Alexandra drops an egg from 30 m above the ground to hit Vanessa on the head. If Vanessa stands 3.5 meters tall. How fast is the

egg moving when it strike her head? (Hint: Draw a picture and you will see why you have to consider her height and find the time first!)

This is problem of free falling objects, which can be solved using the formula:

V = sqrt(2gy)

Where v is the velocity upon impact

G is the acceleration due to gravity ( 9.81 m/s2)

Y is the height

Since Venessa is 3.5 m

Y = 30 -3.5 = 26.5 m

V = sqrt(2 (9.81 m/s2) ( 26.5 m))

<span>V = 22.8 m/s</span>

The width of the central maxima, formed from light of wavelength 575 nm behind a single slit that has a width of 115 μm, is 1.15
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

 L  = 1.15 m

Explanation:

The diffraction phenomenon is described by the equation

        a sin θ = m λ

Where a is the width of the slit, λ  the wavelength and m is an integer, the order of diffraction is left.

The diffraction measurements are made on a screen that is far from the slit, and the angles in the experiment are very small, let's use trigonometry

          tan θ = y / L

          tan θ = sint θ / cos θ≈ sin θ

We substitute in the first equation

           a (y / L) = m λ

The first maximum occurs for m = 1

The distance is measured from the center point of maximum, which coincides with the center of the slit, in this case the distance is the total width of the central maximum, so the distance (y) measured from the center is

         y = 1.15 / 2 = 0.575 cm

         y = 0.575 10⁻² m

Let's clear the distance to the screen (L)

       L = a y / λ  

Let's calculate

     L = 115 10⁻⁶  0.575 10⁻² / 575 10⁻⁹

     L  = 1.15 m

object P1 and P2 are in a straight line with the normal to a plane mirror.If P1 and P2 are 18m and 21m away from the mirror. Cal
VARVARA [1.3K]

The distance between object P1 and its image formed is determined as 36 m.

<h3>Distance of the image</h3>

The distance of the image formed by object P1 is calculated as follows;

In a plane mirror; object distance = image distance

image distance of P1 = 18 m

distance between object and image = 18m + 18 m = 36 m

Thus, the distance between object P1 and its image formed is determined as 36 m.

Which resultant force is NOT possible if 50 N force and a 60 N force act concurrently?
Sergio [31]

Answer:

The options are not shown, so i will answer in a general way.

Suppose the case where the forces act in opposite directions, then we need to subtract the forces, and we know that the magnitude of the resultant force will be:

60N - 50N = 10N

Now, suppose the case where both forces act in the exact same direction, in that case, we will add the forces to get:

60N + 50N = 110N

Then the only range of forces that we can get in this system, are the forces such:

10N ≤ F ≤ 110N

Any resultant force outside that range is not possible in this situation.
