How far will a free falling object fall in 8.7 secs if it started from rest? Remember acceleration is negative for free fall. Do

not use a negative number for "how far" the object fell.

Answer:

h~=371.26m

Explanation:

when an object falls we use the equations of accelerated motion. There is only one that gives distance.

x = ut +  \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}

Since we have no initial velocity (started from rest) we can get rid of the (ut) term

where a we substitute g (gravitational acceleration, constant for given heights and almost 9.81m/s^2).

h =  \frac{1}{2} g {t}^{2}  =  \frac{1}{2}  \times 9.81 \times  {8.7}^{2}  = 371.26m

The nuclear equation is incomplete. Superscript 1 Subscript 1 Baseline H + Superscript 15 Subscript 7 Baseline N yields blank +
atroni [7]

Answer:

The missing species is carbon-12 ^{12}_{\phantom{1}6}\mathrm{C}.

The nuclear equation should be ^{1}_{1}\mathrm{H} + ^{15}_{\phantom{1}7}\mathrm{N} \to ^{12}_{\phantom{1}6}\mathrm{C} + ^{1}_{1}\mathrm{H}.

Explanation:

Let A represent the mass number of the missing species, and let Z represent its atomic number.

^{\;\;\;\text{Mass number $\to$ $A$}}_{\text{Atomic number $\to$ $Z$}}\mathrm{X}.

For this question, there are three things to consider:

  • The sum of the mass numbers should be conserved.
  • Since there's no beta particle (\rm e^{-} or \mathrm{e}^{+}) involved, the sum of the atomic numbers should also be conserved.
  • The atomic number of the missing species should correspond to atomic symbol.

<h3>Mass Number</h3>

The sum of the mass numbers on the left-hand side of this reaction is: 1 + 15 = 16.

The sum of the mass number on the right-hand side (including that of the missing species) is (A + 4).

These two numbers should be the same. In other words, A + 4 = 16. Therefore, the mass number of the missing species would be 12.

<h3>Atomic Number</h3>

The sum of the atomic numbers on the left-hand side of this reaction is: 1+ 7 = 8.

The sum of the mass number on the right-hand side (including that of the missing species) is (Z + 2).

These two numbers should be the same. In other words, Z + 2 = 8. Therefore, the mass number of the missing species would be 6.

<h3>Symbol</h3>

The atomic number Z of the missing species is 6. Look up a modern periodic table. The element with atomic number

A circular hoop of diameter d hangs on a nail. what is the period of its oscillations at small amplitude?
Misha Larkins [42]

m = mass of the circular hoop

r = radius of the hoop

I = moment of inertia of the hoop

moment of inertia of the hoop about the center of hoop is given as

I = m r²

k = distance of the point of suspension from center of mass = r

using parallel axis theorem

I' = moment of inertia of hoop about the point of suspension

I' = I + m k²

I' = m r² + m k²

I' = m r² + m r²

I' = 2 m r²

Time period of oscillation for the hoop is given as

T = 2π sqrt(I'/mgk)

T = 2π sqrt(2 m r²/(mgr))

T = 2π sqrt(2 r/g)

since 2r = diameter = d

T = 2π sqrt(d/g)
