Answer:

80m, assuming g=10m/s^2

Explanation:

40m/s will be reduced to 0m/s in 4 seconds. 4 seconds x 40m/s would be 160m up, but you will only get half of that because you decelerate linearly to 0m/s. This leaves you with 4 x 20 = 80m.

Answer:

80m

Explanation:

According to the equation of motion, v²= u²+2as

Where v is the final velocity of the body at maximum height= 0m/s

u is the initial velocity of the body = 40m/s

a = -g (negative acceleration due to gravity since the object is thrown upward) = -10m/s²

S = H = the height of the ball above the ground

Substituting the values into the equation given, we will have;

0² = 40²-2(10)H

0 = 1600-20H

-1600 = -20H

H = -1600/-20

H = 80m

The height of the ball above the ground where it stops will be 80m

A magnetic compass is placed near an insulated copper wire. When the wire is connected to a battery and a current is created, th
lawyer [7]

Explanation:

When the wire is connected to a battery, the compass needle moves and changes its position. This happens because the needle magnetizes the copper wire, thus,  creating a force.

While the current in the wire produces a magnetic field and exerts a force on the needle. The insulation on the wire becomes energized and exerts a force on the needle. Hence, the compass needle moves and changes its position.

A rock slides down from A to B along the inside surface of a frictionless hemispherical bowl. As the rock slides, mechanical ene
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

the normal force on the rock acts perpendicular to the bowl's surface.

Explanation:

As we know that Normal force is the reaction force of two contact surfaces which always act perpendicular to the contact surfaces

Here we know that the rock is moving inside the bowl

So Normal force on the rock must perpendicular to the surface of the bowl which always passes through the center of the bowl.

Since the rock is moving in vertical plane so it must have two acceleration

1) Tangential acceleration which will increase the magnitude of the speed along the tangential path

2) Centripetal acceleration which will change the direction of the rock

So here only correct option will be

the normal force on the rock acts perpendicular to the bowl's surface.

If a person whirls an object horizontally in a counter clockwise direction and the string breaks at point P as shown, what path
Nata [24]

when an object is revolving in circular path then its velocity is always along the tangent of the circular path

so while moving in circular path if the string is break then due to law of inertia the object will always move in the direction of initial motion

As we know that as per law of inertia if an object will not change its state of motion or state of rest until some external force will act on it.

So here also the object will move along its tangential direction once the string will break

so here the correct path will be

What is the de broglie wavelength of a 149-g baseball traveling at 95.4 mph? (1 mile = 1.609 km, h = 6.63 × 10–34 j·s)?
boyakko [2]

The solution for the problem is:

Wavelength = Planck’s constant/(mass*velocity) 

Planck’s constant= 6.63*10^-34 with units of J-s or kg-m^2/s^2-s 

mass = 149g = 0.149 kg 

velocity = 95.4.mi/1hr(1609.3m/1mi)(1hr/3600sec) = 42.65m/s 

h/mv = 6.63*10^-34 kg-m^2/s^2-s/(42.65m/s*0.149kg)

wavelength = 1.04 *10^-34 m
