I would say the answer is C, because the gravity is constant in the earth's atmosphere.

Hope this answer helps! feel free to ask any additional questions :)

You drop a batitin a stationary elevator and the ball hits the floor in o 50 s. How long does it take for the ball to hit the fl
solmaris [256]

Answer:

option (a) 0.61 s

Explanation:

Given;

Time taken by the ball to reach the ground  = 0.50 s

Let us first calculate the distance through which the ball falls on the ground

from the Newton's equation of motion, we have

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where,  

s is the distance

a is the acceleration

t is the time

here it is the case of free fall

thus, a = g = acceleration due to gravity

u =  initial speed of the ball = 0

on substituting the values, we get

s=0\times 0.50+\frac{1}{2}\times9.8\times0.50^2

or

s = 1.225 m

Now,

when the elevator is moving up with speed of 1.0 m/s

the initial speed of the ball = -1.0 m/s   (as the elevator is moving in upward direction)

thus , we have

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

or

1.225=-1.0\times\ t+\frac{1}{2}\times9.8t^2

or

4.9t^2 - t  - 1.225 = 0

or

t = 0.612 s

hence, the correct answer is option (a) 0.61 s

Rotational dynamics about a fixed axis: A person pushes on a small doorknob with a force of 5.00 N perpendicular to the surface
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

I = 2 kgm^2

Explanation:

In order to calculate the moment of inertia of the door, about the hinges, you use the following formula:

\tau=I\alpha     (1)

I: moment of inertia of the door

α: angular acceleration of the door = 2.00 rad/s^2

τ: torque exerted on the door

You can calculate the torque by using the information about the Force exerted on the door, and the distance to the hinges. You use the following formula:

\tau=Fd        (2)

F: force = 5.00 N

d: distance to the hinges = 0.800 m

You replace the equation (2) into the equation (1), and you solve for α:

Fd=I\alpha\\\\I=\frac{Fd}{\alpha}

Finally, you replace the values of all parameters in the previous equation for I:

I=\frac{(5.00N)(0.800m)}{2.00rad/s^2}=2kgm^2

The moment of inertia of the door around the hinges is 2 kgm^2

With what type of electromagnetic radiation would you observe:
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Green part of the visible spectrum.

X ray part of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Infrared part of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Explanation:

Wien's displacement law

\lambda_{max}=\frac{b}{T}

Where, b = Wien's displacement constant = 2.898×10⁻³ mK

T = Temperature in kelvin

\lambda_{max}=\frac{2.898\times 10^{-3}}{5800}\\\Rightarrow\lambda_{max}=0.499\times 10^{-6}=0.5\mu m=500\ nm

So, the wavelength would be of around the green part of the visible spectrum.

\lambda_{max}=\frac{2.898\times 10^{-3}}{1\times 10^6}\\\Rightarrow\lambda_{max}=2.898\times 10^{-9}=2.898\ nm

So, the wavelength would be of around the X ray part of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Human body temperature = 37°C = 37+273.15 = 310.15 K

\lambda_{max}=\frac{2.898\times 10^{-3}}{37+273.15}\\\Rightarrow\lambda_{max}=\frac{2.898\times 10^{-3}}{310.15}\\\Rightarrow\lambda_{max}=9.34\times 10^{-6}=934\ nm

So, the wavelength would be of around the Infrared part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
