Initial velocity = $v_0$

acceleration in the downward direction = -9.8 $\frac {m}{s^2}$

Final velocity at the highest point = 0

Maximum height reached = 0.410 m

Now, Using third equation of motion:

$\(v^2 = {v_0}^{2} + 2aH$

$\(0^2 = {v_0}^{2} - 2 \times 9.8 \times 0.410$

${v_0}^{2} = 2 \times 9.8 \times 0.410$

$v_0 = 2.834 \frac {m}{s}$

Speed with which the flea jumps = $2.834 \frac {m}{s}$

A circular loop of wire with a radius of 15.0 cm and oriented in the horizontal xy-plane is located in a region of uniform magne

Answer:

The average emf that will be induced in the wire loop during the extraction process is 37.9 V

Explanation:

The average emf induced can be calculated from the formula

$Emf = -N\frac{\Delta \phi}{\Delta t}$

Where $N$ is the number of turns

$\Delta \phi$ is the change in magnetic flux

$\Delta t$ is the time interval

The change in magnetic flux is given by

$\Delta \phi = \phi _{f} - \phi _{i}$

Where $\phi _{f}$ is the final magnetic flux

and $\phi _{i}$ is the initial magnetic flux

Magnetic flux is given by the formula

$\phi = BAcos(\theta)$

Where $B$ is the magnetic field

$A$ is the area

and $\theta$ is the angle between the magnetic field and the area.

Initially, the magnetic field and the area are pointed in the same direction, that is, $\theta = 0^{o}$

From the question,

B = 1.5 T

and radius = 15.0 cm = 0.15 m

Since it is a circular loop of wire, the area is given by

$A = \pi r^{2}$

∴ $A = \pi (0.15)^{2}$

$A = 0.0225\pi$

∴ $\phi_{i} = (1.5)(0.0225\pi)cos(0^{o} )$

$\phi_{i} = (1.5)(0.0225\pi)$

( NOTE: $cos (0^{o}) = 1$ )

$\phi_{i} = 0.03375\pi$ Wb

For $\phi_{f}$

The field pointed upwards, that is $\theta = 90^{o}$ . Since $cos (90^{o}) = 0$

Then

$\phi_{f} = 0$

Hence,

$\Delta \phi = 0- 0.03375\pi$

$\Delta \phi = - 0.03375\pi$

From the question

$\Delta t = 2.8 ms = 2.8 \times 10^{-3} s$

Here, $N$ = 1

Hence,

$Emf = -N\frac{\Delta \phi}{\Delta t}$ becomes

$Emf = -(1)\frac{-0.03375\pi}{2.8 \times 10^{-3} }$

$Emf = 37.9 V$

Hence, the average emf that will be induced in the wire loop during the extraction process is 37.9 V.

A major-league pitcher can throw a ball in excess of 40.1 m/s. If a ball is thrown horizontally at this speed, how much will it

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

The ball will drop 0.881 m by the time it reaches the catcher.

Explanation:

The position of the ball at time "t" is described by the position vector "r":

r = (x0 + v0x · t, y0 + v0y · t + 1/2 · g · t²)

Where:

x0 = initial horizontal position.

v0x = initial horizontal velocity.

t = time.

y0 = initial vertical position.

v0y = initial vertical velocity.

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.8 m/s² considering the upward direction as positive).

When the ball reaches the catcher, the position vector will be "r final" (see attached figure).

The x-component of the vector "r final", "rx final", will be 17.0 m. We have to find the y-component.

Using the equation of the x-component of the position vector, we can calculate the time it takes the ball to reach the catcher (notice that the frame of reference is located at the throwing point so that x0 and y0 = 0):

x = x0 + v0x · t

17.0 m = 0 m + 40.1 m/s · t

t = 17.0 m/ 40. 1 m/s = 0.424 s

With this time, we can calculate the y-component of the vector "r final", the drop of the ball:

y = y0 + v0y · t + 1/2 · g · t²

Initially, there is no vertical velocity, then, v0y = 0.

y = 1/2 · g · t²

y = -1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · (0.424 s)²

y = -0.881 m

The ball will drop 0.881 m by the time it reaches the catcher.
