A rock of mass m is thrown straight up into the air with initial speed |v0 | and initial position y = 0 and it rises up to a max

imum height of y = h. A second rock with mass 2m (twice the mass of the original) is thrown straight up with an initial speed of 2|v0 |. What maximum height does the second rock reach?

Answer:

Explanation:

Case 1:

mass = m

initial velocity = vo

final velocity = 0

height = y

Use third equation of motion

v² = u² - 2as

0 = vo² - 2 g y

y = vo² / 2g       ... (1)

Case 2:

mass = 2m

initial velocity = 2vo

final velocity = 0

height = y '

Use third equation of motion

v² = u² - 2as

0 = 4vo² - 2 g y'

y ' = 4vo² / 2g

y' = 4 y

Thus, the second rock reaches the 4 times the distance traveled by the first rock.

A ball is thrown upward from the ground with an initial speed of 25 m/s; at the same instant, another ball is dropped from a bui
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

t = o.6 s

Explanation:

Let ball thrown from below be A and ball dropped from above be B.

A and B meet when they both are same level above the ground. Then let A moved up a distance d and B dropped a distance h. Then you know

d + h = 15 m  ---------------(1)

Now apply s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at²

To A upwards,

d = 25t - \frac{1}{2}gt²  -----------------(2)

To B downwards,

h = 0 + \frac{1}{2}gt² ----------------(3)

(1) = (2) + (3) ⇒ 15 = 25t

                         t = 0.6 s

A radioactive element undergoes decay via the loss of two alpha particles to form a stable daughter isotope. Following the decay
jeyben [28]

Answer:

Atomic number of the daughter isotope = (Atomic number of the parent isotope) - 4

Explanation:

An alpha particle has atomic number of 2 and a mass number of 4

Losing two alpha particles would lead to a reduction of 4 in atomic number and 8 in mass number for the radioactive isotope, to give the stable daughter isotope.
