On the moon, the gravitational acceleration is 1/6 of 9.8 m/s², so
g = 9.8/6 = 1.633 m/s²
Launch speed = 35 m/s
Launch angle = 27° above the horizontal.
Therefore,
The horizontal velocity is
u = 35*cos(27) = 31.1852 m/s
The vertical launch velocity is
v = 35*sin(27) = 15.8897 m/s
Part A
When the ball reaches maximum height, the time requires is given by
0 = v - gt
t = v/g = 15.8897/1.6333 = 9.7286 s
This is one half of the time of flight, which is
2*9.7286 = 19.457 s
Answer: 19.46 s (2 sig. figs)
This is an example of slowing down because you encountered heavy traffic or just got tired.
Also, the numbers show acceleration.
<u>Answer</u>:
(C) The positive charge of the alpha particles and the negative charge of the electrons are the properties Rutherford used in his experiment
<u>Explanation</u>:
In his scattering experiment, scientist Ernest Rutherford used the property of positively charged alpha particles and negatively charge electrons. He performed this experiment by passing some of the alpha particles through a gold foil. The result was that the some alpha particles scattered while some passed through the gold foil without collision.
He concluded that the alpha particles are centrally positively charged and needed a large amount repelling force. This experiment of Rutherford is also known as Rutherford model of atom. This experiment helped him in doing so many other discoveries.
