Answer:

0.79 m/s

Explanation:

First of all, we analyze the vertical motion of the ball. It is a free fall motion, so its vertical displacement is given by

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

s = 1.95 m is the displacement

u = 0 is the initial vertical velocity

t is the time

a=g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

Solving for t, we find the time it takes for the ball to reach the ground:

t=\sqrt{\frac{2s}{a}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(1.95)}{9.8}}=0.63 s

Now we can analyze the horizontal motion: this is a uniform motion with constant speed, so the horizontal distance covered by the ball is

d=v_x t

where

d = 0.5 m is the horizontal distance covered

t = 0.63 s is the time

Solving for vx, we find the horizontal velocity of the ball:

v_x = \frac{d}{t}=\frac{0.5}{0.63}=0.79 m/s

And this velocity is constant during the motion, so the ball was moving at 0.79 m/s when it rolls off the table.

The rear wheel of a 150 kg tricycle accidentally ran over a nail. The circular tip of the nail has a diameter of 0.001 m. How mu
Brut [27]

The pressure experienced by the wheel of the tricycle is 1.85×10¹⁰ N/m²

<h3>What is pressure?</h3>

Pressure can be defined as the force acting perpendicular per unit area on the surface of a body. The S.I unit of pressure is N/m²

To calculate the pressure of the wheel of the tricycle, we use the formula below

Formula:

  • P = 4mg/πd².............. Equation 1

Where:

  • P = Pressure of the tricycle wheel
  • m = mass of the wheel
  • d = diameter of the wheel
  • g = acceleration due to gravity
  • π = pie.

From the question,

Given:

  • m = 150 kg
  • d = 0.001 m
  • g = 9.8 m/s²
  • π = 3.14

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • P = 4(150)(9.8)/(0.001²×3.14)
  • P = 5880/0.00000314
  • P = 1.85×10¹⁰ N/m²

Hence, The pressure experienced by the wheel of the tricycle is 1.85×10¹⁰ N/m².

what is the electrical potential at the surface of gold nucleus? The radius of a gold atom is 6.6*10​
MaRussiya [10]

Complete question is;

What is the electrical potential at the surface of gold nucleus? The radius of a gold atom is 6.6 × 10​^(-5) m and atomic number z = 79.

Answer:

172.36 × 10^(-5) V

Explanation:

We are given;

Radius; r = 6.6 × 10^(-5) m

Atomic number; Z = 79

Formula for Electric potential here is;

V = kZe/r

Where;

e is charge on proton = 1.6 × 10^(-19) C

k has a constant value of 9 × 10^(9) N⋅m²/C²,

​Thus;

V = (79 × 1.6 × 10^(-19) × 9 × 10^(9))/(6.6 × 10^(-5))

V = 172.36 × 10^(-5) V
