Answer:

27.5 m/s

Explanation:

applying motion equations we can find the answer,

v = u + a*t

Let assume ,

u = starting speed(velocity)

v = Final speed (velocity)

t =  time taken for the motion

a = acceleration

by the time of reaching the highest point subjected to the gravity , the speed should be equal to zero  (only a vertical speed component is there)

for the complete motion it takes 5.5 s. that means to reach the highest point it will take 5.5/2 =2.75 seconds

we consider the motion upwards , in this case the gravitational  acceleration should be negative in upwards (assume g=10 m/s2)

that is,

v = 0 , a = -10ms^{-2}    , t =2.75

v = u + at

0 = u -10*2.75

u = 27.5 ms^{-1}

A physical system that is isolated from its environment is:
kompoz [17]

Closed

Explanation:

A physical system that is isolated from its environment is said to be a closed system.

In a closed system, energy can be exchange but matter cannot be exchanged.

  • A closed system sightly permits the only certain types of exchange.
  • These systems are usually used to control and limit the impact of the environment on a system.
  • Experiments can be conducted on the premises of any the interactions.

Charge Q is distributed uniformly throughout the volume of an insulating sphere of radius R = 4.00 cm. At a distance of r = 8.00
Elena L [17]

Answer:

2.62898\times 10^{-6}\ C/m^3

1979.99974\ N/C

Explanation:

k = Coulomb constant = 8.99\times 10^{9}\ Nm^2/C^2

Q = Charge

r = Distance = 8 cm

R = Radius = 4 cm

Electric field is given by

E=\dfrac{kQ}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow Q=\dfrac{Er^2}{k}\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{990\times 0.08^2}{8.99\times 10^{9}}\\\Rightarrow Q=7.04783\times 10^{-10}\ C

Volume charge density is given by

\sigma=\dfrac{Q}{\dfrac{4}{3}\pi R^3}\\\Rightarrow \sigma=\dfrac{7.04783\times 10^{-10}}{\dfrac{4}{3}\pi (0.04)^3}\\\Rightarrow \sigma=2.62898\times 10^{-6}\ C/m^3

The volume charge density for the sphere is 2.62898\times 10^{-6}\ C/m^3

E=\dfrac{kQr}{R^3}\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{8.99\times 10^9\times 7.04783\times 10^{-10}\times 0.02}{0.04^3}\\\Rightarrow E=1979.99974\ N/C

The magnitude of the electric field is 1979.99974\ N/C
