You throw a baseball directly upward at time t = 0 at an initial speed of 12.3 m/s. What is the maximum height the ball reaches

above where it leaves your hand? At what times does the ball pass through half the maximum height? Ignore air resistance and take g = 9.80 m/s2.

Explanation:

At the maximum height, the ball's velocity is 0.

v² = v₀² + 2a(x - x₀)

(0 m/s)² = (12.3 m/s)² + 2(-9.80 m/s²)(x - 0 m)

x = 7.72 m

The ball reaches a maximum height of 7.72 m.

The times where the ball passes through half that height is:

x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

(7.72 m / 2) = (0 m) + (12.3 m/s) t + ½ (-9.8 m/s²) t²

3.86 = 12.3 t - 4.9 t²

4.9 t² - 12.3 t + 3.86 = 0

Using quadratic formula:

t = [ -b ± √(b² - 4ac) ] / 2a

t = [ 12.3 ± √(12.3² - 4(4.9)(3.86)) ] / 9.8

t = 0.368, 2.14

The ball reaches half the maximum height after 0.368 seconds and after 2.14 seconds.

A 0.20-kg particle moves along the x axis under the influence of a conservative force. The potential energy is given by
anastassius [24]

Answer:

e) 11 m/s

Explanation:

For a particle under the action of a conservative force, its mechanical energy at point 0 is must be equal to its mechanical energy at point 1:

K_1+U_1=K_0+U_0\\\\\frac{mv_1^2}{2}+[(8.0\frac{J}{m^2})(x_1)^2+(2.0\frac{J}{m^4})(x_1)^4]=\frac{mv_0^2}{2}+[(8.0\frac{J}{m^2})(x_0)^2+(2.0\frac{J}{m^4})(x_0)^4]

In x_1=1.0m the speed is given, so v_1=5.0\frac{m}{s} and x_0=0. Replacing:

\frac{mv_1^2}{2}+[(8.0\frac{J}{m^2})(1m)^2+(2.0\frac{J}{m^4})(1m)^4]=\frac{mv_0^2}{2}+[(8.0\frac{J}{m^2})0^2+(2.0\frac{J}{m^4})(0)^4]\\\frac{mv_1^2}{2}+8.0J+2.0J=\frac{mv_0^2}{2}\\\frac{mv_0^2}{2}=\frac{mv_1^2}{2}+10J\\v_0=\sqrt{\frac{2}{m}(\frac{mv_1^2}{2}+10J)}\\v_0=\sqrt{\frac{2}{0.2kg}(\frac{(0.2kg)(5\frac{m}{s})^2}{2}+10J)}\\v_0=11.18\frac{m}{s}

How are engineers creating clothing that can charge your cell phone. Explain the science behind their innovation.
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

By the use of carbon nanotubes as the clothing material.

Explanation:

Carbon nanotubes is a technology designed by engineers that could make charging of the cell of a phone possible. It has some some required properties like it is strong, conductive and heat-resistant which are suitable for the purpose.

This technology which involves a progressive dipping of a pure cotton material into nafion polymer, then in a chemical solution of carbon nanotubes and finally in polystyrene until it becomes saturated and have a conductive property. The conductive cotton can be used to make such cloths which becomes conductive and produces some electromagnetic waves when there is a contact with sweat or fluid from the body. The waves generated can be used to charge a cell phone through radiation interaction.
