Marizza181 [45]

Using the pressure law (P1 x V1)/ T1 = (P2 x V2)/ T2 where P1= the initial pressure V1= initial volume T1= initial temperature and P2= the final pressure V2= the final volume T2 = the final temperature and temperature is always in kelvin

HELP!!! 30 POINTS+BRAINLIEST!!!!!QUICK!!

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

A:7.2 $ms^{-1}$

B:14.25 $ms^{-1}$

C:1.45 $sec$

D:10.3 $m$

E:2.9 $sec$

F:20.88 $m$

Explanation:

Let $v$ be the velocity and $\alpha$ be the angle between the velocity and ground.

Question A:

Horizontal component of velocity is given by $vcos(\alpha )$ .

So,horizontal component is $16\times cos(63)=16\times 0.45=7.2ms^{-1}$

Question B:

Vertical component of velocity is given by $vsin(\alpha )$ .

So,vertical component is $16\times sin(63)=16\times 0.89=14.25ms^{-1}$

Question C:

Time required is given by $\frac{\text{vertical component of velocity}}{g}}=\frac{14.25}{9.8}=1.45 seconds$

Question D:

Maximum height is given by $\frac{\text{vertical component of velocity}^{2}}{2g}}=\frac{203.06}{19.6}=10.3m$

Question E:

Time of flight is twice the time required to reach maximum height= $2\times 1.45=2.9 seconds$ .

Question F:

The distance between the player and ball after landing is called range and is given by $\text{horizontal component of velocity}\times \text{time of flight}=$ $7.2\times 2.9=20.88m$

The potential energy of two atoms in a diatomic molecule is approximated by U(r)=(a/r12)−(b/r6), where r is the spacing between

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

A) F(r) = [12a/(r^(13))] - [6b/(r^(7))]

ii) Graphs are attached

B) Equilibrium Distance = (2a/b)^(1/6)

C) Minimum Energy = b²/4a

D) a = 6.67 x 10^(-138) Jm^(12)

b = 6.41 x 10^(-78) Jm^(6)

Explanation:

I've attached the explanation of A-C alongside the graphs

D) i) From the question, we are to make r equal to the derivative of "r" we got when F(r) = 0 which was r = (2a/b)^(1/6)

Thus, since we are given equilibrium distance as: 1.13 x 10^(-10), hence;

(2a/b)^(1/6) = 1.13 x 10^(-10)m

So, (2a/b)= [1.13 x 10^(-10)]^(6)

a = (b/2)[1.13 x 10^(-10)]^(6)

From earlier, we saw that b²/4a = U(r)

Thus since U(r) = 1.54 x 10^(-18) from the question, b²/4a = 1.54 x 10^(-18)

Putting a = (b/2)[1.13 x 10^(-10)]^(6);

We have;

(b²) / [(4b/2)[1.13 x 10^(-10)]^(6)]] = 1.54 x 10^(-18)

b/2 = [1.13 x 10^(-10)]^(6)] x 1.54 x 10^(-18)

So, b = 6.41 x 10^(-78) Jm^(6)

ii) Putting (6.41 x 10^(-78))² for b in;

a = (b/2)[1.13 x 10^(-10)]^(6)

We have, a = (6.41 x 10^(-78))²/ ( 4 x 1.54 x 10^(-18)

So a = 6.67 x 10^(-138) Jm^(12)
