The longest banana split ever made was 7.32 km long (obviously they used more than one banana). If an archer were to shoot an ar

row horizontally from the top of Mount Everest, which is 29 029 ft above sea level, would the arrow’s horizontal displacement be larger than the banana split? Assume that the maximum firing speed of the arrow is 100.0 m/s, that there is no air resistance, and that the arrow lands at sea level.

Answer:

The horizontal displacement of the arrow is not larger than the banana split.

Explanation:

Using y - y₀ = ut - 1/2gt², we find the time it takes the arrow to drop to the ground from the top of mount Everest.

So, y₀ = elevation of Mount Everest = 29029 ft = 29029 × 1ft = 29029 × 0.3048 m = 8848.04 m, y = final position of arrow = 0 m, u = initial vertical speed of arrow = 0 m/s, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and t = time taken for arrow to fall to the ground.

y - y₀ = ut - 1/2gt²

0 - y₀ = 0 × t - 1/2gt²

-y₀ = -1/2gt²

t² = 2y₀/g

t = √(2y₀/g)

Substituting the values of the variables, we have

t = √(2y₀/g)

= √(2 × 8848.04 m/9.8 m/s²)

= √(17696.08 m/9.8 m/s²)

= √(1805.72 s²)

= 42.5 s

The horizontal distance the arrow moves is thus d = vt where v = maximum firing speed of arrow = 100 m/s and t = 42.5 s

So, d = vt

= 100 m/s × 42.5 s

= 4250 m

= 4.25 km

Since d = 4.25 km < 7.32 km, the horizontal displacement of the arrow is not larger than the banana split.

Charra [1.4K]

The right hand rule to find the direction of the magnetic field for a falling bar is:

  • The charge is positive the magnetic field is outgoing, horizontally and towards us.
  • The charge of the bar is negative, the magnetic field is incoming, that is horizontal away from us.

The magnetic force is given by the vector product of the velocity and the magnetic field.

        F = q v x B

Where the bolds indicate vectors, F is the force, q the charge on the particle, v the velocity and B the magnetic field.

In the vector product, the vectors are perpendicular, which is why the right-hand rule has been established, see attached:

  • The thumb points in the direction of speed.
  • Fingers extended in the direction of the magnetic field.
  • The palm is in the direction of the force if the charge is positive and in the opposite direction if the charge is negative.

They indicate that the bar is dropped, therefore its speed is vertical and downwards, it moves to the left therefore this is the direction of the force, we use the right hand rule, the magnetic field must be horizontal, we have two possibilities:

  • If the charge is positive the magnetic field is outgoing, horizontally and towards us.
  • If the charge of the bar is negative, the magnetic field is incoming, that is, horizontal away from us

In conclusion using the right hand rule we can find the direction of the magnetic field for a falling bar is:

  • The charge of the bar is negative, the magnetic field is incoming, that is horizontal away from us.
  • The charge is positive the magnetic field is outgoing, horizontally and towards us.

What happens to the gravitational attraction between 2 objects
amm1812

Answer:

It decreases.

Explanation:

between the two interacting objects, more separation distance will result in weaker gravitational forces. So as two objects are separated from each other, the force of gravitational attraction between them also decreases
