sdas [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

A. The time taken for the car to stop is 3.14 secs

B. The initial velocity is 81.64 ft/s

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Acceleration (a) = 26ft/s2

Distance (s) = 256ft

Final velocity (V) = 0

Time (t) =?

Initial velocity (U) =?

A. Determination of the time taken for the car to stop.

Let us obtain an express for time (t)

Acceleration (a) = Velocity (V)/time(t)

a = V/t

Velocity (V) = distance (s) /time (t)

V = s/t

a = s/t^2

Cross multiply

a x t^2 = s

Divide both side by a

t^2 = s/a

Take the square root of both side

t = √(s/a)

Now we can obtain the time as follow

Acceleration (a) = 26ft/s2

Distance (s) = 256ft

Time (t) =..?

t = √(s/a)

t = √(256/26)

t = 3.14 secs

Therefore, the time taken for the car to stop is 3.14 secs

B. Determination of the initial speed of the car.

V = U + at

Final velocity (V) = 0

Deceleration (a) = –26ft/s2

Time (t) = 3.14 sec

Initial velocity (U) =.?

0 = U – 26x3.14

0 = U – 81.64

Collect like terms

U = 81.64 ft/s

Therefore, the initial velocity is 81.64 ft/s

What is the only possible value of ml for an electron in an s orbital?
Archy [21]

Answer:

  • zero

Explanation:

m_l     is the magnetic quantum number.

The only possible value for the magnetic quantum number for an electron in an s orbital is 0.

The first three quantun numbers are:

  • n: principal quantum number. It may have positive integer values: 1, 2, 3, 4,5, 6, 7, ...

  • l : Azimuthal or angular momentum quantum number. It may have integer values from 0 to n - 1.

       This quantum number is related to the type (or shape) of the orbital:

        For s orbitals l=0

        For p orbitals l=1

        For d orbitals l=2

         For f orbitals l=3

In this case, it is an s orbital, so we have l=0.

  • m_l , the third quantum number can have integer values  {from-l}   to    {+l}

       Since, for the s orbitals  l=0 , the only possible value for {m_l} is zero.

. 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
dedylja [7]

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.

An electric dipole is formed from ± 5.0 nC point charges spaced 3.0 mm apart. The dipole is centered at the origin, oriented alo
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

The electric field strength at point (x,y) = ( 20 mm ,0cm) is =<u>16321.0769 N/C</u>

The electric field strength at point (x,y) = (0cm, 20 mm) is =<u>35321.58999 N/C</u>

Explanation:

Question: What is the electric field strength at point (x,y) = ( 20 mm ,0cm)?

Answer:

The electric field at any given point of the dipole is given as:

E= (KP) ÷ (r^2 + a^2)^3/2

Where:

K = 9x10^9 Nm^2/c^2 (coloumb constant)

P = (0.003) (5x10^-9c) which is the movement of the dipole

(0.003) is arrived at when mm is converted to m. 3.0 mm space apart was converted to a meter.

r= the point, in the question above is 20mm = 0.02m

Now, the electric field, E can be calculated by putting the values in the formula above:

E = (KP) ÷ (r^2 + a^2)^3/2

= (9x10^9 Nm^2/c^2) (0.003 m) (5x10^-9c) ÷ [ (0.02m)^2 + (0.003)^2]^3/2

= 0.135 ÷ (8.271513x10^-6)

=<u>16321.0769 N/C</u>

 Question: What is the electric field strength at point (x,y) = (0cm, 20 mm )?

Answer:

Here, the electric field, E= 2krp ÷ (r^2 - a^2)^2

E= 2 (9x10^9 Nm^2/c^2) (0.02m) (0.003 m) (5x10^-9c) ÷ [(0.02m)^2 - (0.003)^2]^2

= 0.0054 ÷  0.000000152881

=<u>35321.58999 N/C</u>
