A ball is thrown vertically upward with a

Physics
1 answer:
Veronika [31]3 years ago

Answer:

1) The maximum height reached is approximately 39.715 m

2) The time it takes the ball to reach the its highest point is approximately 2.85 s

Explanation:

1) The vertical velocity of the ball, u = 27.9 m/s

The acceleration due gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

The kinematic equation that gives the height, h, reached by the ball is given as follows;

v² = u² - 2·g·h

Where;

v = The final velocity of the ball = 0 m/s at the maximum height

h = The height reached by the ball = h_{max} at maximum height

Therefore, by substitution of the known values, we have;

v² = u² - 2·g·h

0² = 27.9² - 2 × 9.8 × h_{max}

2 × 9.8 × h_{max} = 27.9²

h_{max} = 27.9²/(2×9.8) ≈ 39.715

The maximum height reached = h_{max} ≈ 39.715 m

2) From the kinematic equation of motion, v = u - g·t, we have the time, t, it takes the ball to reach the maximum height given as follows

At maximum height, the final velocity, v = 0 m/s, therefore, we have;

0 = 27.9 - 9.8 × t

9.8 × t = 27.9

t = 27.9/9.8 ≈ 2.85

The time it takes the ball to reach the maximum height = t ≈ 2.85 seconds.

After an incandescent lamp is turned on, the temperature of its filament rapidly increases from room temperature to its operatin
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer: (1) The resistance increases and the current decreases.

Explanation:  

When the temperature of the filament increases, the vibrational energy of the constituent atoms increases which leads to increase in inter-atomic collision. Thus, the resistance would increase. The increases in resistance would obstruct the flow of charges more leading to decrease in the value of the current.

Hence, when the temperature of the filament increase, the resistance increases and current decreases.

How many ohms of resistance must be present in a circuit that has 240 volts and a current of 15 amps?
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

16 ohms

Explanation:

V= I ⋅ R

where,  V  is the net potential difference in the circuit,  I  is the current in the circuit and  R  is the net resistance of the circuit.  

In this case,  V = 240  volts,  I = 15  amperes.

240 = 15 ⋅ R  

⇒ R = 240/ 15 = 16  ohms
