Answer:

a) h=25.7\ m

b) v'=21.8733\ m.s^{-1}

Explanation:

Given:

  • weight of the stone, w=5.3\ N
  • initial velocity of vertical projection, u=23\ m.s^{-1}
  • air drag acting opposite to the motion of the stone, D=0.266\ N

The mass of the stone:

m=\frac{w}{g}

m=\frac{5.3}{9.8}

m=0.5408\ kg

Now the acceleration of the stone opposite of the motion:

D=m.d

where:

d = deceleration

0.266=0.5408\times d

d=0.4918\ m.s^{-2}

<u>In course of going up the net acceleration on the stone will be:</u>

g'=g+d

g'=9.8+0.4918

g'=10.2918\ m.s^{-2}

a)

Now using the equation of motion:

v^2=u^2-2 g'.h

where:

v= final velocity when the stone reaches at the top of the projectile = 0

h = height attained by the stone before starting to fall down

0^2=23^2-2\times 10.2918\times h

h=25.7\ m

b)

during the course of descend from the top height of the projectile:

initial velocity, v=0\ m.s^{-1}

The acceleration will be:

g"=g-d

g"=9.8-0.4918

g"=9.3082\ m.s^{-2}

here the gravity still acts downwards but the drag acceleration acts in the direction opposite to the motion of the stone, now the stone is falling down hence the drag  acts upwards.

Using equation of  motion:

v'^2=v^2+2g".h (+ve acceleration because it acts in the direction of motion)

v'^2=0^2+2\times 9.3082\times 25.7

v'=21.8733\ m.s^{-1}

What difficulty will you encounter if you only have data from two recording station?
denpristay [2]

<span>If you have only two data from two recording stations then you will be having a hard time finding the correct location of the epicenter. This is because triangulation method requires 3 recording station. If you have 2 recording station, the 2 circles will intersect at 2 points giving you 2 locations that could possibly be the epicenter.</span>

Sergio [31]

Answer:

a) y = 2.4 x 10⁻³ m = 0.24 cm

b) y = 3.2 x 10⁻³ m = 0.32 cm

Explanation:

The formula of Young's Double Slit experiment will be used here:

y = \frac{\lambda L}{d}\\\\

where,

y = distance between dark spots = ?

λ = wavelength

L = distance of screen = 2 m

d = slit width = 4 x 10⁻⁴ m

a) FOR λ = 480 nm = 4.8 x 10⁻⁷ m:

y = \frac{(4.8\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m)(2\ m)}{4\ x\ 10^{-4}\ m}

<u>y = 2.4 x 10⁻³ m = 0.24 cm</u>

<u></u>

a) FOR λ = 640 nm = 6.4 x 10⁻⁷ m:

y = \frac{(6.4\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m)(2\ m)}{4\ x\ 10^{-4}\ m}

<u>y = 3.2 x 10⁻³ m = 0.32 cm</u>

W=20 e(-kt)  
A. Rearranging gives k= -(ln(w/20)/t 
 Substituting w= 10 and solving gives k=0.014 
 B. Using W=20e(-kt). After 0 hours, W=20. After 24 hours, W=14.29g. After 1 week (24x7=168h) W=1.9g 
 C. Rearranging gives t=-(ln(10/20)/k. Substituting w=1 and solving gives t=214 hours. 
 D. Differentiating gives dW/ dt = -20ke(-kt). Solving for t=100 gives dW/dt = 0.07g/h. Solving for t=1000 gives 0.0000002g/h 
 E. dW/dt = -20ke(-kt). But W=20e(-kt) so dW/dt = -kW
