A basketball player standing under the hoop shoots the ball straight up with an initial velocity of v0Part (a) What is the maxim

um height, h (in meters), above the launch point the basketball will achieve?
Physics

Mama L [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Maximum height will be h=\sqrt{\frac{v_0^2}{2g}}

Explanation:

We have given initial velocity through which basketball is thrown =v_0

Acceleration due to gravity =g\  m/sec^2

At maximum height velocity will be zero

So final velocity v = 0 m /sec

According to third equation of motion v^2=u^2+2gh

0^2=v_0^2-2gh ( Negative sign is due to upward acceleration )

h=\sqrt{\frac{v_0^2}{2g}}

A student notices that an inflated balloon gets larger when it is warmed by a lamp. Which best describes the mass of the balloon
nirvana33 [79]
It gets larger because
well let me give you an example
so today in class we looked at a lava lamp with wax inside and there was a lightbulb at the bottom.
we watched as the wax floated up because the molecules inside the wax spreads out and makes the wax less dense.
the wax floats up because (which is related to the balloon getting bigger) the wax is getting less dense and the particles get bigger which ALSO makes the wax less dense.
hope this helps and hope you can relate it to your problem! say thanks if I did help AT ALL! :)

50g of ice at 0°C is mixed with 50g of water at 80°C, what will be the final temperature of a mixture in
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

0° C

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of ice, m = 50g

Mass of water, m(w) = 50g

Temperature of ice, T(i) = 0° C

Temperature of water, T(w) = 80° C

Also, it is known that

Specific heat of water, c = 1 cal/g/°C

Latent heat of ice, L(w) = 89 cal/g

Let us assume T to be the final temperature of mixture.

This makes the energy balance equation:

Heat gained by ice to change itself into water + heat gained by melted ice(water) to raise its temperature at T° C = heat lost by water to reach at T° C

m(i).L(i) + m(i).c(w)[T - 0] = m(w).c(w)[80 - T], on substituting, we have

50 * 80 + 50 * 1(T - 0) = 50 * 1(80 - T)

4000 + 50T = 4000 - 50T

0 = 100 T

T = 0° C

Thus, the final temperature is 0° C

Nose bleeding occurs as we move towards high altitude, why?
Irina18 [472]
Nosebleeds can be caused by being up in a very high altitude. As you climb higher, the amount of oxygen in the air decreases. This makes the air thinner and dryer, which can in turn cause the inside of your nose to crack and bleed.F
