Answer:

The value is $m \approx 310$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The focal length of the objective is $f_o = 1.0 \ cm$

The focal length of the eyepiece is $f_e = 2.0 \ cm$

The tube length is $L = 25 \ cm$

Generally the magnitude of the overall magnification is mathematically represented as

$m = m_o * m_e$

Where $m_o$ is the objective magnification which is mathematically represented as

$m_o = \frac{L}{f_o }$

=> $m_o = \frac{25}{1 }$

=> $m_o = 25$

$m_e$ is the eyepiece magnification which is mathematically evaluated as

$m_e = \frac{L }{f_e }$

$m_e = \frac{25 }{ 2}$

$m_e = 12.5 \ cm$

So

$m = 25 * 12.5$

$m \approx 310$

A ball rolls down the hill which has a vertical height of 15 m. Ignoring friction what would be the gravitational potential ener

trasher [3.6K]

a) Potential energy: 147 m [J]

The gravitational potential energy of an object is given by

$U=mgh$

where

m is its mass

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

h is the height of the object above the ground

In this problem,

h = 15 m

We call 'm' the mass of the ball, since we don't know it

So, the potential energy of the ball at the top of the hill is

$U=(m)(9.8)(15)=147 m$ (J)

b) Velocity of the ball at the bottom of the hill: 17.1 m/s

According to the law of conservation of energy, in absence of friction all the potential energy of the ball is converted into kinetic energy as the ball reaches the bottom of the hill. Therefore we can write:

$U=K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

v is the final velocity of the ball

We know from part a) that

U = 147 m

Substituting into the equation above,

$147 m = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

And re-arranging for v, we find the velocity:

$v=\sqrt{2\cdot 147}=17.1 m/s$

What is the minimum amount of data points an experiment should gather?

nydimaria [60]

The answer is "Three".

At the point when individuals take studies for factual purposes or when the Statistics Agency comes around and gets everyone's data, data from one individual is one information point for them. Toward the finish of its exploration or overview, the organization will have accumulated numerous bits of data from numerous individuals. One piece of information equals with one data point.

A 460 g model rocket is on a cart that is rolling to the right at a speed of 3.0 m/s. The rocket engine, when it is fired, exert

ollegr [7]

Answer:

The rocket should be launched at a horizontal distance of <u>6.45 m</u> left of the loop.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the rocket model (m) = 460 g = 0.460 kg [1 g = 0.001 kg]

Speed of the cart (v) = 3.0 m/s

Thrust force by the rocket engine (F) = 8.5 N

Vertical height of the loop (y) = 20 m

Let the horizontal distance left to the loop for launch be 'x'. Also, let 't' be the time taken by the rocket to reach the loop.

Now, there are two types of motion associated with the rocket- one is horizontal and the other vertical.

So, we will apply kinematics of motion in the two directions separately.

Vertical motion:

Given:

Force acting in the vertical direction is given as:

$F_y=F-mg=8.5-0.46\times 9.8=3.992\ N$

So, acceleration in the vertical direction is given as:

Acceleration = Force ÷ mass

$a_y=\frac{F_y}{m}=\frac{3.992\ N}{0.46\ kg}=8.678\ m/s^2$

Vertical displacement of rocket is same as the height of loop. So, $y=20\ m$

There is no initial velocity in the vertical direction. So, $u_y=0\ m/s$

Now, applying equation of motion in vertical direction. we have:

$y=u_yt+\frac{1}{2}a_yt^2\\\\20=0+\frac{1}{2}\times 8.678t^2\\\\20=4.339t^2\\\\t^2=\frac{20}{4.339}\\\\t=\sqrt{\frac{20}{4.339}}=2.15\ s$

Now, time taken to reach the loop is 2.15 s.

Horizontal motion:

There is no acceleration in the horizontal motion. So, displacement in the horizontal direction is equal to the product of horizontal speed and time.

Also, displacement of the rocket in the horizontal direction is nothing but the horizontal distance of its launch left of the loop. So,

$x=vt\\\\x=3.0\ m/s\times 2.15\ s\\\\x=6.45\ m$

Therefore, the rocket should be launched at a horizontal distance of 6.45 m left of the loop.
