You punt a ball straight up at 20 m/s. What is the balls hangtime

Physics

Natalija [7]3 years ago

The hang time of the ball is 4.08 s

Explanation:

The ball is in free fall motion: this means that it is acted upon gravity only, so its acceleration is the acceleration of gravity,

a=g=-9.8 m/s^2

downward (the negative sign refers to the downward direction).

Since this is a uniformly accelerated motion, we can solve the problem by using the following suvat equation:

v=u+at

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

First we calculate the time it takes for the ball to reach the maximum height, where the velocity is zero:

v = 0

Substituting:

u = +20 m/s

a=-9.8 m/s^2

we find t

t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{0-20}{-9.8}=2.04 s

The motion of the ball is symmetrical, so the total time of flight is just twice the time needed to reach the maximum height, therefore:

T=2t=2(2.04)=4.08 s

Rama09 [41]

If the maximum emf of the ac generator is 20 V and the maximum potential difference across the resistor is 16 V Then the maximum potential difference across the inductor is 4 V.

Calculation:

Step-1:

It is given that the RL circuit is connected to a 20 V ac generator. The maximum potential difference across the resistor is 16 V. It is required to find the maximum potential drop across the inductor.

Step-2:

The maximum emf of the generator is equal to the sum of the maximum potential difference across the resistor and the maximum potential difference across the inductor.

Therefore,

The maximum potential difference across the inductor + Maximum maximum potential difference across the resistor = Maximum emf of the generator

Thus,

Maximum maximum potential difference across the inductor + 16 V = 20 V

Therefore,

Maximum maximum potential difference across the inductor = 20 V - 16 V = 4 V

Explain what happens to a light wave that hits the surface of a pool.
brilliants [131]

A light wave that hits the surface of a pool gets refracted and gives us an apparent image of the surface of the pool, following the concepts of refraction.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Let’s recall the concept of refraction when a light wave passes from medium of rarer to denser. There is a change in the speed of light while travelling from medium of rarer to denser.

There can be a change in the direction as well. This property is known as “Refraction” and the best example to see refraction is watching the surface of a clean pond, lake or pool.

When the light travels from a rarer medium (air) to a denser medium (water), it changes its angle of direction and gets refracted and hit to our eye lenses. With this, we see the surface of the pool at a changed angle and it seems to be a bit shallow than its original depth.
