A rocket is launched from a height of 3 m with an initial velocity of 15 m/s What is the maximum height of the rocket? When will

this occur?

If no extra acceleration is added to the rocket, then its velocity at time <em>t</em> is

<em>v</em> = 15 m/s - <em>g t</em>

where <em>g</em> = 9.80 m/s² is the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity.

Also, recall that

<em>v</em>² - <em>u</em>² = 2 <em>a </em>∆<em>x</em>

where <em>u</em> is initial speed, <em>v</em> is final speed, <em>a</em> is acceleration, and ∆<em>x</em> is net displacement.

At the rocket's maximum height ∆<em>x</em>, the velocity is 0. So, the maximum height is

0² - (15 m/s)² = 2 (-<em>g</em>) ∆<em>x</em>

∆<em>x</em> = (15 m/s)² / (2 * (9.80 m/s²)) ≈ 11.48 m

But this assumes the rocket is launched from the ground. We're given that the rocket is launced from 3 m above the ground, so we need to add this to the height above. So the maximum height is closer to 14.48 m.

As mentioned before, this happens when vertical velocity is 0:

0 = 15 m/s - <em>g t</em>

<em>t</em> = (15 m/s) / (9.80 m/s²) ≈ 1.53 s

Monochromatic light of a given wavelength is incident on a metal surface. However, no photoelectrons are emitted. If electrons a
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

Light of a shorter wavelength should be used.

Explanation:

This is studied in the phenomenon called photoelectric effect, in which light is able to release electrons from a metal, said electrons are called photoelectrons .

The experiments that have been carried out show that <u>increasing  or decreasing the intensity of the light will not cause the photoelectrons to be emitted</u>, what will cause the photoelectrons to be emitted is to increase the frequency of the incident light.

And a higher frequency corresponds to a shorter wavelength according to the equation:

f=\frac{c}{\lambda}

(where f is frequency, c the speed of light, and \lambda the wavelength)

So the answer is that the wavelength of the light must be shortened to cause the emission of electrones.

Una caja de 5.0kg de masa se acelera desde el reposo a través del piso mediante una fuerza a una tasa de 2.0 /s2 durante 7.0s en
Nady [450]

Responder:

<h2>490 julios </h2>

Explicación:

Se dice que el trabajo se realiza cuando una fuerza aplicada a un objeto hace que el objeto se mueva a través de una distancia. El trabajo realizado por un cuerpo se expresa mediante la fórmula;

Workdone = Fuerza * Distancia

Como Fuerza = masa * aceleración,

Workdone = masa * aceleración * distancia

Masa dada = 5.0kg, aceleración = 2.0m / s² d =?

Para obtener d, usaremos una de las leyes del movimiento,

d = ut + 1 / 2at²

u = 0 (ya que el cuerpo acelera desde el reposo) yt = 7.0s

d = 0 + 1/2 (2) (7) ²

d = 49m

Workdone = 5 * 2 * 49

Workdone = 490 Julios

Imagine you are mpho:how can you help your friend (phenyo) not to be influenced by media? you really feel she needs some help be
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

One of the ways to help someone not to be influenced by media is:

  • Encourage independent thinking.
  • Let her know that she should make sure the information she is consuming is free from bias and is factual.

<h3>What is Media Influence?</h3>

This refers to the effects and reactions which the mass media has on the people who listen to them by shaping their views and by controlling the narrative.

With this in mind, we can note that if a person is overtly influenced by the media, then such a person lacks independent thinking and becomes emotional by what he watches on the television or reads from an online source.

This can be changed through the encouragement of independent thinking, and the need to check for factual information from the media news and also to focus more on studies.
