Answer: Maximum height

Explanation:

Suppose a projectile is thrown at an angle of $\theta$ with velocity u

As the projectile moves upward, its vertical component of velocity decreases due to gravity. While the horizontal component remains the same as there is no acceleration in the horizontal direction.

At maximum height vertical component of velocity is zero. At this instant horizontal component of velocity is perpendicular to the acceleration due to gravity. This can be explained with the diagram.

The bar graph shows energy data taken from a roller coaster at a theme park. Analyze the data and assess its validity. In 3–5 se

alexdok [17]

The data given in the bar graph is valid because it follows the law of conservation of energy, since the GPE at top of 2nd hill plus KE at top of 2nd hill equals KE at bottom of 1st hill.

<h3>What is law of conservation of energy?</h3>

The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another.

Based on the law of conservation of energy, kinetic energy of a roller coaster can be converted into potential energy of the roller coaster and vice versa.

ΔK.E = ΔP.E

where;

ΔK.E is change in kinetic energy
ΔP.E is change in potential energy

The kinetic energy of the coaster is greatest at the bottom of the hill, as the coaster moves upward, the kinetic energy decreases and will be converted into potential energy. The potential energy of the coaster increases as the coaster moves up the hill and will become maximum at the highest point of the hill.

From the given data;

GPE at top of 2nd hill + KE at top of 2nd hill = KE at bottom of 1st hill

At what position or positions on the x-axis is the electric field zero?

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

The electric field will be zero at x = ± ∞.

Explanation:

Suppose, A -2.0 nC charge and a +2.0 nC charge are located on the x-axis at x = -1.0 cm and x = +1.0 cm respectively.

We know that,

The electric field is

$E=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}$

The electric field vector due to charge one

$\vec{E_{1}}=\dfrac{kq_{1}}{r_{1}^2}(\hat{x})$

The electric field vector due to charge second

$\vec{E_{2}}=\dfrac{kq_{2}}{r_{2}^2}(-\hat{x})$

We need to calculate the electric field

Using formula of net electric field

$\vec{E}=\vec{E_{1}}+\vec{E_{2}}$

$\vec{E_{1}}+\vec{E_{2}}=0$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{kq_{1}}{r_{1}^2}(\hat{x})+\dfrac{kq_{2}}{r_{2}^2}(-\hat{x})=0$

$\dfrac{kq_{1}}{r_{1}^2}(\hat{x})=\dfrac{kq_{2}}{r_{2}^2}(\hat{x})$

$(\dfrac{r_{2}}{r_{1}})^2=\dfrac{q_{2}}{q_{1}}$

$\dfrac{r_{2}}{r_{1}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{q_{2}}{q_{1}}}$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{2.0+x}{x}=\pm\sqrt{\dfrac{2.0}{2.0}}$

$2.0+x=x$

If x = ∞, then the equation is be satisfied.

Hence, The electric field will be zero at x = ± ∞.

A thermistor is placed in a 100 °C environment and its resistance measured as 20,000 Ω. The material constant, β, for this therm

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

the thermistor temperature = $325.68 \ ^0 \ C$

Explanation:

Given that:

A thermistor is placed in a 100 °C environment and its resistance measured as 20,000 Ω.

i.e Temperature

$T_1 = 100^0C\\T_1 = (100+273)K\\\\T_1 = 373\ K$

Resistance of the thermistor $R_1 =$ 20,000 ohms

Material constant $\beta$ = 3650

Resistance of the thermistor $R_2$ = 500 ohms

Using the equation :

$R_1 = R_2 \ e^{\beta} (\frac{1}{T_1}- \frac{1}{T_2})$

$\frac{R_1}{ R_2} = \ e^{\beta} (\frac{1}{T_1}- \frac{1}{T_2})$

Taking log of both sides

$In \ \frac{R_1}{ R_2} = In \ \ e^{\beta} (\frac{1}{T_1}- \frac{1}{T_2})$

$In \ \frac{R_1}{ R_2} = {\beta} (\frac{1}{T_1}- \frac{1}{T_2})$

$\frac{ In \ \frac{R_1}{ R_2}}{ {\beta}} = (\frac{1}{T_1}- \frac{1}{T_2})$

$\frac{1}{T_2} = \frac{1}{T_1} - \frac{ In \ \frac{R_1}{ R_2}}{ {\beta}}$

${T_2} = \frac{\beta T_1}{\beta - In (\frac{R_1}{R_2})T}$

Replacing our values into the above equation :

${T_2} = \frac{3650*373}{3650 - In (\frac{20000}{500})373}$

${T_2} = \frac{1361450}{3650 - 3.6888*373}$

${T_2} = \frac{1361450}{3650 - 1375.92}$

${T_2} = \frac{1361450}{2274.08}$

${T_2} = 598.68 \ K$

${T_2} = 325.68 \ ^0 \ C$

Thus, the thermistor temperature = $325.68 \ ^0 \ C$
