The amount left of a given substance can be calculated through the equation,
                                              A = (A0) x 0.5^n/h
From the given scenario, 
                                           A/A0 = 0.75 = 0.5*(60/h)
The value of h from the equation is 144.565 minutes.

KiRa [710]

Answer:

\frac{V_{e}}{V_{h}}=0.428*10^{2}

Explanation:

From conservation of energy states that

K_{i}+v_{i}=v_{f}+K_{f}\\ as\\K_{i}=0\\K_{f}=1/2mv^{2}\\ v_{i}=qv\\v_{f}=0\\So\\qv=1/2mv^{2}\\ v=\sqrt{\frac{2qv}{m} }\\ Velocity_{electron}=\sqrt{\frac{2qv}{m_{e}} }\\Velocity_{hydrogen}=\sqrt{\frac{2qv}{m_{h}} }\\\frac{V_{e}}{V_{h}}=\sqrt{\frac{\frac{2qv}{m_{e}}}{\frac{2qv}{m_{h}}}}\\\frac{V_{e}}{V_{h}}=\sqrt{\frac{m_{h}}{m_{e}} }\\\frac{V_{e}}{V_{h}}=\sqrt{\frac{1.67*10^{-27} }{9.11*10^{-31} } }\\\frac{V_{e}}{V_{h}}=0.428*10^{2}

The kinematics for the vertical launch we can enter the initial velocity is 11.76 m / s

Given parameters

  • Time t = 2.4 s

To find

  • Initial velocity

Kinematics is the part of physics that establishes the relationships between the position, velocity, and acceleration of bodies.

In this case we have a vertical launch

          y = y₀ + v₀ t - ½ g t²

Where y and y₀ are the final and initial positions, respectively, v₀ the initial velocity, g the acceleration of gravity (g = 9.8 m / s²) and t the time

   

With the ball in hand, its position is zero

         0 = 0 + v₀ t - ½ g t²

         v₀ t - ½ g t² = 0

         v₀ = ½ g t

Let's calculate

         v₀ = ½ 9.8 2.4

         v₀ = 11.76 m / s

In conclusion using kinematics for the vertical launch we can enter the initial velocity is 11.76 m / s

Mars has twice the mass of Mercury and is 4 times further away from the Sun. Calculate theratio of the gravitational force from
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

F(Mars) = 2 G m M / (4 R)^2   force of Sun on Mars

F(Merc) = G m M / R^2    force of force of Sun on Mercury

R = distance of Sun from Mercury, m = mass of Mercury

F(Merc) / F(Mars) = 4^2 / 2 = 8

A 5 kg block is sliding down a plane inclined at 30^0 with a constant velocity of 4 m/s. To determine the coefficient of frictio
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

The necessary information is if the forces acting on the block are in equilibrium

The coefficient of friction is 0.577

Explanation:

Where the forces acting on the object are in equilibrium, we have;

At constant velocity, the net force acting on the particle = 0

However, the frictional force is then given as

F = mg sinθ

Where:

m = Mass of the block

g = Acceleration due to gravity and

θ = Angle of inclination of the slope

F = 5×9.81×sin 30 = 24.525 N

Therefore, the coefficient of friction is given as

24.525 N = μ×m×g × cos θ = μ × 5 × 9.81 × cos 30 = μ × 42.479

μ × 42.479 N= 24.525 N

∴ μ = 24.525 N ÷ 42.479 N = 0.577
