Answer:

h= 78.4 m

Explanation:

The ball moves with a uniformly accelerated movement in the vertical direction (y), we apply the following formulas:

vfy= v₀y+g*t Formula (1)

vfy²=v₀y²+2*g*h Formula (2)

h: hight in meters (m)    

t : time in seconds (s)

v₀y: initial speed in y  (m/s)  

vfy: final speed in y ( m/s   )

g: accelerationdue to gravity  (m/s² )

Known Data

v₀y= 0

t= 4 s

g= 9,8 m/s²

We apply the formula (1) to calculate vfy

vfy= v₀y+g*t

vfy= 0+ (9,8)*(4)

vfy= 39.2 m/s

We apply the formula (2) to calculate h

vfy²=v₀y²+2*g*h

(39.2)²=0+2*9.8*h

h = (39.2)²  /  (2*9.8)

h= 78.4 m

Varvara68 [4.7K]

We will have the following:

\begin{gathered} F=G\frac{m_1m_2}{r^2}\Rightarrow F=\frac{(6.67\ast10^{-11}m^3\ast kg^{-1}\ast s^{-2})(50kg)(50kg)}{(0.3m)^2} \\  \\ \Rightarrow F=1.852777778...\ast10^{-6}N\Rightarrow F\approx1.85\ast10^{-6}N \end{gathered}

So, the force is approximately 1.85*10^-6 N.

Andreyy89

Answer:

-450 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.

p₀ = p

0 = (1.5 kg) (1.5 m/s) + (0.005 kg) v

v = -450 m/s

The surface temperature of our sun is about 5800 K, and the peak of its intensity curve is in the middle of the visible spectrum
amm1812

Explanation:

i expected to use Stefan's law of heat exchange but the value you gave aren't conclusive.

I should say that the temperature of the star should be close to that of the sun because of the similarity in the intensity curves

777dan777 [17]

Explanation:

∆x=300 m×2

∆t=1.5 s

v=∆x/∆t → v=2×300/1.5 = 400 m/s
