Refraction can occur only when light is

mr_godi [17]

Answer:

We have learned that refraction occurs as light passes across the boundary between two media. Refraction is merely one of several possible boundary behaviors by which a light wave could behave when it encounters a new medium or an obstacle in its path.

An airplane is moving at 350 km/hr. If a bomb is

bogdanovich [222]

Answers:

a) -171.402 m/s

b) 17.49 s

c) 1700.99 m

Explanation:

We can solve this problem with the following equations:

$y=y_{o}+V_{oy}t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$ (1)

$x=V_{ox}t$ (2)

$V_{f}=V_{oy}-gt$ (3)

Where:

$y=0 m$ is the bomb's final height

$y_{o}=1.5 km \frac{1000 m}{1 km}=1500 m$ is the bomb's initial height

$V_{oy}=0 m/s$ is the bomb's initial vertical velocity, since the airplane was moving horizontally

$t$ is the time

$g=9.8 m/s^{2}$ is the acceleration due gravity

$x$ is the bomb's range

$V_{ox}=350 \frac{km}{h} \frac{1000 m}{1 km} \frac{1 h}{3600 s}=97.22 m/s$ is the bomb's initial horizontal velocity

$V_{f}$ is the bomb's final velocity

Knowing this, let's begin with the answers:

<h3>b) Time </h3>

With the conditions given above, equation (1) is now written as:

$y_{o}=\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$ (4)

Isolating $t$ :

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2 y_{o}}{g}}$ (5)

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2 (1500 m)}{9.8 m/s^{2}}}$ (6)

$t=17.49 s$ (7)

<h3>a) Final velocity </h3>

Since $V_{oy}=0 m/s$ , equation (3) is written as:

$V_{f}=-gt$ (8)

$V_{f}=-(97.22)(17.49 s)$ (9)

$V_{f}=-171.402 m/s$ (10) The negative sign only indicates the direction is downwards

<h3>c) Range </h3>

Substituting (7) in (2):

$x=(97.22 m/s)(17.49 s)$ (11)

$x=1700.99 m$ (12)

A skier (m=59.0 kg) starts sliding down from the top of a ski jump with negligible friction and takes off horizontally. If h = 3

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

35.20 m

Explanation:

By the law of conservation of energy we have,

$mg(H-h)=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$g(H-h)=\frac{1}{2}v^2$

$\Rightarrow H=\frac{v^2}{2g}+h$

where m= mass of the skier, h= 3.00 m

D= horizontal distance=13.9 m

H= maximum height attained

Also, the horizontal distance covered by the skier is

D=vt

$=v\frac{2g}{h}$

$\Rightarrow v^2=\frac{gD^2}{2h}$

thus, height H in terms of D is given by

$H=\frac{D^2}{2h}+h$

$H=\frac{13.9^2}{2\times3}+3$

H=35.20 m
