Answer:

option (a) 0.61 s

Explanation:

Given;

Time taken by the ball to reach the ground  = 0.50 s

Let us first calculate the distance through which the ball falls on the ground

from the Newton's equation of motion, we have

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where,  

s is the distance

a is the acceleration

t is the time

here it is the case of free fall

thus, a = g = acceleration due to gravity

u =  initial speed of the ball = 0

on substituting the values, we get

s=0\times 0.50+\frac{1}{2}\times9.8\times0.50^2

or

s = 1.225 m

Now,

when the elevator is moving up with speed of 1.0 m/s

the initial speed of the ball = -1.0 m/s   (as the elevator is moving in upward direction)

thus , we have

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

or

1.225=-1.0\times\ t+\frac{1}{2}\times9.8t^2

or

4.9t^2 - t  - 1.225 = 0

or

t = 0.612 s

hence, the correct answer is option (a) 0.61 s

An electron is initially at rest in a uniform electric field having a strength of 1.85 × 106 V/m. It is then released and accele
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

W = 462.5 keV

Explanation:

As we know that when electron moved in electric field then work done by electric field must be equal to the change in kinetic energy of the electron

So here we have to find the work done by electric field on moving electron

So we have

F = qE

F = (1.6 \times 10^{-19})(1.85 \times 10^6)

F = 2.96 \times 10^{-13} N

now the distance moved by the electron is given as

d = 0.25 m

so we have

W = F.d

W = (1.6 \times 10^{-19})(1.85 \times 10^6)(0.25)

W = 7.4 \times 10^{-14} J

now we have to convert it into keV units

so we have

1 keV = 1.6 \times 10^{-16} J

W = 462.5 keV

A pipe of length 10.0 m increases in length by 1.5 cm when its temperature is increased by 90°F. What is its coefficient of line
azamat

The coefficient of linear expansion, given that the length of the pipe increased by 1.5 cm is 1.67×10¯⁵ /°F

<h3>How to determine the coefficient of linear expansion</h3>

From the question given above, the following data were obtained

  • Original diameter (L₁) = 10 m
  • Change in length (∆L) = 1.5 cm = 1.5 / 100 = 0.015 m
  • Change in temperature (∆T) = 90 °F
  • Coefficient of linear expansion (α) =?

The coefficient of linear expansion can be obtained as illustrated below:

α = ∆L / L₁∆T

α = 0.015 / (10 × 90)

α = 0.015 / 900

α = 1.67×10¯⁵ /°F

Thus, we can conclude that the coefficient of linear expansion is 1.67×10¯⁵ /°F

If the kinetic energy of an electron is 4.1e-18 j, what is the speed of the electron? (you can use the approximate (nonrelativis
arlik [135]
The kinetic energy of the electron is
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
where m=9.1 \cdot 10^{-31} kg is the mass of the electron and v its speed. Since we know the value of the kinetic energy, K=4.1 \cdot 10^{-18} J, we can find the value of the speed v:
v= \sqrt{ \frac{2K}{m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{2\cdot 4.1 \cdot 10^{-18}J}{9.1 \cdot 10^{-31}kg} }  = 3\cdot 10^6 m/s
