why is a train more difficult to stop then a rolling ball even if they are traveling at the same speed? URGENT

1 answer:

5 0

Think of the formula force=mass x acceleration. even though they have the same acceleration, a train has more mass. is that helpful?

A ball is thrown upward. As it passes 5.0 m height it is traveling at 4.0 m/s up. What was its initial upward velocity? (a) 7.0

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

c) 10.7m/s

Explanation:

From the exercise we know that at 5m the ball is traveling at 4m/s

To calculate its initial velocity we need to solve the following equation:

$v_{y}^{2}=v_{oy}^{2}+2g(y-y_{o})$

Since the initial height is 0

Solving for $v_{o}$

$v_{oy}=\sqrt{v_{y}^{2}-2gy}=\sqrt{(4m/s)^2-2(-9.8m/s^2)(5m)}=10.7m/s$

The nonreflective coating on a camera lens with an index of refraction of 1.21 is designed to minimize the reflection of 570-nm

lord [1]

Answer: 117.8 nm

Explanation:

Given,

Nonreflective coating refractive index : n = 1.21

Index of refraction: $n_0$ = 1.52

Wave length of light = λ = 570 nm = $570\times10^{-9}\ m$

$\text{ Thickness}=\dfrac{\lambda}{4n}$

$=\dfrac{570\times10^{-9}\ m}{4\times1.21}\\\\\approx\dfrac{117.8\times 10^{-9}\ m}{1}\\\\=117.8\text{ nm}$

Hence, the minimum thickness of the coating that will accomplish= 117.8 nm
