Answer:

90°/-90°

Explanation:

assume we are measuring launch angles with respect to horizontal surface

assume +y direction to be positive

when object is launched with launch angle <90° but >0°

it has 2 components for velocity v

v_{x} in horizontal direction

v_{y} in vertical direction

the v_{x}  <u>component remains unchanged throughout the travel</u> as there is no force acting on it to change it (air resistance is ignored)

v_{y} this component is decreased till 0, as acceleration due to gravity is acting on it and<u> starts to increase in downward direction</u>.

when ball reaches the same height of the building while going down, this vertical component of ball is equal same as v_{y} but in opposite direction

so now vertical velocity = -v_{y}

this <u>component keeps on increasing until it hits the ground</u> as the gravity accelerates it to the ground

the horizontal component is unchanged throughout

So to have maximum speed when the ball reaches the ground,the vertical velocity component must be maximum at launch,so it will <u>just be accelerated until it hits the ground.</u>

⇒ In this case,the maximum vertical component can be v or -v

⇒v_{y}=v or v_{y}= -v

⇒ horizontal component is 0

this means  that ball is thrown directly up at 90° or directly down at 90° with respect to horizontal.

Consider the following statement:
vovangra [49]

Answer:

The statement "The magnetic field of a magnet comes out of the north pole and goes into the south pole" is imprecise

Explanation:

This is because the zero divergence equation (∇ · B = 0 ) is valid for any magnetic field, even if it is time dependent rather than static. Physically, it means that there are no magnetic charges otherwise we would have ∇ · B ∝ ρmag instead of ∇ · B = 0. Consequently, the magnetic field lines never begin or end anywhere in space; instead they form closed loops or run from infinity to infinity.

What do ocean waves and sound waves have in common?
Maksim231197 [3]
D. Both exhibit the same particle-to-particle interaction.Because disturbance is propagated with the help of particles. Other than this,[ <span>light waves are electromagnetic waves. ocean waves and sound waves are mechanical waves. they are able to transfer energy. electromagnetic wave and ocean waves are transverse waves while sound waves are the longitudinal wave. they show wave properties: reflection, refraction, diffraction, interference, and plane-polarization. longitudinal waves such as sound waves cannot be plane-polarized]. The one in the box shows different examples of waves with their examples. Hope it helps.</span>

Coherent light with wavelength 610 nm passes through two very narrow slits, and theinterference pattern is observed on a screen
andriy [413]

Answer:

= 1220 nm

= 1.22 μm

Explanation:

given data:

wavelength \lambda = 610 nm = 610\times  10 ^{-9} m

distance of screen from slits D = 3 m

1st order bright fringe is 4.84 mm

condition for 1 st bright is

d sin \theta =\lambda     ---( 1)

andtan \theta = \frac{y}{ D}

\theta = tan^{-1}\frac{(y }{D})

= 0.0924 degrees

plug theta value in equation 1 we get

d sin ( 0.0924) = 610 \times 10 ^{-9}

d = 3.78\times 10^{-4} m

condition for 1 st dark fringe

d sin \theta =\frac{λ'}{2}

\lambda '= 2 d sin\theta

= 2λ    since from eq (1)

= 1220 nm

= 1.22 μm
