A 35 g steel ball is held by a ceiling-mounted electromagnet 3.8 m above the floor. A compressed-air cannon sits on the floor, 4

.8 m to one side of the point directly under the ball. When a button is pressed, the ball drops and, simultaneously, the cannon fires a 25 g plastic ball. The two balls collide 1.4 m above the floor. What was the launch speed of the plastic ball?

Answer:

Explanation:

Let v is the launch speed of the plastic ball and the angle of projection is θ.

So, in horizontal direction

v Cosθ x t = 4.8 .... (1)

In th evertical direction

1.4 = v Sin θ x t - 0.5 gt²     .... (2)

As , v Sin θ x t = 3.8      .... (3) , put in equation (2)

1.4 = 3.8 - 4.9 t²

t = 0.7 s

Put in (1) and (3)

v Cosθ x 0.7  = 4.8

v Cosθ = 6.86

and v Sinθ x 0.7 = 3.8

v Sinθ = 5.43

Now

v^{2}\left ( Sin^{2}\theta +Cos^{2}\theta  \right )=5.43^{2}+6.86^{2}

v = 8.75 m/s

Answer:

The angular separation equals 0.35^{o}

Explanation:

We have according to Snell's law

n_{1}sin(\theta _{1})=n_{2}sin(\theta _{2})

\therefore \theta _{2}=sin^{-1}(\frac{n_{1}sin(\theta _{1})}{n_{2}})

Using this equation for both the colors separately we have

\theta _{red}=sin^{-1}(\frac{sin(23.90^{o})}{1.62})\\\\\theta _{red}=14.48^{o}

Similarly for violet light we have

\theta _{violet}=sin^{-1}(\frac{sin(23.90^{o})}{1.660})\\\\\theta _{violet}=14.13^{o}

Thus the angular separation becomes

\Delta \theta =14.48-14.13=0.35^{o}

An atom of a certain element has 36 protons, 36 electrons, and a mass number of 84. At room temperature, this element is a very
Grace [21]

Answer:

12 neutrons

Explanation:

The number of protons also shows the atomic number. Therefore the element in question is Krypton (Kr), which also is a noble gas.

Neutrons = Mass number - protons - electrons

Here neutrons = 84 - 36 - 36 = 12

What's the formula for efficiency?​
Neko [114]

Answer:

r=P/C, where P is the amount of useful output ("product") produced per the amount C ("cost") of resources consumed.

Explanation:

Efficiency is often measured as the ratio of useful output to total input, which can be expressed with the mathematical formula r=P/C, where P is the amount of useful output ("product") produced per the amount C ("cost") of resources consumed.

What are non-clastic?
igor_vitrenko [27]
Non clastic sedimentary rocks from chemical reactions, chiefly in the ocean. Nonclastic and clastic sedimentary rocks are the only members of the rock family that contain fossils as well as indicators of the climate that was present when the rock was formed.
