The  final kinetic energy of the ball is 2.45 J

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of energy.

In absence of frictional effect, the mechanical energy of the apple must be conserved during the fall. So we can write:

U_i +K_i = U_f + K_f

where :

U_i is the initial potential energy, at the top

K_i is the initial kinetic energy, at the top

U_f is the final potential energy, at the bottom

K_f is the final kinetic energy, at the bottom

By explicing the potential energy, we can rewrite the equation as:

mgh_i + K_i = mgh_f + K_f

where:

m = 0.5 kg is the mass of the apple

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

h_i = 2 m is the initial height

h_f=1.50 m is the final height

The initial kinetic energy is zero, since the ball starts from rest:

K_i = 0

Therefore we can solve the equation for K_f, the final kinetic energy of the ball:

K_f = mg(h_i-h_f)=(0.5)(9.8)(2-1.50)=2.45 J

Compared to the weak nuclear force the electromagnetic force
Crazy boy [7]

Explanation:

Weak nuclear force:

The interaction between the subatomic particles is called weak nuclear force.

The weak nuclear force is one of the four fundamental forces.

The weak nuclear force is effective at very short distance.

The range and relative strength of weak nuclear force is 10⁻¹⁸ m and 10²⁵ with respect to gravitational force respectively

Deuterium is formed due to the fusion of protons and neutrons under the action the weak force.

Example : Beta decay

Electromagnetic force:  

The interaction between the charged particles is called electromagnetic force.

The electromagnetic force is one of the four fundamental forces.

The electromagnetic force is effective at long range distance.  

The range and relative strength of electromagnetic force is infinity and 10³⁶ with respect to gravitational force respectively

Example : light

Frequency of the wave below?
agasfer [191]

It's hard to tell exactly what's happening in that 110 cm that you marked over the wave. What is under the ends of the long arrow ? How many complete waves ? I counted 4.5 complete waves ... maybe ?

If there are 4.5 complete waves in 110cm, then the length of 1 wave is (110/4.5)=24.44cm.

Frequency = speed/wavelength

Frequency = 2m/s /0.2444m

Frequency = 8.18 Hz

A student who weighs 550 N is wearing a backpack that weighs 80 N. The student is standing still on level ground. Give your answ
siniylev [52]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) The magnitude of the net force on the student = 0 N since the student is standing still on level ground and upward reaction force = downward force.

b) the magnitude of the contact force on the student by the backpack = 80 N since the student was backing the backpack

c) the magnitude of the contact force o the student by the ground = 550 N + 80 N = 630 N reactional force on the student
