Answer:

a) 19.4 m/s

b) 19 m/s

Explanation:

a) In the given question,

the potential energy at the initial point = Ui = 0

the potential energy at the final point = Uf = mgh

the kinetic energy at the initial point = Ki = 1/2 mv₀².

the kinetic energy at the final point = Kf = 0

work done by air= Ea= fh =  0.262 N

Now, using the law of conservation of energy

initial energy= final energy

Ki +Ui = Kf + Uf +Ea

1/2 mv₀² + 0 = 0 + mgh + fh

1/2 mv₀² = mgh + fh

h = v₀²/ 2g (1 +f/w)

calculate m

m= w/g = 5.29 /9.8

= 0.54 kg

h = 20 ²/ (2 x9.80) x (1 0.265/5.29)

h = 19.4 m.

b) 1/2 mv² + 2fh = 1/2 mv₀²

Vg = 19 m/s

A hydrogen discharge lamp emits light with two prominent wavelengths: 656 nm (red) and 486 nm (blue). The light enters a flint-g
mezya [45]

Answer:

The angle between the red and blue light is 1.7°.

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength of red = 656 nm

Wavelength of blue = 486 nm

Angle = 37°

Suppose we need to find the angle between the red and blue light as it leaves the prism

n_{r}=1.572

n_{b}=1.587

We need to calculate the angle for red wavelength

Using Snell's law,

n_{r}\sin\theta_{i}=n_{a}\sin\theta_{r}

Put the value into the formula

1.572\sin37=1\times\sin\theta_{r}

\theta_{r}=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{1.572\sin37}{1})

\theta_{r}=71.0^{\circ}

We need to calculate the angle for blue wavelength

Using Snell's law,

n_{b}\sin\theta_{i}=n_{a}\sin\theta_{b}

Put the value into the formula

1.587\sin37=1\times\sin\theta_{b}

\theta_{b}=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{1.587\sin37}{1})

\theta_{b}=72.7^{\circ}

We need to calculate the angle between the red and blue light

Using formula of angle

\Delta \theta=\theta_{b}-\theta_{r}

Put the value into the formula

\Delta \theta=72.7-71.0

\Delta \theta=1.7^{\circ}

Hence, The angle between the red and blue light is 1.7°.

When you lift a bowling ball with a force of 61.1 N, the ball accelerates upward with an acceleration a. If you lift with a forc
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

the weight of the ball is w = 51.94 N ( mass = 5.3 kg)

Explanation:

Following Newton's second law:

net force = mass * acceleration = weight/gravity * acceleration

then denoting 1 and 2 as the first and second lift

F₁ - w= w/g *a₁

F₂ -w = w/g *a₂ = w/g * 2.07a

dividing both equations

(F₂- w)/(F₁ -w)= 2.07

(F₂- w) = 2.07 * (F₁ -w)

1.07*w = 2.07*F₁ - F₂

w = (2.07*F₁ - F₂ )/ 1.07

replacing values

w = (2.07*61.1 N - 70.9 N )/ 1.07  = 51.94 N

then the weight of the ball is w = 51.94 N ( mass = 5.3 kg)
