We are asked in the problem to determine the horizontal distance achieved by rolling of a pen from a vertical distance of 0.55 m at 1.2 m/s.
we use the formula in this case,

t = √[2y/g] 
where g is the gravitational acceleration
t = √[2*0.55/9.8] =0.335 s

X = v * t = 1.2 m/s *0.335 s = 0.4 m

To calculate the horizontal distance traveled by the ball, we first calculate the total time it takes to reach the ground as follows:


t = √[2y/g] = <span>√[2(0.55) / 9.81]
t = 0.33 s

The horizontal distance would be

</span>
Hope this helps.

Determine the minimum amount of energy (in MeV) needed to remove a neutron from a 88Sr nucleus. (For all masses, keep six places
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

  11.106 Mev.

Explanation:

Sr⁸⁸         →        Sr ⁸⁷      +       ₀n¹

87.905612       86.908877       1.008664   ( atomic masses in amu )

mass defect = ( 86.908877 + 1.008664) - 87.905612 = .011929 amu.

Equivalent energy in MeV = .011929 x 931 = 11.106 MeV

Putting a beaker of water in a microwave and turning it on for a minute or two will increase the temperature of the water. Descr
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

The equipment to use is: a beaker, a fixed amount of water, a thermometer.

The mass of water, the time, the temperature for each time should be noted and a graph of Temperature versus time should be made

Explanation:

The design of an experiment is to place the beaker in the microwave, with a good amount of water (approximately ⅔ of its capacity) and turn it on for small periods of time, generally the minimum is 30 s, quickly open the microwave, place a thermometer or better yet an infrared thermometer to measure the temperature of the water; repeat this several times.

The advantage of the infrared thermometer is that it reduces the transfer of heat between the water and the thermometer.

The mass of water, the time, the temperature for each time should be noted and a graph of Temperature versus time should be made.

The equipment to use is: a beaker, a fixed amount of water, a thermometer.

The main precaution that must be taken is not to open the microwave while it is on.

A polarized light that has an intensity I0 = 52.0 W/m² is incident on four polarizing disks whose planes are parallel and center
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

The transmitted intensity through all polarizers = 34.73

Explanation:

Given :

Incident intensity = 52 W/m^2

Angle between the transmission axis and polarizer optic axis = 18°

According to the malus law, when unpolarized or polarized light passes through polarizing disk, the intensity of the transmitted light is directly proportional to the square of the cosine of angle between the transmission axis and polarizer optic axis.

∴ I = I' cos^2\alpha

Where I= transmitted intensity, I'= incident intensity, \alpha = angle between the transmission axis and polarizer optic axis.

Here, there are four polarizing disks so that.

from first disk,

∴ I₁ = 52 (cos)^2 18°

       = 52×0.904

       = 47.01

Now I₁  behave as an incident light for second polarizer so we only multiply

cos^218 term

so we write,

∴ I₂ = 47.01×0.904

      = 42.495

From third polarizer,

∴ I₃ = 42.495×0.904

       = 38.415

From forth polarizer,

∴ I₄ = 38.415×0.904

       = 34.73

Therefor, the the transmitted intensity through forth polarizer = 34.73 W/m^2.

True or false: Being highly creative is a behavior leading to self-actualization.

True.<span>
Self<span>-actualization brings about self-satisfactions and a sense of self-worth. 
When someone is highly creative and creates something successfully, he or she feels motivated and feels that he or she has finally achieved his or her goal. Nothing better than this can lead to self</span>-actualization. </span>
