. A water balloon is thrown horizontally at a speed of 2.00 m/s from the roof of a building that is 6.00m above the ground. At t

he same instant the balloon is released; a second balloon is thrown straight down at 2.00 m/s from the same height. Determine which balloon hits the ground first and how much sooner it hits the ground than the other balloon

Answer:

Explanation:

Height of building

H = 6m

Horizontal speed of first balloon

U1x = 2m/s

Second ballot is thrown straight downward at a speed of

U2y = 2m/s

Time each gallon hits the ground

Balloon 1.

Using equation of free fall

H = Uoy•t + ½gt²

Uox = 0 since the body does not have vertical component of velocity

6 = ½ × 9.8t²

6 = 4.9t²

t² = 6 / 4.9

t² = 1.224

t = √1.224

t = 1.11 seconds

For second balloon

H = Uoy•t + ½gt²

6 = 2t + ½ × 9.8t²

6 = 2t + 4.9t²

4.9t² + 2t —6 = 0

Using formula method to solve the quadratic equation

Check attachment

From the solution we see that,

t = 0.9211 and t = -1.329

We will discard the negative value of time since time can't be negative here

So the second balloon get to the ground after t ≈ 0.92 seconds

Conclusion

The water ballon that was thrown straight down at 2.00 m/s hits the ground first by 1.11 s - 0.92s = 0.19 s.

Answer:

Second balloon hits ground Δt = 0.185 seconds sooner than first balloon

Explanation:

Given:-

- The first balloon is thrown horizontally with speed, u1 = 2.0 m/s

- The second balloon is thrown down with speed, u2 = 2.0 m/s

- The height from which balloon are thrown, si = 6.0 m (above ground)

Find:-

Determine which balloon hits the ground first and how much sooner it hits the ground than the other balloon

Solution:-

- We will first determine the time taken (t1) for the first balloon thrown horizontally with speed u1 = 2.0 m/s from top of building from a height of s = 6.0 m from ground to it the ground.

- Using the second kinematic equation of motion in vertical direction:

                         si = 0.5*g*t1^2

Where,     g: The gravitational constant = 9.81 m/s^2

                        6.0 = 4.905*t1^2

                        4.905*t1^2 - 6.0 = 0

- Solve the quadratic equation:

                        t 1 = 1.106 s

- Similarly, the time taken (t2) for the second balloon thrown down with speed u2 = 2.0 m/s from top of building from a height of s = 6.0 m from ground to it the ground.

- Using the second kinematic equation of motion in vertical direction:

                         si = u2*t2 + 0.5*g*t1^2

Where,     g: The gravitational constant = 9.81 m/s^2

                        6.0 = 4.905*t1^2 + 2*t2

                        4.905*t1^2 + 2*t2 - 6.0 = 0

- Solve the quadratic equation:

                        t 2 = 0.9208 s

- We see that the second balloon thrown down vertically hits the ground first. The second balloon reaches ground, t1 - t2 = 0.185 seconds, sooner than first balloon.

What can you infer about a wave with a short wavelength?
raketka [301]

Answer:

- It can be infer that it has a lower frequency.

<em>In the case of electromagnetic waves.</em>

- A short wavelength means a lower energy,

Explanation:

The wavelength is the distance between two consecutive crests or valleys while the frequency is the number of crests that pass for a specific point in an interval of time.

For example, a person makes laundry once a weak.

In this example, the event is represented by the laundry and the interval of time is once a weak

The velocity of a wave is defined as:

v = \nu \cdot \lambda  (1)

Where nu is the frequency and \lambda is the wavelenth

\lambda =  \frac{v}{\nu}  (2)

Notice from equation 2 that the wavelength is inversely proportional to the frequency (when the wavelength increases the frequency decreases).

In the case of electromagnetic waves, a short wavelength means a lower energy, as it can be seen in equation 4 (inversely proportional).

E = h\nu  (3)

E = \frac{hc}{\lambda} (4)

The only graph that accurately depict the given motion is graph D.

The given parameters;

  • initial position of the man = 0
  • direction of the man's first displacement = backward
  • time of first motion, t₁ = 6 seconds
  • velocity of this first displacement = v₁
  • time without any motion (<em>zero movement</em>) = 6 seconds
  • direction of the second displacement = forward
  • velocity of second displacement = 2v₁

Let the acceleration of the first displacement = a

Acceleration of the second displacement = 2a

From the given graphs we can eliminate every graph without initial decrease or motion towards the negative direction.

The only options with initial motion towards the negative direction are;

  • <em>graph B</em>, and
  • <em>graph D</em>.

The difference between graph B and D;

  • in graph B there is a uniform motion for 6 seconds
  • in graph D there is no motion for 6 seconds (<em>this is obvious as the line fall directly on top of the horizontal axis maintaining a value of zero for 6 seconds</em>).

Thus, the only graph that accurately depict the given motion is graph D.

Objects 1 and 2 attract each other with a gravitational force of 45 units. If the mass of Object 1 is doubled, then the new grav
Novosadov [1.4K]

Explanation:

Fgravity = G*(mass1*mass2)/D²

so, if you double one of the masses, what does that do to our equation ?

Fgravitynew = G*(2*mass1*mass2)/D²

due to the commutative property of multiplication

Fgravitynew = 2* G*(mass1*mass2)/D² = 2* Fgravity

so, the correct answer will be 2×45 = 90 units.
