The leaning tower of Pisa is about 56 meters tall. A ball released from the top takes 3.4 seconds to reach the ground. The final

velocity of the ball before it hits the ground is 33 meters/second. Assuming that the ball experienced a constant acceleration throughout this descent, calculate the magnitude of the acceleration.

At sunset, red light travels horizontally through the doorway in the western wall of your beach cabin, and you observe the light
Nady [450]

Answer:

9.8\cdot 10^{-6}m

Explanation:

For light passing through a single slit, the position of the nth-minimum from the central bright fringe in the diffraction pattern is given by

y=\frac{n \lambda D}{d}

where

\lambda is the wavelength

D is the distance of the screen from the slit

d is the width of the slit

In this problem, we have

\lambda=700 nm = 7.00\cdot 10^{-7}m is the wavelength of the red light

D = 14 m is the distance of the screen from the doorway

d = 1.0 m is the width of the doorway

Substituting n=1 into the equation, we find the distance between the central bright fringe and the first-order dark fringe (the first minimum):

y=\frac{(1)(7.00\cdot 10^{-7} m)(14 m)}{1.0 m}=9.8\cdot 10^{-6}m

How much mass should be attached to a vertical ideal spring having a spring constant (force constant) of 39.5 n/m so that it wil
mrs_skeptik [129]
The frequency of a simple harmonic oscillator such as a spring-mass system is given by
f= \frac{1}{2 \pi}   \sqrt{ \frac{k}{m} }
where 
k is the spring constant
m is the mass attached to the spring.

Re-arranging the formula, we get:
m= \frac{k}{4 \pi^2 f^2}
and since we know the constant of the spring:
k=39.5 N/m
and the frequency of oscillation:
f=1.00 Hz
we can find the value of the mass attached to it:
m= \frac{39.5 Hz}{4 \pi^2 (1.00 Hz)^2} = 1.00 kg

Determine qual é a carga elétrica de um corpo que possui 1 milhão de partículas?
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

This can be translated to:

"find the electrical charge of a body that has 1 million of particles".

First, it will depend on the charge of the particles.

If all the particles have 1 electron more than protons, we will have that the charge of each particle is q = -e = -1.6*10^-19 C

Then the total charge of the body will be:

Q = 1,000,000*-1.6*10^-19 C = -1.6*10^-13 C

If we have the inverse case, where we in each particle we have one more proton than the number of electrons, the total charge will be the opposite of the one of before (because the charge of a proton is equal in magnitude but different in sign than the charge of an electron)

Q = 1.6*10^-13 C

But commonly, we will have a spectrum with the particles, where some of them have a positive charge and some of them will have a negative charge, so we will have a probability of charge that is peaked at Q = 0, this means that, in average, the charge of the particles is canceled by the interaction between them.

An object is hanging by a string from the ceiling of an elevator. The elevator is moving upward with a constant speed. What is t
xeze [42]

Answer:

The magnitude of the tension in he string is equal to the magnitude of the weight of the object.

Explanation:

According to the Newton's 1st law, An object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

In here, the elevator is moving with a constant speed. So the object must have the equal constant speed. Which means, it has a uniform motion. According to Newton's 1st law, the total unbalanced force on the object must be zero . As we know, there are only two forces are on the object and they are,

The tension in string(T)   ,   The weight of the object(W) .

                                  ∴ F    =   0

                                 T  -  W  =   0

So to balanced those forces, the magnitude of the tension in the string must be equal to the magnitude of the weight of  the object.

A boat, whose speed in still water is 2.50 m/s, must cross a 285-m wide river and arrive at a point 118m upstream from where it
son4ous [18]

The figure shows the arrangement of system

The velocity of boat can be resolved in to two

     Horizontal component  = vcos θ = 2.50 cos 45 = 1.768 m/s

     Vertical component  = vsin θ = 2.50 sin 45 = 1.768 m/s

   Due to horizontal component the boat arrive arrives upstream,

           Total horizontal velocity =  1.768 - Vr, where Vr is the velocity of river.

  Total time taken to cross the river = width of river/ Vertical component of velocity

                         t = 285/1.768 = 161.20 seconds

So 118 meter is traveled at a velocity of 1.768-Vr in 161.20 seconds

That is           118 = (1.768-Vr)*161.20

                     1.768 - Vr =0.732

                         Vr = 1.036 m/s

So velocity of river flow =1.036 m/s
