Answer:

Explanation:

You have to declare which way is plus -- up or down. I will use down.

vi = - 2.85       The balloon is going up. That is the minus direction.

a = 9.81

d =   2.50 meters  distance in this case is from the object to the ground.

d = vi*t + 1/2 a t^2

-2.50 = -2.85*t + 1/2 * 9.81 * t^2

-2.50 = -2.85*t + 4.905 * t^2           transfer the left to the right.

-4.905 t^2 + 2.85*t + 2.50 = 0

Use the quadratic formula to solve for t.

It turns out that t = 1.06

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Photon is also a particle . Hence when two particles like electron and positron annihilate to get completely changed to photons , a minimum of two photons of equal and opposite momentum and energy are produced flying in opposite direction  to conserve momentum and energy . Each photon will have same energy equal to 511 keV . It is so to conserve momentum and energy. Initially total momentum was zero so finally too total momentum should be zero.

A uniform disk with a mass of 5.0 kg and diameter 30 cm rotates on a frictionless fixed axis through its center and perpendicula
igomit [66]

Answer:

Angular acceleration of the disk will be \alpha =10.714rad/sec^2

Explanation:

We have given mass of the disk m = 5 kg

Diameter of the disk d = 30 cm = 0.3 m

So radius r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{0.3}{2}=0.15m

Moment of inertia of disk is given by I=\frac{1}{2}mr^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 5\times 0.15^2=0.056kgm^2

Force is given by F=4 N

Torque is given as \tau =Fr=4\times 0.15=0.6N-m

We also know that torque is given by \tau =I\alpha

0.6=0.056\times \alpha

\alpha =10.714rad/sec^2

Light bulb 1 operates with a filament temperature of 3000 K, whereas light bulb 2 has a filament temperature of 2000 K. Both fil
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

A₁/A₂ = 0.44

Explanation:

The emissive power of the bulb is given by the formula:

P = σεAT⁴

where,

P = Emissive Power

σ = Stefan-Boltzman constant

ε = Emissivity

A = Surface Area

T = Absolute Temperature of Surface

<u>FOR BULB 1:</u>

Since, emissivity and emissive power are constant.

Therefore,

P = σεA₁T₁⁴   ----------- equation 1

where,

A₁ = Surface Area of Bulb 1

T₁ = Temperature of Bulb 1 = 3000 k

<u>FOR BULB 2:</u>

Since, emissivity and emissive power are constant.

Therefore,

P = σεA₂T₂⁴   ----------- equation 2

where,

A₂ = Surface Area of Bulb 2

T₂ = Temperature of Bulb 1 = 2000 k

Dividing equation 1 by equation 2, we get:

P/P = σεA₁T₁⁴/σεA₂T₂⁴

1 = A₁(3000)²/A₂(2000)²

A₁/A₂ = (2000)²/(3000)²

<u>A₁/A₂ = 0.44</u>

20. Wile E. pushes a 76-kg boulder off of the 90-m cliff in an attempt to hit the Roadrunner. What will the kinetic energy of th
KIM [24]

Answer:

67,032 J

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy, the kinetic energy of the boulder just before hitting the Roadrunner (at ground level) will be equal to the gravitational potential energy of the boulder at the top of the cliff, therefore:

K=U=mgh

where

m is the mass of the boulder

g is the acceleration of gravity

h is the height of the cliff

Here we have

m = 76 kg

g = 9.8 m/s^2

h = 90 m

Substituting,

U=(76)(9.8)(90)=67,032 J
