A person in the back of a pick-up moving at 20 m/s relative to the Earth, throws a baseball with a speed of 15 m/s in a directio

n opposite the motion of the truck (consider the direction of the truck’s velocity to be positive). What is the velocity of the ball relative to the Earth as it leaves the thrower’s hand?

Answer:

This is known as a Galilean transformation where

V' = V - U

Where the primed frame is the Earth frame and the unprimed frame is the frame moving with respect to the moving frame

V - speed of object in the unprimed frame

U - speed of primed frame with respect to the unprimed frame

Here we have:

V = -15 m/s        speed of ball in the moving frame (the truck)

U =  -20 m/s        speed of primed (rest) frame with respect to moving frame

So  V' = -15 - (-20) = 5 m/s

It may help if you draw a vector representing the moving frame and then add

a vector representing the speed of the ball in the moving frame.

The two conducting rails in the drawing are tilted upwards so they each make an angle of 30.0° with respect to the ground. The v
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

The current flows through the rod is 14.9 A.

Explanation:

Given that,

Magnetic field = 0.045 T

Mass of aluminum rod  = 0.19 kg

Length = 1.6 m

Angle = 30.0°

We need to calculate the force

Using resolving force

F\cos\theta=mg\sin\theta

F=mg\tan\theta

Put the value into the formula

F=0.19\times9.8\times\tan30

F=1.075\ N

We need to calculate the current flows through the rod

Using formula of magnetic force

F=iLB

i=\dfrac{F}{LB}

Put the value into the formula

i=\dfrac{1.075}{1.6\times0.045}

i=14.9\ A

Hence, The current flows through the rod is 14.9 A.

What is the instantaneous velocity v of the particle at t=10.0s?
algol [13]
The instantenous velocity is just the slope of the graph at a certain instant. Since the graph is a straight line, its instantenous velocity is uniform through out. v = dx / dt = (40 - 10) / (50 - 0) = 0.6 m/s.

The second minimum in the diffraction pattern of a 0.11-mm-wide slit occurs at 0.72°. What is the wavelength of the light?
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

691.13 nm

Explanation:

d = width of the slit = 0.11 x 10⁻³ m

θ = angle of diffraction pattern = 0.72° degree

λ = wavelength of the light = ?

m = order = 2                              (since second minimum)

for the second minimum diffraction pattern we use the equation

d Sinθ = m λ

Inserting the values

(0.11 x 10⁻³) Sin0.72 = (2) λ

λ = 691.13 x 10⁻⁹ m

λ = 691.13 nm
