The basket ball won't leak but the air would. the air will escape while it is being pressured by gravity, or when you bounce it. then the ball wouldn't work.

Because it has a small hole and air is like water, an area of higher pressure wants to move to a lower pressure area.

The state of strain at a point is plane strain with εx = ε0, εy = –2ε0, γxy = 0, where ε0 is a positive constant. What is the no

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

The normal strain along an axis oriented 45° from the positive x axis in the clockwise direction is -ε₀/2

Explanation:

Given that

$\epsilon_{x}=\epsilon_{o}\\\\\epsilon_{y}=-2\epsilon_{o}\\\\\gamma_{xy}=0\\\\\theta=-45^{o}\\\\\epsilon_{x_{1}}=?$

From equation of normal strain in x direction:

$\epsilon_{x_{1}}=\epsilon_{x}cos^{2}\theta+\epsilon_{y}sin^{2}\theta+\gamma_{xy{ sin\theta cos\theta$

Substituting the values:

$\epsilon_{x_{1}}=\epsilon_{o}cos^{2}(-45)-2\epsilon_{o}sin^{2}(-45)+0\\\\\epsilon_{x_{1}}=\frac{\epsilon_{o}}{2}-2\frac{\epsilon_{o}}{2}\\\\\epsilon_{x_{1}}=-\frac{\epsilon_{o}}{2}$

Violet light (λ = 400 nm) passing through a diffraction grating for which the slit spacing is 6.0 μm forms a pattern on a screen

sergey [27]

Answer:

3 order dark fringe

Explanation:

y = Distance from central bright fringe = 204 mm

λ = Wavelength = 400 nm

L = Distance between screen and source = 1 m

d = Slit distance = 6 μm

$tan\theta =\frac{y}{L}\\\Rightarrow tan\theta =\frac{204}{1000}=0.2012^{\circ}$

$dsin\theta=m\lambda\\\Rightarrow m=\frac{dsin\theta}{\lambda}\\\Rightarrow m=\frac{6\times 10^{-6}sin0.2012}{400\times 10^{-9}}=2.9982\approx 3$

Order of fringe is 3

So, it is a Dark order fringe

A block with mass m1 = 4.50 kg and a ball with mass m2 = 7.70 kg are connected by a light string that passes over a frictionless

Allisa [31]

$1.6a = \frac{g(m_2 + m_3 - \mu km_1)}{m_1 + m_2 + m_3} \\ \\ 1.6a(m_1 + m_2 + m_3) = g(m_2 + m_3 - \mu km_1) \\ \\ (1.6a + \mu kg)m_1 + (1.6a - g)m_2 = (g - 1.6a)m_3 \\ \\ m_3 = \frac{1.6a +\mu kg}{g - 1.6a} m_1 - m_2 \\ \\ m_3 = 22.57 kg$
