Answer:

The graph with a more steeper slope

Explanation:

If the x axis represented time and the y axis represented speed the steeper the slope the more faster something was moving in a shorter amount of time. On the other hand a less steeper slope means an object is gradually picking up speed in a longer amount of time thus makeing it slower

Which of the following experiments could be used to determine the inertial mass of a block? A. Place the block on a rough horizo

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

D, using a spring scale to exert a force on the block. Measure the acceleration of the block and the applied force

Explanation:

For this you would use the net force equation acceleration=net force * mass however you will want to isolate mass so it would be acceleration/ net force to get mass. Then process of elimination comes to play.

An alpha particle (α), which is the same as a helium-4 nucleus, is momentarily at rest in a region of space occupied by an elect

beks73 [17]

Answer:

Speed of the alpha particle is $v=1.8180\times 10^3m/sec$

Explanation:

We have given charge on alpha particle $q=3.2\times 10^{-19}C$

Mass of the alpha particle $m=6.68\times 10^{-27}kg$

Potential difference $V=-3.45\times 10^{-3}volt$

We have to find the speed of the alpha particle

From energy conservation we know that

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2=qV$

$\frac{1}{2}\times 6.68\times 10^{-27}\times v^2=3.2\times 10^{-19}\times 3.45\times 10^{-3}$

$v=1.8180\times 10^3m/sec$

When light moves from air to glass, part of the light is reflected and part of it is refracted. In the image, which ray shows re

marissa [1.9K]

You have not provided the diagram, therefore, I cannot provide an exact answer.
However, I will try to help by explaining how to solve this problem.

When light moves from air to glass:
1- part of the light is reflected back into the air where the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection
2- part of the light enters the water and refracts. The angle of refraction can be calculated using Snell's law.

In a diagram, the reflected ray would be the one getting back into air while the refracted ray would be the one entering the water.

You can check the attached diagram for further illustrations.

Hope this helps :)

A skater is using very low friction rollerblades. A friend throws a Frisbee at her, on the straight line along which she is coas

kupik [55]

Answer:

a) perfectly inelastic, b) collision is inelastic, c) elastic

Explanation:

In this exercise, it is asked to identify what type of shock occurs between the skater and the frisbee, for this we must define a system formed by the skater and the fribee, so that the forces during the crash have been internal and the amount of movement is preserved

Initial instant. Before the skater touches the frisbee

p₀ = M v₁ + m v₂

where M and m are the masses of the skater and frisbee, respectively

for the final moment they give us several possibilities, in all case the moment is conserved

p₀ = $p_{f}$

case a)

Final instant. grabs the frisbee and holds it

p_{f} = (M + m) v '

p₀ = p_{f}

We can see that this shock is perfectly inelastic, it holds the fressbee

case b)

final instant.

This case is similar to the previous one, but the final speed of fresbee is zero, therefore this collision is inelastic and the kinetic energy is not conserved.

case c)

final instant. Grab the fressbee and resend it

$p_{f} = M v_{1f} + m v_{2f}$

this is an elastic Shock since the equivalent of a rebound of the fressbee, the kinetic energy is conserved.
