While running these tests, crall notices a similarity in the velocity measured at the ground independent of whether the tennis b

all is thrown upward or downward. she decides to see if her hypothesis that the final speed is independent of the sign of the initial velocity is correct. crall and whipple decide to run the experiment several times using different initial speeds of the elevator each time comparing the final velocity of the tennis ball when the elevator is traveling upward vs. downward at the same speed?

At the ground the ball will always have velocity along the direction of gravity. If upward motion is taken positive it will always have negative velocity at the ground because, if the ball was given an initial upward velocity then gravity will decelerate it and bring it down with a negative final velocity. If the ball is given an initial downward velocity then the ball will be further accelerated by gravity in the downward direction only, again maintaining negative direction. The magnitude however in both cases will be different. the final velocity at the ground will have higher magnitude in case of elevator moving downwards.

Answer:

The velocities will be different

Explanation:

Thinking process:

The downward motion is more or less the same. This is because the gravitational pull on the object. In a vacuum, the terminal speed of an object is the same throughout.

Throwing the ball downward simply converts the potential energy to kinetic energy. However, throwing the ball up needs more energy to overcome the gravitational pull on the ball. Hence the velocity of the ball will be different.

Neon atoms at 245 K pass through a fan that gives each mole of neon gas an additional kinetic energy of 16.0 J. Part A What is t
hjlf

Answer:

246.28 K

Explanation:

The total energy of one mole of gas molecules can be calculated by the formula given below

E = \frac{3}{2}\times R\times T

Where R is gas constant and T is absolute temperature.

Put the value of R as 8.314 and temperature as 245 , we get

E = \frac{3}{2}\times 8.314\times 245

= 3055.4 J

Add 16 j to it

Total energy of gas molecules = 3055.4 + 16 = 3071.4 J.

If T be the temperature after addition of energy then

\frac{3}{2}\times 8.314\times T = 3071.4

T =\frac{2\times 3071.4}{3\times 8.314}

T = 246.28 K
