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.

The area vector of a square loop of 5 turns of a conductor each with side length of 0.2 m carrying a current of 2 A is antiparal
lord [1]

Answer:

the magnitude and the direction of the total magnetic field is 0.4 Am²  antiparallel to the area vector

Explanation:

Given that:

The area vector of a square loop  has 5 numbers of turns i.e n = 5

each with side length = 0.2 m

Current I = 2 A

uniform magnetic field =  50.0 T

Now; the magnitude of the total magnetic field B is calculated as :

B = IA

where;

I = current

A = area ( n × l²)  

B = I ( n × l²)

B = 2 ×  5 ×  0.2²

B = 0.4 Am²

The direction of the magnetic moment is antiparallel to the area vector;

Hence ; the magnitude and the direction of the total magnetic field is 0.4 Am²  antiparallel to the area vector

What portion of the electromagnetic spectrum is most absorbed by the chlorophyll pigments in the thylakoid membranes?
nadya68 [22]

Answer: The visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum, <u>specifically blue and red wavelength</u>

Explanation:

Let's begin by explaining that pigments generally absorb more light than they reflect (they absorb certain wavelengths and reflect others). Therefore, the color that a given object seems to have depends on which parts of the visible electromagnetic spectrum are reflected and which parts are absorbed.

In this sense, in the thylakoid membranes there are two types of <u>chlorophyll pigments</u>:

-clorophyll b that absorbs the blue light of the electromagnetic spectrum

-clorophyll a that bsorbs the red light of the electromagnetic spectrum

That is why we generally see plants in green color and not in other colors.

How do I find the release angle of an object​
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

This is what I know, The angle of releases changes the relationship between the horizontal and vertical components of projectile. The idea angle of release  is 45 degrees, assuming there is no air resistance and take off and landing points are the same height.
