One way to measure g on another planet or moon by remote sensing is to measure how long it takes an object to fall a given dista

nce. A lander vehicle on a distant planet records the fact that it takes 3.17 s for a ball to fall freely 11.26 m, starting from rest.
a. What is the acceleration due to gravity on that planet?
b. How fast is the ball moving just as it lands in m/s?

Answer:

a)a=2.24m/s^{2}

b)v(t)=7.1m/s

Explanation:

We use the kinematics equations:

v(t)=v_{o}+g*t=g*t   starting from rest

y(t)=v_{o}t+1/2*a*t^{2}=1/2*a*t^{2

a=2*y/t^{2}=2*11.26/3.17^{2}=2.24m/s^{2}

We find now the speed

v(t)=a*t=2.24*3.17=7.1m/s

mr_godi [17]

Answer:

λ = 0.4 x 10⁻⁶ m = 400 nm

Explanation:

The relationship between frequency, wavelength and speed of an electromagnetic wave is given as follows:

c = f\lambda

where,

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

f = frequency of the light wave = 7.5 x 10¹⁴ Hz

λ = wavelength of the light = ?

Therefore,

3\ x\ 10^8\ m/s = (7.5\ x\ 10^{14}\ Hz)\lambda\\\\\lambda = \frac{3\ x\ 10^8\ m/s}{7.5\ x\ 10^{14}\ Hz}

<u>λ = 0.4 x 10⁻⁶ m = 400 nm</u>

Can someone with an IQ score of 120 be gifted? Based on psychological thought, explain why or why not and give an example. ILL M
Pani-rosa [81]
Hello!

Yes, someone with an IQ score of 120 can be gifted. 

An IQ score of 120 means that the individual is moderately gifted. Although this IQ doesn't qualify for gifted education programs, research shows that people with IQs of about 145-180 don't perform significantly better than people with 120s IQ in terms of success.

As an example, professor Dean Simonton from the University of California found that an optimum leader should have an IQ in the 120-125 range, so having an IQ of 120 would mean that the individual is gifted for leadership.

Have a nice day!

A small ball with mass 2.50 kg is mounted on one end of a rod 0.750 m long and of negligible mass. The system rotates in a horiz
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

1.40625 kg-m^2

Explanation:

Supposing we have to calculate rotational moment of inertia

Given:

Mass of the ball m= 2.50 kg

Length of the rod, L= 0.78 m

The system rotates in a horizontal circle about the other end of the rod

The constant angular velocity of the system, ω= 5010 rev/min

The rotational inertia of system is equal to rotational inertia of the the ball about other end of the rod because the rod is mass-less

I_{sys}= mL^2= 2.50\times 0.75^2

=1.40625 kg-m^2

m= mass of the ball and L= length of the ball
