A block with a mass M = 4.85 kg is resting on a slide that has a curved surface. There is no friction. The speed of the block af

ter it has slid along the slide sufficiently far for its vertical drop to be 19.6 m is:__________a. 19.6 m/s b. 384 m/s c. 93 m/s d. 43.2 m/s e. The problem cannot be solved because the shape of the curved slide is not given.

Answer:

The correct option is a

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the block is $m = 4.84 \ kg$

The height of the vertical drop is $h = 19.6 \ m$

Generally from the law of energy conservation , the potential energy at the top of the slide is equal to the kinetic energy at the point after sliding this can be mathematically represented as

$PE = KE$

i.e $m * g * h = \frac{1}{2} * m * v^2$

=> $gh = 0.5 v^2$

=> $v = \sqrt{\frac{9.8 * 19.6}{0.5 } }$

=> $v = 19.6 \ m/s$

Bambi the young dear was distracted Buy butterfly and jumped into the road in front of the two vehicles as shown in the diagram

bagirrra123 [75]

Speed of car A is given as

$v_a = 70 mph$

now we need to convert it into SI units

1 miles = 1609 m

1 hour = 3600 s

now we have

$v_a = 70 *\frac{1609}{3600} = 31.3 m/s$

now its distance from Bambi is given as

$d_a = 350 m$

time taken by it to hit the Bambi

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

$t = \frac{350}{31.3}$

$t = 11.2 s$

Now other car is moving at speed 50 mph

so its speed in SI unit will be

$v_b = 50* \frac{1609}{3600}$

$v_b = 22.35 m/s$

now its distance from Bambi is given as

$d_b = 590 feet$

as we know that 1 feet = 0.3048 m

$d_b = 590*0.3048 = 179.83 m$

now the time to hit the other car is

$t_2 = \frac{179.83}{22.35}$

$t_b = 8.05 s$

So Car B will hit the Bambi first

An electron and an antielectron (positron) each have a rest energy of 0.511 MeV , or approximately 8.2×10−14 J . When an electro

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.

Two spacecraft are both 10 million kilometers from a star. The total power output of the star is 4 x 1025 W. Spacecraft 1 has a

Ksenya-84 [330]

The concept of power is given by the relationship between intensity and area, that is to say that power is defined as

$P = A*I$

Our values are given under the condition of,

$r_1 = 18m$

$r_2 = m$

The power is proportional to the Area, and in turn, we know that the Area of a circle is the product between $\pi$ times the radius squared, therefore the power is proportional to the radius squared.

$\text{Power} \propto r^2$

For both panels we would have to

$\frac{\text{Power by panel 1}}{\text{Power by panel 2}} = \frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2}$

$\frac{P_1}{P_2} = (\frac{18}{6})^2$

$\frac{P_1}{P_2} = 9$

Therefore the correct option is option C.9
