Free Fall: A rock is thrown directly upward from the edge of a flat roof of a building that is 56.3 meters tall. The rock misses
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

v₀₁= 5.525 m / s

Explanation

Freefall Formulas :

The sign of acceleration due to gravity  (g) is positive if the object is going down and negative if the object is going up.

vf= v₀+gt  

vf²=v₀²+2*g*h

h= v₀t+ (1/2)*g*t²

Where:  

h: hight in meters (m)    

t : time in seconds (s)

v₀: initial speed in m/s  

vf: final speed in m/s  

g: acceleration due to gravity in m/s²

Kinematics of the rock from the starting point with vo until it reaches its maximum height:

vf₁= v₀₁-gt₁  :vf₁ =0 to maximum height

0= v₀₁-gt₁

v₀₁ = g*t₁

t₁ =v₀₁ / g      Equation (1)

vf₁²= v₀₁²-2*g*h₁   : vf₁ =0 to maximum height

0 = v₀₁²-2*g*h₁

2*g*h₁ = v₀₁²

h₁ = (v₀₁²)/(2g)   Equation (2)

Kinematics of the rock when it falls from the maximum height until it touches the floor

h₂= v₀₂t+ (1/2)*g*t₂²  v₀₂=vf₁ =0

h₂= 0+ (1/2)*g*t₂²

h₂= (1/2)*g*t₂²   Equation (3)

Equation that relates h₁ to h₂

h₂=  h₁ + 56.3  ,  h₁ = (v₀₁²)/(2g)

h₂= (v₀₁²)/(2g) + 56.3  Equation (4)

Equation that relates t₁ to t₂

t₁ + t₂ =4 s

t₂ =4 -t₁

t₂ =4 -(v₀₁/g )

Calculation of v₀₁

We replace equation 4 and equation 5 in equation 3

(v₀₁²)/(2g) + 56.3 = (1/2)*g*(4 -(v₀₁/g ) )²

(v₀₁²)/(2g) + 56.3 = (1/2)*g* (16 - 2*4*(v₀₁/g )+((v₀₁/g )²)

we eliminate (v₀₁²)/(2g) on both sides of the equation

56.3 = (1/2)*g* (16 - 2*4*(v₀₁/g ))

56.3 = 78.4 - 4*v₀₁

4*v₀₁ =78.4-56.3

v₀₁= (78.4-56.3) / ( 4)

v₀₁= 5.525 m / s

An electron in a cathode-ray beam passes between 2.5cm long parallel-plate electrodes that are 6.0mm apart. A 2.1mT, 2.5-cm-wide
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

(a). The speed of electron is 1.56\times10^{7}\ m/s.

(b). The radius of electron is 4.2\ cm

Explanation:

Given that,

Length = 2.5 cm

Distance = 6.0 mm

Magnetic field = 2.1 T

Potential difference = 700 V

(a). We need to calculate the electron's speed

Using formula of speed

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2eV}{m}}

Put the value into the formula

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times1.6\times10^{-19}\times700}{9.1\times10^{-31}}}

v=15689290.81\ m/s

v=1.56\times10^{7}\ m/s

(b). We need to calculate the radius of electron

Using formula of centripetal force

\dfrac{mv^2}{r}=qvB

r=\dfrac{mv}{qB}

Where,

m = mass of electron

v = speed of electron

r = radius

q = charge of electron

B = magnetic field

Put the value into the formula

r=\dfrac{9.1\times10^{-31}\times1.56\times10^{7}}{1.6\times10^{-19}\times2.1\times10^{-3}}

r=0.042\ m

r=4.2\ cm

Hence, (a). The speed of electron is 1.56\times10^{7}\ m/s.

(b). The radius of electron is 4.2 cm
