Answer: $V_{f}=2.96m/s$

Firstly we have to draw the Free Body Diagram (FBD) as shown in the figure attached.

Where the weight $w$ of the block has an x-component and y-component:

$w_{x}=wsin(\theta)$ (1)

$w_{y}=wcos(\theta)$ (2)

As well as the Normal Force $N$ :

$N_{x}=Nsin(\theta)$ (3)

$N_{y}=Ncos(\theta)$ (4)

In addition, we know $N=w$ , then $\sum F_{y}=0$

In the X-component:

$\sum F_{x}=m.a$

$m.a=w_{x}$ (5)

Substituting (1) in (5):

$wsin(\theta)=m.a$ (6)

In addition, we know $w=m.g$ , where $m$ is the mass of the block and $g$ the gravity acceleration, which is equal to $9.8m/{s}^{2}$

So:

$m.g.sin(\theta)=m.a$ (7)

$a=g.sin(\theta)$ (8)

$a=5.88m/{s}^{2}$ (9) >>>>This is the acceleration of the block

On the other hand, we have the following equation that expresses a relation between the distance $d$ with the acceleration $a$ and time $t$ :

$d=\frac{1}{2}a{t}^{2}$ (10)

We already know the value of $d$ and calculated $a$ , we have to find $t$ :

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2d}{a}}$ (11)

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2(0.75m)}{5.88m/{s}^{2}}}$ (12)

$t=0.50s$ (13) >>>This is the time it takes to the block to go from the initial velocity $V_{o}$ to its final velocity $V_{f}$

If the acceleration is the variation of the velocity in time, we can use the following equation to find $V_{f}$ :

$V_{f}-V_{o}=a.t$ (13)

If $V_{o}=0$

$V_{f}=a.t$ (14)

$V_{f}=(5.88m/{s}^{2})(0.50s)$ (15)

Finally we get the value of the Final Velocity of the block:

$V_{f}=2.96m/s$

List the parts of the electromagnetic spectrum from longest wavelength to shortest wavelength

Lilit [14]

The rays of the electromagnetic spectrum from shortest to longest wavelength are: radio waves, microwaves, infrared rays, optical rays, ultraviolet rays, X-rays, and gamma-rays.

EDIT: He has these backwards, the shortest wavelength is created by Gamma-Rays and the longest is Radiowaves.

 Remember- high energy = short wavelength.

During the middle of a family picnic, Barry Allen received a message that his friends Bruce and Hal

weeeeeb [17]

The kinematics of the uniform motion and the addition of vectors allow finding the results are:

The Barry's initial trajectory is 94.30 10³ m with n angles of θ = 138.8º

The return trajectory and speed are v = 785.9 m / s, with an angle of 41.2º to the South of the East

Vectors are quantities that have modulus and direction, so they must be added using vector algebra.

A simple method to perform this addition in the algebraic method which has several parts:

Vectors are decomposed into a coordinate system

The components are added

The resulting vector is constructed

Indicate that Barry's velocity is constant, let's find using the uniform motion thatthe distance traveled in ad case

v = $\frac{\Delta d}{t}$

Δd = v t

Where v is the average velocity, Δd the displacement and t the time

We look for the first distance traveled at speed v₁ = 600 m / s for a time

t₁ = 2 min = 120 s

Δd₁ = v₁ t₁

Δd₁ = 600 120

Δd₁ = 72 10³ m

Now we look for the second distance traveled for the velocity v₂ = 400 m/s

time t₂ = 1 min = 60 s

Δd₂ = v₂ t₂

Δd₂ = 400 60

Δd₂ = 24 103 m

In the attached we can see a diagram of the different Barry trajectories and the coordinate system for the decomposition,

We must be careful all the angles must be measured counterclockwise from the positive side of the axis ax (East)

Let's use trigonometry for each distance

Route 1

cos (180 -35) = $\frac{x_1}{\Delta d_1}$

sin 145 = $\frac{y_1}{\Delta d1}$

x₁ = Δd₁ cos 125

y₁ = Δd₁ sin 125

x₁ = 72 103 are 145 = -58.98 103 m

y₁ = 72 103 sin 155 = 41.30 10³ m

Route 2

cos (90+ 30) = $\frac{x_2}{\Delta d_2}$

sin (120) = $\frac{y_2}{\Delta d_2}$

x₂ = Δd₂ cos 120

y₂ = Δd₂ sin 120

x₂ = 24 103 cos 120 = -12 10³ m

y₂ = 24 103 sin 120 = 20,78 10³ m

The component of the resultant vector are

Rₓ = x₁ + x₂

R_y = y₁ + y₂

Rx = - (58.98 + 12) 10³ = -70.98 10³ m

Ry = (41.30 + 20.78) 10³ m = 62.08 10³ m

We construct the resulting vector

Let's use the Pythagoras' Theorem for the module

R = $\sqrt{R_x^2 +R_y^2}$

R = $\sqrt{70.98^2 + 62.08^2}$ 10³

R = 94.30 10³ m

We use trigonometry for the angle

tan θ ’= $\frac{R_y}{R_x}$

θ '= tan⁻¹ $\frac{R_y}{R_x}$

θ '= tan⁻¹ $\frac{62.08}{70.98}$

θ ’= 41.2º

Since the offset in the x axis is negative and the displacement in the y axis is positive, this vector is in the second quadrant, to be written with respect to the positive side of the x axis in a counterclockwise direction

θ = 180 - θ'

θ = 180 -41.2

θ = 138.8º

Finally, let's calculate the speed for the way back, since the total of the trajectory must be 5 min and on the outward trip I spend 3 min, for the return there is a time of t₃ = 2 min = 120 s.

The average speed of the trip should be

v = $\frac{\Delta R}{t_3}$
