A rock is dropped off a cliff and falls the first half of the distance to the ground in t1 seconds. If it falls the second half

of the distance in t2 seconds, what is the value of t2/t1? (Ignore air resistance.)

Answer:

t2/t1 = \sqrt{2} - 1

Explanation:

The expression for the second law of motion is given below:

h = ut + 0.5at^2

<u>For first half distance</u>

Object is initially at rest, so its initial speed u = 0

Object falls at half the distance, so h = h/2 where t = t1

Hence, we have

h/2 = at1^2/2 - equation 1

<u>For second half distance: </u>

Similarly,

h = a(t1 + t2)^2/2 - equation 2 where t = t1 + t2 and u= 0

Using equation 2 by equation 1

we obtain 2 = (t1 + t2)^2/t1^2

Hence t2/t1 + 1 = \sqrt{2}

Hence t2/t1 = \sqrt{2} - 1

Two identical closely spaced circular disks form a parallel-plate capacitor. Transferring 2.1×109 electrons from one disk to the
Bad White [126]

Answer:

d = 0.018 m

Explanation:

Charge on the plates of the capacitor due to transfer of electrons is given as

Q = Ne

here we know that

N = 2.1 \times 10^9

so we have

Q = (2.1 \times 10^9)(1.6 \times 10^{-19})

Q = 3.36 \times 10^{-10} C

now we have electric field between the plates is given as

E = \frac{Q}{A\epsilon_0}

here we have

1.5 \times 10^5 = \frac{3.36 \times 10^{-10}}{A(8.85 \times 10^{-12})}

A = 2.53 \times 10^{-4} m^2

now we have

A = \frac{\pi d^2}{4}

2.53 \times 10^{-4} = \frac{\pi d^2}{4}

d = 0.018 m

an force of 5N is applied to a 10 kg object over a time of 3s. Determine the impulse applied to the object ​
ddd [48]

Answer:

15Ns

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the object  = 10kg

Force impact  = 5N

Time of action  = 3s

Unknown:

Impulse applied on the object  = ?

Solution:

Impulse is the force that acts on object within a period of time.

 Mathematically;

             Impulse  = Force x time

Now insert the parameters and solve;

           Impulse  = 5 x 3 = 15Ns
