Answer:

1 sec

Explanation:

Horizontal distance (x) = 6m

Vertical distance (y) = 1.25m

Hang time is the duration the object is in the air before it reaches maximum height.

The time of free fall is given by

t = √2y/g

g = acceleration due to gravity

t = √(2*1.25)/9.8

t = √2.5/9.8

t = 0.5secs

Hang time = 2*0.5

= 1 sec

Question 2.

choli [55]

Explanation:

1 inch = 25.4 mm

1 foot = 12 inches

1 mile = 5260 feet

1 cm = 0.01 m or 10 mm

Now Sammy's height is 5 feet and 5.3 inches.

(a) We need to find Sammy's height in inches.

Since, 1 foot = 12 inches

5 feet = 5 × 12 inches = 60 inches

Now, 5 feet and 5.3 inches = 60 inches + 5.3 inches = 65.3 inches

Sammy's height is 65.3 inches.

(b) We need to find Sammy's height in feet.

Since, 1 foot = 12 inches

$1\ \text{inch}=\dfrac{1}{12}\ \text{feet}$

So,

$5.3\ \text{inch}=\dfrac{5.3}{12}\ \text{feet}=0.4416\ \text{feet}$

5 feet and 5.3 inches = 5 feet + 0.4416 feet = 5.44 feet

Sammy's height is 5.44 feet.

What are the magnitude and direction of the acceleration of an electron at a point where the electric field has magnitude 6100 n

Hoochie [10]

Force on electron due to electric field is given by

$F = eE$

$F = 1.6 * 10^{-19}* 6100$

$F = 9.76 * 10^{-16} N$

now the acceleration is given by

$a = \frac{F}{m}$

$a = \frac{9.76 * 10^{-16}}{9.1 * 10^{-31}}$

$a = 1.07 * 10^{15} m/s^2$

so above is the magnitude of acceleration and its direction is opposite to field as electron is negatively charged so direction is towards SOUTH

Is kinetic energy is always transformed into potential energy.

serious [3.7K]

Potential energy is energy stored in an object due to its position or arrangement. Kinetic energy is energy of an object due to its movement - its motion. All types of energy and be transformed into other types of energy. This is true for potential and Kinetic energy as well.
