Answer:

73.5 m/s

Explanation:

The position of the first ball is:

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

y = h + (0)(18) + ½ (-9.8)(18)²

y = h − 1587.6

The position of the second ball is:

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

y = h + (-v) (18−6) + ½ (-9.8)(18−6)²

y = h − 12v − 705.6

Setting the positions equal:

h − 1587.6 = h − 12v − 705.6

-1587.6 = -12v − 705.6

1587.6 = 12v + 705.6

882 = 12v

v = 73.5

The second ball is thrown downwards with a speed of 73.5 m/s

A particle with charge 3.20×10−19 c is placed on the x axis in a region where the electric potential due to other charges increa
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

-5 V

Explanation:

The charged particle (which is positively charged) moves from point A to B, and its kinetic energy increases: it means that the particle is following the direction of the field, so its potential energy is decreasing (because it's been converted into potential energy), therefore it is moving from a point at higher potential (A) to a point at lower potential (B). This means that the value

vb−va

is negative.

We can calculate the potential difference between the two points by using the law of conservation of energy:

\Delta K+ \Delta U=0\\\Delta K + q\Delta V=0

where:

\Delta K=+1.6\cdot 10^{-18} J is the change in kinetic energy of the particle

q=3.2\cdot 10^{-19} C is the charge of the particle

\Delta V =V_b-V_a is the potential difference

Re-arranging the equation, we can find the value of the potential difference:

\Delta V=V_b-V_a = -\frac{\Delta K}{q}=-\frac{1.6\cdot 10^{-18} J}{3.2\cdot 10^{-19} C}=-5 V

What is the process called in which water vapor and carbon dioxide retain heat?
saw5 [17]

The process in which water vapour and carbon dioxide traps heat is called the “greenhouse effect”.

 

The greenhouse effect is a natural phenomenon which occurs every day. To illustrate an example of this natural phenomenon, d<span>uring the day the Sun shines through the atmosphere. Earth's surface warms up because of the sunlight. Meanwhile at night in the absence of the sunlight, Earth's surface cools back and releasing the heat back into the air. However some of the heat is retained by the greenhouse gases (such as carbon dioxide and water vapour) in the atmosphere. This process what keeps our planet Earth warm and cozy at an average temperature of 16°C.</span>
