Answer:

30.63 m

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Total time (T) spent by the ball in air = 5 s

Maximum height (h) =.?

Next, we shall determine the time taken to reach the maximum height. This can be obtained as follow:

Total time (T) spent by the ball in air = 5 s

Time (t) taken to reach the maximum height =.?

T = 2t

5 = 2t

Divide both side by 2

t = 5/2

t = 2.5 s

Thus, the time (t) taken to reach the maximum height is 2.5 s

Finally, we shall determine the maximum height reached by the ball as follow:

Time (t) taken to reach the maximum height = 2.5 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Maximum height (h) =.?

h = ½gt²

h = ½ × 9.8 × 2.5²

h = 4.9 × 6.25

h = 30.625 ≈ 30.63 m

Therefore, the maximum height reached by the cannon ball is 30.63 m

A photon detector captures a photon with an energy of 4.29 ✕ 10−19 J. What is the wavelength, in nanometers, of the photon?
serious [3.7K]

Answer :  The wavelength of photon is, 4.63\times 10^{2}nm

Explanation : Given,

Energy of photon = 4.29\times 10^{-19}J

Formula used :

E=h\times \nu

As, \nu=\frac{c}{\lambda}

So, E=h\times \frac{c}{\lambda}

where,

\nu = frequency of photon

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{-34}Js

\lambda = wavelength of photon  = ?

c = speed of light = 3\times 10^8m/s

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

4.29\times 10^{-19}J=(6.626\times 10^{-34}Js)\times \frac{(3\times 10^{8}m/s)}{\lambda}

\lambda=4.63\times 10^{-7}m=4.63\times 10^{-7}\times 10^9nm=4.63\times 10^{2}nm

Conversion used : 1nm=10^{-9}m

Therefore, the wavelength of photon is, 4.63\times 10^{2}nm

The magnitude of electrical force between a pair of charged particles is ____ as much when the particles are moved half as far a
Gnesinka [82]

The magnitude of the electrical force between a pair of charged particles is 4 Times as much when the particles are moved half as far apart.

This can be easily understood by Columb's law,

F_{new} = \frac{kQ_{1}Q_{2}}{r^{2}}

which state's that the amount of electrical force experienced by two charged particles is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

∴ \frac{F_{new} }{F_{old} } = \frac{Distance_{new}^{2}  }{Distance_{old}^{2}  }

Now, we know the new distance is half the original distance,

F_{new} = \frac{kQ_{1}Q_{2}}{\frac{r}{2}^{2} } \\F_{new} = 4\frac{kQ_{1}Q_{2}}{r^{2}}

F_{new} = 4F_{old}

The electrical force of attraction or electrostatic force of attraction between two charged particles refers to the amount of attractive or repulsive force that exists between the two charges. This can be calculated by Columb's Law.

A charged particle in physics is a particle that has an electric charge. It might be an ion, such as a molecule or atom having an excess or shortage of electrons in comparison to protons. The same charge is thought to be shared by an electron, a proton, or another primary particle.

Car A starts in Sacramento at 11am. It travels along 400 mile route to Los Angeles at 60 mph. Car B starts from Los Angeles at n
damaskus [11]

Answer:

  • 38.89 miles

Explanation:

from the question we have the following:

distance between Sacramento and los angles = 400 miles

speed of car A = 60 mph

start time of car A = 11 am

speed of car B = 75 mph

start time of car B = 12 pm

distance of Fresno from Los Angeles = 150 miles

  • To start off let's allow car A to travel for one hour (from 11 am to 12 pm), during which it would have covered a distance of 60 miles.
  • Now the time would be 12 pm and the distance between the two cars would be 400 - 60 (distance traveled by car A within 11 am to 12 pm) = 340 miles
  • From 12 pm to the time both cars will meet, the distance covered by car A + distance covered by car B would be equal to 340 miles. Therefore
  • Distance covered by car A = speed x time(t) = 60 x t = 60t
  • Distance covered by car B = speed x time(t) = 75 x t = 75t
  • 60t + 75t = 340 miles
  • 135t = 340
  • t = 2.51 hours
  • Recall that at their meeting point, the distance covered by car B = 75t = 75 x 2.62 = 188.89 miles
  • Since Fresno is 150 miles from Los Angeles, car B which is 188.89 miles from Los Angeles at their meeting point would be 188.89 - 150 = 38.89 miles from Fresno
  • 38.89 miles would also be the distance of car A from Fresno since that is their meeting point.

A banked highway is designed for traffic moving at v 8 km/h. The radius of the curve = 330 m. 50% Part (a) Write an equation for
Monica [59]

Question

A banked highway is designed for traffic moving at v 8 km/h. The radius of the curve = 330 m. 50% Part (a) Write an equation for the tangent of the highway's angle of banking. Give your equation in terms of the radius of curvature r, the intended speed of the turn v, and the acceleration due to gravity g

Part (b) what is the angle of banking of the highway? Give your answer in degrees

Answer:

a. Equation of Tangent

tan(θ) = v²/rg

b. Angle of the banking highway

θ = 0.087°

Explanation:

Given

Radius of the curve = r = 330m

Acceleration of gravity = g = 9.8m/s²

Velocity = v = 8km/h = 8 * 1000/3600

v = 2.22 m/s

a . Write an equation for the tangent of the highway's angle of banking

The Angle is calculated by

tan(θ) = v²/rg

θ = tan-1(v²/rg)

b.

Part (b) what is the angle of banking of the highway? Give your answer in degrees

θ = tan-1(v²/rg)

Substituting the values of v,g and r

θ = tan-1(2.22²/(330 * 9.8)

θ = tan-1(0.001523933209647)

θ = 0.087314873580116°

θ = 0.087°
