A ball is dropped from an upper floor, some unknown distance above your apartment. As you look out of your window, which is 1.50

m tall, you observe that it takes the ball 0.150 s to traverse the length of the window. 1) Determine how high above the top of your window the ball was dropped. Ignore the effects of air resistance. (Express your answer to three significant figures.)

Answer:

The ball is dropped at a height of 9.71 m above the top of the window.

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • Height of the window=1.5 m
  • Time taken by ball to cover the window height=0.15

Now using equation of motion in one dimension we have

s=ut+\dfrac{at^2}{2}

Let u be the velocity of the ball when it reaches the top of the window

then

1.5=0.15u+\dfrac{9.8\times0.15^2}{2}\\u=3.96\ \rm m/s\\

Now u is the final velocity of the ball with respect to the top of the building

so let t be the time taken for it to reach the top of the window with this velocity

3.96=gt\\t=0.4\ \rm s\\

Let h be the height above the top of the window

h=\dfrac{gt^2}{2}\\\\h=\dfrac{9.8\times 0.4^2}{2}\\h=9.71\ \rm m

You use 8x binoculars were used on a warbler (14cm long) in a tree 18cm away. What angle (in degrees) does the image of the warb
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

The angle it subtend on the retina is  \theta_z = 0.44586^o    

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The length of the warbler is  L = 14cm = \frac{14}{100} = 0.14m

      The distance from the binoculars is    d = 18cm = \frac{18}{100} = 0.18m

        The magnification of the binoculars is  M =8

Without the 8 X binoculars the  angle made with the angular size of the object  is mathematically represented as

          \theta = \frac{L}{d}

        \theta  = \frac{0.14}{0.18}

           = 0.007778 rad

Now magnification can be represented mathematically as

         M = \frac{\theta _z}{\theta}

Where \theta_z is the angle the image of the warbler subtend on your retina when the   binoculars i.e the  binoculars zoom.

So

      \theta_z = M * \theta

=>    \theta_z =8 * 0.007778

            = 0.0622222224

Generally the conversion to degrees can be mathematically evaluated as

             \theta_z = 0.062222224 * (\frac{360 }{2 \pi rad} )

              \theta_z = 0.44586^o

What will occur when the waves peak at the same place at the same time?
dedylja [7]
Hello!

This is a matter of superposition.
When the waves peak at the same time and place, they produce constructive interference, meaning the waves interact together in a positive way, to make a wave with Amplitude of both waves added together. When the peaks differ however, at the same time and place, then it is destructive interference and the waves essentially cancel each other out.

Hope this helps. Any questions please just ask. Thank you kindly.

Why is fusion important?
Sonja [21]

Abundant energy: Fusing atoms together in a controlled way releases nearly four million times more energy than a chemical reaction such as the burning of coal, oil or gas and four times as much as nuclear fission reactions (at equal mass)
