Barack is playing basketball in his back yard. He takes a shot 7.0 m from the basket (measured along the ground), shooting at an

Answer:

The time of flight of the ball is 1.06 seconds.

Explanation:

Given $\Delta x=7\ m$

$\theta=45 \°$

Also, $\Delta y=(3.5-2)=1.5\ m$

$a_x=0\ and\ a_y=-9.81\ m/s^2$

Let us say the velocity in the x-direction is $v_x$ and in the y-direction is $v_y$ . And acceleration in the x-direction is $a_x$ and in the y-direction is $a_y$ .

Also, $\Delta x\ and\ \Delta y$ is distance covered in x and y direction respectively. And $t$ is the time taken by the ball to hit the backboard.

We can write $v_x=v_0cos(45)\ and\ v_y=v_0sin(45)$ . Where $v_0$ is velocity of ball.

Now,

$\Delta x=v_x\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times a_x\times t^2\\ \Delta x=v_x\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times 0\times t^2\\\Delta x=v_xt$

$\Delta x=v_0cos(45)\times t\\7=v_0cos(45)\times t\\\\t=\frac{7}{v_0cos(45)}$

Also,

$\Delta y=v_y\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times a_y\times t^2\\ 1.5=v_0sin(45)\times \frac{7}{v_0cos(45)}+\frac{1}{2}\times (-9.81)\times(\frac{7}{v_0cos(45)} )^2\\\\1.5=7-\frac{481}{(v_0)^2}\\ \\\frac{481}{(v_0)^2}=5.5\\\\(v_0)^2=\frac{481}{5.5}\\ \\(v_0)^2=87.45\\\\v_0=\sqrt{87.45}=9.35\ m/s$ .

Plugging this value in

$t=\frac{7}{v_0cos(45)}\\ \\t=\frac{7}{9.35\times 0.707}\\ \\t=\frac{7}{6.611}$

$t=1.06\ seconds$

So, the time of flight of the ball is 1.06 seconds.

Explain why nuclear fission and nuclear fusion release large amounts of energy

levacccp [35]

Answer:

Because of the formula $E=mc^2$

Explanation:

In this problem we are describing two different processes:

Nuclear fission occurs when a heavy, unstable nucleus breaks apart into two or more lighter nuclei

Nuclear fusion occurs when two (or more) light nuclei fuse together producing a heavier nucleus

In both cases, the total mass of the final products is smaller than the total mass of the initial nuclei.

According to Einsten's formula, this mass difference has been converted into energy, as follows:

$E=\Delta mc^2$

where:

E is the energy released in the reaction

$\Delta m$ is the mass defect, the difference between the final total mass and the initial total mass

$c=3.0 \cdot 10^8 m/s$ is the speed of light

From the formula, we see that the factor $c^2$ is a very large number, therefore even if the mass defect $\Delta m$ is very small, nuclear fusion and nuclear fission release huge amounts of energy.

When atoms are split, they release energy. this concept applies to

balu736 [363]

This applies to nuclear reactions, specifically nuclear fission.

This huge release of energy has been used in atomic bombs and in the nuclear reactors that generate electricity.
