Answer: Both cannonballs will hit the ground at the same time.
Explanation:
Suppose that a given object is on the air. The only force acting on the object (if we ignore air friction and such) will be the gravitational force.
then the acceleration equation is only on the vertical axis, and can be written as:
a(t) = -(9.8 m/s^2)
Now, to get the vertical velocity equation, we need to integrate over time.
v(t) = -(9.8 m/s^2)*t + v0
Where v0 is the initial velocity of the object in the vertical axis.
if the object is dropped (or it only has initial velocity on the horizontal axis) then v0 = 0m/s
and:
v(t) = -(9.8 m/s^2)*t
Now, if two objects are initially at the same height (both cannonballs start 1 m above the ground)
And both objects have the same vertical velocity, we can conclude that both objects will hit the ground at the same time.
You can notice that the fact that one ball is fired horizontally and the other is only dropped does not affect this, because we only analyze the vertical problem, not the horizontal one. (This is something useful to remember, we can separate the vertical and horizontal movement in these type of problems)
Answer:
λ = 6.602 x 10^(-7) m
Explanation:
In a double-slit interference experiment, the distance y of the maximum of order m from the center of the observed interference pattern on the screen is given as ;
y = mλD/d
Where;
D is the distance of the screen from the slits = 6.2 m
d is the distance between the two slits = 0.046 mm = 0.046 x 10^(-3) m
The fringes on the screen are 8.9 cm = 0.089 m apart from each other, this means that the first maximum (m=1) is located at y = 0.089 m from the center of the pattern.
Therefore, from the previous formula we can find the wavelength of the light:
y = mλD/d
So, λ = dy/mD
Thus,
λ = (0.046 x 10^(-3) x 0.089)/(1 x 6.2)
λ = 6.602 x 10^(-7) m
Answer:
Current will decrease.
Explanation:
When we increase the number of stepping in transformer, the voltage will increase as its is directly proportional to the number of turn of stepping. Thus as the voltage will increase, current will decrease. As per the equation of ideal transformer, E1 / E2 = I2 / I1
E1 and E2 are the voltages in primary and secondary winding and I1 and I2 are the current.
As the number of turns will be increased more inevitable losses will be generated that dissipates heat thus warming the primary.
Though the conservation of energy is obeyed but losses occur in this scenario hence step-up transformers cannot be used to create free energy.
The seat belt is applying a force in the opposite direction.
