A girl throws a stone from a bridge. Consider the following ways she might throw the stone. The speed of the stone as it leaves

her hand is the same in each case, and air resistance is negligible.Case A: Thrown straight up.Case B: Thrown straight down.Case C: Thrown out at an angle of 45 above horizontal.Case D: Thrown straight out horizontally.In which case will the speed of the stone be greatest when it hits the water below?

Answer:

the velocity in all the cases will be same.

Explanation:

given,

girl throws a stone from the bridge

air is friction less

we have to find from the given cases in which case the velocity of stone will be greatest.

According to Work energy theorem work done by the sum of all the force is equal to kinetic energy.

As the air is frictionless hence the speed depend upon the height from which the stone is thrown.

height in all the cases is same.

so, the velocity in all the cases will be same.

The speed of the stone hitting the water below will be the same for every case.

\texttt{ }

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Acceleration is rate of change of velocity.

\large {\boxed {a = \frac{v - u}{t} } }

\large {\boxed {d = \frac{v + u}{2}~t } }

<em>a = acceleration ( m/s² )</em>

<em>v = final velocity ( m/s )</em>

<em>u = initial velocity ( m/s )</em>

<em>t = time taken ( s )</em>

<em>d = distance ( m )</em>

Let us now tackle the problem!

\texttt{ }

<u>Given:</u>

height of the stone = h

initial speed of the stone = u

<u>Unknown:</u>

final speed of the stone = v = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

<h3>Case A:</h3>

v^2 = u^2 -2gh

v^2 = u^2 - 2g(-h)

v^2 = u^2 + 2gh

\boxed {v = \sqrt{u^2 + 2gh}}

\texttt{ }

<h3>Case B:</h3>

v^2 = u^2 - 2gh

v^2 = (-u)^2 - 2g(-h)

v^2 = u^2 + 2gh

\boxed {v = \sqrt{u^2 + 2gh}}

\texttt{ }

<h3>Case C:</h3>

v_x = u \cos \theta

\texttt{ }

(v_y)^2 = (u \sin \theta)^2 - 2gh

(v_y)^2 = (u \sin \theta)^2 - 2g(-h)

(v_y)^2 = (u \sin \theta)^2 + 2gh

\texttt{ }

v^2 = (v_x)^2 + (v_y)^2

v^2 = (u \cos \theta)^2 + (u \sin \theta)^2 + 2gh

v^2 = u^2 ( \cos^2 \theta + \sin^2 \theta) + 2gh

v^2 = u^2 (1) + 2gh

\boxed{v = \sqrt{u^2 + 2gh}}

\texttt{ }

<h3>Case D:</h3>

v_x = u \cos \theta

v_x = u \cos 0^o

v_x = u

\texttt{ }

(v_y)^2 = (u \sin \theta)^2 - 2gh

(v_y)^2 = (u \sin 0^o)^2 - 2g(-h)

(v_y)^2 = (0)^2 + 2gh

(v_y)^2 = 2gh

\texttt{ }

v^2 = (v_x)^2 + (v_y)^2

v^2 = (u)^2 + 2gh

\boxed{v = \sqrt{u^2 + 2gh}}

\texttt{ }

From information above , we could conclude that the speed of the stone hitting the water below will be the same for every case.

At its maximum speed, a typical snail moves about 4.0 m in 5.0 min.
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Distance = 4.0m

Time = 5.0 mins = 300secs

Required

Average speed

Average speed = Distance/Time

Average speed = 4.0/300

Average speed = 0.01333m/secs

Hence the average speed of the snail is 0.01333m/s

Two resistors of 15 and 30 ω are connected in parallel. if the combination is connected in series with a 9. 0-v battery and a 20
Stels [109]

Resistors Working Together.

Resistors are shown coupled in parallel to a voltage source in Figure 10.3.4. When all of the resistors' ends are connected to one another by a continuous wire of minimal resistance and their other ends are also connected to one another by a continuous wire of minimal resistance, the resistors are said to be in parallel. There is a constant potential drop across all resistors. Ohm's law, I=V/R, can be used to determine the current flowing through each resistor while the voltage is constant across each resistor. For instance, the headlights, radio, and other components of an automobile are linked in parallel so that each subsystem can use the entire voltage of the source and function independently. The wiring in your home or any other structure shares the same

The original circuit is shown in part a with two parallel resistors linked to a voltage source, and the equivalent circuit is shown in part b with one equivalent resistor connected to the voltage source.

An alternating source drives a series RLC circuit with an emf amplitude of 6.04 V, at a phase angle of +30.3°. When the potentia
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

-8.56V

Explanation:

Our values are given by,

e = 6.04 V

Φ = 30.3

VC = 5.32

We can calculate the voltage across the circuit with the emf formula, that is,

e(t) = e* sin(wt)

e(t) = 6.04 * sin(Φ + π)

e(t) = 6.04 * sin(32.5 + 180)

e(t) = -3.245 V

Now, Using Kirchoff Voltage Law,

e(t) - VR- VL - VC = 0

-3.24 - 0 - VL - 5.32 = 0

Finally we have the potential difference across the inductor.

VL = - 8.56 v
