A skateboarder shoots off a ramp with a velocity of 5.1 m/s, directed at an angle of 55° above the horizontal. The end of the ra

mp is 1.0 m above the ground. Let the x axis be parallel to the ground, the +y direction be vertically upward, and take as the origin the point on the ground directly below the top of the ramp.
(a) How high above the ground is the highest point that the skateboarder reaches?
(b) When the skateboarder reaches the highest point, how far is this point horizontally from the end of the ramp?

Answer

given,

initial velocity of skateboard = 5.1 m/s

angle above the horizontal = 55°

height of the ramp = 1 m

a) maximum height of projectile

$H = \dfrac{u^2sin^2 \theta}{2g}$

$H = \dfrac{5.1^2\times sin^2 55^0}{2\times 9.81}$

H = 0.889 m

the maximum height of the skateboard above the ground

= 1 + 0.889

= 1.889 m

b) time to reach the height

$t = \dfrac{u\ sin\theta}{g}$

$t = \dfrac{5.1\ sin55^0}{9.8}$

t = 0.426 s

horizontal distance = u cos θ × t

= 5.1 × cos 55° × 0.426

horizontal distance = 1.25 m

Answer:

the rate of flow = 29.28 ×10⁻³ m³/s or 0.029 m³/s

Explanation:

Given:

Diameter of the pipe = 100mm = 0.1m

Contraction ratio = 0.5

thus, diameter at the throat of venturimeter = 0.5×0.1m = 0.05m

The formula for discharge through a venturimeter is given as:

$Q=C_d\frac{A_1A_2}{\sqrt{A_1^2-A_2^2}}\sqrt{2gh}$

Where,

$C_d$ is the coefficient of discharge = 0.97 (given)

A₁ = Area of the pipe

A₁ = $\frac{\pi}{4}0.1^2 = 7.85\times 10^{-3}m^2$

A₂ = Area at the throat

A₂ = $\frac{\pi}{4}0.05^2 = 1.96\times 10^{-3}m^2$

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

Now,

The gauge pressure at throat = Absolute pressure - The atmospheric pressure

⇒The gauge pressure at throat = 2 - 10.3 = -8.3 m (Atmosphric pressure = 10.3 m of water)

Thus, the pressure difference at the throat and the pipe = 3- (-8.3) = 11.3m

Substituting the values in the discharge formula we get

$Q=0.97\frac{7.85\times 10^{-3}\times 1.96\times 10^{-3}}{\sqrt{7.85\times 10^{-3}^2-1.96\times 10^{-3}^2}}\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 11.3}$

or

$Q=\frac{0.97\times15.42\times 10^{-6}\times 14.88}{7.605\times 10^{-3}}$

or

Q = 29.28 ×10⁻³ m³/s

Hence, the rate of flow = 29.28 ×10⁻³ m³/s or 0.029 m³/s

An electron and a proton each have a thermal kinetic energy of 3kBT/2. Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of each particle at a

S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Given:

Thermal Kinetic Energy of an electron, $KE_{t} = \frac{3}{2}k_{b}T$

$k_{b} = 1.38\times 10^{- 23} J/k$ = Boltzmann's constant

Temperature, T = 1800 K

Solution:

Now, to calculate the de-Broglie wavelength of the electron, $\lambda_{e}$ :

$\lambda_{e} = \frac{h}{p_{e}}$

$\lambda_{e} = \frac{h}{m_{e}{v_{e}}$ (1)

where

h = Planck's constant = $6.626\times 10^{- 34}m^{2}kg/s$

$p_{e}$ = momentum of an electron

$v_{e}$ = velocity of an electron

$m_{e} = 9.1\times 10_{- 31} kg$ = mass of electon

Now,

Kinetic energy of an electron = thermal kinetic energy

$\frac{1}{2}m_{e}v_{e}^{2} = \frac{3}{2}k_{b}T$

$}v_{e} = \sqrt{2\frac{\frac{3}{2}k_{b}T}{m_{e}}}$

$}v_{e} = \sqrt{\frac{3\times 1.38\times 10^{- 23}\times 1800}{9.1\times 10_{- 31}}}$

$v_{e} = 2.86\times 10^{5} m/s$ (2)

Using eqn (2) in (1):

$\lambda_{e} = \frac{6.626\times 10^{- 34}}{9.1\times 10_{- 31}\times 2.86\times 10^{5}} = 2.55 nm$

Now, to calculate the de-Broglie wavelength of proton, $\lambda_{e}$ :

$\lambda_{p} = \frac{h}{p_{p}}$

$\lambda_{p} = \frac{h}{m_{p}{v_{p}}$ (3)

where

$m_{p} = 1.6726\times 10_{- 27} kg$ = mass of proton

$v_{p}$ = velocity of an proton

Now,

Kinetic energy of a proton = thermal kinetic energy

$\frac{1}{2}m_{p}v_{p}^{2} = \frac{3}{2}k_{b}T$

$}v_{p} = \sqrt{2\frac{\frac{3}{2}k_{b}T}{m_{p}}}$

$}v_{p} = \sqrt{\frac{3\times 1.38\times 10^{- 23}\times 1800}{1.6726\times 10_{- 27}}}$

$v_{p} = 6.674\times 10^{3} m/s$ (4)

Using eqn (4) in (3):

$\lambda_{p} = \frac{6.626\times 10^{- 34}}{1.6726\times 10_{- 27}\times 6.674\times 10^{3}} = 5.94\times 10^{- 11} m = 0.0594 nm$
