Answer:

Option 5. 1 and 3

Solution:

The only forces acting on the tennis ball after it has left contact with the racquet and the instant before it touches the ground are the force of gravity in the downward direction and the force by the air exerted on the ball.

The ball after it left follows the path of trajectory and as it moves forward in the horizontal direction the force of the air acts on it.

In the whole projectile motion of the ball, the acceleration due to gravity acts on the ball thus the force of gravity acts on the ball in the downward direction before it hits the ground.

When the plutonium bomb was tested in New Mexico in 1945, approximately 1 gram of matter was converted into energy. Suppose anot

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

The value is $E = 1.35 *10^{14} \ J$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of matter converted to energy on first test is $m = 1 \ g = 0.001 \ kg$

The mass of matter converted to energy on second test $m_1 = 1.5 \ g = 1.5 *10^{-3} \ kg$

Generally the amount of energy that was released by the explosion is mathematically represented as

$E = m * c^2$

=> $E = 1.5 *10^{-3} * [ 3.0 *10^{8}]^2$

=> $E = 1.35 *10^{14} \ J$

A nearsighted person wants to see an apple that is 7 meters away but can only clearly see objects that are at most 62 cm away fr

natulia [17]

Answer:

The power of the corrective lenses is 3.162 D.

Explanation:

Given that,

Object distance = 70 cm

Image distance = 62 cm

Distance between eyes and glasses = 2.5 cm

Eyeglasses made of diverging corrective lenses can help her to see the apple clearly

So now ,

Object distance from glass =70-2.5 = 67.5 cm

Image distance from glass = 62-2.5 = 59.5 cm

We need to calculate the focal length

Using formula for focal length

$\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{v}+\dfrac{1}{u}$

$\dfrac{1}{f}=-\dfrac{1}{59.5}-\dfrac{1}{67.5}$

$\dfrac{1}{f}=-\dfrac{508}{16065}\ cm$

We need to calculate the power of lens

Using formula of power

$P=\dfrac{100}{f}$

$P=-\dfrac{508}{16065}\times100$

$P=-3.162 \ D$

Negative sign shows the lens is diverging.

Hence, The power of the corrective lenses is 3.162 D.

On a dry day, just after washing your hair to remove natural oils and drying it thoroughly, run a plastic comb through it. Small

Hitman42 [59]

When the surface of the comb rubs on your hair, the comb is electrically charged. When the comb comes close to the paper, the charge on the comb causes charge separation on the paper bits. Since paper is neutral, positive and negative charges are equivalent. The charge on the comb charges the area of the bit of paper nearest the comb to the opposite. Thus, the bits of paper become attracted to the comb.

Is language an innate or an acquired one

horsena [70]

It's acquired. Innate means you have it at birth, acquired means you picked it up. Obviously babies can't speak ;) so it's acquired.
