Answer:

5.33*10^-3 seconds

Explanation:

c = d/t

c = speed of light constant (3.0*10^5 km/s)

d = distance (1600 km)

t = ?

3.0*10^5 = 1600/t

t = 1600/3.0*10^5

t = 5.33*10^-3 seconds

I hope this helped! :)

What is diffrence between damping and undamping?

Answer:

Oscillation whose amplitude reduce with time are called damped oscillation. This happen because of the friction. In oscillation if its amplitude doesn't change with time then they are called Undamped oscillation

An athlete executing a long jump leaves the ground at a 28.0º angle and travels 7.80 m. (A) What was the takeoff speed?

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

9.6 m/s

Explanation:

Angle of projection, θ = 28°

Horizontal distance, R = 7.8 m

Let the velocity of projection is given by u.

The formula used to find the velocity of projection is given by

$R=\frac{u^{2}Sin2\theta }{g}$

$7.8=\frac{u^{2}Sin\left (2\times 28 \right ) }{9.8}$

$7.8=\frac{u^{2}\times 0.829}{9.8}$

u = 9.6 m/s

Thus, the velocity of projection is 9.6 m/s.

A bowling ball encounters a 0.760 m vertical rise on the way back to the ball rack. Ignore frictional losses and assume the mass

Gre4nikov [31]

To solve this exercise we need the concept of Kinetic Energy and its respective change: Initial and final kinetic energy.

Let's start considering that the angular velocity is given by,

$\omega = \frac{v}{R}$

Where,

V = linear speed

R = the radius

In the case of the initial kinetic energy:

$KE_i=\frac{1}{2} mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}I \omega^2$

Where I is the moment of inertia previously defined.

$KE_i = \frac{1}{2}(m)3.5^2 + \frac{1}{2}* (\frac{2}{5} m R^2) (\frac{3.5}{R})^2$

In the case of the final kinetic energy, we have to,

$KE_f= mgh+ \frac{1}{2} mv^2 + \frac{1}{2} I \omega^2$

$KE_f = m * 9.81 * 0.76 + \frac{1}{2} m v^2 + \frac{1}{2} (\frac{2}{5} m R^2) (\frac{v}{R})^2$

For conservation of Energy we have, that

$KE_f = KE_i$ , then (canceling the mass and the radius)

$\frac{1}{2} 3.5^2 + \frac{1}{2}(\frac{2}{5})(3.5)^2= 9.81 * 0.76 + \frac{1}{2} v^2 + \frac{1}{2} (\frac{2}{5}) (v)^2$

$8.575= 7.4556+ \frac{1}{2} v^2 + \frac{1}{2} (\frac{2}{5}) (v)^2$

$1.1194= \frac{1}{2}( v^2 + (\frac{2}{5}) (v)^2)$

$2.2388= (\frac{7}{5}) (v)^2$

$v=1.26m/s$
