. The free throw line in basketball is 4.57 m (15 ft) from the basket, which is 3.05 m (10 ft) above the floor. A player standin

g on the free throw line throws the ball with an initial speed of 8.15 m/s, releasing it at a height of 2.44 m (8 ft) above the floor. At what angle above the horizontal must the ball be thrown to exactly hit the basket? Note that most players will use a large initial angle rather than a flat shot because it allows for a larger margin of error. Explicitly show how you follow the steps involved in solving projectile motion problems.

Answer:

\theta = 67.22 degree

Explanation:

Let say the ball is projected at an angle with horizontal

So here two components of the velocity of the ball is given as

v_x = 8.15 cos\theta

v_y = 8.15 sin\theta

now the displacement in x direction is given as

x = v_x t

4.57 = (8.15 cos\theta)t

in y direction it is given as

y = y_o + v_y t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

3.05 = 2.44 + (8.15 sin\theta) t - 4.9 t^2

now from above two equations

0.61 = 4.57 tan\theta - 4.9(\frac{4.57}{8.15 cos\theta})^2

0.61 = 4.57 tan\theta - 1.54(1 + tan^2\theta)

1.54 tan^2\theta - 4.57 tan\theta + 2.15 = 0

\theta = 67.22 degree

Does the galvanometer deflect to the left or the right when:________
igomit [66]

Complete question is;

Does the galvanometer deflect to the left or the right when

a) the magnet is being pushed in

b) the magnet is being pulled out

c) the magnet is being held steady?

Answer:

Option A - when the magnet is being pulled out

Explanation:

Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction states that: “Voltage is induced in a circuit whenever relative motion exists between the conductor and the magnetic field, and the magnitude of the voltage will be proportional to the rate of change of the flux”.

Now, applying it to the question, When the magnet is moved towards the sensitive center of the galvanometer and then pulled out, the needle of the galvanometer will deflect away from its center position in one direction only but when it is held steady, the needle of the galvanometer will return back to zero.

How does the magnitude of the electrical force between a pair of charged particles change when they are brought to half their or
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

5. Quadruple

Explanation:

The electrostatic force between two charged particles is given by:

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q1, q2 are the two charges

r is the separation between the charges

If the distance between the charges is reduced to half,

r' = \frac{r}{2}

So the new force will be

F'=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{(r/2)^2}=4(k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2})=4F

So, the force will quadruple.
