If an object is dropped from a height of meters, the velocity (in ) at impact is given by v= √2gh , where g=9.8m/sec^2 is the ac

celeration due to gravity.
Required:
a. Determine the impact velocity for an object dropped from a height of 10 m.
b. Determine the height required for an object to have an impact velocity of 26.8 m/sec (~ 60 mph). Round to the nearest tenth of a meter.

Answer:

A.) V = 14 m/s

B.) h = 36.6 m

Explanation:

Given the formula v = √2gh

where g = 9.8m/sec^2 is the acceleration due to gravity.

A.) Determine the impact velocity for an object dropped from a height of 10 m.

Substitute height h in the given formula

V = √2gh 

V = √2 × 9.8 × 10

V = √196

V = 14 m/s

b. Determine the height required for an object to have an impact velocity of 26.8 m/sec (~ 60 mph). Round to the nearest tenth of a meter.

Substitute the velocity in the given formula and make height h the subject of formula.

26.8 = √2 × 9.8 × h

Square both sides

718.24 = 19.6h

h = 718.24 / 19.6

h = 36.64 m

h = 36.6 m

Cobaltâ’60 is a radioactive isotope used to treat cancers of the brain and other tissues. A gamma ray emitted by an atom of this
Crank

Energy of gamma rays is given by equation

E = h\nu

here we know that

h = Planck's constant

\nu = frequency

now energy is given as

E = 4.70 MeV = 4.70 \times 10^6 \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19}

E = 7.52 \times 10^{-13} J

now by above equation

E = h\nu

7.52 \times 10^{-13} = 6.6 \times 10^{-34} \nu

\nu = 1.14 \times 10^{21} Hz

now for wavelength we can say

\lambda = \frac{c}{\nu}

\lambda = \frac{3\times 10^8}{1.14 \times 10^{21}}

\lambda = 2.63 \times 10^{-13} m

The vapor pressure of benzene, C6H6, is 40.1 mmHg at 7.6°C. What is its vapor pressure at 60.6°C? The molar heat of vaporization
ANEK [815]

Answer:

The vapor pressure at 60.6°C is 330.89 mmHg

Explanation:

Applying Clausius Clapeyron Equation

ln(\frac{P_2}{P_1}) = \frac{\delta H}{R}[\frac{1}{T_1}- \frac{1}{T_2}]

Where;

P₂ is the final vapor pressure of benzene = ?

P₁ is the initial vapor pressure of benzene = 40.1 mmHg

T₂ is the final temperature of benzene = 60.6°C = 333.6 K

T₁ is the initial temperature of benzene = 7.6°C = 280.6 K

ΔH is the molar heat of vaporization of benzene = 31.0 kJ/mol

R is gas rate = 8.314 J/mol.k

ln(\frac{P_2}{40.1}) = \frac{31,000}{8.314}[\frac{1}{280.6}- \frac{1}{333.6}]\\\\ln(\frac{P_2}{40.1}) = 3728.65 (0.003564 - 0.002998)\\\\ln(\frac{P_2}{40.1}) = 3728.65  (0.000566)\\\\ln(\frac{P_2}{40.1}) = 2.1104\\\\\frac{P_2}{40.1} = e^{2.1104}\\\\\frac{P_2}{40.1} = 8.2515\\\\P_2 = (40.1*8.2515)mmHg = 330.89 mmHg

Therefore, the vapor pressure at 60.6°C is 330.89 mmHg

A ball traveling at a speed ν0 rolls off a desk and lands at a horizontal distance x0 away from the desk, as shown in the figure
klasskru [66]

Answer:

3x_0

Explanation:

The horizontal distance covered by the ball in the falling is only determined by its horizontal motion - in fact, it is given by

d=v_x t

where

v_x is the horizontal velocity

t is the time of flight

The time of flight, instead, is only determined by the vertical motion of the ball: however, in this problem the vertical velocity is not changed (it is zero in both cases), so the time of flight remains the same.

In the first situation, the horizontal distance covered is

d=v_0 t = x_0

in the second case, the horizontal velocity is increased to

v_x' = 3v_0

And so the new distance travelled will be

d' = v_x' t = 3 v_0 t = 3 x_0

So, the distance increases linearly with the horizontal velocity.
