James and John dive from an overhang into the lake below. James simply drops straight down from the edge. John takes a running s

tart and jumps with an initial horizontal velocity of 25 m/s. Compare the time it takes each to reach the lake below if there is no air resistance.

Answer:

Both of them reach the lake at the same time.

Explanation:

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5at²

Vertical motion of James : -

          Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

         Acceleration, a = g

         Displacement, s = h

    Substituting,

                  s = ut + 0.5 at²

                 h = 0 x t + 0.5 x g x t²

                 t_{James}=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}

Vertical motion of John : -

          Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

         Acceleration, a = g

         Displacement, s = h

    Substituting,

                  s = ut + 0.5 at²

                 h = 0 x t + 0.5 x g x t²

                 t_{John}=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}

So both times are same.

Both of them reach the lake at the same time.

Express the vector R<br> B<br> in terms of A, B, C, and Ď, the edges of a<br> parallelogram.
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

R=0.5B+0.5C+2A+D

Explanation:

By the triangular law of vector addition

vector R= vector B- vector D

As A,B,C,D are edges of the parallelogram,

A is parallel to D but opposite in direction.

Therefore

A = (-D);A//D;

2A=-2D

B is parallel to C and in same direction.

B//C\\B=C\\

0.5B=0.5C\\

R= B-D;\\R= 0.5B+0.5B-D;\\R=0.5B+0.5C-D;\\R=0.5B+0.5C-2D+D;\\R=0.5B+0.5C+2A+D;

A particle of mass 10 g and charge 72 μC moves through a uniform magnetic field, in a region where the free-fall acceleration is
sineoko [7]

Answer:

-0.07163\hat k\ T or 0.07163 T into the page

Explanation:

m = Mass of particle = 10 g

a = Acceleration due to gravity = -9.8j m/s²

v = Velocity of particle = 19i km/s

q = Charge of particle = 72 μC

B = Magnetic field

Here the magnetic and gravitational forces on the particle are applied in the opposite direction so,

F_b=F_g

F_b=qvBsin\theta\\\Rightarrow F_b=qvBsin90\\\Rightarrow F_b=72\times 10^{-6}\times 19000B

F_g=ma\\\Rightarrow F_g=0.01\times -9.8

72\times 10^{-6}\times 19000B=0.01\times -9.8\\\Rightarrow B=\frac{0.01\times -9.8}{72\times 10^{-6}\times 19000}\\\Rightarrow B=-0.07163\hat k\ T

The magnetic field is 0.07163 T into the page

A balloon filled with helium occupies 20.0 l at 1.50 atm and 25.0◦
bija089 [108]
At stp (standard temperature and pressure), the temperature is T=0 C=273 K and the pressure is p=1.00 atm. So we can use the ideal gas law to find the number of moles of helium:
pV=nRT
where p is the pressure (1.00 atm), V the volume (20.0 L), n the number of moles, T the temperature (273 K) and R=0.082 atm L K^{-1} mol^{-1} the gas constant. Using the numbers and re-arranging the formula, we can calculate n:
n= \frac{pV}{RT}= \frac{(1.00atm)(20.0L)}{(0.082 LatmK^{-1}mol^{-1})(273 K)}=0.89 mol
