Answer:

option C

Explanation:

When the baseball is hit high and far it has some horizontal velocity at the highest point so option an i.e. velocity at the highest point is eliminated.

the baseball act as a projectile at the highest point so, there is always downward acceleration acting on the body. so, option e and d is eliminated.

At the highest point, the vertical velocity is zero and neglecting the air resistance we can say that the velocity of the body is slowest.

Hence, the correct answer is option C

The answer is B. Vas deferens.

The Vas deferens is a tube that carries the sperm from your testes to the urethra and out the body. A vasectomy is a form of birth control where the pathway of sperm is blocked through cutting or tying off the vas deferens. The word Vasectomy comes from the term Vas<span> deferens.</span>

An electron is projected with an initial speed of 5 3.2 10 / ⋅ m s directly toward a proton that is fixed in place. If the elect

Dvinal [7]

Answer:

The distance is $d =1.66*10^{-9}m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The initial speed of the electron is $v_i = 3.2 *10^5 m/s$

The mass of electron is $m = 9.11*10^{-31}kg$

Let $d$ be the distance between the electron and the proton when the speed of the electron instantaneously equal to twice the initial value

Let $KE_i$ be the initial kinetic energy of the electron \

Let $KE_d$ be the kinetic energy of the electron at the distance $d$ from the proton

Considering that energy is conserved,

The energy at the initial position of the electron = The energy at the final position of the electron

i.e

$KE_i +U_1 = KE_d + U_2$

$U_1 \ and \ U_2$ are the potential energy at the initial position of the electron and at distance d of the electron to the proton

Here $U_1 = 0$

So the equation becomes

$\frac{1}{2} mv_i^2 = \frac{1}{2} mv_d^2 + \frac{kq_1 q_2}{d}$

Here $q_1 \ and \ q_2$ are the charge on the electron and the proton and their are the same since a charge on an electron is equal to charge on a proton

$k$ is electrostatic constant with value $8.99*10^9 N \cdot m^2 /C^2$

i.e $q = 1.602 *10^{-19}C$

$v_d$ is the velocity at distance d from the proton = 2 $v_i$

So the equation becomes

$\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2 = \frac{1}{2} m (2v_i)^2 -\frac{k(q)^2}{d}$

$\frac{1}{2} mv_i^2 = 4 [\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2 ]- \frac{k(q)^2}{d}$

$3[\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2 ] = \frac{k(q)^2}{d}$

Making d the subject of the formula

$d = \frac{2k(q)^2}{3mv_i^2}$

$= \frac{2* 8.99*10^9 *(1.602*10^{-19}^2)}{3 * 9.11*10^{-31} *(3.2*10^5)^2}$

$=1.66*10^{-9}m$

What are visible colors of light has the longest wavelength?

sasho [114]

Answer:

Red has the longest wavelength among all the visible colors of light.

Explanation:

Visible light is the only electromagnetic radiations which can be seen by human eye. When white visible light passes through a prism it breaks down into 7 distinctive colors of rainbow.

These are red, orange, yellow, green blue, indigo and violet.

Red has the longest wavelength of around 700 nano meters with violet has the shortest wavelength of 380 nano meters.

Rock X is released from rest at the top of a cliff that is on Earth. A short time later, Rock Y is released from rest from the s

MArishka [77]

Answer:

<h2>D) S increases because at all times Rock X falls with a greater speed than Rock Y</h2>

Explanation:

As we know that Stone X is dropped first and then after some time stone Y is dropped

Now we have

$v_x = gt_1$

similarly for Y

$v_y = g(t_1 - \Delta t)$

now the relative acceleration of two stones while they are in air is ZERO

also we know from above equations

$v_x > v_y$

so the separation between two stones will keep on increasing as the speed of X is more than the speed of Y
