A ball is thrown horizontally from the top of a building 109 m high. The ball strikes the ground at a point 75 m horizontally aw

ay from and below the point of release. What is the speed of the ball just before it strikes the ground? (note: speed is magnitude of velocity at that point).

Answer:

The speed of the ball just before it strikes the ground is 15.90 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Height = 109 m

Distance = 75 m

We need to calculate the time

Using formula for horizontal projectile

$t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2h}{g}}$

Where, h = height

Put the value into the formula

$t=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times109}{9.8}}$

$t=4.716\ sec$

We need to calculate the speed of the ball just before it strikes the ground

Using formula of speed

$v =\dfrac{d}{t}$

Where, v = speed

d = distance

t = time

Put the value into the formula

$v=\dfrac{75}{4.716}$

$v=15.90\ m/s$

Hence, The speed of the ball just before it strikes the ground is 15.90 m/s.

How much time will it take for a truck to travel 20 meters if it is traveling at 4 m/s?

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

<h2>The answer is 5 s</h2>

Explanation:

The time taken can be found by using the formula

$t = \frac{d}{v} \\$

d is the distance

v is the velocity

From the question we have

$t = \frac{20}{4} \\$

We have the final answer as

<h3>5 s</h3>

A triply charged ion with velocity 7.00 × 10^6 m/s moves in a path of radius 36.0 cm in a magnetic field of 0.55 T in a mass spe

saw5 [17]

Answer:

Mass of ion will be $22\times 10^{-13}kg$

Explanation:

We have given ion is triply charged that is $q=3\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}=4.8\times 10^{-19}C$

Radius r = 36 cm = 0.36 m

Velocity of the electron $v=7\times 10^6m/sec$

Magnetic field B = 0.55 T

We know that radius of the path is given by $r=\frac{mv}{qB}$

$m=\frac{rqB}{v}=\frac{0.36\times 4.8\times 10^{-19}\times 7\times 10^6}{0.55}=22\times 10^{-13}kg$

Assume an axon has an internal diameter of 1μm and a myelin sheath 1μm thick. The internal specific resistance is 100 Ω cm. For

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

$1.27\times 10^{12}\Omega/m$

Explanation:

We are given that

Diameter=d= $\mu m$

Thickness= $1\mu m$

Radius= $r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{1}{2}\mu m=0.5\times 10^{-6} m$

Using $1\mu m=10^{-6} m$

Dielectric constant=8

Resistance = $R=2\times 10^5\Omega cm^2$

Internal specific resistance=r=100 ohm cm= $100\times \frac{1}{100}\Omega-m=1\Omega m$

Using 1 m=100 cm

Internal resistance per unit length= $\frac{r}{A}=\frac{1}{\pi r^2}=\frac{1}{3.14\times (0.5\times 10^{-6})^2}=1.27\times 10^{12}\Omega/m$

Using $\pi=3.14$

Internal resistance per unit length= $1.27\times 10^{12}\Omega/m$
