Answer:what are the options..?
Explanation:
Answer:
d. changing refractive index of gases in the atmosphere
Explanation:
light from a star passes through the atmosphere to reach our eyes. however, the layers of gases in the atmosphere are in constant motion, so the light gets bent and appears to be flickering.
i hope this helps! :D
Answer:
Part a)
U = 15.5 J
Part b)
h = 1.05 m
Part c)
v = 4.55 m/s
Explanation:
Part a)
Initial potential energy stored in the spring is given by

now we have

x = 20.0 cm
now from above formula we will have


Part b)
By mechanical energy conservation law we can say that initial spring potential energy stored = final gravitational potential energy at the top position



So maximum height from gun is 1.05 m
Part c)
For muzzle velocity of the ball we can use the energy conservation again
According to which the final kinetic energy of the ball = initial spring energy stored in it



Answer:
45.31 J
Explanation:
We are given that
Mass of baseball , m=0.145 kg
Initial velocity, u=0
Final velocity, v=25 m/s
We have to find the work done on the baseball to bring it from rest to 25 m/s
We know that
Work done = Change in kinetic energy
Work done, W=
Using the formula
Work done, W
Work done=
Work done, W=45.31 J
Hence, the work done on the baseball to bring it from rest to 25 m/s
=45.31 J
