Both objects will hit the ground at the same time

Answer:

they both will hit the surface of moon at same time

Explanation:

When a bowling ball and potato chips are dropped at the same time on surface of moon

then during the motion above the surface of moon they both will have only force of gravity due to moon

so we have

F = mg_{moon}

now the we can say that the acceleration of object on this surface is given as

a = \frac{F}{m}

a = \frac{mg_{moon}}{m}

a = g_{moon}

since this acceleration on both objects is independent of their mass

so we can say that they both will hit the surface of moon at same time

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

5 m/s

Explanation:

Here we can see there is no external force acted on a two masses when we consider the motion. If there is no external forces then momentum is conserved.

Initial momentum = Final momentum

0.5 × 10  = 1 × V

V = 5 m/s

A 120-V rms voltage at 1000 Hz is applied to an inductor, a 2.00-μF capacitor and a 100-Ω resistor, all in series. If the rms va
natima [27]

Answer:

The inductance of the inductor is 35.8 mH

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage = 120-V

Frequency = 1000 Hz

Capacitor C= 2.00\mu F

Current = 0.680 A

We need to calculate the inductance of the inductor

Using formula of current

I = \dfrac{V}{Z}

Z=\sqrt{R^2+(L\omega-\dfrac{1}{C\omega})^2}

Put the value of Z into the formula

I=\dfrac{V}{\sqrt{R^2+(L\omega-\dfrac{1}{C\omega})^2}}

Put the value into the formula

0.680=\dfrac{120}{\sqrt{(100)^2+(L\times2\pi\times1000-\dfrac{1}{2\times10^{-6}\times2\pi\times1000})^2}}

L=35.8\ mH

Hence, The inductance of the inductor is 35.8 mH

Jane, looking for tarzan, is running at top speed (6.8 m/s) and grabs a vine hanging vertically from a tall tree in the jungle.
erica [24]
Jane's mechanical energy at any time is
E=U+K
where U=mgh is the potential energy, while K= \frac{1}{2} mv^2 is the kinetic energy.

Initially, Jane is on the ground, so the altitude is h=0 and the potential energy is zero: U=0. She's running with speed v, so she has kinetic energy only:
E=K= \frac{1}{2} mv^2
Then she grabs the vine, and when she reaches the maximum height h, her speed is zero: v=0, and so the kinetic energy becomes zero: K=0. So now her mechanical energy is just potential energy:
E=U=mgh

But E must be conserved, so the initial kinetic energy must be equal to the final potential energy:
\frac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh
from which we can find h, the maximum height Jane can reach:
h= \frac{v^2}{2g}= \frac{(6.8 m/s)^2}{2\cdot 9.81 m/s^2}=2.36 m
