A boy throws a ball into the air at 10.2 m/s. Assuming that only gravity acts on the ball, how high does it rise, in m?

Answer: 5.31 meters

Explanation: Use conservation of energy. Initial energy equals final energy. Initially, there is only kinetic energy (because height = 0 initially). At the end, kinetic energy equals 0 because at max height, there is max potential energy and the ball stops moving for a split second.

mgh = .5mv^2
Masses cancel out
gh = .5v^2
(9.8)(h) = .5(10.2^2)
Solve for h. h = 5.31 meters

in a longitudinal wave, the motion of the disturbance is in what direction relative to the wave motion?
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Longitudinal waves have the same direction of vibration as their direction of travel. This means that the movement of the medium is in the same direction as the motion of the wave.

In a lightning bolt, a large amount of charge flows during a time of 1.2 x 10-3 s. Assume that the bolt can be represented as a
ohaa [14]

Answer: 10.58 C has flowed during the lightning bolt

Explanation:

Given that;

Time of flow t = 1.2 × 10⁻³

perpendicular distance r = 21 m

Magnetic field B = 8.4 x 10⁻⁵ T

Now lets consider the expression for magnetic field;

B = u₀I / 2πr

the current flow is;

I = ( B × 2πr ) / u₀

so we substitute

I = ( (8.4 x 10⁻⁵) × 2 × 3.14 × 21 ) / 4π ×10⁻⁷

=  0.01107792 / 0.000001256

= 8820 A

Hence the charge flows during lightning bolt  will be;

q = It

so we substitute

q = 8820 × 1.2 × 10⁻³

q = 10.58 C

therefore 10.58 C has flowed during the lightning bolt

Suppose you have a coffee mug with a circular cross section and vertical sides (uniform radius). What is its inside radius if it
Oksanka [162]
Coffee mug is cylindrical shape. Therefore, 
Volume of mug = volume of cylinder = πr²h 

r = inner radius of mug. h = height of coffee = 6 cm. 
Density of coffee = Density of water = 1 g/ml 

Therefore, volume of coffee = mass/density = 400/1 = 400 ml = 400 cm³
Volume of coffee = πr²h
400= πr²(6) 
r² = 21.23
r = inner radius of mug = 4.607 cm
