4 0

Answer:

12.5

Explanation:

If the half life is 25 days then in 50 days it will half twice

50/2=25

25/2=12.5

Lightning flashes one mile (1609 m) away from you. How much time does it take the light to travel that distance?

hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

$t=5.36\times 10^{-6}\ s$

Explanation:

Given that,

Lightning flashes one mile (1609 m) away from you.

We need to find the time it take the light to travel that distance. Let the time be t. We know that,

speed = distance/time

$t=\dfrac{d}{v}\\\\t=\dfrac{1609}{3\cdot10^{8}}\\\\=5.36\times 10^{-6}\ s$

So, the required time is $5.36\times 10^{-6}\ s$

Two balls of clay, with masses M1 = 0.49 kg and M2 = 0.47 kg, are thrown at each other and stick when they collide. Mass 1 has a

malfutka [58]

Answer:

a) $p_i=1.568\hat{i}+0.752 \hat{j}$

b) $v_{fx}=1.668\ m.s^{-1}$

c) $v_{fy}=0.7999\ m.s^{-1}$

Explanation:

Given masses:

$m_1=0.49\ kg$

$m_2=0.47\ kg$

Velocity of mass 1, $v_1=3.2 \hat{i}\ m.s^{-1}$

Velocity of mass 2, $v_2=1.6 \hat{j}\ m.s^{-1}$

Initial momentum:

$p_i=m_1.v_1+m_2.v_2$

$p_i=0.49\times 3.2 \hat{i}+0.47\times 1.6 \hat{j}$

$p_i=1.568\hat{i}+0.752 \hat{j}$

magnitude of initial momentum:

$p_i=\sqrt{1.568^2+0.752 ^2}$

$p_i=1.739\ kg.m.s^{-1}$

From the conservation of momentum:

$p_f=p_i$

$m_f.v_f=1.739$

$v_f=\frac{1.739}{0.49+0.47}$

$v_f=1.85\ m.s^{-1}$ is the magnitude of final velocity.

Direction of final velocity will be in the direction of momentum:

$tan\theta=\frac{0.752 }{1.568}$

$\theta=25.62^{\circ}$

$\therefore v_{fx}=1.85\ cos25.62^{\circ}$

$v_{fx}=1.668\ m.s^{-1}$

Vertical component of final velocity:

$v_{fy}=1.85\ sin 25.62^{\circ}$

$v_{fy}=0.7999\ m.s^{-1}$
