A ball is thrown straight downward with a speed of 0.50 meter per second from a height of 4.0 meters. What is the speed of the b
Bond [772]
Assuming that reaching a height 0 doesn’t stop the ball, and that it accelerates at 9.8 m/s^2, the ball would be traveling at 0.5 + 0.7*9.8 = 7.36 m/s downwards.

A very small tilt in Earth’s axis would likely cause ____.
olchik [2.2K]
If the Earth's axis were closer to "straight up and down" than
the present 23.5°, then . . .

-- The areas around the north and south poles where the sun
can be up or down for more than 24 hours would be smaller.

-- The "Tropic Zone", between the Tropic of Cancer and the
Tropic of Capricorn, where it's possible for the sun to be
directly overhead, would be narrower.

-- There would be less difference, everywhere, between the
lengths of daylight on the "longest day" and the "shortest day"
of the year.

-- The seasons would be less extreme everywhere.  There would
be less difference, everywhere, between the coldest part of the
Winter and the warmest part of the Summer.

What is the temperature if the peak of a blackbody spectrum is at 19.0 nm ?
nlexa [21]

Answer:

1.52 * 10⁵ K

Explanation:

When the temperature of a blackbody radiator increases, the overall radiated energy increases and the peak of the radiation curve moves to shorter wavelengths. When the maximum is evaluated from the Planck radiation formula, the product of the peak wavelength and the temperature is found to be a constant.  

By Wien's Law,

λ * T = 2.898 * 10⁻³ mK

∴ T = 2.898 * 10⁻³/λ

Given λ = 19 nm = 19 * 10⁻⁹

T = 2.898 * 10⁻³ / 19 * 10⁻⁹

  =1.52 * 10⁵ K

A ball rolls off a desk at a speed of 2 m/s and lands 0.50 seconds later.
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

(a) The ball lands <u>1 m</u> ahead of the desk's base.

(b) The height of the desk is <u>1.225 m.</u>

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity of the ball is, u_{0}=2\ m/s

Time of flight of the ball is, t=0.50\ s

(a)

Let the ball fall at a distance of x from the base of the desk and let the height of the desk be y.

The given motion of the ball is a projectile motion that can be divided into 2 mutually perpendicular directions.

Now, considering only the horizontal motion of the ball. The ball not under the influence of any force in the horizontal direction.

Therefore, the distance covered by the ball horizontally is given as:

x=v_0\times t\\x=2\times 0.50=1\ m

So, the ball lands 1 m ahead of the desk's base.

(b)

Now, consider only the vertical motion of the ball. The ball is under the influence of gravity.

So, vertical distance can be obtained  using Newton's equations of motion.

We use the following equation of motion:

y-y_0=u_{oy}t+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

Where,

y_{0}\rightarrow \textrm{initial vertical position of ball}\\u_{oy}\rightarrow \textrm{initial vertical velocity}\\g\rightarrow \textrm{acceleration due to gravity}\\y\rightarrow \textrm{final position of ball vertically}

Here, as the ball leaves the desk horizontally, initial velocity is only in the horizontal direction and doesn't have any component in the vertical direction. So, u_{oy}=0\ m/s

Plug in y_0=h,y=0,g=-9.8,u_{oy}=0,t=0.5. Solve for h.

0-h=0+\frac{1}{2}(-9.8)(0.5)^2\\-h=-4.9\times 0.25\\h=1.225\ m

Therefore, the height of the desk is 1.225 m.

Gravitational force becomes (stronger/weaker)as mass increases
Mashcka [7]
Stronger.....................becasue gravitational force is force pulling all matter (anything that has mass and occupies space) . The more the matter (which also includes mass), the more the gravitational force.
<span>So, the answer is stronger. </span>
