Answer:

Explanation:

If v be the velocity just after the rebound

Kinetic energy will be converted into potential energy

1/2 m v² = mgh

v² = 2gh

v = √ 2gh

= √ 2 x 9.8 x .96

= 4.33 m / s

A student standing on a stationary skateboard tosses a textbook with a mass of mb = 1.25 kg to a friend standing in front of him
juin [17]

Answer:

The velocity of the student has after throwing the book is 0.0345 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of book =1.25 kg

Combined mass = 112 kg

Velocity of book = 3.61 m/s

Angle = 31°

We need to calculate the magnitude of the velocity of the student has after throwing the book

Using conservation of momentum along horizontal  direction

m_{b}v_{b}\cos\theta= m_{c}v_{c}

v_{s}=\dfrac{m_{b}v_{b}\cos\theta}{m_{c}}

Put the value into the formula

v_{c}=\dfrac{1.25\times3.61\times\cos31}{112}

v_{c}=0.0345\ m/s

Hence, The velocity of the student has after throwing the book is 0.0345 m/s.

An electromagnetic wave travels in a vacuum. The wavelength of the wave is tripled. How is this accomplished? by tripling the fr
makkiz [27]

Answer:

by reducing the frequency of the wave by a factor of three

Explanation:

Speed = wavelength * frequency.

Wavelength = speed/frequency

The speed of an electromagnetic wave in a vacuum is constant. Meanwhile the wavelength and frequency have an inverse relationship which means for every rise in any of the parameters there will also be a corresponding fall.

Since the wavelength is tripled then the frequency will also be reduced by a factor of 3

Which of the following would likely be the best reflector of heat energy
mr Goodwill [35]
Ok so B would be the best surface to reflect heat energy as it's polished and does not disturb the wave of energy like the others would. Also in therms of colour it's better because it's a lighter colour than navy ( the darker colour of the spectrum ). This matters as darker colours absorb light where light colour reflect it.
Hope this helps :).

Two parallel conducting plates are separated by 4.00 cm. The electric field strength between the two plates is 5.70×10⁴ V/m.
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

2280 V

Explanation:

distance between the plates, d = 4 cm = 0.04 m

Electric field strength, E = 5.7 x 10^4 V/m

The formula for potential difference is given by

V = E x d

V = 5.7 x 10^4 x 0.04

V = 2280 V

thus, the potential difference between the plates is 2280 V.

A length of copper wire has a resistance 29 Ω. The wire is cut into three pieces of equal length, which are then connected as pa
erik [133]

Answer:

3.222 ohms

Explanation:

If the total wire had a resistance of 29 ohms, when cut in three, each piece will have a resistance of 9.666 ohms.

As these three pieces (R1, R2 and R3) are now connected in parallel, the equivalent resistance R can be calculated using this equation:

1/R = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3

1/R = 1/9.666 + 1/9.666 + 1/9.666

1/R = 3/9.666

R = 9.666/3 = 3.222 ohms

The resistance between A and B will be 3.222 ohms
