Total energy before the toss:
E_1 = \frac{1}{2} mv_1^2 + mgh_1

Total energy at the roof:
 E_2 = \frac{1}{2} mv_2^2 + mgh_2

Energy must be conserved so :
E_1 = E_2 \\ \\ \frac{1}{2} mv_1^2 + mgh_1 = \frac{1}{2} mv_2^2 + mgh_2 \\ \\ \frac{1}{2} m (v_1^2 - v_2^2) = mg(h_2 - h_1) \\ \\ \frac{1}{2} (v_1^2 - v_2^2) = g(h_2 - h_1) \\ \\ v_1^2 - v_2^2 = 2g(h_2 - h_1)

If v₁ is the initial velocity and v₂ is the final velocity, which is zero at the roof:
v_1^2 = 2g(h_2 - h_1) \\  \\ v_1 =  \sqrt{2g(h_2 - h_1)}

v_1 =  \sqrt{(2)(9.81 \frac{m}{s^2} )(15m - 1.6m)} = 16,2  \frac{m}{s}

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

The electromagnetic force

Explanation:

The electromagnetic force is one of the four fundamental forces of nature. Namely, they are:

- Electromagnetic force: it is the force exerted between electrically charged particles (and between magnetic fields). The force can be either attractive (if the two charges have opposite signs) or repulsive (if the two charges have same sign), and it acts over an infinite range.

- Gravitational force: it is the force exerted between objects with mass. It is always attractive, and it also has an infinite range of action. It is the weakest of the four fundamental forces.

- Strong nuclear force: it is the force that acts between protons and neutrons inside the nucleus, and it is responsible for keeping the nucleus together and preventing it from breaking apart (due to the electrostatic repulsion between protons)

- Weak nuclear force: it is the force responsible for certains nuclear decays, such as the beta decay, in which a neutron turns into a proton, emitting an electron and an antineutrino.

a 42.3 kg girl and a 7.93 kg sled are on the surface of a frozen lake, 15.0m apart and linked by a rope, but not moving yet. the
ycow [4]

Answer:

they meet from the girl's original position at: 2.37 (meters)

Explanation:

We need to use the Newton's law, exactly the second law that relate force, mass and acceleration as: F=m*a with this we can get both accelerations; solving for acceleration a=\frac{F}{m}. Now a_{girl}=\frac{5.76}{42.3}=0.14 (m/s^{2}) anda_{sled}=\frac{5.76}{7.93}=0.73(m/s^{2}). Then knowing that they both travel at the same time and assuming that the distance among the girl and the sled is: 15.0-x, so, x=\frac{1}{2}*a_{girl}*t^{2} and15.0-x=\frac{1}{2}*a_{sled}*t^{2}, solving for the time we get:t=\sqrt{\frac{2x}{a_{girl} } } and t=\sqrt{\frac{2*(15.0-x)}{a_{sled} } } with this equations we solving for the x that is the distance between the girl and the sled after the apply the force and we get:\sqrt{\frac{2x}{a_{girl}}} = \sqrt{\frac{2*(15.0-x)}{a_{sled} }. Finally we get:\frac{x}{a_{girl} }=\frac{(15.0-x)}{a_{sled} } and replacing the values we have got:\frac{x}{0.14} =\frac{(15.0-x)}{0.73} so 5.33*x=15-x so x=2.37 (meters).

Which wavelength produces fluorescence? Why do you think this wavelength produces fluorescence while the other does not?
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

Long wavelength

Explanation:

Wavelengths that corresponds to the bands of blue and red are strongly absorbed whereas the wavelengths that lie in the mid-range corresponds to green light that are absorbed weakly.

Fluorescence produced is always directed towards longer wavelengths of the spectra as compared to the corresponding spectra for absorption.

a person dives off the edge of aa cliff 33m above the surface of the sea. assuming that air resistance is negligible, how long d
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

The time is t = 2.595 \  s

The speed is v = 25.43 \ m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The height of the cliff is  h =  33 \  m

 Generally from kinematic equation we have that

       h  =  ut + \frac{1}{2} gt^2

before the jump the persons initial velocity is  u =  0 m/s

 So

        33   =  0 * t + \frac{1}{2} 9.8 * t^2

=>      t = 2.595 \  s

Generally from kinematic equation

     v= u + gt

=>  v= 0 + 9.8 * 2.595

=>  v = 25.43 \ m/s
