That's a weird graph, but judging from the units the acceleration is the slope of the graph.
a = (0.8 - 0.3)/(0.16 - 0.055) = 4.76 m/s²
This is a perfect opportunity to stuff all that data into the general equation for the height of an object that has some initial height, and some initial velocity, when it is dropped into free fall.
H(t) = (H₀) + (v₀ T) + (1/2 a T²)
Height at any time 'T' after the drop =
(initial height) +
(initial velocity) x (T) +
(1/2) x (acceleration) x (T²) .
For the balloon problem ...
-- We have both directions involved here, so we have to define them:
Upward = the positive direction
Initial height = +150 m
Initial velocity = + 3 m/s
Downward = the negative direction
Acceleration (of gravity) = -9.8 m/s²
Height when the bag hits the ground = 0 .
H(t) = (H₀) + (v₀ T) + (1/2 a T²)
0 = (150m) + (3m/s T) + (1/2 x -9.8 m/s² x T²)
-4.9 T² + 3T + 150 = 0
Use the quadratic equation:
T = (-1/9.8) [ -3 plus or minus √(9 + 2940) ]
= (-1/9.8) [ -3 plus or minus 54.305 ]
= (-1/9.8) [ 51.305 or -57.305 ]
T = -5.235 seconds or 5.847 seconds .
(The first solution means that the path of the sandbag is part of
the same path that it would have had if it were launched from the
ground 5.235 seconds before it was actually dropped from balloon
while ascending.)
Concerning the maximum height ... I don't know right now any other
easy way to do that part without differentiating the big equation.
So I hope you've been introduced to a little bit of calculus.
H(t) = (H₀) + (v₀ T) + (1/2 a T²)
H'(t) = v₀ + a T
The extremes of 'H' (height) correspond to points where h'(t) = 0 .
Set v₀ + a T = 0
+3 - 9.8 T = 0
Add 9.8 to each side: 3 = 9.8 T
Divide each side by 9.8 : T = 0.306 second
That's the time after the drop when the bag reaches its max altitude.
Oh gosh ! I could have found that without differentiating.
- The bag is released while moving UP at 3 m/s .
- Gravity adds 9.8 m/s of downward speed to that every second.
So the bag reaches the top of its arc, runs out of gas, and starts
falling, after
(3 / 9.8) = 0.306 second .
At the beginning of that time, it's moving up at 3 m/s.
At the end of that time, it's moving with zero vertical speed).
Average speed during that 0.306 second = (1/2) (3 + 0) = 1.5 m/s .
Distance climbed during that time = (average speed) x (time)
= (1.5 m/s) x (0.306 sec)
= 0.459 meter (hardly any at all)
But it was already up there at 150 m when it was released.
It climbs an additional 0.459 meter, topping out at 150.459 m,
then turns and begins to plummet earthward, where it plummets
to its ultimate final 'plop' precisely 5.847 seconds after its release.
We can only hope and pray that there's nobody standing at
Ground Zero at the instant of the plop.
I would indeed be remiss if were to neglect, in conclusion,
to express my profound gratitude for the bounty of 5 points
that I shall reap from this work. The moldy crust and tepid
cloudy water have been delicious, and will not soon be forgotten.
Answer:
b. AG, work function=4.74eV
Explanation:
Ultraviolet light starts at the end of the visible light spectrum, where violet light ends:
(wavelength of lowest-energy ultraviolet light)
So, the lowest energy of ultraviolet light can be found by using the formula
where
h is the Planck constant
c is the speed of light
Substituting,
And keeping in mind that
This energy converted into electronvolts is
The work function of a metal is the minimum energy needed to extract a photoelectron from the surface of the metal. Therefore, the metals that exhibit photoelectric effect are the ones whose work function is larger than the energy we found previously, so:
b. AG, work function=4.74eV
Because for all the other metals, visible light will be enough to extract photoelectrons.
The correct answer:
nebular theory
The explanation:
-The nebular hypothesis is the most widely accepted model in the field of cosmogony to explain the formation and evolution of the Solar System (as well as other planetary systems).
-According to the nebular hypothesis, stars form in massive and dense clouds of molecular hydrogen—giant molecular clouds (GMC). These clouds are gravitationally unstable, and matter coalesces within them to smaller denser clumps, which then rotate, collapse, and form stars. Star formation is a complex process, which always produces a gaseous protoplanetary disk, proplyd, around the young star. This may give birth to planets in certain circumstances, which are not well known.
-the Big bang theory is about the origin of the universe
- and condensation theory relates to the formation of the Moon and the Earth.
