A ball is dropped from the top of a 77 m building. With what speed does the ball hit the ground? _________ m/s

vitfil [10]

Answer:

38.87 m/s

Explanation:

Given that the ball is dropped from a height = 77 m

u = 0 m/s

s = 77 m

a = g = 9.81 m/s²

Applying the expression as:

$v^2-u^2=2as$

Applying values as:

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2as+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 77+0^2}\\\Rightarrow v=38.87\ m/s$

<u>The speed with which the ball hit the ground = 38.87 m/s</u>

A wire 2.80 m in length carries a current of 5.60 A in a region where a uniform magnetic field has a magnitude of 0.300 T. Calcu

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Complete question:

A wire 2.80 m in length carries a current of 5.60 A in a region where a uniform magnetic field has a magnitude of 0.300 T. Calculate the magnitude of the magnetic force on the wire assuming the following angles between the magnetic field and the current.

a) 60 ⁰

b) 90 ⁰

c) 120 ⁰

Answer:

(a) When the angle, θ = 60 ⁰, force = 4.07 N

(b) When the angle, θ = 90 ⁰, force = 4.7 N

(c) When the angle, θ = 120 ⁰, force = 4.07 N

Explanation:

Given;

length of the wire, L = 2.8 m

current carried by the wire, I = 5.6 A

magnitude of the magnetic force, F = 0.3 T

The magnitude of the magnetic force is calculated as follows;

$F = BIl \ sin(\theta)$

(a) When the angle, θ = 60 ⁰

$F = BIl \ sin(\theta)\\\\F = 0.3 \times 5.6 \times 2.8 \times sin(60)\\\\F = 4.07 \ N$

(b) When the angle, θ = 90 ⁰

$F = BIl \ sin(\theta)\\\\F = 0.3 \times 5.6 \times 2.8 \times sin(90)\\\\F = 4.7 \ N$

(c) When the angle, θ = 120 ⁰

$F = BIl \ sin(\theta)\\\\F = 0.3 \times 5.6 \times 2.8 \times sin(120)\\\\F = 4.07 \ N$

As a wave moves through a medium, particles are displaced and (2 points)

Scorpion4ik [409]

As a wave moves through a medium, particles are displaced and return to their normal position after the wave passes.

Explanation:

A wave is a traveling disturbance that carries energy from one location to another. All waves move in straight lines outward and away from the source of a disturbance. Like the radiating circular ripples, the waves of water carry energy away from where a rock was dropped into the pond.

Waves can move as a single pulse or as a continuous series of waves, carrying energy away from its source. A pulse is a single disturbance, wave, or ripple that moves outward from the point of disturbance. A train of waves are many waves emitted over and over again from a single source.

As waves travel through matter, they will temporarily displace the molecules or particles in matter up-and-down or side-to-side. Waves move the energy but they do not carry the matter with them longitudinally as they move through matter. Once the disturbance passes, the medium will return to its original state or position.

Therefore, as the waves move through a medium, particles are displaced and return to their normal position after the wave passes.

A ball is dropped from a height of 12 feet and returns to a height that is one-half of the height from which it fell. How far wi

Liula [17]

The best thing to do in order to calculate the distance of the ball taht would have traveled when it hits the ground for the fourth time is to list the height everytime it bounces. We calculate as follows:

<span>12+6+6+3+3+1.5+1.5 = 33 feet</span>
