Let the key is free falling, therefore from equation of motion

h = ut +\frac{1}{2}gt^2..

Take initial velocity, u=0, so

h = 0\times t + \frac{1}{2}g t^2= \frac{1}{2}gt^2.

h = 0\times t + \frac{1}{2}g t^2= \frac{1}{2}gt^2 \\\ t =\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }

As velocity moves with constant velocity of 3.5 m/s, therefore we can use formula

d= v \times t

From above substituting t,

d = v \times \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }.

Now substituting all the given values and g = 9.8 m/s^2, we get

d = 3.5 \ m/s \times \sqrt{\frac{2 \times 45 m}{9.8 m/s^2} } = 10.60 m.

Thus, the distance the boat was from the point of impact when the key was released is 10.60 m.

If a bottle is being squeezed with a force of 10 Newtons and the area of the bottle is 15

squared inches. What is the pressure??

Answer:

1025.64 N/m²

Explanation:

Pressure: This can be defined as the ratio of force to area. The si unit of pressure is N/m².

From the question,

P = F/A........................ Equation 1

Where F = Force, A = Area.

Given: F = 10 Newtons, A = 15 Squared Inches = (15×0.00065) = 0.00975 m²

Substitute these values into equation 1

P = 10/0.00975

P = 1025.64 N/m²

Hence the pressure of the bottle is 1025.64 N/m²

Two parallel slits are illuminated by light composed of two wavelengths. One wavelength is λA = 622nm. The other wavelength is λ
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

\lambda_{B}=414.67 nm

Explanation:

In this question we have given

\lambda_{A}=622nm

we have to find

\lambda_{B}=?

We know that

optical path difference for bright fringe is given as=n\lambda

Here,

n is order of fringe

and optical path difference for dark fringe is given as=(n+.5)\lambda

since the light with wavelength \lambda_{A} produces its third-order bright fringe at the same place where the light with wavelength \lambda_{B} produces its fourth dark fringe  

it means

optical path difference for 3rd order bright fringe= optical path difference for forth order dark fringe

Therefore,

3\lambda_{A}=(4+.5)\lambda_{B}...............(1)

Put value of \lambda_{A} in equation (1)

3 \times 622=(4+.5)\lambda_{B}

1866=4.5\lambda_{B}

\lambda_{B}=414.67 nm

If potential energy at point A is 12 joules, what is the potential energy at D?
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

In D: 3J

Explanation:

Potential energy: Ep=mgh where m is the mass, h altitude.

In point A: h=20cm=0.2m

Epa=12=0.2×mg. Thus mg=12/0.2=60N

For point D: hd=5cm=0.05m

Epd=mg×0.05=60×0.05=3J
