g is negative because of upward motion

0 = u -gt

u = gt

u = (9.8 x 2.93)

u = 28.714 m/s

Therefore, the initial velocity of the ball is 28.714 m/s

a uniform rod is hung at onen end and is partially submerged in water. If the density of the rod is 5/9 than of wter, find the f
34kurt

Answer:

    \frac{h_{liquid} }{ h_{body} } = 5/9

Explanation:

This is an exercise that we can solve using Archimedes' principle which states that the thrust is equal to the weight of the desalted liquid.

         B = ρ_liquid  g V_liquid

let's write the translational equilibrium condition

         B - W = 0

let's use the definition of density

        ρ_body = m / V_body

        m = ρ_body  V_body

        W = ρ_body  V_body  g

we substitute

          ρ_liquid  g  V_liquid = ρ_body  g  V_body

          \frac{\rho_{body}   }{\rho_{liquid} } } =  \frac{V_{liquid}   }{V_{body} } }

In the problem they indicate that the ratio of densities is 5/9, we write the volume of the bar

          V = A h_bogy

Thus

          \frac{V_{liquid} }{V_{1body} } = \frac{ h_{liquid} }{h_{body} }

we substitute

           5/9 = \frac{h_{liquid} }{ h_{body} }

Which type of wave has a longer wavelength: AM radio waves (with frequencies in the kilohertz range) or FM radio waves (with fre
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

AM has longer wavelength

Explanation:

The relation between the wavelength and teh frequency is given by

v = f x λ

Where, f is the frequency and λ be the wavelength.

It shows that the wavelength is inversely proportional to the frequency.

So, higher the frequency, smaller be the wavelength.

So, FM has high frequency than AM, thus, FM has lower wavelength as compared to AM.

What types of cells are likely to have lots of smooth ER?
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

eukaryotic cells

Explanation:

"Smooth endoplasmic reticulum (sER) is (a part of) endoplasmic reticulum that is tubular in form and lacks ribosomes. It is present in eukaryotic cells and is associated with lipid synthesis, carbohydrate metabolism, regulation of calcium concentration, and drug detoxification"
