Answer:

v = 22.54m/s --- Velocity

h = 25.921m --- Distance

Explanation:

Given

u = 0m/s --- Initial velocity

Solving (a): Velocity after 2.3s

To do this, we use the first equation of motion

v = u + at

Where

t = 2.3s

a = g = 9.8m/s^2

So, the equation becomes:

v = 0 + 9.8 * 2.3

v = 0 + 22.54

v = 22.54m/s

Solving (b): Distance covered in 2.3s

We make use of:

h = ut + \frac{1}{2}gt^2

This gives:

h = 0 * 2.3 + \frac{1}{2}*9.8 * 2.3^2

h = \frac{1}{2}*9.8 * 5.29

h = 25.921m

Answer:

d = 421.83 m

Explanation:

It is given that,

Height, h = 396.9 m

Horizontal speed, v = 46.87 m/s

We need to find the distance traveled by the ball horizontally. Let t is the time taken by the ball. Using second equation of motion for vertical direction. So,

396.9=0\times t+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8 t^2\\\\t=9\ s

Now d is the distance covered by the cannonball. So,

d=vt\\\\d=46.87\times 9\\\\d=421.83\ m

Hence, this is the required solution.

Which of the following statements about electromagnetic radiation are TRUE? a. Wavelength and frequency are inversely proportion
Kobotan [32]

Answer: A) Wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional.

Explanation:

From the wave equation;

Velocity= frequency × wavelength

If the above equation is rearranged making the frequency the subject of formula, it would give;

Frequency= velocity/ wavelength.

From the above equation we see that frequency is inversely proportional to the wavelength. This means that for every increase in wavelength there would be a decrease in frequency, and for every increase in frequency there is a reduction in wavelength.

Why would it be desirable to use an energy resource that does not produce greenhouse gases ?
Dimas [21]

It be desirable to use an energy resource that does not produce greenhouse gases because it contribute to climate change .

Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Greenhouse gases are the toxic gases that contribute to the "greenhouse effect". Greenhouse gases have the ability to absorb and emit some of the outgoing energy that is radiated by the Earth's surface, eventually causing the heat to get accumulated in the "lower atmosphere". It is always beneficial to use Renewable Energy sources such as Wind, solar and water which gives no harm to the environment and climate with no greenhouse gas emissions.  

<u>For example:</u> If we have to generate electricity, there will be no greenhouse gas production at the beginning and a very less amount of production at the entire life cycle.

Suppose you had the same laser and diffraction grating from the previous question but now you had a flat detection screen. You w
kolezko [41]

Answer:

measuring the zero intensity point, we can deduce the movement of the screen.

The distance from the center of the pattern to the first zero is proportional to the distance to the screen,

Explanation:

The expression for the diffraction phenomenon is

           a sin θ = m λ

for the case of destructive interference. In general the detection screen is quite far from the grid, let's use trigonometry to find the angles

           tan θ = y / L

     

in these experiments the angles are small

          tan θ = sin θ / cos θ = sin θ

          sunt θ = y / L

we substitute

          a \frac{y}{L}= m  λ

           y = m L λ / a

therefore, by carefully measuring the zero intensity point, we can deduce the movement of the screen.

 

The distance from the center of the pattern to the first zero is proportional to the distance to the screen, so you can know where the displacement occurs, it should be clarified that these displacements are very small so the measurement system must be capable To measure quantities on the order of hundredths of a millimeter, a micrometer screw could be used.
