A brick is dropped from a big scaffold. What is its velocity after 4.0s?

Physics
1 answer:
Flura [38]3 years ago
3 0

The velocity of the brick is 39.2 m/s downward

Explanation:

The motion of the brick is a free fall motion, since the object is affected only by the force of gravity. Therefore, it has a uniformly accelerated motion towards the ground, with constant acceleration of g=9.8 m/s^2.

So, we can find its velocity using the suvat equation:

v=u+at

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

For the brick in this problem (taking downward as positive direction)

u = 0 (it is dropped from rest)

a=g=9.8 m/s^2

Therefore, its velocity after t = 4.0 s is:

v=0+(9.8)(4.0)=39.2 m/s

Downward, because the sign is positive.

a 0.25 kg arrow is moving at 5 m/s and hits a 0.10 kg apple. The apple sticks to the arrow, and both move to the right together.
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

The arrow-apple combo will move with a velocity 3.6 m/s to the right.

Explanation:

Use the law of conservation of momentum to solve this problem. In this case the law can be written as follows:

m_{arrow}v_{arrow}+m_{apple}\cdot 0= (m_{arrow}+m_{apple})v_{both}

from which the desired velocity can be isolated:

\frac{m_{arrow}v_{arrow}}{m_{arrow}+m_{apple}}= v_{both}\\v_{both} = \frac{0.25kg\cdot 5\frac{m}{s}}{0.35kg}=3.6\frac{m}{s}

The arrow-apple combo will move with a velocity 3.6 m/s to the right.

The bandgap of InP semiconductor laser is 1.0 eV. The effective mass of the valence band is ½ of the effective mass of the condu
klemol [59]

Answer: the wavelength of this transition is 1.2039 um

Explanation:

Given that;

the energy level between the transitioning energy gap Eg = 1.0 + 0.03 = 1.03 eV

we know that λ = 1.24 / Eg

so we substitute our Eg into the above equation

λ = 1.24 / 1.03

λ = 1.2039 um

therefore the wavelength of this transition is 1.2039 um

What is diffraction?
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

D) the bending of a wave as it moves around an obstacle or passes through a narrow opening

Explanation:

Even though light travels in straight line, it will bend around objects if their size is comparative to its wavelength. This phenomenon is called diffraction.

Light will also bend if the light travels from one medium to another medium at an angle, but that is called refraction.

Diffraction occurs in one medium. Refraction occurs when light travels from one medium to another.
