A launched hopper reach to 1.20 m maximum height. How much is it’s launch velocity?

garri49 [273]

The launch velocity is 4.8 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by applying the law of conservation of energy. In fact, the mechanical energy of the hopper (equal to the sum of the potential energy + the kinetic energy) is conserved. So we can write:

$U_i +K_i = U_f + K_f$

where:

$U_i$ is the initial potential energy, at the bottom

$K_i$ is the initial kinetic energy, at the bottom

$U_f$ is the final potential energy, at the top

$K_f$ is the final kinetic energy, at the top

We can rewrite the equation as:

$mgh_i + \frac{1}{2}mu^2 = mgh_f + \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where:

m is the mass of the hopper

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

$h_i = 0$ is the initial height

u is the launch speed of the hopper

$h_f = 1.20 m$ is the maximum altitude reached by the hopper

v = 0 is the final speed (which is zero when the hopper reaches the maximum height)

Solving the equation for u, we find the launch speed of the hopper:

$u=\sqrt{2gh_g}=\sqrt{2(9.8)(1.20)}=4.8 m/s$

Sound waves that enter the external acoustic meatus eventually encounter the __________, which then vibrates at the same frequen

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

tympanic membrane (eardrum)

Explanation:

The sound waves spread through the air and reach the outer ear, into which they penetrate through the ear canal. In doing so, they stimulate the eardrum, which closes the inner end of the duct. By vibrating this membrane, the vibration of a chain of ossicles located in the middle ear is induced. These ossicles transmit their vibration to the oval window, which is a membranous structure that communicates the middle ear with the cochlea of the inner ear. When the oval membrane moves, it moves the liquid (perilymph) that fills one of the three cavities of the cochlea generating waves in it. These waves mechanically stimulate the sensory cells (hair cells) located in the organ of Corti, within the cochlea in the central cavity, the middle ramp. This cavity is filled with a liquid rich in K +, endolymph. The cells embedded in the endolymph, change their permeability to K + due to the movement of the cilia and respond by releasing a neurotransmitter that excites the nerve terminals, which initiate the auditory sensory pathway.

Newtons law of garvitation is known as universal law. Why

xeze [42]

Answer:

It is called so because it is applicable on all bodies having mass, and the bodies will be governed by the same law, that is newton's law of gravitation. Thus, as it is applicable universally, it is called as universal law.
